Please Note: The link YT links provided are a sample white board video I created for Gods of Block DAO. All videos I make will be in a similar style but with a Telugu audio.

1. White board videos (video scribe) starting from the basics of blockchain, crypto and NFTs w/ a focus on Cardano.

- Two videos per week

- Covering entry level topics like creating a wallet, staking, transferring and receiving ADA, buying crypto on centralized and decentralized exchanges etc.

- Topics covering the philosophy of blockchain tech and the overall advantages of it.

- All videos in Telugu for the local population of Telangana & Costal Andhra

PS: The videos will be modeled in the style of the famous 'whiteboard crypto' Youtube videos.

Below is a link to whiteboard crypto channel:

https://www.youtube.com/c/WhiteboardCrypto?app=desktop

1. Educating local population about blockchain tech and Cardano in particular

2. Bringing in more wallets from populations without access to crypto education

3.Opening up opportunities for the local population to create passive income opportunities through staking.

1. Bringing eyeballs to the content: Creating catchy titles that bring in content interaction, Google & YT ads, website and feedback forms.

Provide the videos to educational institutions to add to their curriculum.

2. Entertainment value: Keep the videos short, snappy and to the point with a call to action by the end.

[AUDITABILITY]

The progress will be measured in:

- Content interactions & subscribers on YouTube

This can be tracked through YouTube analytics.

- Website interactions

Can be tracked by setting up website analytics

- Number of wallets being created by users

After every Cardano based video there will be call to action and the viewers will be able to fill a google form to let us know if they faced any issues. This will not just serve as a feedback tracker but also as a way to track number of people being introduced into the ecosystem.

- Schools, Educational Institutions & Adult Education Help Centers :

I have worked in the field of Education & Deign for about 5 years. I will be writing to schools to provide them with the content for free. The number of educational institutions adopting the videos will be another way of measuring progress.

Success for this project would be 1-50k subscribers and 1-10k new Cardano wallets being created.

May:

100-500 Subscribers

June:

500-1000 Subscribers, 50-100 Wallets Created

July:

1000+ Subscribers, 100-500 Wallets Created

Note: Since the content will stay on You Tube and on the website for the rest of year, content interactions and wallet creation will continue through the year.

Summary

Oct 23rd: Report Card In the last report we mentioned a pivot in the project to reach our impact goals. This report was submitted on Aug 24th, 2022. We’d like to list the key milestones in the period of two months: In the process of implementing a system with Konma where we can work together to funnel students from Indian schools and colleges into catalyst. The training will be taken care of by Cardano Whiteboard Video team. Another funnel we created was the South Asian Town Hall. The first South Asian Town Hall happened this week and starting next week, we’ll be making announcements for blockchain education and PA training starting next week. A video explanation for Catalyst and call to explore the PA training will be posted on the Mana Cardano youtube channel in the next 4-5 days. New Impact Goals: Train 5-15 PAs Provide personalised support on Discord. (A server needs to be created or we need to find another solution for community management) Make the PA funnel from South Asian Town Hall permanent.
