Jupiter Academy - Work Group Proposal
Jupiter moves fast—sometimes too fast for the community to keep up. With new product releases happening almost weekly, there’s a gap in clear, accessible guides for both existing and new Jupiter tools.
The Problem
• Jupiter’s dev team is focused on building, but communication of updates and tutorials often takes a backseat. They dont have the time or resources to breakdown every new update to the bone, more often then not, its not even tweeted by jupiters main twitter account!
• Features like limit orders on perps remain unknown to many, hence many people stay clear of them due to lack of education.
• The $JUP buyback wallet was only shared on a personal account, with no centralized announcement. This may have been an informal way of announcing a significant event.
The Solution: Jupiter Academy
A dedicated work group focused on educating the community through step-by-step tutorials on all Jupiter products—both current and future.
This lightens the load on the team, letting them focus on innovation, while we ensure users can actually understand and use these tools effectively.
The goals is for brand new products, updates or changes to be explained by us to keep the community educated!
How It Works
Comprehensive How-To Guides → Hosted on Jup.com & shared via Twitter, Discord & YouTube
Video Tutorials & Infographics → Easy-to-follow, “Crypto for Dummies” style
Live Support → Answering community questions, helping mods & directing users
Community-Driven Education → Raising awareness about underutilized tools like VA, DCA, Perps, and Trenches
Trial Period & Funding
8 week trial
Budget: $10K USDC
• $135 for Canva & design tools
• Socials & community-building events - such a live AMA and gatherings
Why This Matters
Right now, only a small % of fees come from tools like VA, DCA, and other Jupiter products—we believe this is because many users simply don’t understand them.
More fees = Bigger revenue
Bigger revenue = more 50% $JUP buy back - holders win. The team also wins.
A more educated community = stronger Jupiter ecosystem = higher protocol usage & adoption.
Key Milestones
First 3 months: Cover every Jupiter product:
• Staking + Voting
• Jupiter Ultra & Perps
• JLP & JUPSOL
• Jupiter Trenches
• How slippage works
• Crypto safety & avoiding honeypots
• Much, much more.
Scaling Over Time
Once all existing products are covered, we’ll ensure all new products come with a detailed guide upon launch. The idea is for this is to be sent to jupiters main twitter account to be posted as it goes live.
With Jupiter’s rapid pace of innovation, this work group is essential for onboarding new users & ensuring full product adoption.
Key Performance Indicators
We will measure the success of this work group through:
Engagement Metrics → Twitter impressions, YouTube tutorial views
Daily Fee Impact → Encouraging more users to actively engage with Jupiter tools
User Confidence → Making Jupiter the most user-friendly DeFi platform on Solana
