ENS name: arqive.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:
I am a young person and want to play an active role in what I believe to be the centerpiece of digital identity in the age of Web 3. (For privacy reasons, Iā€™ll keep it vague and just say that Iā€™m under 30.) The last few years have filled me with doubt about the worldā€™s future. Iā€™ve seen the world gripped by conflict and power hungry, autocratic ā€œleadersā€ who canā€™t help but make things worse for all but a select few. The only thing that has managed to fill me with hope is the acceleration of the NFT movement and Web 3. As the primary naming service on the block chain, ENS will play a crucial role in all things Web 3. As someone who isnā€™t technically fluent in the blockchain world, I see this as a unique chance for me to add value to the space. I am a member of MAYC because I believe BAYC will launch NFTs into the mainstream and drive adoption. Iā€™m a believer in ENS because I have conviction that in a world of avatars ā€œ.ethā€ will serve as the cornerstone of oneā€™s digital identity. I am committed to making it happen, and I humbly ask for your vote as ENS Delegate.

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:
I will claim just shy of 400 $ENS. In my day-to-day I am an Amazon Seller with expertise in advertising and brand management. I take great joy in this job, but my heart lies with the metaverse.

I am a good listener, understand peoples needs and strongly feel that the ENS DAO community could benefit from a delegate with such mindset and skills.

**ENS name: daeshawn.eth

**My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: ENS is one of the most important projects coming out of the web3 space. As a member of the developerdao and being a huge fan this space and technology in general, I want to be able to voice any concerns or show a vote of confidence for the developers who will be impacted by this project in the future through the votes that I maybe fortunate enough to collect. With domain names being a critical resource and tool in the development arsenal, I think itā€™s critical to be apart of this and grow with ENS overtime.

Our reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

HODLHQ is a community driven brand, and we believe that we have the passion and ability to be an ENS Delegator.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution

  • Name ownership shall not be infringed: Agree
    Like any other digital good, a username should be under the complete control and ownership of itā€™s respective owner. As someone who has been involved in the ā€œOGā€ username & domain community across many different platforms, Iā€™m eager for the days where ENS domains become a standard across the web.
  • Fees are primarily an incentive mechanism: Agree
  • Income funds ENS and other public goods: Agree

ENS name: TheWolfofNft.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:
I want to explore the possibilities of ENS even more and the work team has done is amazing. I want to support the Core Ethos of ENS which is Decentralisation. I want to be a part of this historical community that puts everything aside to be the Public Good of the Web3.0 and provide us all with decentralised identities. I want to be a delegate to Experience DAO firsthand, as this would be my first DAO and I always wanted to learn more about DAOs. I will always represent Decentralisation.

ENS name: benmercer.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: Strong libertarian, pro-privacy and believer in the sovereign internet. ENS is the identity protocol of the future and we need ensure it that it retains these ideals.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution

  • Name ownership shall not be infringed: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) Hard agree
    ENS users control governance, not the other way around.

  • Fees are primarily an incentive mechanism: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) Disagree
    Yes, fees are an incentive mechanism, however weā€™re too early in the Metaverse to start picking winners and losers even in the form of incentives.

  • Income funds ENS and other public goods: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) Hard Disagree
    Funds need to be allocated only to ENS/Ethereum related projects ā€“ ā€œother public goodsā€ opens up the coffers to potential politically motivated causes that are outside the scope of ENS and the mission of sovereign identity.

  • ENS Integrates with the global namespace: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) Disagree
    We need to build ENS from the ground-up, there are too many entrenched powers in traditional DNS that would extend their influence into ENS if given the red carpet. Additionally, this is not a big enough of an issue to be included in the ENS Constitution.

My web3 qualifications / skills:
Fundamental technical understanding of cryptography
Solidity > memes
