A Passion for Regional Language

[chaman]

This brief retrospective aims to encourage JUP members to find their calling within the DAO.

Since my arrival in late “Jupuary”, I noticed that there were enough members with a high level of knowledge about Jupiter in the general Discord, while I observed more gaps in my regional channel. So I decided to dedicate myself to it, to be more useful to the cause, by maintaining a high standard for relaying and adapting information in French.

I was able to count on @Opacks ’infographics and the CAWG’s weekly review to help me disseminate important information about the Jupiverse in the French-speaking space, while also doing my part in welcoming new members to the Discord.

Then other people started to emerge in the French channel, building on the work already done, which allowed us to consider creating a French X page (@jupipotes) as well as a linktree for the community, and to refine the French documentation, notably by translating the entire glossary presented on the jup.eco site.

We then created a group with the most dedicated people to solidify the foundations of the development of the French-speaking network. This allowed us to forge deeper bonds and to develop a website without neglecting the welcoming and sharing of information in the Discord.

Today, a fourth person has joined us to develop a playful approach with quizzes and we are currently experimenting with a game based on the use of Jupiter Horizon on the X social network with other volunteers from the French-speaking community.

The objectives are multiple:

• to promote the involvement of new members by rewarding their efforts (for now we offer a POAP at the end of a weekly ranking)
• to promote education about the Jupiverse both inside and outside the regional spaces of the Jupiter Discord channel
• to provide more feedback to the Jupiter Horizon team by testing their product (through our weekly game) …

The inter-regional collective

Moreover, the dynamic of development around regional language initiatives has pushed us to get closer to representatives of other languages. First of all, out of love for language, I love speaking my language which is not English, and we shared this common point.

A parenthesis on my love of language:

Since my birth, I have spoken French, I grew up with French literature, which is part of my being. And for nothing in the world would I sacrifice this invaluable heritage. English is for me only a tool of cooperation that some call “globish” (global English) which is not the language of Shakespeare.
Thus I have a lot of admiration for those who love their language as much as I love mine, and I would give my life for them to be able to continue speaking theirs like an art, in a world sometimes too uniform that seeks to erase all differences.

It is out of a desire for integration that we want to trace within Jupiter the paths that allow individual singularities to realize their journey in their most familiar language. We believe that it is essential to make this possible, drawing inspiration from the “0-friction” ideal reflecting the achievements that Jupiter products achieve in terms of technology.

Our rapprochement has also allowed us to agree on a common basis of proposals that we present in this article and which at the same time constitute for us objectives to be achieved. Future of Jupiter and Importance of Regional Management

The motivation that comes from the fruit of our cooperation is something unique. What a joy to find a meeting point where we can come together to give each other the strength to make the progress necessary for the expansion of the Jupiverse.

As a member of JUP DAO, we are ready to cross all borders, and to envision multiple horizons where the expression of linguistic singularity is compatible with fulfillment in web 3.

Focus

Nevertheless, all the work that remains to be done is at the local level, and I invite all regional party members to put their efforts into gathering not only on social networks, but also in person, while having fun spreading our Jupiterian ideals in their language on their own scale.

[Proposal] Build/Connect Regional IRL chapters to grow and support Crypto together

After staying in crypto, sometimes it gets too isolated. This is why one of the reasons I love about crypto and projects are the connections we make first from NFT/discord/Twitter communities, then to IRL meetups which unfortunately can get overwhelming and uncomfortable if done randomly. Who wants to go to IRL meetups filled with suits, VCs or those with too many agendas and not enough vibes and doing things together to build an IRL community to connect with like-minded and curious crypto comm…

Draft Proposal for Bi-Weekly Jupiverse IRL Meetups

[6646d339fd00161608f3849d_tallstudycat] Objective: Our ultimate goal is to build a scalable model for Jupiverse IRL meetups that can be adopted globally . With the support and input from all cadets on Jupiverse, we can create a compelling proposal that showcases the potential impact of these events. Please see our section B for our microgrant proposal Trial Phase: The trial will run for 5 months in Nigeria, with tw…

In other words, even if we can easily communicate from one end of the Earth to the other at the speed of light, we love being able to meet in person, to reassure ourselves that anything is possible and that we must give ourselves the means to achieve it together.

Jupiter Regional

The Jupiverse is a collective of highly passionate community members, users, engineers, and working groups. So far, in the past 9 months since the $JUP airdrop, this community has massively stayed online. However, we want to nurture the Jupiverse and grow regional efforts around the world. If you’re someone who: Is passionate about Jupiter, Jupiverse, and the suite of products and initiatives we are tackling Enjoy local/regional/in person interaction, such as organizing events, booths, and d…

Thank you for reading this confidence, I hope it will give you inspiration just as reading @julianhzhu 's has given me.

On working in public and my reflections leading the Catdet WG

With the proposal for microgrants towards the formation of baby WGs passing, thought I would take the opportunity to share a few of my thoughts/learnings from the past couple of months leading the Catdets WG and also from working with various DAOs and communities. Hopefully this would be helpful to those who are trying to form their baby WGs and work with the community. Actually, most of the times I have no idea what I am doing. But I think it’s a combination of: having a vision of w…

Regional-based expansion is very important because people feel a different vibe when talking to someone in a more “local” fashion. The value of having a shared language and culture is immense especially when dealing with complex things like cryptocurrencies.

Let’s get this initiative off the ground and more boots on the ground to talk about crypto and web3 in general.

[Heretik23_PunK]

This is a fantastic summary of the efforts you and your team have put into building a thriving French-speaking community within the JUP DAO. It’s inspiring to see your passion for your language and culture driving this initiative.

Your commitment to fostering a welcoming environment for new members, translating important information, and developing engaging resources is commendable. The focus on promoting education about the Jupiverse through quizzes and games is a great way to make learning fun and accessible.

The inter-regional collaboration is also incredibly important. It’s a powerful message to see language communities coming together to build a more inclusive and diverse web3 ecosystem. Your dedication to maintaining your linguistic heritage while embracing the global potential of web3 is truly admirable.

I am confident that the French-speaking community, with your continued efforts, will play a vital role in the future of the JUP DAO. Your efforts are a testament to the power of community, collaboration, and passion. Keep up the great work!

[NYSoul]

Agree and its nice to connect with like minded people few times a year.

[orhange]

I admire you so much, brother. IMO, I see the immense value you’re bringing to our beloved Jupiverse. The very first time your team spoke about this at CWG office hours, I was like, “Wow! This is going to give Jupiter so much more reach!” Jupiter is a wonderful ecosystem and deserves to be quickly understood by as many people as possible.

As you mentioned in your retrospective, it’s essential for regional members to not only connect online but also gather in person. Balancing virtual and real-life community building is crucial, and I truly believe the goal of creating a scalable model for in-person Jupiverse meetups will foster deeper connections. It will help ensure that everyone can contribute to the DAO’s growth while celebrating their linguistic and cultural identities. Keep pushing, Chaman, you’re building something amazing!

I wholeheartedly agree - we are very fortunate to have him in the community!
He’s also helped inspire many Catdets from different regions to share information in their own native tongues, as he wrote above - it’s been truly inspiring to see!
