Please describe your proposed solution

Being a native speaker, the host of a Youtube channel about Cardano, a person who is constantly in the community and works there all the time, I can easily translate this book

(" Cardano for the Masses").

1. I am familiar with the specifics and features of Cardano, I have repeatedly covered them on Youtube orally
2. Important to note that this proposal is aimed at the Russian-speaking community, which lives all over the world. It means that Russian-speaking community will spread what they know about Cardano to their foreign friends.
3. This is a great book, recommended by Charles Hoskinson - the Founder of Cardano

4.The book can attract additional resources to the ecosystem, including developers (there have already been a couple of requests for integration)

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

Positive impact:

1. Long-Term Foundation: translation of the book will enable Russian-speaking people to better understand the ecosystem and give them a reliable source of information.
2. Community building: As a continuation of my community building work, I will be able to build stronger connections. Not only users, but also new developers will come to the community
3. Expanded Global Reach: The proposal's emphasis on catering to Russian speakers contributes to Cardano's global reach. The Russian-speaking population represents one of the world's largest populations, and engaging this demographic through educational content and community-building activities enhances Cardano's visibility and influence on a global scale.
