Hello everyone,

My name is Alex, but you can call me Syphilis. I discovered StarkNet thanks to Samy Live’s interviews on the Journal du Coin, a French media outlet. I have recently become deeply involved in this ecosystem. Although I didn’t join early on, my primary objective was to learn the basics of coding and master the art of running nodes on the blockchain. That’s why I started CS50.

A few weeks ago, armed with my newfound knowledge, I began running nodes on my side, for various projects like Shardeum, Nibiru, Gnoland, and Massa. Eventually, I stumbled upon StarkNet’s tutorial for running a node. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of figuring out how to run my own node and, in the process, discovered the vibrant StarkNet community and ecosystem.

I have engaged with people within this ecosystem and have come across some fantastic projects. I noticed that some French individuals were struggling to run their own nodes, so I offered private assistance and even wrote a Medium article in French to help them out. Now, I am eager to contribute to this project and embark on my first DAO experience.

I am excited about the possibilities that StarkNet offers and the potential for decentralized governance. Becoming a delegate would allow me to actively participate in shaping the future of StarkNet and contribute my unique perspective. I am committed to sharing my knowledge, assisting others, and fostering a strong and inclusive community.

I will make sure to use core values such as honesty and resourcefulness in my decision-making as a delegate on Starknet. I am committed to making transparent and trustworthy decisions for the community, while using my resourcefulness to find innovative solutions and drive progress.

I believe I would make be a great delegate as I am highly ambitious and dedicated to the Starknet ecosystem. I am deeply interested in StarkNet and constantly strive to learn and educate myself about the latest developments and emerging projects. I am committed to staying informed and making well-informed decisions, and I am eager to share my knowledge and contribute to the growth of the community.

Thank you for considering my application.

Soy Cripto - Delegate Profile

Introduction

YouTube: Entrevista a DEVELOPER Advocate * STARKNET * | Nos CUENTA todo sobre STARKNET | STARKEX | STARWARE - YouTube

I am a self-taught web3 enthusiast who has been passionate about Blockchain and cryptocurrencies since 2019. Over the course of three years, I have consumed every available article and technical documentation on the subject. In 2022, I made the decision to share my knowledge through social media platforms.

I am active on YouTube and Twitter, targeting the Hispanic community with content focused 80% on rollup technology. I provide education and current context.

I have a strong desire to become a delegate because it aligns with all the content and education I have offered to the Hispanic community over the past year.

Having this privilege in a project like StarkNet is doubly gratifying for me, as I am an avid student and admirer of its technology. Over the past year, I have shared multiple educational details in the simplest way possible with people interested in understanding it.

From complex concepts such as the functioning of a validium to what a Stark proof is, I have provided explanations in an accessible manner. I even had the opportunity to conduct a dedicated interview with Henri Lieutaud, Developer Advocate for StarkNet.

On the other hand, I want to be a voice in some way for the Spanish-speaking community, as I believe that this representation is also of interest in the pursuit of a decentralized protocol with diverse participants.

My desire is to ensure that every individual who listens to me feels a true representation and voice within StarkNet, thus fostering a genuine sense of belonging to the protocol.

I have to be honest and admit that I have no prior experience as a delegate in other projects. However, I have a thorough understanding of all the mechanics, philosophies, and intentions behind building a protocol that makes decisions based on decentralized governance.

Based on this, I commit to studying, reviewing, and responsibly reflecting on each proposal I have to vote on. I am also fully willing to be an active participant within the community and support the paths that are chosen to be taken.

Dear delegate, I encourage you to consider a profile like mine, which represents many individuals in their everyday lives. It would be an honor for me to begin my journey with StarkNet.

Conflicts of Interest:

To date, I don’t believe I have any significant conflicts of interest, as the community that follows me through my accounts has normalized the creation of content about StarkNet.

On the contrary, I am almost certain they will say, “This is the right person for the job.”

Lastly, I also encourage you to visit my YouTube channel and explore the playlist called “Rollups.” It is the greatest proof I can offer of my genuine interest in this technology and, evidently, in StarkNet.

With over 50 videos related to rollup technology in the past year, it is truly genuine evidence of my commitment.

Hello there, i’m Argetlames, known as Mathias too. I’m the top 1 french translator :fr: of the french Starknet Crowdin and trying my best to become a useful member of the Github community :robot:.

I believe that for a technology to become mainstream, it’s necessary that the builders behind all understand the official content produced about the company and its solutions.

I want to be a delegate to be a part of the one of a kind story that the Starknet community is building. People like Sam from Jdc, Louis Guthmann and Abdelhamid Baktha inspired me and made me want to get better and better at general and technical sides of the L2 King Solution.

I plan to fulfill this challenging task by staying constantly informed about the technical, philosophical, and community developments of the Starknet ecosystem :sparkles:. To achieve this, I’m following and engaging with true chads of Starknet, mentioned earlier. :muscle:

My main values as a delegate will be to be hardworking (no vote should be missed), open to new ideas from other ecosystems (such as Cosmos, which is full of excellent developers and visionaries), and regularly seek the opinions of token holders to ensure that this delegation of power is justified and monitored.

I actively participate in the voting processes of multiple communities and engage in discussions regarding the progress of protocols or projects such as Aave, Illuvium, Agoric, and others.

If you want a delegate who genuinely cares about the evolution of the protocol while remaining pragmatic and committed to the economic and philosophical interests of their delegators, then choose me. :wink:

Moody Salem (sendmoodz) delegate profile

I’m the founder of Ekubo Protocol, a next generation AMM for Starknet, and recently an active member of the Starknet ecosystem. As the founding engineer of Ekubo, I’ve written over 15k lines of Cairo. I’m a believer in the power of open-source and excited to contribute. I’ve shared some early governance contracts written for the latest Cairo with the community, that I believe will help other protocols more quickly bootstrap on Starknet.

I would like to be a delegate so I have the ability to influence the technical direction of the Starknet protocol. Starknet’s success is vital to the success of Ekubo Protocol. I am highly aligned to make sure the proposals that are voted through contribute to the long term success of Starknet. I plan to review each proposal for its impact on builders and vote accordingly.

Please delegate to me so that my developer experience feedback for proposals carries more weight, to ensure the dapp ecosystem continues to thrive on Starknet.

Summary: Focused on Long Term Goals and Empowering Local Communities

Hello, I’m Yaman, a passionate contributor dedicated to creating impactful projects for our community.

Introduction:

Since May '22, I’ve been an active part of StarkNet. I’m also the founder of buchain.org, one of the leading blockchain community in Turkey initiated at my university. Additionally, I’ve served as a Teaching Assistant for a Blockchain Development course at my university Boğaziçi University I graduated.

With a background in social sciences, I’ve been delving into web3 since 2017, keenly observing its evolution and focusing on the fusion of social sciences and web3. I value StarkNet’s understanding of building a true community and plan to make decisions favoring long-term benefits for this robust community, including technological ones.

My Contributions:

Projects on Starknet:

We became a finalist at OnlyDust Hacker House with fairraffle.io, a trustless raffle platform. Launched the first StarkNet project on mainnet from Turkiye.

Currently I am developing a game at Dojo (started at pragma hackaton) and interested in community good projects on StarkNet. We fostered collaboration with various projects within the ecosystem with our starknet onboarding NFT project awarded with Early Adopter Grants.

Why Consider Me:

My commitment is to uphold fair governance and boost local communities. I’m also drafting guidelines to help communities ensure transparent and balanced governance.

My efforts in creating the StarkNet Local Community in Turkey have reached over 300 individuals through various events, inspiring many projects and developers to contribute to StarkNet.

My Understanding of Tech:

While I have not a background at cmpe but, I’ve been following the evolution of web3 since 2017, constantly learning and growing in this field. So, before any vote, I critically search for all options and deliberations of experts and give my decision which fits for long term goals and expert options. My academic background in social sciences helps me focus on the confluence of this discipline with web3, which is governance.

Other Blockchains and DAOs?

My dedication is solely towards StarkNet. I also following other L1’s since understand their deliberations which helps me decide better for Starknet.

Potential Conflicts of Interest:

In any situation where there may be a conflict of interest, I pledge to be transparent and disclose such conflicts via my social media channels. I was previously involved in projects such as an NFT project on StarkNet (Earlystarkers.io) and a game called hunterpunks.com. If a conflict arises, I will refrain from voting.

Vision for StarkNet:
I support long term goals and people who have long term goals. Starknet knows how to build community and tech, so I just want to amplify it and keep the starknet strange.

Who am I

Bonjour fellow Caironautes,

My name is Antoine and I am candidating to become a Starknet delegate. I am an engineer working in the crypto space for almost 3 years now. My first job was to work in a Big Four trying to help big companies entering the crypto market. It was cool, I met a lot of great people but it wasn’t technical enough for me so I had to quit. And then I ended up here. I’m in this ecosystem for a while now, maybe since December 2021. In the beginning I was staying in the shadow, trying to learn alone but in Paris a lot of Starknet meetups are organised so I started to meet other people from the ecosystem. I made a few friends now which is incredible.

At some point I noticed that Starknet was missing a little something, not a lot of projects or people were talking about security. I decided to spend my time trying to learn smart-contracts security in order to be able to apply that full time on Cairo contracts. That is what I do right now :slight_smile: . Also, I’m contributing to several projects with OnlyDust like Madara or the Cairo book.

One last thing to say about me and my career, is that I’m going to teach crypto to engineering students starting this September so you can expect to see hordes of new Starkneters next year.

Why me

Good question. The easy answer would be “why not ?”. Another would be that I’m investing all my time in Starknet, trying to figure out what could I personally do to make the network better. I kinda felt in love with the community and its values (for instance the public good mindset). I’m also convinced that what we are creating will finally democratize crypto for good.

Me as delegate

You know, I’m french and what french people do is basically talking politics and express their opinion all the time. It’s in the genes. Why wouldn’t have a say on something I’m using on a daily basis and on which I invested so much of my time. That is exactly what I intend to do as a delegate.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to read this and don’t forget to #KeepStarknetStrange

Twitter handle :@piapark_eth

Overview:
First start with how I got into Starknet ecosystem. I started with Starkling. Then I realize this language is based on Rust. So I started Rustling. And tried to find somewhere to practice Cairo and Rust. Joined some Telegram groups like core star, madara, kakarot, dojo, Alexandria, etc. I contribute to Dojo, Cairo Book, and Madara. And whenever I ask a question and share thoughts, this community is so welcoming and tries to help and share pie and loves to think on the deep technical side. Then recently in Starknet Prague, I gave a talk about storage proofs represent Herodotus, where i worked since this yr! Further more, sometimes I like to build some cool projects top of Starknet, like to share some Cairo 1 informations ( now i’m full-time Cairoing :joy: )

I had so much fun and I learned from this community it self, so would like to be a delegate so that I can also participate on direction of this community :slight_smile: Especially if the proposal that relevant to developer experience, already have strong interest for it :wink:

Thank you for reading!

Presentation

Hello, Fellow StarkNet Enthusiasts! :wave:

Allow me to introduce myself - I am Cheelax, from France.

A Year Ago - The Spark: About a year ago, I had a fortunate encounter with the StarkNet ecosystem through a presentation by Abdel. The strong commitment to decentralization and the groundbreaking innovations propelled by Zero-Knowledge (ZK) technology touched my curiosity. It was then that I knew I had found something special.

Delving In: With excitement brewing, I immersed myself in the ecosystem. I followed the inaugural StarkNet cohort, studied Starklings, and took my first steps as a contributor by working on projects like the Cairo book or Dojo. My most recent endeavor was the Pragma hackathon, where I met amazing individuals who share the same fervor for StarkNet and eager to share.

A Crossroads: As of now, my path is converging towards a future deeply tied with StarkNet. I am thrilled to announce that I am parting ways with my Web 2.0 development job to embrace a full-time journey with StarkNet. This decision is fueled by the endless possibilities that lie ahead and the inspiring community that I am proud to be a part of.

Paris, Here We Come: The excitement doesn’t end here - I’m looking forward to meeting some of the ingenious minds I’ve interacted with online, in Paris soon!

As a Delegate: If I have the privilege of being a delegate, I aspire to be vigilant t in maintaining the friendly spirit of this blockchain that initially drew me to this blockchain. I am committed to representing the voices of builders and technology enthusiasts who value the core principles of this ecosystem.

I am here to grow, learn, and build alongside all of you. If there’s anything you find unclear or if you have any suggestions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

À bientôt (See you soon),

Hello, my name is Danilo. I am a Co-founder and DevRel at Kakarot ZkEvm.

I joined the Starknet community in July of last year and was amazed by the technology and especially the community. Since then, I have tried to attend as many events as possible, participate in Hacker Houses, and contribute to Open Source projects.

Today, I am focusing on Kakarot, but have also contributed to Beerus and submitted one small PR to Madara.

I love building and enjoy building with friends even more. As a delegate, I believe I can contribute to tech discussions while considering how we can construct a thriving, resilient, and inspiring ecosystem.

My core values are Truthfulness, Integrity, and Trust. I also enjoy challenging myself and encouraging others to try things that at first they might think it’s impossible.

Conflicts of Interest

As I am working in Kakarot, there might be conflicts of interest and bias in favor of Kakarot. Overall, my view is that as the Starknet ecosystem thrives, so too will Kakarot. However, the potential for bias still exists.

I really appreciate the opportunity of being part of this journey and looking forward what we all build together.

My best regards,

Danilo Kim

Profile

I’m quite a newcomer to Starknet, discovered it in July 2022, with the MatchboxDAO hackathon. I then worked for a couple of months on a perpetual exchange platform on Starknet, all in the good old Cairo 0, while still maintaining my Web 2.5 job. I finally made the leap and went full Web 3 on Starknet in November 2022 and boy as that been an adventure: joined Topology who I worked with for 6 months, all the while making my first steps in the Starknet opensource ecosystem, working primarily on Kakarot but also Beerus, Cairo 1 compiler and Dojo. I then recently made the move from Topology to join the young team of Kakarot! This also started my journey on Madara, which has been such a great project to work on, for my own rusty knowledge and also a further deepdive in Starknet.

Decentralization has always been a big topic for me, above scalability. I believe Starknet will reach a high level of scalability, given the amazing tech at its disposal. I also think security won’t be a problem, which only leaves decentralization, which I will make sure to push. I feel like Starknet is now almost a home, made some friends and had so much fun here, I want to keep it open and fun for everyone. And the way to get there is to thrive for its decentralization, which leads me to apply as a delegate. But actions speak more than words, that is why I will in any case continue working on projects to push Starknet’s decentralization forward, working on a decentralized sequencer as Madara, light clients, provers and more.

Thank you for your consideration and let’s keep Starknet strange !

Hey, my name is Apoorv Sadana. I am the founder of Charged. My journey in Starknet started last year with Starknet CC India, where I got to meet all the amazing people in the ecosystem. This was followed by my visit to the Starknet Hacker House in Israel, where I got to understand the technology in more depth and decided to work full-time on it. Ever since, I have been working on a lot of projects in the ecosystem, especially trying to boost the dev tooling and infra side, as Starknet and Cairo are still very early. I am currently actively contributing to Madara but I have contributed to multiple projects over the last few months

  1. Madara
  2. Cairo-vm (Lambdaworks)
  3. Starknet ID
  4. Ledger Fresh

Apart from this, I have also built some dev tools as a part of Charged to make development on Starknet easier than it is today. These tools include

  1. Starknet Raycast Extension
  2. Starknet Transactions Breakpoints Extension
  3. Starknet Transaction Simulator API

I was also the winner of the recent Cairo 1.0 Hackathon by Pragma (I came 2nd and won the Lambdaworks bounty for the Cairo tracer). Before Starknet, I was the founding engineer at another web3 company for 1.5 years and I have also previously worked as the founding developer at other web2 companies and founded one myself.

Overall, I am currently working full time on Starknet, trying my best to uplift infra and dev tools within the ecosystem and this is why I would like to be a delegate in Starknet as well. As a delegate, I would like to do my best to ensure that Starknet takes the most optimal decisions regarding the tech and ecosystem to ensure we reach the goal we all set out to achieve. Specifically, as I have been contributing to Madara, I am interested in voting for proposals that ensure app chains and L3s can flourish on Starknet. I am confident about the Starknet Stack and I feel that it would play a pivotal role in the coming time for Starknet’s success. I believe I have the required technical knowledge and background to do the same and I am looking forward to being a part of the delegate team.

Background

Hello, I’m Gabin, co-founder of Focus Tree, a gamified focus timer powered by starknet. I have a strong background in engineering and infrastructure (ex-Datadog) and have been building in the crypto ecosystem since 2021.

Starknet

In June 2022, I decided to investigate and forge my own conviction of where the crypto space was going. I quickly ended up being bullish on validity rollups on Ethereum, and after checking every solution, I decided to go with Starknet (you can check my rationale).

Not only was I being bullish on Starknet, but I was also convinced that dApps needed to go mobile-first if we wanted to cross the chasm of adoption. This is why I quickly started working on starknet.dart, a flutter SDK to build cross-platforms dApps on Starknet. Now, anyone can build a biometrics-secured mobile wallet in <15 min and focus on its business logic.

We launched the first version of Focus Tree for Lisbon Starknet event in november 2022 and quickly received 20k+ downloads, which finished to convinced us there was a strong interest for what we were building. After raising a pre-seed end of 2022, we’ve been continually building all through 2023 and are planning to go mainnet in Q4 2023.

Beside that, I’m super bullish on Madara L3 appchains since I believe the combination of almost zero-cost transactions + paymaster scheme + account abstraction can be the endgame solution to provide self-custody in a decentralized manner for everyone.

Core Values & Governance

If you chose me as a delegate, I will try to vote according to the following values:

  • Self-sovereignty: I will vote against every proposal that goes against self-sovereignty, self-custody, censorship, etc. This is crypto ethos, but it’s still good to remember why we’re here for.
  • Pragmatism: This is something that many people could disagree with, but I value innovation and pragmatism a lot. For example, I think the trade-off of security with alternative DA layers is worth it for the sake of usability and adoption in the case of non-financial apps.
  • Transparency: For every vote I will make, I will tweet with the rationale behind my reasoning.

Conflicts of interest

All my work activities are related to Starknet, so I’m 100% committed to the success of this ecosystem. Also, as the co-founder of Focus Tree, I might be biased, so be careful.

Thanks for reading so far, I hope to represent at least a small chunk of the starknet ecosystem,

Gabin

Profile

I’m the CTO of briq, been around the starknet exosystem for the past 2 years (almost). With briq, I’ve done presentations at many conferences, and more recently contributed to the Cairo 1 compiler in both commentary and code. As part of the ‘old-guard’ of cairo builders, I have first-hand experience of usability on starknet, and I’ve been part of many discussion in the past on our wants and needs for it.

My main mission as a delegate will be to represent builders and make sure that starknet maintains a steady course towards mainstream usage, decentralisation, and performance.

I don’t have any past experience in a DAO, but I have been part of the 0 A.D. core team for over 7 years now, which is a free open-source project that has very decentralized governance, which is a relatively similar experience. I am a strong believer in open-source and understand a lot of both its good and bad sides.

Conflicts of interest

  • Founder of the briq project. This makes me massively more likely to support Volition and throughput improvement
