Pan African Blockchain Media and Event Tour 2026&&**TL;DR**
This proposal requests 2.67 ETH ($8,400) to execute a Pan-African blockchain event tour in 2026, covering 5 major Blockchain events across Africa. The tour will document founders, builders, and attendees through fun, high-quality video content, publish articles, real-time social updates, and distribute interactive Nouns-themed educational games and crypto quiz cards to engage newcomers. By combining storytelling, media, and playful learning, this initiative will expand Nouns culture and strengthen its presence across African crypto communities.
***Confirmed Events Include:*** Africa Blockchain, DeFi & Web3 Summit (Lagos) • ETH Cape Town(South Africa) • ETH Accra(Ghana) • ETH Safari(Kenya) • Zanziblock(Tanzania)
**About Me**
I am a musician, blockchain educator, philanthropist, and core contributor at Nouns DAO Africa. My work blends culture, community engagement, and on-chain advocacy to support African builders and DAO initiatives.
***Relevant Experience:***
•Host of Spotlighting African Builders — 10+ episodes, 10+ founders, 3,000+ listeners
•Event co organizer and educator at ETH Enugu 2025 for Nouns DAO Africa
•Prev Social Media Manager & Partnerships Lead at Wethem Media
• DAO Contributor: Lil Nouns and Nouns DAO Africa
**Problem Statement**
Africa’s blockchain ecosystem is expanding rapidly, yet the stories, builders, and cultural moments shaping it remain largely undocumented.
***Key Issues:***
•Lack of proper documentation for builders, products, and event activities
•Limited engaging and interactive educational materials at events
•Minimal Nouns visibility across African blockchain communities
**Solution**
The tour addresses these gaps by capturing events through fun, high-quality interviews, distributing playful Nouns-themed crypto quiz cards, and preserving all content on-chain through published articles and NFT-minted videos.
The quiz cards are designed to make interviews interactive and educational, each card contains fun questions about cryptocurrencies, DAOs, and blockchain concepts. During events, attendees can test their knowledge while engaging with the interviews, and 5 newcomers at each event will receive a set of cards to take home. This approach enhances grassroots education, expands Nouns visibility, and ensures African builder stories are properly documented and shared.

**IMPACT**
Africa is one of the fastest-growing crypto regions, yet its builders, events, and innovations remain largely under-documented. As someone passionate about blockchain adoption on the continent, I aim not only to document the stories of builders and users currently leveraging the technology but also to onboard new audiences by helping them understand blockchain at its most fundamental level.
This initiative goes beyond storytelling, it demonstrates that blockchain adoption isn’t just for developers, but also for anyone who wants to bring what they already love and do on-chain. By preserving the experiences of crypto-native builders and users, we showcase how blockchain can support culture preservation, creativity, and community innovation.
Through a combination of media coverage, on-chain documentation, and playful educational materials like Nouns-themed quiz cards, this tour creates a lasting cultural and educational impact. Each event becomes an opportunity to engage, teach, and celebrate African innovation, while amplifying Nouns culture across new communities and ensuring that these stories are permanently recorded on-chain.
