Preliminary Considerations
Alignment with the English-speaking sphere regarding documentation has been a priority highlighted by ambassadors for several months: Introducing the Regional Jupiter Initiative
Integration into the Web3 space via Jupiter, with a regional approach that takes language diversity into account, is not only necessary in the eyes of certain community members but beyond.
English dominates the internet, but the future of the Web will be multilingual and inclusive.
This evolution is essential to ensure that DeFi is accessible to everyone, reducing the linguistic digital divide and strengthening the participation of non-English speakers in the digital economy.
Public education systems, from which most of us come, prioritize teaching the local language before introducing other languages, which are considered optional. This reality challenges the presumed hegemony of “Ebglish for all” as the inevitable final state. This “destiny” is far from unanimous, even though it seems to characterize much of the population evolving within the crypto sphere today.
Therefore, we must recognize that expanding entry points beyond English is not just relevant, it is crucial. These languages should not be overlooked: as shown in article Resource: Indicators on the Presence of Languages in Internet (Pimienta, SIGUL 2022) thanks to new, less biased measurement methodologies, the weight of English in content production has traditionally been overestimated (see the detailed explanations in the article).
Figure - the inverted pyramid should be interpreted as an expression of the confidence interval: the percentage of web content in Chinese (or English) is between 16% and 24%, while all other languages combined represent between 18% and 26% of the total.
Regional Welcome Support
The aim is to ensure the implementation and monitoring of the following elements within an evolving framework.
Overview
Here’s how to create an easily accessible reference corpus, enabling all interested members of the community to familiarize themselves with essential information on all aspects of Jupiverse, in the local language, all in one place.
Key Advantages: Quick access, Easy updates, Document sharing
Methodology
â–¸1. Organize all available resources:
1.a) Collect the links to the original Jupiter DAO FAQ
1.b) Arrange them in a spreadsheet according to a structured plan (the order may differ from the example provided
).
â–¸2. Establish regional language correspondences:
2.a) Create illustrated threads in your language (using JupStation for additional information and Jupiter Horizon for possible presentation formats if necessary).
2.b) Publish these threads on the X/Twitter account of the regional community initiative, based on the best audience engagement time slots.
â–¸3. Centralize and share content:
3.a) Copy and paste the link to the first post of each X thread into your spreadsheet in the corresponding row and share it in goodlinks
3.b) Share the updated Discord link in the regional channel, ensuring it has a clear title so that other members understand its content.
â–¸4. Visual Organization on Discord:
4.a) Create as many sections as there are categories, using optimized dimensions for better organization (e.g., Twitter banner format).
4.b) Choose a design that aligns with different Jupiter themes (products, DAO, etc.).
4.c) Include key guidelines for a quick overview.
â–¸5. Pin your new resources in the regional channel. (Request a moderator)
â–¸6. Ensure regular monitoring of necessary updates.
Other Recommendations
-
Maximum one thread per day on a specific topic from 1.a)
-
Avoid redundancy: If multiple members want to pin a reference covering the same topic from the same source, initiate a discussion to reach a consensus. It would be counterproductive to have multiple pinned items for identical content.

Conclusion
Regional onboarding is inspiring new initiatives, and it is crucial to structure our resources efficiently to facilitate access for both new members and future ambassadors looking to lead a regional initiative.
A full alignment with JUP DAO FAQ serves as the common foundation for all regional initiatives.
The X threads x goodlinks x regional Discord channel combination creates an efficient and structured system for retrieving essential information.
Note:
The Lunes can consider additional extensions to this base content tailored to their regional characteristics.
Once this framework is established, training ambassadors directly in their regional language, without relying on English, becomes a tangible possibility.
