Hi, I’m C. Gizdov, from Bulgaria. I am an accountant, with 10 years of experience in Corporate Bulgaria in Operational Excellence.

Tell us how you found out about eden?

EOS Telegram channel, when Dan Larimer in March engaged with EOS community talking about what we now know as Eden.

What is it about the community’s vision/values/ideas attracted you?

Mainly the aim for more representative leadership through simple but very ingenious political play off process.

Why do you want to become a member?

To be close to the action, be able follow discussions and efforts closely plus my aim take part in additional mock elections and elections proper when the time comes.

In what way do you see yourself contributing to the community?

Basically through participation, practicing leadership and governance rooted in many years of experience in business, banking, sports and a range of non-profit associations.

If you were to become an elected Eden Genesis representative with a budget, how would you spend that budget?

I am acquainted with a number of well deserving projects and ideas although I would not at this stage indicate any fund recipient. If I were made in charge of some level of budget I would for sure have received input also from my fellow participants in the election. This together with input from the community and further research would be part of the evaluation how allocate funds. Final choice(s) would be determined through discussions and decision together with fellow members who saw me suitable and fit to be elected to such position.

Hello everyone, my name is Tyroyang. I come from the Chinese community and have been learning and using EOS since 2017. EOS is a revolutionary blockchain product both in terms of performance and community governance. Daniel Larimer is a thinker who combines philosophy, economics, computer science and other knowledge. I would like to follow him and participate in his products. Therefore, I want to join the Eden project management, so that I can promote Eden in the Chinese community and make our community stronger.

Tell us how you found out about eden?
I learned about the Eden project from Daniel Larimer on Twitter.

What is it about the community’s vision/values/ideas attracted you?
Where the members of the Eden community are equal and free, not controlled by the powerful.

Why do you want to become a member?
I want to participate in the governance of Eden community and contribute to its development.

In what way do you see yourself contributing to the community?
Promote Eden’s values and governance mechanism in the Chinese community, and invite more people to know about Eden project and join in.

Hi, my name is Kasey and I am looking for an invite into Eden. I am in the real estate business in southern California and been investing in the crypto world since 2016. I am a genesis eos holder from the ICO days. I have been a big fan of Dan Larimer ever since the first time I heard him speak, which lead me to bitshares prior to eos’s existence. I have been following Eden on Eos very closely since the beginning and really love the concept of fractal governments. I have always believed that eos would figure out its problems within the community with some organizing, in fact, I have never sold a single coin, only have bought more over the years.
I want to join eden because I think it is important for eos holders like me to contribute to the governing process. I don’t have any particular projects that I am promoting at the moment and probably wont be seeking funding this first election but I can see myself getting more involved as the system grows.

Thank you for the consideration, my handle on telegram is @kman10

Hey everyone!

Quick introduction…

I’m Rowan, and I’m from the UK originally but living in NZ right now.

I’ve been an EOS fan-boy since the early days, riding the ups and (mainly) downs with the community, often on the sidelines as a passive observer. I’ve struggled in the past to know how I can help as I think if you’re not a developer it’s easy to feel a bit lost and not understand how to help, but with Eden I now think that I can contribute something and hopefully in a more meaningful way.

My skills that may be of value to the community are:

  • Copywriting
  • SEO
  • Content marketing

Anyway, just a quick introduction to say hi, and with a bit of luck I’ll be seeing some of you for the first round of elections coming soon.

Yew!
Rowan.

Hi, my name is Peter Valencic I am a software developer currently working for a US-based company called Nielsen.
I have been heavily involved in EOS since buying the tokens in the crowd sale (genesis account holder). I primarily bought into EOS because I have loved Dans libertarian values and vision. In the past, I have worked with some “EOS” software developers including EOSTracker, Scatter and Anchor wallet (testing and reporting). I’m especially happy with programming and software testing. In the future, I would also like to continue with this and perhaps work with teams developing on the EOS platform. I’m open to any assistance in software development and testing. All the best to all members.

Thanks
Peter

Hello

  • Tell us how you found out about eden?

I got to know Eden when Dan Larimer presented this idea, and I read the forum about it. It seemed to me to be interesting

  • What is it about the community’s vision/values/ideas attracted you?

I like Eden’s values. It looks like Utopian Socialism, it was a French current of socialism which consisted in creating small decentralized communities based on principles, values, which make it possible to change the world.

  • Why do you want to become a member?

I want to become a member because I have been in EOS for several years and believe in EOS. I really like the Unified Politics Theory presented by Dan Larimer on Steemit, these are ideas that are very similar to that of the universal dividend also called “citizen dividend”.

  • In what way do you see yourself contributing to the community?

I have already created a local French EOS community with other friends.

  • If you were to become an elected Eden Genesis representative with a budget, how would you spend that budget?

I will promote EOS by attracting passionate users from all walks of life, do contests and try to educate people around EOS and its dapps and its potential.

Hey everyone.

Stoked to jump into the community and engage a little more (I’ve been watching from the sidelines a lot, but never really jumping in).

I found out about Eden from following Dan on Twitter, read the book (More Equal Animals) and was really intrigued by the concept. Since then I’ve been following along with its progress and am pretty excited about what it can achieve.

I love the idea of freedom of choice, fairness and freedom in general all around. All of those values are very high on my list.

Why do I want to become a member?

Well, I’ve been a full EOS fan-boy ever since the early days, I fell in love with the vision and have been around ever since. I got wrecked along the way, but I’m still a believer so I’m still here - although much poorer - lol.

And now, I guess I’d like to contribute in some way. I may not be a dev but I’m sure my thoughts and ideas can add some value to the community.

How will I contribute?

My skillsets which I think can benefit the community are my writing skills (I freelance copy-write for a living), and my SEO skills.

If I were an elected representative I’m not 100% sure right now how I’d spend the budget, but I think the biggest thing above everything else right now is positive marketing, so I’d probably start there.

Anyway, that’s all from me for now, I hope to add value to this community over the coming months.

Yew!
Rowan.

Hi all members Eden EOS community! :handshake:

I apologize for my English in advance :pray:

  • Tell us how you found out about eden?

I read about from Twitter @RealEdenOS

  • What is it about the community’s vision/values/ideas attracted you?

I love justice and I like the system of fractal democracy.

  • Why do you want to become a member?

I want to develop community EdenEOS, to attract here more than educated and perspective people.

  • In what way do you see yourself contributing to the community?

I want to make professional translation into Russian of the book Dan Larimer “More Equal Animals” and to promote it among Russian-language community EOS

As I am the owner and the founder of the investment project which works with EOS - I can attract in candidates of EdenEOS of perspective and purposeful people.

  • If you were to become an elected Eden Genesis representative with a budget, how would you spend that budget?

I want to extend as much as possible the ideas of fractal democracy, to create Russian-language community of candidates for EdenEOS and to create the maximum level of acceptance of EOS as means of payment for goods and services - I have own development of EOS of a purse which is successfully used in my young community EOS of investors. I can already begin this process in Ukraine now.

Hi all,

I’d like to introduce myself to everyone in Eden. My name is James Mart, and I’m from the Philadelphia area, in PA, USA.

Background

I worked as a C++ software engineer and team lead at a large semiconductor equipment manufacturer from 2015 - 2021. On the side during that time (2015 - 2018), I also co-founded a fintech company. For several reasons, our startup failed, but it taught me a lot about the difficulty in developing technology in the traditional financial and regulatory environment. I also got married in 2016 to a woman named Dana, and a few months ago we just got a dog (Poodle & Rottweiler mix :exploding_head:) named Koda.

EOSIO Involvement

Pursuing fintech innovation led me to discover Ethereum in early 2017, and EOSIO shortly thereafter. I’ve been following EOSIO since its announcement, and started experimenting with EOS development in 2018. I’ve met many community members at meetups in NY, Philly, DC, and Malta. I worked as a full stack dev with Peter Keay, Zack Gall, and Evan Schindler at Dappiness in 2019, I’ve been a co-host with Zack on Everything EOS, and a panelist on EOS Radio with Ashe Oro and Zane Whitener. My latest and most exciting endeavor has been to leave my full-time job to pursue a dream to develop decentralization infrastructure full-time. Currently that’s taking the form of working on the smart contracts for the EOS Power Network.

Interests

I am interested in fundamental economics, first-principles thinking, math, education, and decentralization. I am not very interested in chasing crypto investments / gains / yield. I am fairly active with relaying my thoughts on Twitter, less active in relaying long-form thoughts on Medium. I’m excited about making markets more efficient so future humans can coordinate and communicate values more effectively.

Eden intro questions

Tell us how you found out about eden?

  • I learned of Eden when Dan originally announced the idea.

What is it about the community’s vision/values/ideas that attracted you?

  • I read More Equal Animals within a couple months of its publication. I find the ideas in that book to be compelling, and a great start in designing future consensus mechanisms which can scale to coordinate future fractal societies. So I’m interested in the community’s vision & values to the extent they’re aligned with the fractal governance experiment.

Why do you want to become a member?

  • I want to participate in pioneering novel forms of decentralized governance, and at the moment Eden appears to me to be among the most exciting innovations in the space. Why now though? Honestly it’s to help the Eden treasury out by joining before the first election and gather another 200 EOS in exchange for my participation. I would likely have procrastinated longer if it weren’t for that offer from the EOS Foundation.

In what way do you see yourself contributing to the community?

  • Right now, my time is dedicated to the EOS Power Network project, and I have very limited bandwidth outside of that. So my direct contributions to the community may only take the form of participating in conversations and offering my opinion when relevant. I do, though, consider the EOS Power Network to be a form of indirect contribution to the cause, because I believe it’s an important piece of decentralized infrastructure which is necessary for the future of DeFi. It may even become directly relevant as a mechanism to facilitate the yearly Eden dues.

If you were to become an elected Eden Genesis representative with a budget, how would you spend that budget?

  • I’m not interested in becoming a high level representative right now, but if I was able to get any funding from the Eden treasury then I would use it to help my wife pay our bills. Unless I can start making money or get support from Eden/Pomelo, I have a limited amount of time I can spend pursuing these dreams before I will have to return to the traditional workforce for a paycheck.

Thanks, looking forward to meeting more of you and seeing you all again someday soon,
James Mart

Hey folks. Great to see such an active community! I’m very much looking forward to meeting you all.

Tell us how you found out about eden?

I’ve been following the development of EOS for quite a while. Ever since an EOS event in SF a few years back. I had some really great times there.

What is it about the community’s vision/values/ideas attracted you?

Fractal democracy. Decentralization. A knitting of individuals working towards a common cause. Seems too good to pass up, really.

Why do you want to become a member?

I want to be part of an active and growing community. Help push it forward. Hopefully in new, wierd, and exciting ways!

In what way do you see yourself contributing to the community?

Any number of ways. I have a decent technical and psych background. Really connecting with other people in new ways. Creating communities. Really energizing the development of niches I’m passionate about.

If you were to become an elected Eden Genesis representative with a budget, how would you spend that budget?

That would depend on the context and needs of the community. Pretty standard but ultimately I’d try to envision the direction that would lead to the most good for the community. Then set a vision and then move quickly on our journey together.

Other than this high level, I can think of a few concerted projects around EOS that may be useful. Smart contracts. Connection building experiments with other humans. Having fun even while even being productive!

Hi Eden, I’m Phoenix

Tell us how you found out about eden?
I found out about it on telegram through some of the posts by Dan Larimer

What is it about the community’s vision/values/ideas attracted you?
The values and vision are still being developed, but I think the ideals of accountability stood out to me are potentially very promising. I hope I can be a positive force to keep EDEN moving towards fulfilling a vision that benefits humanity.

Why do you want to become a member?
I feel I can provide another voice in the EDEN community, who weighs in on different ideas and initiatives, and provides information to the broader EOS community. I also plan to try to use my role to monitor issues of accountability and transparency.

I found out about Eden from following the community since being an ICO investor. I actively follow the conversation and banter daily in many of the telegram channels.
I am interested in exploring a different form of governance as I believe most systems of government around the world are outdated and broken. I am slowly reading through More Equal Animals but have a toddler that requires a lot of attention after I finish work.
I would like to raise more awareness of the project in Australia and think that it could be used in many settings that involve members of an organisation.
