Hi @Franklin , thanks for sharing the Rootstock Ecosystem Roadshow 2026. I can see the evolution from last year, especially with the introduction of on chain tracking, more structured flows and a more intentional onboarding funnel.
Before supporting a larger rollout in 2026, I’d like to anchor a few concerns based on what we observed in 2025 (even though I didn’t participate in the vote last year).
From the 2025 report, onboarding and interaction metrics reached only ~50% of the original targets. I understand the shift toward smaller, more targeted formats, which makes sense directionally. However, do you have quantified data from 2025 showing that smaller workshops materially outperformed larger events in terms of conversion?
Since 2026 expands both scope (more countries) and budget, it would be important to confirm that the core onboarding model is already validated.
I do see the tracking tool as a meaningful upgrade compared to last year. Very impressive!
On expansion: 2026 includes new markets Peru, Paraguay, and Colombia, which is interesting. Could you share what informed this decision? Why expand instead of doubling down on the highest performing regions from 2025?
On budget: in 2025, $6.5K was approved but ~$8.9K was executed (+34%). For 2026, the request is ~$15.6K (~2.4x increase). How have you adjusted budgeting assumptions based on last year’s overrun? (I know its more scopes but would love to learn more)
Thanks!
