About Me: I have been making content about Crypto and Distributed Ledger Technology for about 2.5 years. My passion is creating easily digestable videos for the "everyday person", with the main goal of helping people visualize the possiblities of Distributed Ledger Technology Beyond Finance.
In December I put out 12 videos about the Polkadot Ecosystem (linked below), these videos were very well received by the Polkadot community. I create ALL the content completely by myself, and this funding will help me to not only continue to produce content at the same rate but also increase exponentially.
