Context of the Proposal The recent dissolution of the AMI Bounty program has left us hanging on the crossroads. We were in the midst of gaining momentum and reaching a wider audience when our funding was suddenly cut off. This has put us in a difficult position, as stopping now would mean losing the progress we've made, wasting time and resources, and potentially diminishing the impact we've had on the Polkadot community. While our initial proposal to the AMI bounty was for 3 milestones, we only received funds for half of the <a title="first milestone" href="https://polkadot.dotreasury.com/#/child-bounties/1485" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first milestone</a>. The remaining funds for the first milestone as well as the second milestone were based on our performance of the first milestone. We had great success with the first milestone
ne going from the expected 10K views to 60K views and over 300 followers. Here is the milestone report we submitted for the next phase of funding, but unfortunately the bounty was in the process of dissolution.
We kept working on the second milestone using our own funds to keep this momentum going and it has shown exceptional results. We have 223K views and over 600 followers within a span of 3 months. To continue our work and build upon the success of our first milestone, we are seeking funding through the Polkadot Treasury. This support is crucial to maintain and expand our efforts to educate and engage the community through high-quality, daily infographics and other educational content.
Our aim is to continue our campaign to increase awareness and understanding of the Polkadot ecosystem. We are looking for retroactive and future support for our upcoming milestones. Over the next four months, we will produce daily infographics, curated articles, and regular updates on governance and parachains. Our goal is to provide and promote engaging content that simplifies complex Polkadot updates, encourages community participation in governance, and highlights the performance and robustness of the network. <img src="https://i.ibb.co/yQ3NQn5/dotgraphic1-first-milestone.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="325" />
