我来自中国的长沙,事实上我是北方人。来长沙是因为我喜欢南方的天气,北方太干燥了。我的全职工作是在一家互联网公司做视觉设计。

2018年从我之前的同事那里得知IoTeX,和项目的接触来源于帮社区节点做了一个logo,之后便深入和了解了IoTeX并成为粉丝:脸红:

大家好,我是GameFantasy,社区节点的负责人。
我老家在湖南,现在在上海工作。目前从事的职业是游戏软件开发工程师。但是我对物联网很感兴趣,觉得这是未来的方向。
我是2018年通过我所在的项目社区nkn通过双方的合作了解到iotex。通过了解,我觉得iotex的愿景和正在做的事情是符合我心中对一个理想的项目的期待的。于是便购入了大量通证并质押自己成为了社区节点。这里非常感谢中文社区大家对我的支持。以后也将做更多帮助社区了解项目。

我是一个重度的游戏爱好者,也同时是一位游戏设计爱好者。欢迎同好过来沟通讨论。

关于我有趣的事情:我是身高170,140斤但是不显胖的胖子:laughing:

I am altcoin_maximalist and live in Germany. In early 2018 I was infected by the Bitcoin hype.
Starting 2017 would have been better, since then I’m waiting for the next big Bullrun :money_mouth_face:

I deal with the visions of the ever increasing blockchain projects in the Kryptosapce.
The capabilities of Blockchain technology are limitless and will enhance nearly all our areas of life.
Currently, people always have to trust a centralized, often monopolized entity.
This often leads to conflicts of interest and consequently to abuse. Blockchain has the potential to solve the problems if we decide.
I can only recommend it to everyone, be your own bank :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

It was the first time I heard of Iotex when XYO announced its partnership with Iotex.
Since then I am one of the few people in Germany, pay more attention to IoTeX than IOTA :sunglasses:

The potential of IoTeX is great and the hard work of all contributing individuals is driving the project forward at insane speed. Blockchain, IoT and Supply Chain solutions will be the next big challenge after DeFi. That’s why I believe in a great future for Iotex.

Hello everyone! :laughing:

I’m Heslei from Brazil :brazil: and my nickname on TG has been Le Oliveira; It’s really nice talking to you here :wave:

I started to study Mechanical Engineer :books: but I stopped for a while since I wanted to focus on the cryptocurrency scenario and I’ve been doing that since late 2017. I helped some projects by doing translations :memo: and few marketing campaigns which activities played an important role for me to apply for being an IoTeX Brand Ambassador - position proudly held since early this year. :trophy:

I’ve run into IoTeX for the first time when I randomly saw its Intro Video on YouTube :computer: after which I started to make a deep-dive search for more info about the project.

An interesting fact about me would be my passion for practicing sports like (obviously) soccer :soccer:, table tennis :ping_pong: and volleyball :volleyball: - yeah, even though I’m not so tall to do that… anyways, all of them are quite popular around here so… this is me :joy:

Hi,
My name is Joe Goodman.

I’m from Zaragoza, Spain: “Zaragoza” is the spanish derivation of a Roman City named “Cesar Augusta” (if you think on that, the sound is slightly similar)

I’m a computer scientist consultant, specialized in Strategic ITC consultancy, Cibersecurity, Complex systems design, Business Use Cases Design.

I heard about IoTex over internet. I’m an ocassional crypto investor since 2017, and I invested on IoTA on that year, so I was prone to analize Cryptos in the IOT arena. Quickly I realized Iotex potential.

I’m very rationalist, but for that reason I’m very interested in simple little strange facts, with difficult explanations, that one can found on their life. I have a pair of them to share. One of the most strage one is the following (totally true):

My wife is a premature twin. When she was studing Art History at the university, one day she wake up with an strong and unexplained pain on her thumb. Nothing seemed to explain it, so she decided to go to a doctor. But he doesn’t found anything wrong. At midday, she call to the small village where her mother and twin sister lived, at around a hundred kilometers far. “My thumb hurts me” … “which hand?” her mother asked … “the right one”, she said. “Well, don’t worry” her mother told, “your sister right thumb finger got caught this morning with the cars door, and its broken”. Casuality? whos never knows! Life is just plenty of wonderful things!

Your name/nickname: Raullen
Where are you from/live: crypto land
What you do: IoTeX cofounder
How did you hear about IoTeX: I cofounded IoTeX with @qevan @cbetasun
One fun fact or anything else you would like to share: I like to think about three basic questions that countless ppl thought before - “Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going?” – I consider them as the driving force for the evolvement of human society. I believe in prehistoric civilizations (there might be prehistoric blockchains, fyi); many civilizations must have tried many things before and we should do better.
