Summary
The @TelcoinTAO X account is currently underutilised, particularly in promoting key events and providing regular, enthusiastic updates between bi-weekly council meetings. This proposal outlines a strategy to manage the account more effectively, with a minimum of four posts per week, highlighting the benefits for community engagement, transparency, and the success of Telcoin’s web3 initiatives and governance model. Fill the gap of silence between bi weekly council meetings.
Current Challenges
-
Infrequent and Lackluster Updates: The @TelcoinTAO account has posted sporadically, with significant gaps between updates (e.g., May 27 and June 5, 2025). The posts lack enthusiasm, which fails to excite or engage the community effectively.
-
Missed Opportunities: Critical events, such as the Telcoin TAO Competition announced by @cantinaxyz on June 6, 2025, were not promoted on the official account, risking lower participation and undermining the project’s visibility.
-
Reliance on Third Parties and Discord: New users are often directed to Discord to ask repetitive questions, leading to frustration and a poor first experience. Existing community members lack a reliable space to direct newcomers for updates.
-
Inaccessibility of Council Meetings: The majority of the community cannot attend bi-weekly council meetings due to scheduling or time zone constraints, leaving them uninformed about governance decisions and progress.
Proposed Strategy for @TelcoinTAO X Account Management
- Increased Posting Frequency and Enthusiasm
- Objective: Ensure consistent, engaging communication to keep the community informed, excited, and involved.
- Implementation:
- Post a minimum of four times per week, covering updates on platform development, governance decisions, community initiatives, and key events.
- Infuse posts with enthusiasm to generate excitement and encourage participation. Use vibrant language and visuals to make the content more appealing.
- Schedule posts to coincide with significant milestones, such as the upcoming mainnet launch in Q3 2025, the Beta Mainnet by year-end, and the introduction of new features or partnerships.
- Live Streaming Bi-Weekly Council Meetings
- Objective: Increase accessibility and transparency of governance activities for the majority of the community who cannot attend in person.
- Implementation:
- Host bi-weekly council meetings via X Spaces or embedded live streams, announced two weeks in advance, reminders through the week.
- Encourage community participation through questions and comments during the live stream.
- The day after each meeting, post an enthusiastic summary on @TelcoinTAO highlighting key points, decisions, and action items, with a link to the recording for those who missed the live event.
- Proactive Promotion of Key Events
- Objective: Maximize participation and visibility of Telcoin initiatives to reduce reliance on third-party platforms.
- Implementation:
- Promote all major events, such as competitions and partnership announcements, on the @TelcoinTAO account simultaneously with or before third-party platforms.
- For the recent Telcoin TAO Competition, a retroactive post could still drive engagement.
- Ensure cross-promotion with partners like @cantinaxyz to amplify reach and maintain enthusiasm.
- Community Engagement and Interaction
- Objective: Foster a sense of ownership and involvement among both new and existing community members.
- Implementation:
- Use polls, AMAs, and Q&A sessions on X to gather feedback, answer questions, and generate excitement.
- Respond promptly and enthusiastically to comments and direct messages to build trust and show responsiveness.
- Share user-generated content to encourage participation and create a positive vibe.
- Educational Content
- Objective: Empower the community with knowledge to participate effectively in governance and platform activities, reducing the need for repetitive questions on Discord.
- Implementation:
- Post enthusiastic guides on how to stake $TEL, participate in governance votes, and use the Telcoin Wallet.
- Highlight unique aspects of Telcoin, such as its telecom partnerships and GSMA validation, to differentiate it in the web3 space and generate excitement.
Benefits of Enhanced X Account Management

- For New and Existing Community Members
- Improved Onboarding Experience: New users will have a reliable, enthusiastic space on X to stay informed, reducing the need to ask repetitive questions on Discord and preventing frustration.
- Space for Existing Members: Regular updates on X provide a platform for existing community members to direct newcomers, ensuring they stay in the loop and have a positive experience.
- Reduced Frustration: By addressing common questions and providing enthusiastic, clear information on X, the community can avoid the repetitive, frustrating interactions currently occurring on Discord.
Resource Requirements
- Dedicated Social Media Manager: Allocate a team member or hire a professional to manage the X account, ensuring consistent, enthusiastic posting and engagement.
- Content Creation Tools: Invest in tools for scheduling posts, analyzing engagement, and creating visual, exciting content (e.g., Canva, Hootsuite).

- Community Moderators: Train or appoint moderators for live streams and post interactions to maintain order, enthusiasm, and responsiveness.
Conclusion
Managing the @TelcoinTAO X account with greater frequency, enthusiasm, and strategic focus is essential for the associations growth in the web3 space and its community governance model. By implementing the proposed strategy, Telcoin can enhance transparency, foster engagement, and provide a reliable, exciting space for both new and existing community members. This will ultimately support the project’s goals of decentralized finance innovation and global adoption, while improving the onboarding experience and reducing frustration for new users.
