#52 Proposal to expand the Polkadot ecosystem with a book for blockchain beginners
Proponent: 12WarfbFeUm5L9Fs5zkTaQQH7L5hqaGPEgM9vQ1UFK8kiUSK
Date: 16th June 2021
Requested DOT: 829 DOT (in 3 installments @ $30.156/DOT using Subscan’s 30 day EMA) = ~$25,000
Short description: Although Ethereum is a much less complicated system, google ‘books on Ethereum’, then google ‘books on Polkadot’. You’ll notice that while there are more than 10 books on Ethereum, Polkadot (the network) has nothing. Of course, this is more a sign of age than anything, but I’m proposing a way to start our journey.
This proposal brings to light the lack of a holistic and easy-to-understand explanation of Polkadot in a book form. It outlines the importance of a book and proposes a solution to create one. But not just another book about blockchains but one focused on Polkadot and written from a totally non-technical perspective.

Please note the motion should be rejected as it is only voted by the Council - instead, and in harmony with the Standard Liquidity proposal Guidelines, this proposal should be voted by Council as an external motion, and voted by the community after for approval/rejection: this is why I have opened motion 505.
