I think this is more than fair! You already have brilliant insights into these products and have earned the respect of many across the Jup ecosystem. Given your strong networking skills, it’s safe to say your work will attract significant attention both within and beyond the community.
Hello! Thanks for the post. This seems closely related to what Defi Jup Jam was doing before. Have you tried reaching out to them for a collaboration?
This is very well put together and a great idea. I would love to see this come to fruition!
I think the Jupiter Product Academy is a brilliant idea that perfectly bridges the education gap while supporting Jupiter’s rapid growth! The focus on clear, step-by-step tutorials, engaging video content, and live support is a fantastic way to empower users and boost adoption, especially for lesser-known features like VA, DCA. The proposal is well-structured, the trial budget seems reasonable, and the team’s experience makes them perfectly suited to execute this at a top level!
Thank you legend! I also appreciate you breaking down the constructive feedback also
No i havemt but i was aware what they do and we are staying cleasr so there isnt an overlap.
Our focus will be product deep dives, how to’s for dummies ect. It will be more scheduled and structure, focusing on new and upcoming products. Unlike DJJ , we want to have post ready to go for the main jupiter accounts to publicise - so people can see it from an official source, rather than make our own twitter.
Exciting news. Maybe too early to mention here but personally I would love to see some high end short videos on each tutorial subject. I see some really good Jup video creators out there and am sure you guys know who they are and could ask them to have input. Hate to say it and you are probably already thinking this, but let’s not have the usual run through screen recording type of tutorial seen everywhere on YouTube if possible.
Also as this develops you could also include a tutorial for new members to join the catdets. Am aware that they have a lot of information on this already and doing a great job helping people. But a dedicated video would be helpful for them maybe.
Yes ofc bro! We plan to make this a premium product
Great ideas!
Also, sorry for the slight delay in the budget breakdown, guys. I’ll get it out asap. Lost a bunch of money while playing perps last night and it’s been rough. Just need a bit of time to recover. Appreciate the patience!
It seems that the DeFi Jup Jam twitter isn’t very active. We want to pursue something that delivers the community high quality content on practically a daily basis, even on days when there is no news on the product front.
There may be some overlap, but we hope to do something more broad and on a more regular scheduling.
Hello. Thanks for replying. They are very active and just finished the grant period of 3 months. If I’m not mistaken they will apply for the Trial WG or another Grant. Let me tag the members and lead. @mirea @Aro @WTP
Here are the samples of the product contents they created:
Also podcasts & deep dive with the Team:
It looks cool, but maybe some of these clickable links should be on the Jupiter platform.
Would be nice to have the various tutorials on the actual sites where the users are. Jupiter, ape, locks, voting etc. Both in written form and video format. Just my two cents worth.
Exactly right fam! Defs need to be two diff WG’s
Maybe I can contribute something here if I’m understanding the idea right. I got a small grant from Solana to promote crypto in my field, I’m going to do this by “small local meet ups”, onboarding, and so on. I’m into JUP, watched the Rally today, I guess I’m thinking of onboard the tech guys and a few keeners first, they’ll learn about Jupiter, I’d like for them to join the DAO and vote regularly. I’ll take pictures and so on of the fun. I heard you mention about @julianhzhu, in the rally and superteams earn, will look for that as I’m not super into twitter, you mentioned discord too, will try to get in touch there also. I’m sort of waiting for my organization’s accountant to comprehend the crypto thing and get that sorted and for me to sort out new communication systems like discord. Speak with you soon. Regards.
What organisation may I ask?
So how the super team thing works is
- You organise a Jupiter meetup - this can be discussion about Jupiter, a lunch with local cadets in your city, an information session ect.
- You apply for a small grant to cover cost - I.e. catering, food , posters ect (depends on what you’re doing)
- You post it over X and spread the news
Yep, you can ask, the application to Solana is called “High School Personal Finance: Exploring Cryptocurrency”. We had some bonus progress, we will get to present at our system’s area conference in Vancouver, I was going to present about this Solana and Jupiter stuff among other topics. It’s been extreme fun so far and everyone I’ve approached has been positive. Noted, about X. I can make us an account and get that going. Thanks for your reply for sure!
Great idea and proposal, funding is more than fair. Would suggest adding Jupiter Product Academy under categories on this site or like Jupiter Horizon did under it’s own domain. Like someone else mentioned I’m also not overly stimulated to use the twit/x platform (nor youtube for that matter) and a Telegram channel (@Workwithnature ) will be a great addition. Happy to Beta test/proof read some material if needed.
Legend bro! Tysm for your feedback and advice.
We want to use as many channels as we can possible, discord , twitter, reddit ect.
The main idea is target high foot traffic zones - JUP net will be a great place for this !
in general i like the idea and i think there is still a lot of potential to grow.
i will not talk about the things i like.
my main concern is about the overlapping tasks with existing Grantees/WGs.
Competition is healthy and important, everything has to stay very clear and aligned so that there are no misunderstandings and problems between the teams.
Oh snap, must be good if @WTP is part of it. From what I saw on Twitter, it seemed that the comms was a bit lacking, but I see that they do a bunch of other stuff as well.
Still, I feel like more content with some overlap should be fine. I think it would be cool if WGs can can work with each other and maybe streamline the comms process so that users can just go to a single place like a dedicated TG news channel and find all the important news for consolidated into one place. For a big organization like Jupiter that handles several hundred millions in funds, communications should be top priority. For example, just recently, we heard news about the buyback via a tweet from Siong’s personal Twitter account and not a single peep from the official Jupiter account until a lot later, and hundreds of people were swarming discord and still asking “wen buyback?” This needs to be fixed.
Also, @Mbolorman-
I apologize for being late/not posting a breakdown of the budget yet. I had some personal things that came up that I needed to take care of.
Furthermore, I’ve tried to come up with some breakdowns, but it’s quite difficult to give a detailed breakdown of the budget. You have our word that you no longer have to fund us past the trial period if we fail to deliver. For now, if you want a fully transparent answer, all I can say is that you guys have seen how hard Lochie works on his content. Also, I think Lochie forgot to upload an example article for a DeFi project I used to work at 2-3 years ago. Not to toot my own horn, but I’m quite a good article writer since I’ve had experience co-authoring scientific journals during my time as a medical research assistant. If you think we are worth investing 10k in over the 2 month period, then we will do our best to not let you down. We want you to hold us accountable if you think we aren’t up to your standards. We will also welcome any constructive criticism throughout the trial.
P.S. sorry about any typos or sentences that are out of place/don’t make sense. Wrote this in a hurry. Will edit in a bit if it needs editing.
