Tre Viet - VN support channel

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

Tre Viet channel is the place to update information

• Up to date information regarding Cardano and projects on the Cardano platform
• Analyze and evaluate information about potential projects and share them with the community
• Discuss Cardano and projects on the Cardano platform

The Tre Viet canal is a place for technical assistance

• Wallets, Decentralized exchanges
• Show how to take steps to participate in projects or get rewards from projects

Tre Viet channel is the place to share:

• Experience in investing in projects on the Cardano platform
• Security Knowledge

Tre Viet Channel provides free tools to the community:

• The bot fluctuates the balance of the wallet
• Bot look up information about the price of tokens, ISPO programs
• ADA price volatility bot
• Bot reports fluctuations of the Exchange wallets, whale wallets

We will also build a website to aggregate information of each project, making it easy for users to search and look up information.

[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.

• The Tre Viet Channel helps to grow the Cardano community in Vietnam, by giving active support to the community, helping to remove technical barriers for newbies.
• By focusing on projects on the Cardano platform, Tre Viet channel helps develop the Cardano community in terms of quality. There is more and more valuable sharing and analysis on the channel.
• We will build a website to aggregate information about projects and other valuable shares such as wallet and security, for easy search by community.
• Tre Viet channel is trusted by the community, so more and more donations are received from the community (total amount of ADA donated to Tre Viet wallet: 666 ADA)

[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?

Challenge: compete with other information channels like Facebook or other Telegram or Discord groups.

Solution: Tre Viet Channel provides more quality information, closer to the community, led by the self-research team, with a team of community care workers continuously supporting, giving prompt and timely feedback..

Challenge: channel spam bot, user giving untested information

Solution: the team of admin and moderators regularly administer and remove spam information, information not related to Cardano and projects on the Cardano platform. All information posted on the Telegram channel should be clearly analyzed.

Challenge: Due to the nature of Telegram, the amount of messages will be very much, important information may be difficult to find. The community may miss important information because they cannot read all the messages.

Solution: Build a website to synthesize important information. Everybody can easily check the important information of projects.
