ENS DAO Delegate Applications

ENS name: vigilance.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: The same reasons anyone wants political power, to exploit that power for personal gain (I bet no one else is honest enough to willingly admit that publicly). That, and to also advocate/encourage everyone to take personal responsibility, self-delegate and engage critically and skeptically in democracy in all it’s beautiful forms and flavors, not just on this forum.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution

  • Name ownership shall not be infringed: Agree
  • Fees are primarily an incentive mechanism: Agree
  • Income funds ENS and other public goods: Agree
  • ENS Integrates with the global namespace: Agree

My web3 qualifications / skills:

  • Vocal advocate for blockchain, web3, and cryptocurrency technology in general
  • Self-reliant, independent and ambitious. I’ve never been given anything in life and had to make my own way without relying on anyone or anything or support of any kind
  • Former College professor, teaching video game development
  • Fluent with C++, Python, PHP, Javascript & Solidity
  • Currently working on multiple FOSS products/public goods in those languages for building on web3 technology, focused on education and lowering the barrier of entry into the blockchain space
  • I pride myself in a security first development approach
  • Began my self-educated journey into the metaverse back in 2018 as an independent developer but that got put on hiatus for a few years until I was finally able to get on-chain at the beginning of the 2021 bull run (I missed out on a lot, I know but that’s life sometimes)
  • check out my personal developer website
  • or take a look at my open source github repositories (links available on dev site)

Thanks for your time and I hope you consider me as your delegate or honestly, don’t. Please make whichever decision you feel accurately represents your best interests and yours alone because in a democracy you are always your best advocate!
