It will cover the basics of Sei: how to set up a wallet, obtain tokens, and interact with simple smart contracts.\n   - Bug reporting and issue tracking will be integrated into this early phase.\n\n2. Phase 2 \u2013 \"Smart Contracts Development \" (Month 2-3):**  \n   - Start developing smart contracts that the bot will reference. The contracts will be designed to showcase Sei\u2019s unique features while remaining easy for users to understand. (Or at least, as easy as possible for a larping dev like me!)\n\n3. Phase 3 \u2013 Advanced Features (Month 4+): \n   - Introduce features for power users who want to go beyond the basics: staking, governance participation, and more complex smart contract interaction.\n   - Expand the bot\u2019s capabilities to also report on key Sei ecosystem updates and new developer tools.\n\nmy goal is to create something impactful and fun that aligns with Sei's vision\u2014even if I\u2019m learning as I go.
