Impact
RPC providers have not been the main topic in the Japanese community. And Japan has a significant language barrier. We can support POKT Network in getting direct intentions from the Japanese market through Japan Hub’s work. POKT Network can provide more education opportunities at the discretion of PRC providers.
Planned work
Establishment of POKT Japan Hub
Manage the Japanese X account. - The Japanese crypto community is in X.
We will create the Japanese X account for it, and we will report metrics(a number of impressions, followers, posts).
Translate Japanese updates, news, and information across these community groups.
Publish these updates and information on various content platforms such as Twitter.
Engage with members of the Japanese community, providing answers and insights about the Pocket Network. Try a collaboration event or AMA with POKT Korea Hub.
