My involvement with Decentraland:

I have first entered this space in January 2022 and have been active within the community for over 7 months. I have been involved with many events, attended many shows, and have supporting different organizations as well as artists and creators within this space. The following are a few of the achievements and venues I supported:

Attended the MetaParty Fashion Week as a content creator in March.

Collaborated with individuals to publish wearables.

Became a reporter for the “The Decentraland Report (May 2022) and have been actively engaged in covering content from events, to interviews with members of this space.

Voted on previous DAO proposals.

Create unique posts on social media (Twitter, Tiktok, and YouTube).

Purchased many wearable creators by purchasing their wearables, promoting their giveaways / updates, and

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

I have about 2100 VP (1 Parcel, and name claim) in which I leverage to support new ideas and DAO proposals. However, I would like to have more because I can use my experience from the military and consulting to investigate the DAO proposals from a business perspective.

Many subcontracts in the past I have worked with IRL, had proposed their deliverables in the scope of work. I also had many incidents where a scope of work was not clearly defined, in which resulted in a loss of financial and poor-quality deliverables. Leveraging my project management background as a consultant, I possess the abilities to properly assess a proposal by identifying crucial gaps and vulnerabilities, especially if the work breakdown structure is not clearly defined.

My having VP delegated to myself, I can ensure the proposals are well documented, and provide an unbiased view from a business perspective and DCL stakeholders will be properly represented.

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

I foresee Decentraland being the premier metaverse, and many of the builders within this space are ensuring this vision is being well achieved. It will scale further with even more active users. Although, many other competitors are trying to build new metaverses, Decentraland- will always be the premier hub in terms of metaverses. The number of builders and leaders within this community is unrivaled. I also would like to show military representation within this space. Many veterans, and even soldiers who are deployed to various parts of the globe, can still have connectivity, and have the social interaction that zoom, face time cannot achieve.

My ultimate 5-year vision for Decentraland is having more large organizations and brands entering Decentraland, because of the quality community members, potential outreach to people across the whole globe, and leveraging the pioneers who have been supporting this space as subject matter experts. In doing so, members who have been in this space may bolster their career as a consultant or technical subject matter expert and work side by side with vast organizations.

As for activity, in the past 6 months I have been in this space, I have seen pioneers such as MetaParty, DiceMasters, Babydolls and many other organizations really pushing the boundaries to provide a unique end user experience. I foresee many organizations within this space leveraging this skill set in providing amazing gaming, gallery, and event experience for individuals.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

One of the biggest issues I have seen during my tenure in Decentraland is retention and scaling the platform. Retention is quintessential because we need to have many quality users not logging on once and then leave, but to continue logging on and being part of the community. Much feedback I received from the community was “there was nothing to do.“ However, many organizations have down a spectacular job in creating a one-of-a-kind end user experience such as MetaParty with their battle 2 earn system, and DiceMasters with their incredible RPG developed, and BVERSE with their networking and fireside twitter spaces. I think as time progresses, there will be even more organizations creating new experiences for individuals to participate in.

The last issue I have seen is up-scaling and marketing. Many organizations and even media outlets have attempted to cover topics on Decentraland and the metaverse in general, but fails to provide an extraordinary message to the possibilities within this space. Many social media platforms such as TikTok, LinkedIn, and reddit are untapped platforms that can provide amazing content in what Decentraland is, the benefits in this space, and ultimately exposure for Decentraland to upscale and attract quality users.

Thank you for your time and consideration, and I hope I can be the spearhead in some of these changes with VP delegated to myself.

Very Respectfully,

FriskyBumbleBee

Short Bio (280 characters max): Hello, I’m Mr. Dhingia! I am a builder here in Decentraland since November 2021. Since then, I have designed 20+ custom builds for various projects and individuals. I have a club in Decentraland and have hosted various events. I also stay engaged in the community through supporting many events.

(How long have you been involved? How did you contribute?)

My involvement with Decentraland:

I have been involved in Decentraland since November 2021. As stated above, I have worked with various individuals and projects in Decentraland to design custom builds. I have gifted a few of my builds to individuals who are contributing to the community. In my earlier DCL days, I helped many individuals with social media graphics, banners and videos, helping them launch and market their brands. I also help provide meaningful, ad-hoc feedback where I can and as I experience or come across many builds. For example, I have provided build feedback to users I come across at their parcel (i.e. collider issues, spawn locations, better use of materials/space). Additionally, I hosted multiple events at the Dhingia Club (144,-148) including an event for the Brazilian Community, and wearable launch parties. I have been actively engaging in the Decentraland community including attending events, providing wearables to the Decentraland Twitch Streamers for giveaways, attending Twitter Spaces, engaging in multiple Discord servers, and assisting with 3D modeling/design advice. I also provided a space for the Decentraland creator community to create videos/photos with a green screen near my club and has served many individuals so far. I have also created various content on my social media to help bring awareness to Decentraland.

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

I would like to contribute to the DAO to help support individuals and projects with unique ideas that will bring more creativity into Decentraland or projects that will improve the user experience. I also want to help ensure that DAO funds are being properly distributed to individuals within the grant proposals with a reputable track record, and individuals active in Decentraland. It is also important that these grant recipients stay active and continue to build before, during, and after their proposal is granted.

Since I have designed multiple builds,I am able to have an understanding of the scope of work mentioned in these builder-related grants.

I also want to help bring more diversity to Decentraland and ensure that a diverse mix of grant types are being properly passed (i.e. content creation, improvements to SDK, data analysis, etc). It is important that the right ideas are being brought into Decentraland, but also important to analyze whether enough funds have already been distributed to a “type” of idea already.

(What kind of changes do you want to promote in the DAO? What’s important to you?)

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

My personal goal here in Decentraland as a 3D builder is to design as many builds/active scenes which bring value and retain users in Decentraland. I want to see more land parcels be developed so users don’t see empty parcels. An ideal Decentraland would be to see as minimal grass as possible. I want to help provide my services to dedicated creators/individuals currently active or coming into the space bringing value. I see the value of retaining our most creative users and want to help keep Decentraland growing through their work.

In terms of Decentraland, I would love to see millions of active users engaging in the space, but also having a great user experience via unique events, games, and other experiences. This includes ensuring more users are able to access the space (i.e. mobile, desktop, VR), but making sure these experiences are flawless (minimal server issues, computer lag or audio issues, etc).

So far, I love seeing how global Decentraland has become, connecting people from multiple countries in the world. I want to see more countries and more communities evolve in this space as a way to express their ideas, culture, and thoughts. For example, I am based in India and would love to see more of my community here.

(What do you want to see? What is the role of the DAO in it?)

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

To me, marketing Decentraland is one of the most important factors and an issue currently. I want to see more advertisements of what Decentraland is, what events are here, what brands are coming in on various social platforms or mediums (i.e. Web2 Social Media, newspapers, TV ads, radio shows, web3 platforms, etc), as this is important to show users what is being done here. I feel like Decentraland has built an amazing portfolio of brands, builds, and unique experiences that have not been fully marketed to its potential.

I also want to see more presence in future conferences surrounding emerging tech, Web3, metaverse, and VR. Ultimately, the goal is to get more users aware of the metaverse, but also be provided with the most resources to be educated about utilizing the platform. With Decentraland being backed by MANA, it is important to educate non-crypto users how the platform works with cryptocurrency. Additionally, educating those who may not fully understand the capabilities and importance of the metaverse in the current digital age.

In the coming months, more metaverses are going to be created, which will increase competition for Decentraland. We, as a platform, will have to make our best efforts to keep users engaged and retained in Decentraland through many experiences/IT innovations/ smooth DCL functionality. Interoperability will also be a huge factor and how we communicate/network with other metaverses to bring more communities to Decentraland.

My involvement with Decentraland:

I spent nearly most of my time on Decentraland. I kept building things and holding events in Decentralnad. Feel free to check our work, especially MetaGamiMall, 146,60. Also, I kept providing help for the modelling-type developer and want to do more in the future as I believe there will be more need on this side, and there is not enough support for them.

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

I have a decent understanding of Decentraland as a project, and I got those experience from building and exploring thus I believe I can provide some useful opinions regards to DAO proposals, and I am willing to get more engaged with the community.

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

Personally, I think Decentraland will be one of the biggest WEB3 metaverses in 5 years. And it has a great potential to be the biggest one. It will have exciting activities all the time, lots of traffic of course, and a place to celebrate the spirit of Decentralisation. And DAO is one of the biggest factors in how Decentraland can be Decentralised. DAO will be the future form of decision-making group, all for the future of Decentraland. Also, it’s a way for everyone who speaks their voice. Of course, you need to do something to make your voice loud, but at least everyone can speak about their idea equally. And this leads to a better form of community, collective decision making, and collective building.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

I see 3 evident issues for now. First, the threshold for development is too high as one of the biggest metaverse in web3. If we cannot let everyone can create things, then the project cannot expand on a great scale. The good news is DCL team is aware of this and wants to change this with the help of SDK7. Second, the total experience of DCL is not quite ideal, from the webpage design to the world laggy issue, we need to make DCL more professional, and luckily, DCL is aware of this issue as well and started to change it. Third, the DAO needs a better form of rules and ways to execute the rules. Now that we can see DAO is working, but we all know there are too many things to improve here, i,e the centralisation of votes and media rights in a small group of people’s hands, and sometimes, I would smell politics here. However, I think it will have a good future and really looking forward to it.

-Photography and videography (with featured work on Discovery Channels Shark Week, National Geographic, and many other publications)

-Photoshop, Premiere, Blender

-Social Media Management/Marketing/Growth

My involvement with Decentraland:

I have been involved with Decentraland since the initial land sale (the Terraform Event back in 2017). I invested in both land and the museum district. Originally I had a gallery built on my original land that I bought during the auction. Since then we have moved the gallery to my brothers land, where we are using it to build The Ocean Meta project. Our current goal with The Ocean Meta project is to onboard the ocean community to Decentraland, everything from the underwater world to surfing. We have a combined following between The Ocean Meta team of over 190,000 people that are interested in ocean related content. We plan to start onboarding these people once Instagram rolls out the full NFT features it has planned with Ethereum and Polygon integration. Until that time, we are focusing on building and contributing to Decentralands development.

I have personally invested in multiple projects in Decentraland and with The Ocean Meta project, we have been showcasing ocean related art, have used it to host ocean themed gallery and educational learn 2 earn events, with many future events coming. Along with multiple collaborating events with Decentral Games, Snarky Sharkz, Dice Masters, B-Verse, Vroomway and other DCL projects.

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

I want to contribute more time to helping the development of Decentraland by participating in governance and proposal discussions. I want to see Decentraland stay in the lead of other metaverse projects, both because I am building my project, The Ocean Meta, here and because Decentraland offers a truly decentralized version of the metaverse vision. I think it is very important that we ensure that the decentralized metaverse is the one that will gain mainstream adoption. Having 5+ years of experience in investing and researching in the cryptocurrency/blockchain field, I think I have gained valuable knowledge that will help with Decentralands governance and proposal discussions/votes.

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

My 5 year vision for Decentraland is to see it grow into the main metaverse platform that hosts a variety of content, from gaming, entertainment and educational builds. To see it become interoperable with multiple other metaverse platforms, both with decentralized and with private/centralized built platform. Allow users to move seamlessly with one account between all of these worlds. This also includes a web, client, and VR version of Decentralized that is capable of running high graphics, with low lag, and the ability to handles hundreds-of-thousands of users at a time.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

The most important issue for Decentraland is to create a feature rich base layer that makes it both easy and highly customizable for developers to build to the limits of their imagination. This base layer has to remain decentralized and open to multiple metaverses to eventually become interoperable with Decentraland. By creating a platform that opens up the limits of what is possible to be built here, it will attract the developers needed to create amazing gaming, entertainment and educational experiences here. The users / mainstream will come, once the platform is ready.

My name is Luke, I’m 29, and I live in the US, but I go by ile on discord and twitter. My expertise is in architectural and 3D spatial design. I lead the Varc (virtual architecture) District and am doing ongoing research into how organizing Land with channels allows users to get more use out of their Land.

My relevant skills:

Traditional architectural education and training,

3D modeling (Rhino, Sketchup, Blender),

Self taught SDK Developer

My involvement with Decentraland:

I’ve been involved with Decentraland since 2017 before the ICO and land auctions. I originally posted the idea for an architecture district on github and five other individuals agreed and contributed Land to the 19 parcel Varc District. Today I am the only fully active member of the district and use the land for experiments with the SDK and architectural form.

I recently graduated with my masters in architecture where I did thesis research on the benefits of using channels to organize space in decentraland (see link above). Basically, channels allow landowners to take full advantage of their parcel’s square footage and polygon budget by reusing both infinitely. Also using channels to organize space informs a new style or architecture that is novel and unique and goes beyond copying IRL architectural tradition and form.

I check DCL discords regularly, answer questions about building and workflow when I can, and try to experiment with the SDK and building new scenes daily. I’m fairly active in the DAO and generally support proposals having to do with content creation or improving the platform and governance system.

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

This application is in response to recent discussion on VP distribution and whale votes. I think our voting system needs to evolve beyond Mana = VP in the long term, but the best short term counter to whale power is an active and passionate coalition of voters with VP.

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

This might be unfeasible or incompatible with how DCL is set up, but I see Decentraland evolving into a world of worlds. Where Genesis city becomes sort of a directory and each parcel of Land is a gate/link to privately hosted decentraland environments similar to how realms work today.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

I think one of the largest problems with Decentraland is its barrier of entry and accessibility. I worry that as other metaverse platforms mature, many new users will overlook Decentraland because it is too expensive and decide to use other more centralized platforms because they are free to build in. I’d like to see some sort of Freemium model for new users in Decentraland where every avatar is automatically given an out of world tutorial scene that they can experiment with and invite people to before buying Land in Genesis City.

Another large issue with the platform is its lack of methods of interaction between avatars. Right now users can’t really do more than text or voice chat in world. I’d like to see functions like trading NFT’s, delegating VP, delegating Land operator rights, and voting in the DAO, all become actions avatars can easily do in world. This, I think, will move a lot of community activity off of 2D apps like the DAO page, discord, and the marketplace, and into Decentraland.

We are still yet to hit the bottom of the bear market and really see some economic problems that will effect us all in the space and investors. Preparing to have resources to sustain in the period of the down time and to look into a form marketing to provide as a form of support to the DAO and Foundation. Development of cross platform and multiverse experiences will be much more in demand and will be vital to the growth and expansion of web3/metaverses. A form of proof as well to those issued grants for approved proposals should provide a X amount of time from the date funds granted to provide proof of use of funds and proof of project advancements.

I would vote for Canessa to be a delegator, her approach is well reasoned and based on sound priciples of community being the fabric of Decentraland’s platform, in terms of a roadmap we need to have innovationand horizon scanning at the core to assimilate opensource and emergig tecnologies. this will help keep the platform and its community relevant and interoperable in the face of Metaverse competition. We need to maintain integrety of the land but i agree we need to provide access to land that is a low or in some cases zero cost as barier to entry in exchange for visionary building and innovation that will benefit everybody and decentraland.

I would vote for maraoz.eth to be a delegator as the founder of OpenZeppelin which is the defacto standard for smart contract security he has a deep understanding of security in this space which will be essential, as DCL progresses further into cross chain support. He has also been a early contributer to Decentraland since it was a twinkle in the Dev teams eyes.

My relevant skills (comma-separated values or tags):

Writing, editing, basic graphic design, community building, marketing, PR.

My involvement with Decentraland:

I joined Decentraland in February. Since then, I have started my weekly newsletter about the platform and its creators. In addition, I interview Decentraland people for such publications as Hackernoon, NFTPlazas, etc. I occasionally do Twitter space and interview creators live. I plan to contribute to more web2 and web3 magazines to write about the platform and its citizens.

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

I would love to be involved more in platform growth. I can bring my writing and publishing skills to help projects get their messages out there more simply and understandably. I also have my own online magazine (find it in my links), so I have experience creating content that can reach people without paid marketing. And have worked with top media outlets where I earned my media articles without paid promotions (Forbes, Guardian, TechRadar, you name it).

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

I want to see Decentraland in more clear and simple light communication-wise. There are so many great things that people don’t know about at the moment because it’s hard to find or gather all information. I believe Decentraland will scale its content and messaging in more detailedly: every great event deserves the spotlight in the media. And I do believe that DAO must help creators who will carry that flag.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

Without the technical details, I think the biggest challenge is gathering information all over the place. As a writer, I gather information from all over the place: chats, Twitter, newsletters, Discord, etc. It’s messy and not reliable and often very complicated to read. The media don’t get the chance to be the first to know what will happen next in Decentraland. The media wants to be the first to write about it, and it’s usually too late for the story when the party is tomorrow.

To help in the funding of promoting creators and builders for helping in the on-boarding of new daily users.

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

I would like to see a fun and safe place for users, along with builders and creators, help to mold and evolve a metaverse where everyone is accepted, and opportunities for equality and monetization becomes a reality in the ever growing Web3 space.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

I personally think how the voting and who can participate, along with hidden votes should be a priority for the long term. In the short term I would just like to see a more robust and stable environment and the UI being a strong selling point to persuade and on-board new users.

Singer, Real Estate,Sales, Meta-performer, 3D Artist/Design, Music Production

My involvement with Decentraland

I originally came across DCL through some coinbase tech friends back in 2017. I was an investor before dipping into Decentraland. I instantly fell in love when I entered the game Back in 2020. I immediately saw all the possibilities of what can be created, especially in a decentralized environment. After I invested, I decided to get a deed with Aetheria. It’s been about 3 years now as an active citizen in Decentraland. It all started with me Singing Live and also doing Yoga. As a twitch streamer, I figured I could do the same here, so since then I have collabed with brands within DCL to pursue my career but also provide value within the community. So far I have performed over 200 + shows in the Metaverse. I perform weekly and also contribute by creating experiences and expanding my skills of creativity. I onboard new artists with my plot so users can explore and also become creatives within this space. Blogging/Vlogging is another form I use to write articles within the Metaverse.

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

I want to Delegate because I feel like I can help with Solving Problems. As a user for the past 3 years now, I see a few issues that I have faced. Within every problem, there is a solution. With my background in sales, this was a skillset I had, and it can be applied here too so that can be an asset. I also feel I can be a great candidate to really represent Justice, Fairness, and also equality. I would also like to vote on proposals that would enhance but also support projects that have the right interest at heart for building strong foundations within Decentraland. It’s important to represent the voices of people who don’t have the courage to speak and I’d like to be that representation for them.

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:

I most of all want to see Decentraland Succeed. I believe in DCL and I am Very Passionate about what I stand for and want to see it through to the end. 5 years from now I would like my career as a musician/artist, and in Production be at the top of my game but also to help other artists on their journey as well. Using my skill-sets, and creating a space for artists to feel safe. To be part of the change, for Artists having more control over their creativity financially and also creativity. Creating a space where they know they have the right resources for that.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

I think the most important issue is having new users stay in the game. I think it can be quite intimidating to some users when going into an unfamiliar space. There feels like a bit of gatekeeping and lack of resources when it comes to building, SDK, and the financial backing to create within the space. Making it more accessible to everyone would be a huge game changer and limit the barrier to entry.

My involvement with Decentraland:
Online since Feb 22, a heavy user and follower, “natural DCL evangelist”
MANA maximalist, Forum member, DAO voter

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:
I want to promote more involvement, discussion (drive engagement and understanding before rejection) and listening.

My 5-year vision for Decentraland:
The go-to place for free time with friends and discovery. With today’s entry price (LAND) - it will have to be sponsored is some way. DCL is the place for branded entertainment and creator economy.

What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?

  1. UX. “Cross platform is harder than cross-chain” - using DCL.exe is still a challenge an a huge area for improvement
  2. Adoption. Driving adoption is crucial. This will be driven by gameplay (making DCL more CPU-friendly), and marketing partnerships (it’s still the Web2 that drives Web3)

Great community member based on real values, I will support ideas and proposals based on the merit of the value the will produce and what they will bring to the entire DCL community

I can model on vox edit, i am learning some blender now, I am proficient in AutoCAD drafting and 3d design
My involvement with Decentraland:
I am very active in the space, I stream content and have given over 1000 wearables away. I would say I have over 4000 plus hours in game and appreciate the wide range of style, creativity and hard work the community put into there spaces! The great things DCL does as far as events is not comparable to other web3 games! its a great experience to be able to put time and effort and actually earn and be a part of it all! Now I have the DCL name PeterparkerWeb3.
(How long have you been involved? How did you contribute?)
I have been playing decentraland for a year now and i hold over 1200 wearables and having given away over 1000 wearables NFT for free. I have created 2 item in the market with some help of the community. Anyone who is new I will have them find me on twitter and i send they items so they will enjoy the game more and hopefully grow here.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:
I feel like I am a great person who will stand for DCL as a true member that cares about the entire game progression, I only want great things for everyone in this space!
(What kind of changes do you want to promote in the DAO? What’s important to you?)
I would like to promote more clarity on the DAO procress and get more invlomente from new players that may not have the money invested but will be here a long time and have them enjoy creating in DCL
My 5-year vision for Decentraland:
I see DCL being on top of the web3 space and similar to a virtual facebook where people come to interact with friends and share experiences like playing games together, watching movies or music shows and meeting awesome people across the globe.
(What do you want to see? What is the role of the DAO in it?)
I would love to see more promotion, and focus on bring new players to show them all th egreat things dcl has to offer…so many changes in just the last few months I think we need more eys on what is happening here, more interaction.
What do you think is the most important issue in Decentraland?
Have a fair and balanced DAO that is based with active players that actually use the content provided so the game and space can grow.

(What challenges will we face in the next 12 to 24 months?)
I think the entire crypto market is struggling so that may be the hardest hurdle, but during this time i think its great to pull new players in that can afford to be involved at different levels. I am not rich by any means but i put a lot of what i have into the game and sometime I wonder if its not right for me because I dont really have a voice in a place i put most of my free time. I think showing new players the possibilities here and can really boost the users. DCl should to see the perspective from new players and people who may have questions. Thank you for any consideration and i welcome any discourse on what i can do to help, and if you would give me the honor of delegation of the VP.
