Greetings to all,
My name is Vinicius and I am a Brazilian geologist. I have worked in the mining industry for several years, at companies such as Vale and BHP Billiton. I have also had my own small consultancy company to provide services in this industry. Since 2009 I have started doing some reasearch into several issues of our time and that culminated in my involvement in the cryptocurrency sphere since 2011.
Recently I had the chance to join the Founder Institute to have a practical training about entrepreneurship and startup creation and this was an opportunity I could not discard. During this course we have several assignments to deliver and this is why I am writing you.
I have assessed a few problems that I believe hinders mass adoption of distributed ledger technologies (DLT) and I have selected two of them to focus on: difficulty with technology, which part of the population may experience; and lack of programming skills, which most people can relate.
I am passionate about these issues, because I believe that DLTs can be a tool to empower the individual and to reduce the overreaching power of banks and government.
At this time I need to interview a few people to complete my assignment. I am looking for people who are aware of blockchain and DLTs who identifies with the above mentioned problems, that is, people who has difficulty with technology in general and people who are not programmers. It would be a plus if this person is employed in a company that is planning to implement blockchain or some other distributed ledger technology.
I would greatly appreciate if you could refer some of your friends or acquaintances to be interviewed.
Thank you all and take care,
Vinicius
