[ANNOUNCEMENT] What an AMAZING NEAR journey!

[Grace]

Dear fellow community members, colleagues and friends,

What an AMAZING NEAR journey!
Feeling like I have just stepped down from the best roller coaster ride ever!

Tomorrow, 15th July, concludes my exhilarating experience as a core contributor to the NEAR Ecosystem. The journey has been filled with unexpected twists, challenges, learning experiences and rewarding moments of friendship and genuine collaboration that can only be found in our space, the web3 space.

I am proud to have been part of building our Community; always pursuing the vision of a decentralized world with the help of web3 ideologies and tools, coupled with the continued support of the guilds, remarkable community contributors and NF colleagues.

I will keep close to me the valuable lessons learned from the experimental initiatives we carried out together; some efforts achieved our objectives and some failed to meet our expectations, but in the end, we were fortunate to have had the freedom to experiment and learn as we built.

I would like to thank each one of you for your openness, for your guidance and more importantly, for your support/mentorship throughout my tenure as Head of Community (MarCom), and later when transitioned to the Regional Hubs role.

I remain bullish about the Web3 Ecosystem we set out to build together and the part that NEAR plays in the development of the foundations that will bring to reality a true Open Web.
