Aurora India DAO
Hello @ell @Alex_J, We would like to introduce ourselves and our DAO
Proposal Overview
Crypto ownership has been steadily increasing since Nov 2021. It has jumped from 14.7% to 30% in April 2022. India doubles the crypto ownership rate compared to the global average of 15% and India is a country with a population of 1.3 billion people, just contributes 3-4% of the global cryptocurrency market. This opens the door to multiple opportunities to grow in various web3 verticals.
After attending a few of the major IRL events in India, we came to notice that majorly 70% of the Indian crypto users have been pushed to Ethereum and Solidity. But because of Ethereum’s unreliability and scalability issues, people tend to move to Polygon.
Aurora is a scaling model to Near, similar to what Polygon is for Ethereum. It makes Near scalable with cheaper and faster transactions. Most of the web3 developers in India are much more experienced in Solidity than rust, giving Aurora India DAO ample opportunity to sustain and onboard multiple projects on to Aurora from India.
Aurora India’s DAO vision is to:
Educate - Spread awareness among the developers about scalability solutions under Aurora Ecosystem. The goal is to make it easier for developers to build scalable applications.
Onboard - The vision is to expand the reach of Aurora to the Indian Developer Community to spread awareness about scalability solutions so developers can build DApps with Aurora Ecosystem.
Experiment- Take initiatives to onboard and experiment with web3, crypto, dApps, and other various projects on Aurora.
What do we aim to do?
Introducing Aurora to the Indian developer community, web3 influencers, and mass audience to educate and spread awareness among the developers about scalability solutions for Near Protocol through Aurora Ecosystem. India has the highest crypto adoption rate, opening the doors to greater opportunities for organic growth. Aurora India DAO will introduce and bring more users from the huge Indian Crypto community into the Aurora ecosystem through new initiates for Web3, Defi, NFTs, Dapps, and more.
-
Design new SOPs and partnerships inside the ecosystem to assist in the onboarding of new users and promote their participation
-
Telegram and Discord Channels for a broader reach in the Indian crypto community.
-
Youtube Channel, Medium articles, Reddit discussion, and getting more upvotes and engagement.
-
Host online voice and video events
-
