Witnet Ambassador Program Update

Two months ago, we announced Witnet Ambassador Program and received tremendous interest from the community. Today, we are thrilled to share the updates and next steps of the program.

Our community’s interest in Witnet Ambassador Program has exceeded all expectations we initially had. Over 340+ applicants have applied to be part of the program! We have interviewed 20+ of them and are happy to announce our first ever witAdvocates cohort.

Witnet Foundation decided to keep the Ambassador Program flexible and straightforward, as it’s an experiment for the whole ecosystem. We are planning to expand the program in the future as we grow and improve.

We’re thrilled to announce our first cohort of witAdvocates and hear their stories!

“I have been involved with cryptocurrencies since 2017. Since then, I have always been fascinated with the technology and freedom it offers. Thus, I wanted to get actively involved in developing the ecosystem around it. When I learned about Witnet and how they tackle the oracle problem, it felt like a good opportunity to help grow the project. Now, almost two years later, here we are.”

We are excited to empower the pioneers in our community and lead the change together. As mentioned before, we will launch additional programs and following witAdvocate cohorts in the future. Witnet Foundation foresees ongoing experiments and iterations of Witnet Ambassador Program. Though, what’s next?

Together with our rockstar witAdvocates, we’ll create & run community-driven initiatives to benefit and grow Witnet ecosystem. Starting with the upcoming Witnet Grant Program, each ambassador will provide value in their area of competence and help us build a bright future for the Web3 world altogether.

Thank you for being with us! We are all here to grow the web3 ecosystem and shape the future of the decentralized world!

Stay tuned! More and more exciting community initiatives are coming soon!
