By owning lovingly crafted jouyou character NFTs from the collection, learners of Japanese will have a chance to better memorize them as well as unlock unique, specially tailored educational content. Financially, by buying the tokens, the users will directly invest into developing of the quality educational content they will have obtained as part of owning the NFT\u2014a Web3 crowdfunding model of sort. Esthetically, a unique serial graphical tune characteristic of NFT collections is certainly present in this The Matrix-inspired collection, allowing Matrix Jouyou to smoothly fit in the existing Web3-ecosystem.\n\nIt is not news that Japanese kanji characters can be rather difficult to master for native speakers of languages not based on logograms, e.g., English. If successfully funded, Matrix Jouyou presents with an opportunity to create an original, frequency-based kanji-learning project based on studying the most popular words containing a given kanji, with specific focus on uniting various meanings and readings into one logical narrative. At the same time, the Web3-based learning flow Matrix Jouyou provides opens up an opportunity to showcase Web3 to a more general audience previously largely unfamiliar with it as well as to debunk the myth about NFTs being a Ponzi mechanism as often perceived by a Web3 outsider.\n\nClearly, Matrix Jouyou is focused on improving the Web3 ecosystem and popularizing it among the general audience. The project is more than a year-old, which is proven by its [GitHub history](https://github.com/p1m-ortho/p1m.github.io/commits/main/matrixjouyou.md). Matrix Jouyou\u2019s team has demonstrated their capacity in the Web3 space by actually creating the [entire collection](https://nftstorage.link/ipfs/bafybeiedpoblybh4qsvlqgs6exn3eztw7xakzio7crglidzbcrnnleww5q) and [launching](https://goerli.etherscan.io/address/0x9Ce5E4355cCA39965791473485F6B5eE44dA8A79) it in the sandbox. Several test NFTs have been minted as a proof-of concept, e.g., [#32 Ten Thousand](https://market.sandbox.immutable.com/inventory/assets/0x9ce5e4355cca39965791473485f6b5ee44da8a79/32), [#48 Fire](https://market.sandbox.immutable.com/inventory/assets/0x9ce5e4355cca39965791473485f6b5ee44da8a79/48), or [#18 Mountain](https://market.sandbox.immutable.com/inventory/assets/0x9ce5e4355cca39965791473485f6b5ee44da8a79/18). You can verify that the contact creator\u2019s wallet is the recipient wallet of this Gitcoin grant application.\n\nMatrix Jouyou\u2019s long-term goals and recent milestones are [specified](https://p1m.org/matrixjouyou/) on the collection\u2019s website and go as follows: The long-term goal is the creation of original educational pages about each of the kanji in the collection. The recent milestone is launching the collection to mainnet and reaching 20 token holders to begin creating original educational content for the first most popular kanji. To launch the collection to mainnet, we basically need to fund gas fees, that is, about 0.1\u00ad\u20130.2 ETH (ca. $200\u00ad\u2013400 DAI) given the approximate gas usage of the [test contract creation transaction](https://goerli.etherscan.io/tx/0xcd08d666ffe7caf705812174c1ed9a41edc848debd0fc6ef12df440816b25ad5) and rates at the time of writing.\n\nIn addition to conforming to the Web3 Community & Education Round Eligibility policy, Matrix Jouyou satisfies the general Gitcoin Rounds eligibility policy. It has a [verified GitHub account](https://github.com/p1m-ortho), did not apply to any other core rounds except for this one, applied to only one Core Round pool, and is not involved in any of the not permitted activities.

The percentage of NFTs sold (currently at 0%, or 0 of 2,136) shows how financially and, thus, long-term viable the project is (aiming for 100%).\n2. The percentage of kanji from the collection for which educational pages have been created (currently at 0%, or 0 of 2,136) shows how productive content creation has been, which is the ultimate pragmatic value of the project (aiming for 100%).\n3. The average number of NFTs from the collection held by a unique token holder (currently at 2,134) shows how the NFTs are actually being used and if there is a need for additional supply of (non-genesis) NFTs. In theory, this metric should not fall steeply as the percentage of NFTs sold grows because upon learning the kanji they bought users should need to acquire other kanji (which, in turn, should necessitate minting of additional collections).\n4. The number of mentions on news outlets and non-affiliated social media (currently at zero) will show how good the general audience uptake of the project has been.", "hidden": true, "question": "How do you measure the impact of your project?

Matrix Jouyou is my first take at actually joining the beauty of Web3 and a rather massively oriented, casual educational project. My strong belief lies with an idea that the more \u2018casual\u2019, non-crypto-oriented projects begin to implement Web3 technologies, the more the Web3 space will flourish.

Filter by school year (Rarity), number of strokes (Complexity), emotional tone (Sentiment), and use frequency (Popularity).\n\nMatrix Jouyou NFT holders will receive exclusive access to learning resources dedicated to the kanji characters they own. These resources will feature the history of the particular kanji and the most popular words or phrases containing it that are in use today, with specific focus on uniting various meanings and readings into one logical narrative. The roll-outs will start once a milestone of >20 token holders is reached and will prioritize older holders. At present, only unique, immutable Genesis Collection NFTs will be available.\n\n**NFT Traits:**\n\n**Rarity**. This corresponds to the school year the kanji is taught in: **1\u20136** for primary school kanji (1,026 unique **Genesis Collection** tokens); **S** for secondary school kanji (1,110 **Genesis Collection** tokens). **H** for Hyougai is the highest **Rarity** so far (4 **Genesis Collection** tokens). **Rarity** is shown by the color of strokes.\n\n**Complexity**. This equals to the kanji stroke count. Median **Complexity** is 10.\n\nData for both **Rarity** and **Complexity** were [downloaded](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_j%C5%8Dy%C5%8D_kanji) from the English Wikipedia on June 9, 2022. Subsequently, they were deduplicated and refined with the assistance of [ChatGPT](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/6825453-chatgpt-release-notes).\n\n**Sentiment**. This has been assigned to each of the kanji individually based on the combined subjective sentiment of its common meanings, from a set of [six basic emotions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotion#Basic_emotions): **Happy**, **Sad**, **Anger**, **Fear**, **Surprise**, and **Disgust**. They are apportioned approximately as 4:2:2:2:1:1. Roughly a half of the tokens have **Neutral** **Sentiment**. Tokens with different **Sentiment** have different background colors.\n\n**Popularity** is based on raw character occurence counts from the Japanese Wikipedia as [published](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scriptin/kanji-frequency/7022fa929a7d58d33ee281e285ca9c94342faa0c/data/wikipedia_characters.csv) by Dmitry Shpika. **Popularity** varies from zero to 1.7M occurences, with a median of 8K occurences.", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectGithub": "p1m-ortho", "projectTwitter": "drzhelnov"}, "recipient": "0xd08aE02392331dDA3c29742f6802Ed420652D275"}}
