Hi, I am Mexi from Monterrey, Mexico.

My Delegate Address is

https://gov.scroll.io/delegates/meximalist.eth

I’m passionate about decentralization and community-building in the Web3 space. With over 20 years leading projects and 7 years of experience in the blockchain space, I’m deeply committed to fostering collaboration and innovation. I’m on X as @meximalist.

I recently launched @BandaWeb3, a development hub for Web3 technology in Monterrey. We’ve just opened new offices and an operations center for software development projects, hosting Web3 workshops, and events both in-person and online. I host 2 X Spaces per week where I talk to interesting persons in the Web3 space, you can visit our online and IRL event schedule.

I am a core contributor in Ethereum Mexico, a community of Web3 and blockchain enthusiasts in Mexico, dedicated to education, innovation, and the growth of the Ethereum ecosystem. The core team recently organized a 650+ person event in September 2024 in Merida, Yucatan where I was half of the 2 person team leading sponsors relations.

I am the founder of mxweb3 - crypto hub, a NGO in Monterrey, Mexico that empowers Monterrey’s and LATAM’s Web3 community through education and innovation since 2022. We organize weekly meetups and larger events for Web3 enthusiasts. You can find mxweb3, on X and Instagram. Donate to mxweb3 in Giveth.

I used to co-host Proof of Value, a Web3 podcast in Spanish where we talked to people developing projects in Web3. You can find it on YouTube and Spotify. As a part of mxweb3, Ethereum Mexico and BandaWeb3 I’ve organized and attended numerous events, meetups, and hackathons to drive Web3 adoption in Latin America.

Message to the Scroll Community and Ecosystem:

I believe Scroll’s mission aligns perfectly with my vision of creating inclusive, decentralized ecosystems. As a delegate, I’m eager to contribute by engaging the community, supporting education, and helping guide governance decisions that ensure Scroll’s long-term success. Let’s work together to empower users and build a robust, sustainable ecosystem.

Top Issues

  • Builders: Empower developers with secure, low-cost platforms to innovate freely, fostering a decentralized, inclusive future.
  • Community: Build an inclusive community where diverse contributions drive innovation and reflect our values of decentralization.
    Experimentation: Champion bold, cross-chain experimentation to unlock the full potential of blockchain innovation.
  • Security: Prioritize robust security to uphold trust and enable safe, decentralized innovation in blockchain ecosystems.
  • Privacy: Advocate for enhanced privacy features to protect user data while ensuring system scalability and accessibility.

Conflict of interest

I work with many different systems, DAOs and communities globally. Should any conflict of interest arise, I will inform everyone in this thread.

I plan to use this thread to share my thoughts behind my votes and to get feedback from everyone here. Thanks for delegating to me, and feel free to ask questions.

Thoughts on Voting for @danielo’s Proposal:

I’ve been considering Daniel’s proposal for “Research to inform a builder support strategy” deeply, and I’m leaning towards voting in favor. Here’s why:

  • Comprehensive Approach: The proposal not only aims to understand why builders choose certain ecosystems but also identifies current support gaps, which is crucial for Scroll to attract and retain talent.

  • Ecosystem Learning: It opens the door for us to learn from other ecosystems’ successes and failures, allowing Scroll to craft a more effective strategy.

  • Community Engagement: The inclusion of workshops and community input in the process ensures that the strategy will reflect our collective vision. This co-creation aspect is vital for Scroll’s decentralized ethos.

  • Future-Oriented: This initiative sets a precedent for ongoing research, which is essential for Scroll’s long-term growth and adaptation in the fast-evolving Web3 space.

Ecosystems to Explore:

For this research, I recommend focusing on:

  • Solana: I’ve been part of the Solana community since before the NFT boom, and their approach to low-cost, high-speed transactions is something Scroll could learn from. Their community culture and developer support are also noteworthy.

  • Base: Their success in attracting developers and DAOs to migrate is impressive. Understanding their strategies could provide us with insights into how to make Scroll an attractive home for builders.

  • Arbitrum: Their business model with Layer 3 and how they distribute grants could inform our support mechanisms. Their governance model is also something to consider for enhancing our own.

  • Starknet: Their focus on simplifying the user experience for new entrants into the blockchain space is a lesson in accessibility. We could benefit from making Scroll more user-friendly from the get-go.

While all these ecosystems have unique strengths, learning from them could sharpen Scroll’s competitive edge, especially in developer support, user onboarding, and ecosystem growth.

Conclusion:

I believe this proposal could significantly benefit Scroll by providing data-driven insights into how we can best support our builders. By understanding the dynamics of these ecosystems, we can tailor our strategies to not just compete but lead in the L2 space. I encourage everyone to review this proposal in detail and join the discussion. Let’s use this as a stepping stone to make Scroll the most builder-friendly and community-centric ecosystem.

Feel free to ask questions or share your thoughts on this matter. I’m eager to hear the community’s perspective!
