CYBER REPUBLIC <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Update</strong>/Issue <strong>18</strong><br />
Can you speak of your contributions for<br />
Elastos and the CR in the past?<br />
I have done a couple of meetups in Brisbane<br />
starting from November, 20<strong>18</strong>. I did a<br />
presentation at the Sunshine Coast again for a<br />
local Hackathon community in January, 2019. I<br />
met the organiser at the Crypto Coast<br />
convention, and I will be attending their next<br />
hackathon which is next month.<br />
Apart from that, I have been reaching out to<br />
participants at BTC meetups in my area as I<br />
see this as a good bridge for our community.<br />
I'm also part of crypto Facebook groups along<br />
with AusTrader (Aaron) to put in a few msgs<br />
here and there on Elastos.<br />
What do you like to do for fun? Any hobbies<br />
or activities that you like to engage in with<br />
friends and family?<br />
I like to play soccer and futsal. I enjoy going<br />
to the beach and I try to go camping<br />
whenever possible at a place called<br />
Stradbroke Island (2nd largest sand island in<br />
the world - Queenslanders are lucky in that<br />
we have the world's 3 largest sand islands off<br />
our coast). Learning about economics has<br />
become a hobby of mine recently, and I also<br />
enjoy chilling with friends and listening to<br />
music. I used to play the drums frequently. I<br />
occasionally still play but music is something<br />
I'm very passionate about.<br />
I have been catching up with two devs who<br />
have shown interest in Elastos. One is working<br />
on a harvesting technology for vineyards, and<br />
he is looking at Elastos' possibilities though<br />
nothing concrete has been promised.The<br />
other put his hand up late last year but due to<br />
the recent state of the CR, it was turned down<br />
until things are clearer.<br />
What future meetups do you have planned?<br />
And how do you plan on engaging the<br />
Australian community even more?<br />
I plan to do a Meetup in May even if I don't get<br />
reimbursed, but that may be the only Meetup<br />
I organise out of pocket until I can get funding.<br />
I plan to attend more Meetups by other<br />
groups - mainly hackathons and BTC and ETH<br />
community Meetups. I will be attending a BTC<br />
meetup next Thursday to make more<br />
connections. I'm also part of some Australian<br />
business networks. One network spans across<br />
the following states and one country:<br />
Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and<br />
South Australia with New Zealand being a<br />
recent addition. I am an alumni of one of their<br />
series. I plan to spread Elastos via this<br />
network. I may write an article on Elastos<br />
quarterly, depending on how things go.<br />
