[DIS] Bitcoin Renegade CKB Media Campaign

Grant Proposal: 6-Month Community Media Campaign
Submitted by: Bitcoin Renegade

Proposal Overview
My name is Bitcoin Renegade, a crypto content creator, blockchain marketer, and long-time community advocate focused on educating audiences, driving adoption, and building strong communities within Web3.

Through my Bitcoin Renegade YouTube channel, I have consistently covered blockchain ecosystems through livestreams, educational content, interviews, and community engagement. My focus is creating authentic content that turns awareness into adoption and keeps communities engaged during key moments of ecosystem growth.

I am seeking funding for a 6-month livestream media campaign** designed to increase ecosystem visibility, educate the community, and drive adoption through consistent livestream content and social media engagement.

Campaign Deliverables
Over six months I will deliver:

*Livestream Content

  • 3 livestreams per month
  • 18 livestreams total
  • Distributed on YouTube and X
  • Coverage includes ecosystem updates, project spotlights, educational discussions, interviews, AMAs, ecosystem commentary, and community engagement

*Social Media Promotion

Why do you want to do this? (Why?)
I want to do this because strong ecosystems need strong media presence. Community education, awareness, and consistent conversation are major drivers of adoption in Web3. Even the best technology needs advocates who can communicate its value, explain developments, and keep the broader community engaged.

My goal is to create recurring livestream content that educates audiences, highlights ecosystem developments, and helps bring new users into the ecosystem while keeping current community members informed and excited about what is being built.

This campaign is about turning visibility into adoption and strengthening long-term ecosystem momentum.

Why are you the right person to do it? (Why you?)
I am the right person because I already actively do this work and have years of experience building communities and producing blockchain-focused content.

My qualifications include:

  • Founder of Bitcoin Renegade
  • Established YouTube creator and livestream host
  • Blockchain marketer and crypto investment strategist
  • Participant in the Community Catalyst Program for approximately 8 months
  • Led conferences and community events that helped drive adoption to Nervos
  • Experience hosting interviews, AMAs, livestreams, and ecosystem discussions
  • Strong relationships across Web3 communities and project founders
  • Ability to communicate technical blockchain developments in a way that is understandable and engaging

I bring both media experience and ecosystem knowledge, which positions me well to effectively represent and amplify important developments.

Why do you want to do it now? (Why now?)
Now is the ideal time because the ecosystem is entering an important growth phase.

With developments like Fiber Network, continued progress in RGB++, expanding Bitcoin Layer 2 infrastructure, cross-chain innovation, and growing builder activity, there is increasing momentum that deserves consistent coverage and public discussion.

This is exactly when strong media support matters most—during moments of ecosystem acceleration.

Consistent livestreams and community engagement can help:

  • Increase awareness of new developments
  • Educate users on new tools and infrastructure
  • Highlight builders and innovation
  • Bring in fresh attention from outside audiences
  • Strengthen community confidence during key growth periods

Momentum is building now, and this is the time to amplify it.

What is the budget you are applying for? Why is it reasonable? (Budget)
Funding Request: $500 per month for 6 months
Total Request: $3,000

This is a modest and reasonable budget considering the amount of consistent content being delivered.

For $500 monthly, I will provide:

  • 3 livestream broadcasts
  • 2+ supporting posts on X
  • Topic research and preparation
  • Scheduling and outreach for guests/interviews when applicable
  • Social promotion and community engagement
  • Consistent ecosystem coverage over a six-month period

At 18 livestreams + 12+ X posts, this provides efficient value compared to traditional marketing campaigns while offering direct community engagement and authentic ecosystem exposure.

How do you plan to do the work? (How?)
The work will be carried out through a consistent monthly content schedule over six months.

Each month I will:

  • Host 3 livestream broadcasts focused on ecosystem news, product updates, interviews, educational topics, and community discussions
  • Publish at least 2 supporting posts on X to promote broadcasts, highlight important developments, and engage the wider community
  • Research ecosystem developments and prepare discussion topics for each stream
  • Invite guests, builders, or community members when relevant to create valuable discussion
  • Engage directly with the community through livestream chat, comments, and social media discussion
  • Maintain consistent visibility around major ecosystem milestones, launches, and updates

This approach keeps content authentic, timely, and community-centered while creating a reliable media presence over the full six-month campaign.

Final Statement
I have already invested years into building community, educating audiences, and supporting ecosystem growth. This grant would allow me to dedicate structured time and consistent energy toward amplifying one of the most exciting growth periods in the ecosystem.

My goal is simple: increase awareness, strengthen community, and help drive adoption through consistent media presence.

I do not support. You just don’t have enough audience, sorry..

P.s. I think most of your followers already know everything about Nervos and follow the official channels, or they’re members of the community. So maybe develop/grow your profile first, and then.. ; )

Contrary to the above I do support this. I’ll take a content creator that cares about Nervos over an overpaid talking head every time. We’ve also had overpaid talking heads represent Nervos before and it went horribly and I’m sure it cost more than 3 grand. TBH there not a single high follower crypto influencer who’s worth paying 5 figure sums to. And none of them would give you what bitcoin renegade is offering for the price. Anyone willing to don costumes at conferences under the Nervos banner is alright by me.

The marketing concept is excellent, but success depends on having a professional marketer.

The goal of marketing is to reach the target audience and achieve strong viewership and engagement metrics.

The X platform already provides promoted posts and audience targeting tools, which can absolutely be utilized.

Regarding the proposal, it would be beneficial if the applicant included a report showing:

  • Current follower count across social platforms
  • Average views and engagement metrics
  • Previous campaign performance

In my opinion, if the proposal gets approved, the payments should also be tied to measurable performance.

For example:
The initial $500 payment for the first month could require reaching a minimum view threshold or engagement target. If those targets are not achieved, the remaining monthly payments could be paused or reconsidered.

The marketing steps themselves are good and well-structured, but ultimately they should produce meaningful results.

Best regards.

In a bear market my YouTube videos get from 200 to 500 views but my X account has a nice reach lately and gets about 400 to 1k views but we always have alot of likes to view ratios. New viewers from my community outside of CKB get to hear about the amazing steps forward with Nervos and build an amazing CKB community over the next 6 months to contribute on a high level

On the X platform, a $500 promotional budget can potentially generate anywhere between 40,000 to 120,000 views approximately.

It would be helpful to know what level of reach and engagement you expect to achieve within this budget range.

TikTok also has strong algorithms that can generate very large view counts as well.

The real value of any marketing campaign is reaching the largest possible number of targeted users while achieving meaningful engagement and viewership metrics.

One more note: I personally appreciate what you are doing for CKB and your genuine passion for the project. However, when we use the term “campaign,” the expectation is naturally much larger than reaching 200 or 1,000 views, as you mentioned your account currently achieves.

We are discussing these points to help achieve the best possible outcome. The concept of marketing itself is excellent and absolutely necessary, but even more important is ensuring that the method used is effective and impactful.

Best regards.

I was thinking of milestones as well but since it is a smaller amount I was just asking for the payment in one lump sum. I was in the Community Catalyst program and its more than just viewership its building a loyal amazing community and repping for Nervos in person and online. I plan to bring value, fun and technology to as many people as will listen. I hope to make you all proud!

In my opinion you have already shown love for CKB in your previous videos, I think you should be supported on this. I also think you should be open to ideas that makes the video last long in value.we need video that can be used as reference

3600 organic YouTube views in 6 months

12600 organic X views in 6 months for videos

6000 organic X views in 6 months for posts

Now I might not have the most followers or the biggest reach but my biggest asset is loyalty and trust as well as not the amount of views but the quality of viewers. I have already brought people into the CKB community to events and plan to have quality engagement on top of reaching the most wide audience possible. Thank you for your feedback and I hope this helps!

Also, aren’t there any rules for newly registered users? There are 4-5 here who were registered yesterday…

I would like to know more about that because I am curious if I should bring people in from social media or just let the vote happen here. I really was hoping to bring in more people to possibly not only vote for me but participate in future discussions.

You barely have any following. 500$ per month for videos that generate up to 500 views is extremely high. What is your reasoning behind this? I understand the need for marketing but how would videos that generate “200 to 500 views” as per your quote, would help here?

I don’t see any value that this will bring. I don’t see any targets mentioned, just “x amount of videos per month”. But when those videos bring almost no audience, what’s the point behind it?

Edit: I am asking a genuine question and my post gets flagged for “inappropriate language”. I suspect foul play here

Bringing new people here is not bad in itself. Whether their vote should have any weight in deciding on proposals is another question, there must be clear rules. @zz_tovarishch should know, he can explain the rules to us : )

Yeah, it’s a tricky one. You have your own community and I think it’s ok that they support you. At the end of the day, it’s the voting that counts. If the community lets unwanted (not saying yours is) proposals get voted in just because some new users pumped the proposal up to voting stage, then it’s our own fault.

But it’s new users like this who joined up, clicked on the heart and then left without spending even one minute looking at the forum, so they obviously have no interest in CKB itself. This is where it starts looking like manipulation which isn’t good for you, I’m not saying you have played a part in it, it’s just the look of it.

But as far as your proposal goes, I had a look at your latest livestream and it was pretty good.

It’s so hard to know whether there’s a real payback for this sort of thing, but I think the funding amount is fine for 18 livestreams, seems reasonable to me and it looks like you’ve been putting in some work for a while already so your not just popping up out of nowhere.

But you should edit your first post and put links to your social media and youtube accounts so everyone can have a look at what you are offering.
