Please describe your proposed solution

Context and challenge

Currently, there are many knowledge-sharing projects, but only at the level of translating documents and posting articles.

There is a complete lack of short tests or quizzes for the community to self-test what they read.

Or the projects are all developing in different educational product directions that do not focus on one source.

This leads to inefficiencies and waste of resources.

After more than 1 year of operating the blockchain knowledge-sharing platform, Cardano. Our team recognizes that a diversity of knowledge is required to serve all the needs of the community.

This is absolutely true because our team itself always has to answer small questions related to Cardano's knowledge every day.

And the reason is very simple that the community has people who are busy and do not have enough time to read knowledge articles

Our solutions

Within the scope of this proposal, we propose a solution for a new educational product belonging to the Vcoincheck.io ecosystem - Vcoincheck Quizz

Vcoincheck Quizz: Quick knowledge test questions about Cardano, blockchain, and crypto.

Vcoincheck quizz will be a quick quizzes that helps the community to check their knowledge anytime, anywhere without spending time relearning knowledge from the beginning.

Quiz structure**:**

In the 1st phase of the product, we want to create a quiz with 300 multiple-choice questions with the following specific structure:

• The set of questions will include 300 questions: 150 easy questions, 90 difficult questions, and 60 very difficult questions. There will be at least 180 (60%) questions related to Cardano.
• 1 test can be in 3 levels as follows

1. The advanced test consists of 50 questions: 25 easy, 15 difficult, and 10 very difficult. The average time to complete a test is 30-60 minutes
2. The average test consists of 20 questions: 10 easy, 5 difficult, and 5 very difficult. The average time to complete a test is 15-30 minutes
3. The quick test consists of 10 questions: 5 easy and 5 difficult. The average time to complete a test is 3-10 minutes.

• Quizzes will be randomly selected in a set of 300 questions, each "quizz" time is a test with different content.
• A sample quiz for the community to test: Demo quizz (Cardanolibrary.net)

The solution to attract community

• As we have a connection with Cardano Japanese community. We will also build the product in Japan language
• To encourage the community to participate in learning knowledge as well as taking quizzes. 30% of the proposal's budget is a reward for community incentive campaigns.
• There are rewards for people who will the incentive game.
• The reward can be ADA or Cardano token which will be chosen by the community through voting.

Additional information on the tasks of a community incentive campaign.

• 1 campaign takes place in 1 month
• 1 campaign includes 3 small campaigns named: weekly game and monthly game.
• Each small campaign will go through the following processes:

1. Announcement
2. Vote for the type of token used as a reward.
3. Community conducts quizzes
4. Summarize results.

Impact

Short-term:

• A product that provides knowledge and information about Cardano quickly in the form of questions so that anyone can participate and do it at any place and at any time.
• Designed on our existing website platform, so it is easy to edit and share in many different languages and regional communities.
• Community incentive campaigns can bring attraction to users quickly.
• People who are not familiar with Cardano can also participate and if they have a chance to own ADA or Cardano tokens, they will learn more about Cardano.

Long-term:

• This product will enhance the diversity of Cardano's knowledge of the Vcoincheck ecosystem. It will become a familiar place for all regular Cardano users, or users in other ecosystems.
• The Vcoincheck community is built on basic blockchain and Cardano knowledge, so everyone who joins our community is a Cardano lover.
• If the operation model of this product creates success, it can be easily shared with other communities or create cooperation to exchange and contribute knowledge to each other.

Who will the project engage

• Our main community: telegram group >1000 member, facebook group over 47k member.
• Cardano community in whole world: Quizzes will be displayed in Vietnam, English, Japan language.

Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community

The current Vcoincheck.io platform has educational products such as:

• Vcoincheck crypto project evaluation:
• Vcoincheck library: A library to share basic knowledge about Cardano, blockchain
• Vcoincheck training course: Knowledge training course or how to evaluate crypto projects
• Vcoincheck crypto dictionary: an extension of the knowledge library to serve readers who have little time to spend on blockchain.

If this proposal is approved, it will have the following benefits:

• Helping busy users to review and learn about Cardano without spending much time.
• Those who read and learn knowledge through the Vcoincheck library can also test their knowledge to improve their knowledge.
• Community incentive campaign can attract users from other ecosystem because in 1 test structure there will be 60% Cardano knowledge and 40% general blockchain knowledge.
• Participants will know about the projects or tokens that are developing in the Cardano ecosystem.

Common benefits for the community if the Vcoincheck ecosystem continues to develop.

• Knowledge: People can contribute their own knowledge in return for the knowledge of others.
• Vcoincheck point: Vcoincheck point is the point system of the Vcoincheck platform, it can be used for the exchange of services, information, and jobs that have been and will be available on Vcoincheck.
• Money: Vcoincheck will have times to encourage the community to contribute or do jobs that the community is willing to pay for.
• Reputation: In the Vcoincheck ecosystem, all contributions will be converted into Vcoincheck points, this is the point to evaluate the reputation of individuals who have contributed a lot to the community. And we have always understood that a simple thing with a reputation is to be able to earn many things.

Key metrics to measure the success of the project

1.Number of people taking the test:

The number of people taking the test is the first measure of success. The more people involved, the more people will know about the project and knowledge about Cardano.

2. Number of Cardano knowledge questions created:

The number of Cardano knowledge questions in the questionnaire will assess the diversification, information content and knowledge of Cardano.

3. Quality of the test:

The quality of the test will reflect the level of interest and evaluation of the participants taking the test.

4. Number of known development projects in the Cardano ecosystem:

In the questionnaire, there are questions about ecosystem projects. Incentive rewards of community incentive campaigns can be ADA or 1 token in the Cardano ecosystem voted by the community.

Our main goals after 5 months.

Goal 1: Increase the effectiveness of Cardano knowledge education for the community.

Tests on multiple levels apply to Cardano literacy courses, reinforcing what people read from our library. This goal is determined by the parameters of the quiz test

• Number of times to do the quiz: 1000 times
• Number of participants to take the test: 100 paxs

Goal 2: Number of interactions with the product

This goal is determined by views, likes, and feedback on social media channels, and community telegram groups through posts related to our products.

• Social networks: 500 interactions.
• Google form: 100 responses.

Goal 3: Number of projects on Cardano that are introduced to the community naturally.

This goal is defined by project token rewards in community incentive campaigns. The most important token type will be chosen by the community through voting.

• Target: 8 projects.

Goal 4: The number of questions in the entire set of questions: The more questions, the more diverse the quiz will be and the more information about Cardano will be transmitted.

• Target: 300 questions.

Goal 5: The number of community incentive campaign

• Target: 8 weekly games and 4 monthly games

Plans to share the outputs and results

• Documents: We will post reports, and product launch activities monthly or according to each campaign to encourage the community (via google shared documents)
• Our websites: Operation results will be shared in the form of articles on our 2 websites (vcoincheck.io and cardanolibrary.net)
• The product will be deployed directly on the website cardanolibrary.net
• Social platforms: We share activities, and project information through social networking platforms
