active
Description

https://polkadot.subsquare.io/referenda/1560

EasyA, a Web3 education app, has successfully completed Milestone 2 in their #360DaysOfPolkadot campaign, which aimed to educate and engage developers in the Polkadot ecosystem. They partnered with Parity and Web3 Foundation to update Polkadot content in their app and hosted hackathons at Harvard and London. The campaign inspired an a16z-backed startup, Axal, to build on Polkadot. Key highlights include:

  • Over 1 million users on the EasyA app
  • 700 developers participated in hackathons
  • 126 projects were launched
  • 137,000 developers started the in-app crash course
  • Social media impressions reached over 14 million

The campaign also met or exceeded all key performance indicators, including the number of developers starting and completing the crash course, hackathon attendees, and hackathon projects. EasyA is now focusing on supporting developers to continue building on Polkadot and is working with the ecosystem to set up Polkadot Fast-Grants for funding.

I have doubt about numbers in this proposal. How 1 million users and 126 projects are measured and how many of them can be active in polkadot?

Supportive as this is a continuing milestone, and the benefit of the proposal is awarness among young developers. Ultimately it's important not just to have views in the app or attendees at the hackathons, but onchain metrics like contracts deployed, txs, accounts, and teams that deploy to prod on Hub and build communities and businesses.

They are very effective at what they do and I 100% support this. I want to point out that witnessing how they do things they are moving forward the whole industry. On the other hand I feel Polkadot should be supporting them with more in the ground people/judges/visionaries to help hackathon peeps choose Polkadot to Hack/launch their ventures.

The team has demonstrated strong execution, real traction, and the ability to attract top-tier builders to Polkadot. Let's keep working.

EasyA is a team that gives me a lot of confidence given the hard work they have been doing, however, I am also concerned with the numbers they are showing. I understand that the 126 projects shown are hackathon projects, which means that not many of these end up making it to production, however, the truth is that I have not come to visualize any of these projects getting out of there for the ecosystem in general.
