Greetings family and happy start to the week, my name is Leyner Aponte @laponte243, an active member of the Near Venezuela and Near Hispano guilds.

I’m from a city called Valencia in Venezuela :venezuela:, I’m an information engineer with more than 5 years of experience developing software, after working for a few years in business intelligence I went back to study programming and learned various languages such as php and python, it was in mid-2020 that I began to read more about the world of smart contracts, I studied solidity with the cryptozombies :zombie: platform and in 2021 it was that I met Fritz, he taught me about this magnificent community of Near protocol, I made the NCD with Near Hispano winning first place and now I am in DIR, in which we are looking to give a new face to literature by giving it a home in web 3.0. using nfts.

Hello everyone in the Near community. My name is Frank Cardenas and I introduce myself from Caracas-Venezuela, with the desire of sharing a little of my trajectory on cryptocurrencies’ world and specifically my great experience in this community. My travel started with the bought of an Antminer S9, in the middle of the year 2017 that, by inexperience in this world, never turned on or worked on the right way. I want to mention that, if that machine would have turned on in 2017, today I would have been able to generate about 5 bitcoins, which today represents almost 200k. Because of that mistake, we learned about the mining subject and Mineria Virtual was created, an enterprise that since 2017 until today was handled by selling courses of mining and trading.

The Enterprise has worked by many ways along its trajectory on Venezuelan and international market, what started as a little entrepreneurship became a well-known enterprise at international level, especially in countries such as Argentina, Colombia, Spain, and Chile. At the same time, we work for the Binance enterprise with its Binance Spanish project, making publicity, webinar and a group of activities with the goal of spreading the cryptocurrencies adoption.

Today, Mineria Virtual has given more than 1000 courses of trading and mining matter, our students handle on a fluid the cryptocurrencies and understand the value that the particular projects have. Thanks to all that experience, I got into Near really convinced that it’s one of the most solid projects of the present moment.

I will share you two posts, one with near OWS content and the other with trading content.

Trading Post 9.7k views, OWS 12k

The principal focus that I want to apport to the community is the marketing knowledge and trending topics, my plan is humanize the Near community media in general, with activities where users that are part of their net, that work and live day by day to make grow up the community, start showing their faces on social media, for the public understand that it’s not just a protocol, it must be clear that behind the screen of a computer or a cellphone, human beings who believe on a project are participating and feel comfortable sharing it. My first goal will be the creation of a traders net inside and outside the Near community that can give professional analysis of the projects that right now are in development. The goal is to make trading tournaments and create strategic channels with OWS so all can enjoy analysis and intelligence in the market. As a second goal, the marketing plan will humanize the DIR, searching spread its functionality and how you can participate with them. This will be successful with a group of videos of our developers that, in the present day are DIR, on those videos can be seen: what is DIR? How can I participate in this movement? What do I have to know as basic to participate?

In conclusion, the ultimate goal is make Near well known not just as a cryptocoin, but the first project that proves what its team is made of and how they work day by day.

Hello everyone! My name is Sebastian Gonzalez, I from Venezuela and I am 18 years old. I start programing with gdscript to c++ developing game engines like unity, godot, etc. With the experience of c++ I turn into frontend and backend with NodeJs, Express, React and VueJs.
One day I get a link to an course of blockchain, the NCD L1, from my university (Universidad Metropolitana) chat, I heard that before so I was curious and I take it. And get into its world of blockchain and Near was super, the first time I see something like its, computers connecting with others like a swarm and executing functions of code that i wrote. That’s why I decide to enter in the DIR program with the idea of my partner @DarioFS. The idea of my partner is a marketplace of professionals services, BlockJobs, but no for only sale my services, you can create a dispute and get back your blocked NEARs, mimic Kleros. This project is supported by @cloudmex-alan and @Cristian and all the others coworkes of DIR in NEAR hispano. In its discord link you can see how the project is going.

Hola muy buenas noches para todos, yo soy Miguel Lizarzabal, tengo 26 años, pertenezco al estado Mérida y parezco mas chino que gocho… De allí mi apodo el chino por eso me mentalizo en ser tan financieramente libre como Jack Ma el fundador de Alibaba.

Ya de entrada notan que soy muy soñador, pero como dijo Albert Einstein: “Si cabe en tu mente cabe en tu mundo”.
Intelectualmente quise ser abogado, pero en el tercer año de mi carrera renuncie, muchos me dicen loco, porque estaba a poco de graduarme y que tenia todo para ser grande en mi futuro oficio profesional.

Si estoy loco lo se, pero la verdad no quiera seguir viviendo en un modelo educativo obsoleto, solo para llamarte brillante por dar la respuesta correcta a algo que a la hora ya estará derogado.

Soy autodidacta y gracias al Internet puedo seguir preparándome en los temas que desee aprender y los que necesite realmente aplicar, tener conocimientos hoy día va mas allá de retener información, sino en como aplicas y gestionas lo que sabes.

Muy aparte de lo jurídico, soy creador de contenidos, storyteller digital, redactor de contenidos, actor, animador, modelo, coach de actuación,asesor de marca personal e instructor de marketing de contenidos.

Como ven me dedico al arte y al marketing digital, donde la creatividad no descansa.

Soy nuevo en la comunidad Near y mi misión es convertirme en un contribuyente de valor, al crear contenido escrito o interactivo, como también en marketing.

Les confieso que antes le tenia como miedo a la palabra Blockchain, pues creía que eso solo era cuestión de informáticos o ingenieros en sistemas, pero al investigar sobre esta tecnología, me di cuenta de su poder y su alcance y me animo el sentido de porque un día estudie derecho, para poder ayudar y crear una sociedad mas justa y siendo activista de la blockchain podremos darle un mejor porvenir al mundo.
Estoy abierto a seguir aprendiendo y a colaborar junto a ustedes y poder traer a Mérida el ecosistema Near, creando un grupo solido porque en esta ciudad hay diferentes perfiles talentosos que pueden aportarle mucho a esta comunidad.

A thought on Life: A Journey towards the unknown

No one tells you what to do with your life. No one really can give accurate advice on which paths to follow. Plain simple its a road with no signs and really not much besides a long journey ahead, which is being molded by you when you travel through it.

This was my life back then, and I had all the correct advices.

At eighteen years old I graduated from high school and had to choose a career path. I was at the time a professional tennis player and my parents didn’t want me to gamble the best years that I had to achieve my full potential, or whatever the hell that is.

I got into engineering school and on the second year of the career I knew that was a complete mistake. On an Algebra II class I just said, okay well that is just not for me. In front of the class, got through that door and never came back.

Later after that got into Business school, still didn’t think that was for me, but ended up studying three years either way. Got a secondary degree that allowed me to work or at least get a decent knowledge of economics in general. I Still have to finish that career.

On March 9th 2020 I decided to travel abroad and work outside. I have done everything by the book, got the required paperwork and documents to present and enough money to get a working visa on Denmark. On March 10th immigration offices on Copenhagen closed due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Had to return to my country (I am from Argentina) and later on August that same year got the chance to work abroad on the United Kingdom (London) and what would you know. November 5th they would close the entire country, once again had to go back.

At the beginning of 2021 I had nothing, I was back to square one with no studies, no job, and living with my father. Heartbroken by what I thought was the end of my good years and that I had become a washup and no good for anything because I “didn’t follow the steps that everyone does” and because of that I have nothing and don’t have a proper job… I went all in on crypto. With just 600 dollars which was the money I got from selling my phone.

Thanks to a friend of mine I was introduced in this incredible world in which there are new technologies everyday. I was baffled with the information that was circulating and how far we have come building lots of functional chains and new bridges onto a new world

I got into a project as a Community Manager (Apexit Finance) and learned a lot from it, when it was my time to depart I gave my gratitude and looked into new projects. A lot were really useful, others had a very friendly community, others just fun to hang around.

And then came Near.
@FritzWorm gave me the huge opportunity to take a part on it and right now I’m trying to do anything I can to give back and create more connections and get as many people as I can into this incredible ecosystem that is Near and that is Blockchain on itself.

Thanks to that crazy and wise year that 2020 was, from the rock bottom down below I could reconstruct a new version of me. I managed to get really good calls on crypto and make a living out of it (surely it was a little bit of luck and some knowledge on economy). And learned an important truth about life based on what was my worst moment which had transformed me and granted me the possibility of living a new life.

That there really is no correct path. There really are not correct advices or something that can assure you that you will succeed or that you will get a safe future. Or even that you will at least like it. I had the best advices there could be and (luckily of course) I could do anything it was supposed to be done. And that got me nowhere as planned.

And the best thing I could have done is risk it all. Never let any advice or someone who is not yourself decide what would be better for you. You have to ride that road that is meant only for you. And only you will fill that journey with memories that will decide where is headed.

That is the best way to live this Journey towards the unknown.

Thank you very much if you read all the way through, hope it brings some clearance to whatever it may clear :blush:

Special Thanks to everyone along the way. This part of my journey wouldn’t exist if you hadn’t been here alongside me @FritzWorm @Butneversaved @Alecaseg @Jessica

Hi everyone.
My name is Victor Querales i’m from Caracas-Venezuela, i have been a crypto enthusiastic since 2015 when i made my first bitcoin investment. Then in 2018 i bought my first 2 Antminers. Had a Degree in Economics from the UCAB and my experience living in a country like Venezuela with the highest inflation rate in the world and bad policy makers made me understand the potencial of the decentralized cryptos. With that in mind i try to learn more everyday reading and joining crypto comunities like Near Venezuela.

Hello my NEAR Friends!

Who would have thought that finding a good craft beer would take me to the NEAR world?

- A Brief story of how I got here

I’m Ulises Marin @ramgor. Some time ago, I was searching where to drink a good craft beer in Caracas. Looking for it, I visited Cheers factory craft beer. Time Before, NEAR was just one more Token to speculate with in my trades. It was there at Cheers Factory where I heard about NEAR protocol as a tremendous ecosystem it is.

This is how I started my journey in to the NEAR world. By discovering how a blockchain-powered project can be much more than the sum of its parts, a whole wide universe of possibilities where I found not only a decentralized way to give and to receive back for your contributions and efforts in the system while everybody build it together, but I place to share ideas, creativity, initiative, and make new friends!

.
What I Like

Traveling of course! (who doesn’t?). I also like Brazilian Music a lot, this took me to start a MPB (Popular Brazilian Music) band which is been active for more than 30 years, it has been the best paid hobby to me! We are still playing!

This activity gave me a deep knowledge of The Portuguese (Brazilian) Language. now I can speak it with just a little accent and using even the local slang according to the region in Brazil.

Relevant skills for this ecosystem and knowledge in Computing and Technology Area

  • I am a Computer Analyst by profession, and an eternal self-taught student.

  • Free Software Specialist

    • GNU-LINUX Server Administrator: LAMP (Linux, Apache, MYSQL, PHP), multipurpose Web servers (Wordpress content generator, MOODLE online teaching tools, and others), Database servers (MariaDB, MYSQL), Mail servers, DNS servers, or any service under GNU-LINUX.

    • Workstation Administrator under GNU-LINUX: Development, graphic design, office suites (LIBREOFFICE, OPENOFFICE) etc.

  • Trilingual

    • Fluent (speaking/writing) in English, Portuguese and Spanish (Native Latino)
  • Trader: Cryptocurrencies, Stocks, Commodities, index.

    • Solid knowledge in technical analysis.

My contributions in NEAR

It’s been a short time since I joined NEAR (mid-December 2021), my activities have been so far:

Promotion in social networks:

  • Creation of twitter account @NEAR_Alerts to promote the NEAR PROTOCOL (+100 followers)

Un saludo para todos, me presento, soy Albany Hernández, pertenezco al equipo de Near Valencia.

Tengo 23 años y soy estudiante de derecho de último año en la Universidad de Carabobo, a lo largo de mi vida, mi camino se ha orientado a las causas sociales, resultando en mi participación en programas de este calibre, tales como FENIX, financiado por ACNUR (ONU) dónde fui promotora, invitada a formar parte de ese proyecto por @Arturoahs quien ya explicó con anterioridad en qué consiste el mencionado proyecto, asimismo, durante mis años en la universidad, he colaborado como dirigente estudiantil en el recinto en donde he llegado a ser miembro de la Federación de Centros Universitarios de la Universidad de Carabobo.

Tuve la oportunidad de conocer y colaborar con la comunidad de Near gracias a @Arturoahs, quien me invitó a formar parte del equipo de Near Valencia, en donde he podido cultivarme y aprender sobre el mundo de las criptomonedas y específicamente Near Protocol dándome cuenta que es un área en la que me gustaría seguir desempeñándome, habiendo ya contribuido en el apoyo de la logística de las reuniones y seminarios de planificación realizados por el equipo de Near Valencia, además de organizar un webinar, la transmisión y publicación de videos en las plataformas de redes sociales y entrevistas de radio.

En lo que respecta a mis aspiraciones en el ecosistema de Near, mi intención es seguir cooperando con la comunidad para la difusión y expansión de Near y todas las ventajas y beneficios que nos puede traer con su inclusión en nuestra vida como sociedad, aparte de seguir nutriendome sobre este mundo tan interesante y consecuentemente crecer profesionalmente.

Saludos, familia NEAR.

Siempre es difícil para los filántropos – altruistas, “versar a tiempo” … de “uno mismo”; sin embargo, dada la iniciativa de este equipo encabezado por @FritzWorm, he aquí una descripción de quien ha sido este servidor, Francisco González.

Oriundo y residente de una hermosa tierra de montañas, clima fresco y amplio desarrollo urbano: Naguanagua, estado Carabobo – Venezuela; orgullosamente venezolano y magallanero (fanático del equipo de beisbol profesional venezolano, que esta noche se ha coronado CAMPEÓN de la liga, jajaja). Amante de la música (escucharla, cantarla, tocarla, bailarla), en sus múltiples géneros, pero de manera especial: la música de Venezuela. Así he crecido, con ese profundo orgullo del que ya hice mención.

Ese amor por nuestro país, sus tesoros, potencial y sobre todo su gente, me llevaron a formarme profesionalmente en el área epicentro de todo desarrollo: La Educación. Soy licenciado en educación, mención Orientación y Asesoramiento, con especialización en Técnicas de Facilitación Grupal y Maestría en Educación, mención Orientación y Asesoramiento. De igual forma, ese catalizador personal de “vivir para servir”, me llevó desde que tenía 13 años de edad a ser preventor comunitario ad honorem, en el programa antidrogas de Hogares CREA de Venezuela, trabajando desde entonces hasta el presente (23 años de labor) con una gran cantidad de niños, niñas, adolescentes y adultos jóvenes, previniendo el consumo de sustancias psicotrópicas, embarazos en adolescentes, maltrato y abuso infantil y juvenil, entre otros. A la par, he tenido la oportunidad de desempeñar mi labor como profesor en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación, de la Universidad de Carabobo y Universidad Arturo Michelena, he fungido como coordinador de protección y bienestar estudiantil en el municipio Guacara del estado Carabobo, y vicepresidente ejecutivo de la Organización No Gubernamental FUNDALIVE, dedicada a la atención integral de la familia (Salud, educación, alimentación, entre otros).

A mis 15 años de edad, comencé a indagar y vivenciar el contexto político venezolano, iniciando así una de las etapas más significativas de mi vida, donde hasta arriesgando la vida, he defendido los principios y valores democráticos que creo y profeso por doquier. Como activista político y luchador social, he diseñado, coordinado e impulsado en todo el territorio nacional, programas de organización vecinal, en pro de una ciudadanía organizada, participativa y democrática.

En este contexto sociopolítico, siendo estudiante de pregrado fui secretario de Asuntos Estudiantiles del Centro de Estudiantes de Educación – UC, y elegido posteriormente durante dos periodos consecutivos como Consejero de Facultad (Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación), líder y fundador de movimientos estudiantiles defensores de la democracia (2007), trabajé como funcionario adscrito a la Presidencia de la Asamblea Nacional de Venezuela dese el año 2016 hasta 2021.

Me uní a NEAR, por invitación de @Arturoahs, líder valioso y apreciado en la comunidad NEAR Venezuela, formando parte del equipo Near Valencia, donde desde mi praxis profesional como docente universitario e investigador, he aportado a la ejecución de estrategias educativas presenciales y a distancia en la ciudad de Valencia; he fomentado acercamientos exitosos con la principal comunidad universitaria de la región central del país, la Universidad de Carabobo, y en la actualidad me encuentro diseñando junto a @Arturoahs la propuesta de un programa educativo dirigido a desarrolladores, community managers, creadores de contenido, diseñadores y estudiantes universitarios de carreras afines, para potenciar a través de la socialización, el conocimiento y uso de la tecnología blockchain (Near Protocol), en Venezuela.

Mis expectativas: seguir aportando holística e integralmente a la materialización de un mundo más democrático, y creo que NEAR protocol, los DAOs; forman parte de ese anhelado mundo.

Hello NEAR Community.

Hoping you are doing great and safe, I am very thankful for the opportunity of meeting all the NEAR Venezuela members, their dreams, and expectations in this community.

My name is America Castro @ame9986. I am from Venezuela and live very close to Caracas.

I have a degree in International Affairs with a Human Rights specialty. Though I did not practice for long my profession, it was a knowledge and growth time.

Traveling is one of my biggest passion. I try to fulfill this passion every time I can, but as you know, money does not grow on trees, so I had to figure out other ways to earn money while I kept traveling.

That’s the reason I self-learned how to build and design websites and trade with crypto.

My path through trading taught me a little about blockchain, but I always associated it with financial matters only. How wrong I was!

By the end of 2021, I met @Jloc at a craft beer event, where he explained how NEAR Protocol is the future :sunglasses:. Since then, my awareness of blockchain has changed.

In these few months, reading and learning about NEAR Protocol have made me more aware of the possibilities of this blockchain and its scope in different areas.

For me, it is such an honor to be part of this community, learn from everyone, and help grow NEAR Protocol in Venezuela and Latin America.

Continuing the discussion from [Forum Meeting] Near Venezuela Members:

Hi everyone, I’m glad to meet you all here. My name is Carlos Aponte and I’m just starting in NEAR, learning about the whole ecosystem. I studied chemistry at Universidad Simón Bolívar and since 2006 I’ve been working in the Venezuelan water sector, coordinating water quality projects in river basins and aquifers, and also policy proposals, advising, and consulting related to water management and water and sanitation services. Between 2014-2016 I was in the Netherlands studying for a master degree in Water Management, It means that I am basically a water professional.
I started to be involved in blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies by curiosity in 2020, a totally new world for me. I discovered the potential and opportunities within this technology and I made my first steps, looking for information, trying to understand all of this, and making some investment in cryptocurrencies.
I found out that I could combine my professional background with the technological possibilities offered by blockchain in order to develop initiatives and projects related to water management, basin protection, climate change adaptation. In that way, I was looking for options and developments to apply mi ideas, and at the same time, learning about blockchain and following different projects.
I came to know about NEAR by chance, I read a post made by @Mineriavirtual in Instagram inviting to join this community. Since the begging, I realized that the NEAR ecosystem is what I was looking for, and the ideas I have can be applied here.
Therefore, I’m very enthusiastic about NEAR, learning about it, and following my learning path. It is very nice that we already have people and projects related to environmental issues like @RichardDelgado and @jblm it means that I am not alone in this and it is possible to put in practice real solutions to the people and the country with blockchain technology.
