Council Nomination Application: Provide responses to the following questions:

  • Introduction
    • How did you find out about Telcoin and why are you excited about being a part of the Telcoin community
      • I discovered Telcoin shortly after ICO. I have been an active community member and contributor since. Telcoin’s community is top notch, as time has progressed the community has evolved to include all walks of life and fresh perspectives, the essence of decentralization. I am excited to be a part of Telcoin’s mission.
    • What experience do you have in interacting with the Telcoin Platform as a user, miner, and/or overall ecosystem participant?
      • As stated above, I have been an active participant in liquidity pools from the beginning. (Telcoin x Uniswap & Balancer circa 2020) The evolution and growth of these products has been incredible to be a part of.
  • Why should you be selected?
    • Why are you running for this position?
      • This position most closely aligns with my skillset and overall interest in decentralized financial services.
    • What unique skills, experiences and credentials do you bring to the role that will assist you in fulfilling your regular and special duties?
      • Specific to this role, I would leverage years of interactions with both TELx and the community at large. I have been preaching the LP word to anyone who would listen.
    • What changes and improvements do you plan to propose?
      • I would like to make the process of providing liquidity easy, as few clicks as possible. I would look to make the process transparent e.g., range of yields, or IL projections, what if scenarios etc… Removing the fear from the process, this is currently the biggest hurdle that I see.
    • How will you represent your miner group in decision-making processes to ensure their interests are being voiced and protected?
      • I’d maintain a high-level view of the ecosystem and end goals. All decisions need to be made with the best interests of both the platform and ultimately the end customers.
    • How will you keep your constituency informed?
      • Via Telegram, Discord and X
    • How much time can you dedicate to the role each week?
      • I work a regular full-time job and have a very busy family. I would like to keep the time limited to ~10hrs/week.

Thank you for your consideration.
