Hello to the fellow Harmonauts and Voldies 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
I would like to apply to the Governor candidacy. Here is something about me, and what I am bringing to the table:
I’m one of the initial NFT creators on the first Harmony NFT marketplace
Community knows me as Andi, and I am one of the initial atists to embrace the first ever Harmony marketplace(DaVinci). I've also tried posting on the [Mochi Market](https://app.mochi.market/), but it never got community's attention.
Also I gave my contribution to spreading the word of NFT by giving away a lot of NFTs for free to the Harmony community. A lot of people can vouch for me on that. Also I have respect for individuals and the community as a whole. I believe I have also earned respect from the NFT artists, NFT collectors, and the major Harmony validators. I’ve earned it by being the realest, not hyping the projects, but finding the week points and giving my solutions to the project creators.
Here are some of my socials:
I am a bug hunter
So far I have a background of 4 years in software engineering, and I like to create and help others create the best user experience by forming a stable, test driven, software architecture. I also like to hunt bugs to assure the seamless experience for the user. I was trying to help DaVinci create the best NFT gallery, period, by sending them a lot of feedback on their product, and what they can do better. I have mails and discord conversations to back this up. Unfortunately, they didn't do a single thing I pointed out as a problem or an amazing feature for the creators and collectors.
I have a full flagged list of features I would like to see as an artist and as a collector
Like I've mentioned in the previous point. I have been researching a lot of market places, and collecting the best and the worst from those. Also I've came across a lot of my original ideas inspired by the already available features or by the lacking features on even some of the biggest NFT marketplaces. I really can't wait to share them and help out to build them.
I believe in, and I'm all about community and group work
Just like I have a lot of plans and ideas, I believe that when I point them out there will be people to improve on them, and to be inspired to propose their own ideas.
As a ONE(individual) we might survive, but all as ONE we might thrive.
Fight against plagiarism
I am huge on fighting against plagiarism. As the platform grows, we are going to get more and more plagiarism. We shouldn't sacrifice originality for the more users. We should stay persistent in a fight against the copycats, even if it means half of the users are going down.
I’m here to stay
You should know that my main objective here is to grow the community. Not just the Voldies community, not even just the Harmony community, but the web3 community. I am a huge believer in the future where the world should be organized by DAOs, not necessarily by countries. I am using every chance to show people who are not trusting the crypto space how the life could be easier with it, and why I think it it going to be the next big thing.
I’m not in this space just for profit. The goa is to build the platforms that we and our ancestors are going to use to freely express ourselves and to make the life easier wherever it’s possible. Like I said: I’m not here just for the profit. The profit will come organically as we build and revolutionize the industry.
Cheers and Forward!
Andi
