Yo, yo, some of you may know me from the public goods scene or for my work done in FDD (2021-2023), some of you from the larger public goods ecosystem and some of you may not, but one thing is certain, we all love Gitcoin❤️, public goods and want to create a better future for all.
My contributions as a Gitcoin Citizen are multiple, but can can be divided into three categories stewardship, experiments and community support*
- Gitcoin Steward and serial "shiller" - I've been a fan of Gitcoin since 2019 and a serial shiller for public goods and Gitcoin. I think I've promoted Gitcoin to almost every project/person that I've talked with in the crypto hemisphere, in a lot of the crypto conferences I've attended and also to non crypto organizations such as WWF, WildBucovina, etc
As a steward I've always advocated for:
-fairness and transparency, especially around the grant processes -community education & empowerment -community support and inclusiveness -doing my part in protecting and signaling bad actors
- Experiments
Conceptualized and co-executed the first round using QF to co-fund an Ethereum National event - the ETH Bucharest x Arbitrum DAO round.
This as been well received and numerous other national ETH event organizers have reached out to learn how they can leverage QF to co-fund their events.
- Ecosystem and community support
I’ve helped and guided at least 200 people around various subjects related to the Gitcoin grants, passport, community, ethos, products, history, methodology and more.
Since 2021-2024 I have also pitched Gitcoin grants and now protocols to numerous organizations: Gnosis, GMX, UMA, WWF, Fiat24,1Hive, Eth Bucharest, Eth Bratislava to name a few.
In 2022 I was one of the recipients of the Outstanding stewards awards.
My only interests are the success of Gitcoin and its mission, the adoption of its protocols and the collective success of our community of do gooders + a great grant funding experience for everyone!
I’m working on a solo project that has the goal of teaching people about public goods, Gitcoin and mapping all the public goods in web3 in a fun way: https://wild-cactus-802.notion.site/Welcome-to-your-Public-Goods-Portal-b934db6bbb3d4ee19e2c7556258ec389
