I have nominated @JoaoKury as a #badgeholder for #RPGF3
I believe it is crucial to have a badgeholder from Brazil
I hope this helps generate greater awareness in the region about the optimistic vision and adds to the diversity of perspectives. I met JoĂŁo at ETH Samba in March this year, and we had a brief conversation and have stayed in touch with the promise of doing something together in governance.
Months passed, and we met again at the side event of @SEEDGov in ETH Argentina last month, where we were able to have a more in-depth conversation and catch up on the challenges facing our communities in our countries and their relationship.
JoĂŁo is a very proactive person, speaks three languages, and has his own crypto news outlet (@ModularCrypto). He has extensive knowledge of governance, public goods, and scalability.
I have no doubt that he will be a responsible and critical badgeholder.
My decision is also based on this comment.
It has been on my mind for months since I read it. While nominations are from individual to individual, I believe personal decisions are political. I belong to two organizations (@SEEDGov and @ETHKipu), both of which are small, growing teams that do not monetize their content and rely on grants. Within our limitations, we try to bridge the language gap with the Brazilian community. I think we should take a proactive stance on a personal level.
Last year at rpgf2, I don’t recall seeing a project in its description that announced its impact would be directly in Brazil or in the Portuguese language (I am not considering Translators or Bankless translations because these translations are part of a big initiative, not a specific initiative focuses on Brazil). So, the least I can do is nominate a Brazilian brother for this role.
I hope that more badges are awarded to people from different countries, not just Brazil, specifically to those who are building from the peripheries.
