I think we can go harder.

🎉 Big News & Exciting Times Ahead 🎉 As many of you know, for the last 2 years, I have been working on Akita in my evenings just after I get my kids to bed and up until the launch of Omnigems I had been funding everything out of my own pocket. It's been an insane & amazing journey thus far and I can confidently say that we are just getting started. From subscriptions to plugin wallets to decentralizing social media, we envision Akita becoming a web3 everything app that exists without compromise. Along the way I've had a consistent desire to find ways to spend more of my time building for the Algorand ecosystem & community and am excited to announce that I've been hired by the Algorand Foundation! It's important to me that I emphasize my commitment to Akita remains the same & that this new job will allow me to spend roughly 3x as much time working to build up our ecosystem & community. Much of the work I have been doing prior to being hired was work that I strongly felt could help not just Akita but really anyone wanting to build on Algorand & working for the foundation gives me even more opportunities to do that. Regarding the 3 xGov proposals that we had pass, I will be able to receive that funding ( as they all passed shortly before I was hired ) but I will not be allowed to submit additional proposals ( makes sense ). Regardless of my eligibility on xGovs I'm committed to following through on the milestones I set for proposals 116 & 117 that would have been proposed in the following xGov periods; albeit at a reasonable pace given my commitments with work and Akita. Akita is and always will be a grassroots movement, I now have a fantastic job that can support myself and family while getting to work on the technology I fell in love with just a few years ago EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. I believe this is by far the best possible path for myself and the sustainability of my work on Algorand & Akita. Thank you all for supporting me in our journey and I cannot wait til the next announcement ☺️
