Taking Zcash to School 2.0

Decision text was not parsed from the minutes.

Taking Zcash to School 2.0 is a three-month outreach and adoption program designed to introduce Nigerian university students and young tech professionals to the privacy-preserving cryptocurrency Zcash (ZEC) through a coordinated series of educational and experiential events. They are asking for $9,500. ZCG members were asked for their feedback and vote. Gguy: I don’t really see that this amount of funding would provide a net benefit in this context so I reject. Artkor: My main reason for rejection is that this project seems very localized without a clear path to wider impact. I don’t believe that this represents enough return for the Zcash community. I reject. Wobzz: I agree with Artkor but additionally I don’t think this applicant has taken our feedback or the community’s input and they haven’t used that feedback to collaborate with the ecosystem. They’re just submitting multiple proposals requesting funding, without really engaging with the ecosystem, figuring out the best ways that they can contribute. So I reject this one. Zerodartz: I like that they have improved their proposal compared to previous ones and they have taken some feedback. Still, I think it’s not a perfect one. And since we have Zcash Nigeria community already active in that region, they should try to find ways to contribute with others even though I understand it’s not easy. I’m rejecting it right now. Jason: Artkor made the point that it’s overly localized and I agree with that very much. I don’t see something like this being effective and I also don’t think that he has, nor his organization has, demonstrated the required technical knowledge of Zcash to deliver on something like this, which I’ve mentioned to him in response to other proposals that he has submitted as well. The other thing is something Zerodartz mentioned, which is that we already funded Chidi in this region and I would like to continue supporting that initiative. I reject as well. Unanimous rejection.
