Four months that took a Web2 developer apart.

1:20Yeah, I educate you. Yeah. And I’m curious to hear how did you find out about Web3 Bridge. I got to find out about Web3 Bridge with my brother. Um, so I was in school and my brother was like, “Yo, I was a web two developer.” So my brother was like, “Yo, come into web 3. It’s like the new web, you know, you need to learn about this stuff and there’s like a place where you can learn this practice.” Yeah.

1:42Nice. And why was this opportunity important to you that you came here? You know, you’ve been here now how long? Yeah, 4 months. Yeah. So, I I’ve been a guy like I’m a man of exploration. Like to explore too many years on the web and web three was like still like a mystery to me. So, I was like, let me learn this thing.

2:02Okay. And so, now why would you say you think web three or smart contracts are important? I mean it’s a it’s a it’s a way of um decentralizing things that’s making things free for everybody to um do things making things decentralized in the sense that everybody can now be their own boss can be their own server who can be their own um computer and do things themselves I mean it’s the next wave it’s the future

2:25why do you feel like uh other developers who haven’t yet entered into web 3 should explore this as an option uh web 3 is very very um accelerating It kind of makes you think about your old stack and your old knowledge. I mean, I came here 4 months ago thinking I was good, but then I got here and you broke it down to pieces and then beat me up. So, I feel it’s something that every developer should go for. It’s something I do.

2:51And so, you speak about being broken down and built back up really how would you explain your experience I guess with more detail of being a part of this cohort um in the community that that you were part of, you know, participated.

3:01Yeah. Um my whole experience in the web 3 space started January. I mean I was not the web 3 space at all. So I came here not knowing anything and right now I’ve bu like in the web 3 space currently in testing and that’s like a big win for me. So

3:20what are you looking to achieve moving forward? So yeah um you know I’m more of about um changing the whole scope of things. I always started learning programming while I was like a little younger but then I always wanted to be part of the founding guys. I don’t want to be the one learning always coming back from the back on the be part of the guys that are building and building and building the new things you know setting the old school and creating involving the ecosystem. It’s something I’ve always want to be a part of. I think that’s where I want to move towards too

3:49building my knowledge base moving forward and changing the ecosystem. That’s beautiful. And what would your advice be to someone thinking about applying to up three bridge?

4:00I would tell the person to just park his bags and come. It’s a great experience. You come here, you don’t have to cook. They give you beds. There’s lights 24/7. There’s data. What are you doing at Come here. Come here and just learn.

4:15And then one of the last things like to do is say booya in all of our interviews. How do you think we spell booyah at Wea Media? B O O Y E H. If that’s correct for me.

4:27Okay. Okay. Uh, okay. You want to count us down and we’ll say it? Three, two, one. Booyah.
