**Proposal**:

A Simplified Thread on Twitter about Kusama. The thread will be a basic overview for beginners.

**Why Is This Needed?**

Kusama can be extremely overwhelming, especially for new users outside DOT/KUSAMA. 

This will save them time understanding Kusama and what it is attempting to accomplish.

**How Much Time Will Be Spent Writing This Thread? (Roughly)**

- Research: 20 Hours?
- Creating Custom Diagrams & Material: 4 Hours?
- Writing Twitter Thread: 3 Hours?

- Total Time: ~30 Hours

**How Much Compensation Is Being Requested?**

Since the estimate is 30 hours of work, the requested amount for this proposal is **0 KSM**. This is not a typo. **ZERO KSM**. 

(For the proposal I had to type in a value greater than 0, so I typed in 0.0001 KSM. The Beneficiary Account is the Treasury.)

**What's The Catch?**

There is none.

**Why Post A Proposal Then?**

Wanted to create a proposal that was too good to reject.

**How Do We Know The Thread Will Be Professional And Not Trolling?**

Simplify DeFi aims to simplify and educate. This thread will be an ever-green resource to help the audience understand KSM and save time researching.

**Who The Heck.....Are You?**
