Nuestro esfuerzo permanente de promoción, información y PR rinde frutos nuevamente, manteniendo a Dash Digital Cash y su rápido crecimiento en el país en el interés periodístico, no sólo de Venezuela, sino del mundo entero.

El mundo mantiene su interés sobre la realidad económica de nuestro país, y cómo las criptomonedas, especialmente Dash Digital Cash, constituyen una herramienta que ofrece soluciones a sus usuarios para protegerse de la hiperinflación, mal funcionamiento y dificultad de acceso a los canales tradicionales de pagos entre otras barreras económicas.

Dash Venezuela keeps working with a renewed and more efficient team to actively promote the adoption and responsible use of Dash in our country.

After two years working with Dash in Venezuela, it’s evident its viability for local merchants to legitimately face economic barriers such as hyperinflation, currency control, cash shortages, obsolete payment platforms and a destroyed manufacture industry.


In Venezuela, the use of blockchain technology and the adoption of Dash represents a great opportunity for growth. Our main goal is to spread the word about it through proven educational, marketing and PR initiatives.


We are proud of our achievements, confident of the quality of our work, and we are especially grateful for the trust that the DAO members have placed in us. However, during the last months, it’s been difficult to maintain our work without the funds from the treasury. Our activities have been reduced despite the efforts and the commitment of our team to maintain the educational and promotional initiatives of Dash Digital Cash.


We have used these months to reconfigure our team to make it more efficient and competitive so that we can implement the new strategies that will keep Dash at the forefront of people's minds and drive more organic transactions for the Network. But once again, without the treasury funds, we cannot continue operations.


The whole community knows the impact, notoriety and quality of our work:



More than 7K people have received detailed information on blockchain, Dash and a variety of topics that stimulate and give context to the crypto active ecosystem and relevant speakers at national and international level have been approached.

More than 6.8K new Wallets have been downloaded for real transactions.

More than 29,000 transactions have been generated.

Dash Venezuela has trained about 600 shops and entrepreneurs, who have been able to sell products and services exclusively in Dash in our conference cycle and eventually in their own stores.

More than 150 journalists have been trained in workshops targeted to them.

120 participation in national and international media including the most important national TV channels in the country.

Alliances have been established with universities, specialized media, professional associations, chambers of commerce and entrepreneurs from different economic sectors.


With your contribution, we will achieve our objective of 100 DASH that will help us:

  1. To continue with the basic training for individuals and entrepreneurs.

  2. To cover part of the logistics and basic maintenance expenses.

  3. To refund our team’s contribution that has taken us this far.

  4. To continue with our practical and theoretical training in Caracas: 3 conferences in groups of 100 people, 20 company trainings, and 30 entrepreneur trainings.
And with another 100 Dash for a final goal of 200 Dash, we will reactivate our activities at the national level by paying for a tour that will reach the media and take our workshops to the most important professional associations in the country.

This final goal will also allow us to continue operating in the long term to reduce operating costs and focus on the development of more effective DAO proposals with a lower cost.

This final goal will also allow us to continue operating in the long term to reduce operating costs and focus on the development of more effective DAO proposals with a lower cost.


With this crowdfunding, any member of the community, (MNs or not) will be able to contribute to the usability and adoption of Dash Venezuela.


It is now when Venezuelans anywhere in the world need the knowledge to trade in Dash-Digital Cash. Venezuela is having an important economic transformation and we are an active part of that. We believe in Dash as a platform and an ecosystem that contributes to the recovery of our country and we also believe and value your confidence in our work to achieve it.


SUPPORT OUR PROJECT BECAUSE IT’S MORE THAN AN OPPORTUNITY, IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO!

See below link to view our full last proposal: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FGpLSKfrv_dArcGWEXyiseWXK3f1VzeG/view


We are Dash Venezuela, led by Eugenia Alcalá; and now we aim to turbocharge Transactions in Venezuela by leveraging our unique ecosystem with Massive Reach tools, such as E-Learning, Dash Talk and Shop, Earned mass media, with a Cost-effective approach.
We will use our 7000+ DATABASE, Thousands of places to spend Dash and MILLIONS of views on national media channels.


WHY VOTE FOR DASH VENEZUELA?


  • Dash Venezuela built a powerful platform which gave Dash-Digital Cash the first place in the cryptocurrency landscape. We’re growing by leaps and bounds – With more than 7,000 people DIRECTLY trained in the basics of Dash Digital Cash, a network of communities in the whole country, 600 businesses recruited and trained by Dash Venezuela alone, which adds to over 2,000 registries in Discover Dash.

  • We identified and thoroughly understood objectives and interests of the MNOs for the growth of Dash network, and we agree on the need to increase organic transactions and adoption of Dash Digital Cash not only in Venezuela but elsewhere.
  • We thoroughly understand the ever-changing reality of the Venezuelan market with its constant economic, social and political upheavals. It’s this awareness that has made Dash Venezuela’s team so successful increasing Dash’s brand and adoption. Now we will focus on achieving transactions while allowing for the exchange of products and services in Venezuela.
  • Based on our successful experience as Dash Venezuela we are adjusting the growth formula for increasing Dash usage by employing a mix of: Edutainment + E-Learning + Direct communication with Venezuelans, in order to achieve transactions in Venezuela.

We’re careful monitoring the new regulations that could affect Dash Venezuela so we can make it prosper in the long term.


Here’s a description of our four-month-proposal and what will be delivered:


OUR DELIVERABLES AT THE END OF THIS PERIOD


595e36807a3611e98480cdc897d65c68



1) E-LEARNING: Spanish speaking market learn how to use and pay for Dash with our first two E-LEarning modules.

2) DASH TALK & SHOP: 6 activities with organic transactions at the most important retailers in Venezuela.

3) EMPOWER THE DASH BRAND: 20 Dash appearances in the most viewed mass media channels in the country.

4) WORD OF MOUTH: Social media alliances with influencers to spread the word of new tools.

5) VITAL FUNDING: Sustain our world leading operations.

6) WE DO WHAT WE SAY, AND SAY WHAT WE DO: You can trust us and count on us.


1) E-LEARNING: LEARN HOW TO PAY WITH DASH FROM ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.


Venezuela has the largest amount of businesses acceptingDigital Dash and other cryptos in the world! IT’S NOW the moment to leverage those users and increase the volume of transactions. How? An ongoing educational online program.



During phase one, we’ll teach basics about cryptocurrency– what’s Dash, digital cash and how to use it to buy products in the cheapest and fastest way possible from anywhere in the world.

This course would be free and the participants will receive a certificate of completion once they demonstrate that they have acquired the knowledge. Dash Venezuela will offer the necessary customer service.

Some of the questions we expect to answer are:

-How can we use Dash without the Internet?

-How to refill my Dash account on my cell phone?

-What platforms are ready to buy Dash and when is Fiat taking over?

-Where are the POS and how I can buy from them? How can I locate Dash businesses in the world?



Our goal is not only to educate but also to prove that Dash is an easy, convenient and safe form of payment.

We estimate that by September 2019 this educational platform will be a reality if this proposal is approved.




2) LEARN, PLAY AND SPREAD THE WORD: WORLDWIDE PROMOTION OF BUSINESSES IN THE DASH NETWORK.


Once the participants complete the online training, they’ll be encouraged to sign up for a contest – the second phase of the e-learning – where they’ll videotape a real-life transaction using Dash. This material will be used to spread the word in social media, bringing awareness and increasing the number of transactions. A digital marketing campaign will also be used in order to reach new prospects and those who already know Dash, such as migrants and small import-export businesses. We’ll also expand our alliances to the rest of Latin America by reaching the migrants in those countries – real people with a real need for Dash.


At the end of this proposal in September 2019, Dash Venezuela will have carried out an online marketing campaign to promote the e-learning + contest strategy to boost the use of Dash with real purchases from merchants accepting Dash around the world and especially in Venezuela. This will organize this knowledge into a system.


We expect to work alongside exchanges, wallets, Text services and many more organizations in other countries, including other Dash communities in LatAm and elsewhere in order to do joint events and make sure we can get the most sinergies.


3) EMPOWER THE DASH BRAND: WORLD CLASS PR AND MARKETING CAMPAIGNS.



c5206cd07a3611e9bf8283814d541f2e



With our world-class PR platform, we have excelled in positioning the Dash brand in the minds of Venezuelans and positioning our country as the first crypto nation of the world.



Our social (Twitter + Instagram + YouTube + Facebook) media gathers around 40K followers with our 2 brands, @dashcaracas and @dash_venezuela.Our mailing database sums +14K unique registrations.


Only in 2018 the spokespersons of Dash Venezuela attended more than 100 interviews, both national and international, including TV + Radio + Press + YouTube reaching and multiplying by thousands and thousands of people.



Our new proposal includes the development of content that shows the growth of the Dash brand in Venezuela and other countries and generates interest and confidence in its adoption and use, the sponsorship and executive production of

new specialized spaces, in addition to the permanent exposure effort in platforms that provides the greatest outreach with the least possible cost.



So, by the end of September 2019, Dash Venezuela will have at least 50 new brand exposure through podcasts, videos, interviews, advertisement, sponsorships, among others.



4) LEARN, PLAY AND WORD OF MOUTH: SOCIAL MEDIA PROMOTION OF BUSINESSES IN THE DASH NETWORK.


Once the participants complete the online training, they’ll be encouraged to sign up for a contest – the second phase of the e-learning – where they’ll videotape a real-life transaction using Dash. This material will be used to spread the word in social media, bringing awareness and increasing the number of transactions. A digital marketing campaign will also be used in order to reach new prospects and those who already know Dash, such as migrants and small import-export businesses. We’ll also expand our alliances to the rest of Latin America by reaching the migrants in those countries – real people with a real need for Dash.



At the end of this proposal in September 2019, Dash Venezuela will have carried out an online marketing campaign to promote the e-learning + contest strategy to boost the use of Dash with real purchases from merchants accepting Dash

around the world and especially in Venezuela. This will organize this knowledge into a system.



We expect to work alongside exchanges, wallets, Text services and many more organizations in other countries, including other Dash communities in LatAm and elsewhere in order to do joint events and make sure we can get the most synergies.


5) INVESTING TO MANAGE DASH OPERATIONS IN VENEZUELA


A physical space to receive them when they need it. This is the space we use for training, meetings with clients, strategy development meetings in order to achieve the objectives of the Dash Community in our country. We know that in Latin America and the world having a presence and a face gives confidence to customers and / or users. We offer the space and knowledge to keep providing advice to those interested in Dash Digital Cash. Clients such as large companies, professional associations, entrepreneurs and ordinary citizens, who are interested in receiving assistance on how to implement a real use of Dash for the benefit of a large number of people.


e699e9e07a3611e9bf8283814d541f2e



6) WE HONOR OUR COMMITMENTS. INTEGRITY AND TRANSPARENCY DEFINE US.


Siaskiboy could see the reach of Dash Digital Cash in Venezuela and what this movement represents for the global community. Our commitment to continue with this work even when the prices fell which caused that we did not get the funds from our approved proposals and with just 200 Dash, as a loan, we kept working and we could carry out conferences 10 and 11 of our cycle in 2018, this benefited the entire Dash Community.


We honor our commitment to transparency by delivering these last 40 Dash. Our gratitude to Siaskiboy and other members of the community who supported us financially will remain forever. THANK YOU!



This is a summary of the budget and the total request for this proposal:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GWRgIUCr-IB7cWOgnUtaRhDGF5K9NmVyPBmUy9lxszs/edit?usp=sharing




OUR SCOPE


We have stood out since 2017 by positioning the Dash brand in the minds of Venezuelans and despite this difficult market, we opened a door for thousands of merchants to start accepting Dash. We reached millions of users in Venezuela through weekly radio and TV interviews and dozens of articles from around the world.


This is a demonstration of the real steps we have taken for Dash. At the beginning of 2019, we know that there are still big things to do, we are prepared to face these challenges with discipline, studying and innovating solutions that will be carried out along with Dash Digital Cash.

After a successful number of achievements for more than a year and a half, we know what is possible to do with the right promotion and education strategies, but we want to achieve more. We want Dash to become a regular option for Venezuelans as a daily payment method.


We want to thank all members of MNOs and Dash Community for their support that has helped us lead this national and international movement that has built the bases to make Venezuela the first Dash Nation. Together we can achieve mass adoption in Venezuela. We are the faces and the hands to carry this out, and your support is very important.

Dear MNO, Please read and vote YES for this proposal.


Dear MNO, read and vote YES for this proposal.


Thank you!
 
This week it was confirmed that the Superintendency of Banks (Sudeban) and the Central Bank of Venezuela (BCV) will force the national financial system to dispense with agreements with Visa and Mastercard franchises and the Maestro system. They urged the banking actors (public and private) to develop an alternative "sovereign" payment system, in addition to stimulating the massification of the use of biometric identification and campaigns that promote the use of other services



They point out as justification that these measures were taken in response to U.S. sanctions and specifically in anticipation that the Visa franchises will be forced by the Trump administration to stop operating with national banks, in its intention to cut off the flow of foreign exchange to our country.



Regulators estimated that these new systems will be ready by November 30 in the case of debit cards, and January 30, 2020 for credit card payments.

Credit and Debit Cards are the operative arm of the internal banking system, in front of its users; in this scenario the financial actors will find themselves in the need to generate integral solutions that allow them to respond to the new breaches that are coming, at the same time that they open a window of opportunities to the market of crypto currencies and, especially, to Dash, whose characteristics make it a profitable and effective alternative in this context.


Supporting the continuity of the work we have done in Venezuela is an opportunity for everyone in the Dash Digital Cash community and brings us closer to the major national financial players. In Dash Venezuela we are a powerful arm to promote and boost any business opportunity thanks to our reach, experience, network of alliances and our leadership position in the subject of crypto currencies. Learn more about our tools available to the community, and our team's new proposal.


We in DASH VENEZUELA are prepared, we have all the local network and knowledge to take advantage of this new window of opportunities that will leave the absence of these giants of traditional payments in favor of the Dash network. Our network of alliances and contacts, which includes Regulators and private bank decision makers, the experience acquired and our positioning as a point of reference in Venezuela will allow us to promote and promote all business initiatives that benefit the massification of Dash as a form of payment in the midst of this new opportunity created.

UCAB University and Dash Venezuela

fodrwy4x4v031.png


At Dash Venezuela we believe that sharing knowledge about Blockchain and Dash is one of the fundamental pillars to promote their massive adoption and widespread use. Our strategy focuses on what we consider to be strategic nodes for the multiplication of that knowledge, drive transactions and stimulate the development of new communities and projects that generate new contributions to the Dash network.



One of these nodes are universities and academies.

Our experience in training, communicative reach and positioning allows us to reach with a greater number of institutions that are necessary to achieve our goal of massification.

In this opportunity, Dash Venezuela was invited for the third consecutive year to teach a class on Blockchain, crypto currencies and Dash in the Blockchain and cryptoactive class of the Faculty of Administration and Accounting of the Andrés Bello Catholic University (UCAB), where students learned The characteristics of our crypto currency, its governance and the advantages of its use in an environment such as Venezuela.

The UCAB, located in the Venezuelan capital, is one of the most important and prestigious institutions of higher education, and is among the 100 best universities in Latin America, according to the QS Latin American University Ranking.

Dash Venezuela: Workshop focused on Real State in Venezuela
renderTimingPixel.png

At Dash Venezuela we continue to share knowledge about Dash Digital Cash. We know that education is necessary to advance on the path to mass adoption. Adopting disruptive technology on a large scale is not a simple process. It requires covering multiple areas such as education, marketing and PR.

Today, at DV we have the presence of a Real State VIP Franchise in Caracas. Participants were very interested in how to incorporate Dash as a payment tool and find solutions that allow their customers to trade without the daily barriers of our local currency. Talking about Dash and learning the characteristics of our crypto currency and the advantages of its use in an environment like Venezuela, were the topics discussed in this workshop.





Dash Venezuela New Proposal:

Three new bills are added to the Venezuelan monetary cone, without other economic measures aimed at stabilizing the Venezuelan economy. This only augurs a new acceleration of the hyperinflationary process that keeps the country paralyzed.

The new BsS. 50,000, which exceeds the minimum wage estimated in BsS. 40,000 (just $ 6.50 / month), not enough to buy 2 kilos of meat. This is the reality that has led more than 4 million Venezuelans to emigrate to help their families financially through remittances, and thousands of companies to close or operate at less than 10% of their operational capacity. This scenario can be reversed through emerging alternatives such as Dash, which open a range of opportunities for the network.

We will continue to promote Digital Cash Dash until we reach mass adoption and share the knowledge of the economic freedom it represents.
That is the main objective of our new proposal:
