Cover Letter

I am excited to submit my application for Council Member. Since joining the platform in 2021, I have been deeply committed to its growth, innovation, and community building. My journey as a builder and event organizer has been fueled by my passion for creating immersive experiences that inspire and engage users.

My vision for Decentraland’s future is one of continuous evolution and inclusivity. I see Decentraland as a thriving digital metropolis where creators, brands, and communities seamlessly interact. To achieve this, I aim to:

  1. Empower Builders and Creators: By advocating for enhanced tools and resources, I want to ensure creators have the means to bring their visions to life.
  2. Strengthen the Event Ecosystem: Expanding platforms like UnMonday to feature diverse creators and foster collaboration will encourage greater participation and user retention.
  3. Bridge the Virtual and Real Worlds: Building on my experience hosting IRL DCL events, I envision more hybrid events that merge real-world activities with Decentraland’s immersive environment.
  4. Expand Accessibility: Ensuring Decentraland remains accessible and appealing to a global audience.

Decentraland has already revolutionized the concept of a virtual world, and I am eager to contribute further to its dynamic evolution. My extensive experience with building, event management, and community engagement positions me well to help shape its future.

My 5-Year Vision for Decentraland

I aim to design more builds and active scenes that provide value and retain users in Decentraland. By collaborating with dedicated creators, I want to ensure Decentraland continues to grow and thrive through innovative experiences.

I envision millions of active users enjoying seamless access across devices (mobile, desktop, VR) while participating in unique events, games, and cultural exchanges. Enhancing user experience by minimizing technical issues will be key to achieving this vision.

Decentraland’s global connectivity is inspiring, and I aim to foster the growth of diverse communities, especially in regions like India, to showcase their culture and ideas within this dynamic space.

I am confident that my experience, vision, and dedication align with Decentraland’s mission. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute further to this groundbreaking platform.

Hello, for now, I will vote to abstain. I have only had positive interactions with you, so thank you for that. However, I have also read unprofessional conversations between you and perhaps “difficult members” of the community. I would like to understand if you have become more mature and will disregard any nonsense, focusing solely on the interests of the DAO and its objectives.
Thank you,
Jenn

Hi, Mr. Dhingia. I think you are great for the community and grateful you are in Decentraland. I had a great time hanging out Unmondaying with you and everyone! Truth is… I feel everyone being considered for the council and everyone voting should should all spend hours with each other so we can get to know each other better and really discuss things. We all want the same thing and have different opinions how to accomplish them. One thing is that we need a solid team… like the perfect recipe, you know, one person may work well with 3-4 certain people but that same person with incompatible people would lead to an unstreamlined team. I once sat in a town hall (I think that was it) and you were in discussions several people and there was a lot of arguing from all sides. If for anything, I think this process of finding a council is also an opportunity for us to speak honestly with each other… giving each other an opportunity to hear how others feel that may in term help us in the long run. I am only voting no because in that conversation things kept on getting heated from your side. I definitely understand you feel strongly about your positions but we also need to be the bigger person and accept how other people feel, even if we don’t agree. People have a tendency to listen when they feel listened to. Anyway… I hope this helps because we all need to be able to communicate with each other so we can get down to what works. much love man! I look forward to Unmondaying with you soon!

Yes. MrDhingia has been hosting UnMondays every Monday for us to enjoy, mini games for us to play and have the chance to win wearables, created amazing buildings, and was the creator of my unique face. A yes for me!
