Project Goal: Our mission is to support endangered language communities by providing tools and engagement opportunities to preserve their languages and cultural heritage. Our platform is designed to safeguard linguistic diversity and cultural practices. We’re introducing a user-friendly feature for easy content input and also offering an API for accessing preserved language data. This aligns with our goal of safeguarding languages in the digital age.
Project Value:
Blockchain ensures the immutability of preserved language data, providing an unalterable record that can be trusted by the language community and researchers, compared to traditional databases susceptible to unauthorized changes.
Blockchain enables transparent and decentralized decision-making through distributed governance, empowering community members to collectively shape the project’s direction.
Blockchain’s encryption and cryptographic mechanisms enhance data security, protecting sensitive language and cultural data better than Web 2.0 platforms, which are more prone to data breaches.
Through Tokenomics and NFT rewards, blockchain introduces intrinsic motivation for contributors, offering tangible rewards for their efforts.
Blockchain’s transparency ensures accountability in contributions, edits, and access to preserved data.
Blockchain’s decentralized nature facilitates global accessibility to preserved languages, catering to a broader audience without restrictions.
The project is less susceptible to single points of failure or censorship attempts due to the decentralized nature of blockchain, compared to the potential vulnerabilities of central servers in Web 2.0.

This is both fascinating and interesting at the same time to read, as a linguist and an IELTS tutor myself. Lest I forget before getting caught up in the mix, welcome to Season 5 and goodluck on your journey as hackathon progresses.
I see this project is focused on empowering endangered language communities to preserve their linguistic heritage by providing a user-friendly platform for content input and offers an API for accessing preserved language data, and employs tokenomics and NFT rewards to incentivize contributors.
I have just two questions bordering around the project description;
How does the project plan to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the language data preserved on the blockchain?
Could you provide more information about the LanguageDAO API subscription? How will developers integrate it into their applications
@Samhita DAO. Thanks for bringing up such a nice project but I have some questions.
Q1 What are the specific endangered languages that the project will focus on,and how will the project ensure the accuracy and quality of the data it collects.
Q2 How will the project make the data accessible to the communities that need it,and how will it mitigate the risks of censorship and data breaches.
Q3 How will the project ensure that the benefits of the project are shared equitably among all stakeholders,and also how will the project be funded and sustained over the long term.
Q4 What are the potential challenges and risks of the project and how will the success measure.
Q5
How will the project incentivize community members to participate in the project.
Q6
How will the project address the needs of different stakeholders, such as language experts, researchers, and technology developers.
Hello @Gordian , Thank you so much for the warm welcome, and I’m thrilled to be back for Tron Hackathon season 5. Your kind wishes mean a lot to us.
I’m thrilled to share that we’ve successfully achieved all the milestones set in Season 4:
Language DAO Creation: We’ve implemented a user-friendly process, enabling ordinary users to effortlessly create their own language DAOs in just a few steps. While in the backend, the user is deploying their own language DAO on the mainnet and also minting the tokens for that DAO.
DAO Governance: The implementation of DAO governance has been a success. We’ve created and thoroughly tested the necessary contracts. In this upcoming season, we’re dedicated to further improving our governance mechanisms.
Template Creation: We’ve enabled language DAOs to utilise templates sourced from the Samhita DAO, ensuring uniformity among language datasets. These templates are minted as NFTs and generate royalties when used by other DAOs, and this system is functioning smoothly.
Functionality Testing: We’ve rigorously tested all aspects of the platform’s functionality to ensure its reliability.
While it’s true that we currently don’t have active users, our presence in the TRON community is aimed at gathering valuable feedback as we continue to develop the platform. We firmly believe that this project is a collective effort that can significantly contribute to the preservation of languages and cultures. We encourage everyone to share their thoughts and suggestions, helping us enhance the platform. If you have specific functionalities in mind that could improve the user experience, we’re open to exploring their implementation. Our overarching goal is to provide a seamless user experience while safeguarding our invaluable human assets.
Regarding your third question, We got some feedback while trying to connect with organisations that it would be easy for them to join the platform if the UI and templates provided to them were easy. As a result, we are dedicated to enhancing our platform to ensure that new users can effortlessly engage with it.
In terms of marketing, it can be digital marketing as well as partnering with organisations that are working in the same field. However, our primary focus has been on refining and enhancing our platform before delving deeper into our marketing initiatives.
I believe I’ve addressed all your questions comprehensively. Your inquiries are immensely valuable to us, and we genuinely appreciate your engagement. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with more questions or suggestions. We’ll be sure to inform you when our platform goes live and invite you to test it. I understand that my response to your questions has been delayed due to a hectic schedule over the past few days.
I’d like to address your points. It’s true that, to the best of my knowledge, there aren’t any prominent DAOs on the TRON network with a large user base. The same can be said for DeFi projects on TRON, which tend to have fewer users compared to other blockchains like Ethereum.
As for how our project benefits the TRON ecosystem, it’s worth noting that this particular type of DAO is rather unique and not readily available on other blockchains. When we deploy all the associated contracts on TRON, it essentially brings language collections onto the TRON blockchain, thereby adding intrinsic value to the network. If the TRON community rallies behind our initiative and actively contributes to the preservation of languages, it could potentially attract users who might not have previously used TRON but are passionate about preserving languages and culture. In essence, this endeavor is poised to bolster the TRON ecosystem by expanding its user base and providing valuable benefits to users.
In response to your last question, yes, we were the winners of the previous season and received funds. However, building a fully functional and ready-to-use project entails a significant commitment of resources and time. This includes development efforts and marketing initiatives. Additionally, having a dedicated team is essential. Furthermore, by engaging with the TRON community, we aim to attract more users to test our platform, making it an ideal choice for our project.
Thank you for your questions, and please feel free to reach out if you have any more questions and have suggestions for this project.
I like the goal, do you have any certain/ specific language in mind to start the project? Like a prototype version? or what exactly is an endangered language for you? Would be happy if you could answer :))
Welcome Samhita DAO to season 5.
Language preservation is very crucial as your language determines your identity.
Sadly most language are on the verge of extinction and some have also evolved to a point where the original meaning of some words or terms are lost.
This begs the question, how sure are you that the languages provided on your platform will be very accurate and not a language in a distorted fashion that is far from the right meaning.
you are part last hackathon winner’s ?
