A short animated video could be useful to explain where the community is now, which of her product is available for use, how to use the community's product in solving basic or simple economic problems and also where RChain intends to reach in actualization of vision.\r\n\r\nThirdly, starting from the scratch: Making analysis on crypto friendly African countries and starting with countries with greater awareness and understanding of Blockchains. This will make the awareness spread faster than starting with countries with little or no participation in Blockchain. Population size is also a factor under marketing consideration.\r\n\r\nFourthly, getting Africans core developers on boarded in the community. Search for their Channels, blogs, socials and other minor and major African developers blogs, platforms inviting them to join our developers team.\r\n\r\n@david I agree with you and as a matter of fact have been concerned about the coldness of the RChain Africa telegrams group but I still think that the goal like @lapin7 said should be made with smart objectives. Let's start by breaking the goals down into bits of actualizable roadmap. Let's start with the telegram group: How do we on board more members on our telegram group? \r\nFirst: let's get the list of developers platforms, media and channels in Africa inviting them to the community with link\r\nSecondly : managing the telegram group by entertaining the question of on boarded members and promoting our services. \r\n"}}
