Welcome.
Shout out to the host himself.
Shout out to the coast, Barnabas.
Yeah.
Shout out to everyone on the speaker row.

With that being said, let us do well to.
Retweet this, please, and tag as much people as we can before we get started
properly, Emmys, you want to talk to us?
Let's hear you. Am I the one am I Roggen?
No, we cannot hear a miss.
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, I want to say something.
I know we had this case about it, about the last before.
After going deep and looking out at the blood,
it's really kind of good.
With what they are putting on ground,
it's going to be really, very, very, very, very easy.
And those of us that are able to do this project,
they're going to be the first sort of people to benefit from it.
Because I just feel like there are still a lot of people that are still planning on ground,
and they are still here to remove the cost.
But I feel it's those that are still there that are going to be able to put for this.
Because now they are actually recognizing, I saw the post in me,
I think it was two days ago about Africa and spreading and all of that in Africa.
So they are gradually recognizing us and you know, recognizing that we took,
like, the whole power when we come to this and what we speak.
So I believe that post I saw in the office
is really motivated because, you know,
I'm sure that they recognize now our work
and, you know, the effects of Africa in the work-based place.
Thank you for that, Emish. Thank you for that amish thank you for that um thank you for that so we'll still go into those
details properly but thank you for yeah thank you for that take um with that being said yeah
um with that being said let us do well like i said let us do our to come we why are we not targeting
people no one has tagged anyone to this piece what's happening let's start people let's get
people into this place let us let us talk positivity let us talk this is a this is a big thing
up into africa right now this is a big thing coming to africa and it it deserves the world deserve to be spread to everyone everyone deserves to hear about this so let us start at least three people
in your mutuals you have everyone here no one here has less than 10 followers which means you have
more than 10 people following you so go to the comment section tag three out of those people following you or more why is nobody
tagging don't let's just don't you guys you don't have me no don't turn yourself to airbenders let's
start people let's get number we are starting we're going into the topic properly in a minute's
time so then bannabas can take over and get us going. So let's do that.
But while we're doing that, Banabas, you can have the mic.
Let's get the ball rolling.
This is Godly, the voice of Word 3.
I'm still getting myself together.
And I can still hear me moving.
Yeah, thank you so much for establishing the ground for us
to build on.
And I'm so happy to see some familiar faces,
some new faces here.
And yeah, you guys are about to listen
to what Africa will achieve in the coming years,
coming, yeah, just coming years,
not, I don't want to say months, but coming years.
So, Amy said something.
I didn't really get his question, or was it a suggestion?
So, like, he was kind of lagging.
And can you please rephrase what you said so that I can address it?
So, I think some days ago, it's not a space before, so I saw when he made an article about
Africa and how they are spreading to Africa.
It shows more credibility because it shows that they are at least supporting Africa and recognizing the power of Africa holding
the Muslim world escape.
So that's what I was emphasizing because as far as they made up, they recognize what
you are capable of and I think they are support for Africa. I would say you know pushing the ball game for the ontology, but the more they start pushing
you know um um Africa, you know on the Africa, they want to start pushing us pushing Nigeria
to the society and you know the rest of the African countries. So really really
to help the ontology. Because perhaps is that yeah they have followed their absence of other ontologies um
accounts from different countries but now if africa is not just one is the nation of africa
so we are much more solidified in other anthologies you know they don't want to But when it comes to Africa, it's a continent.
And they're from the powerhouse of Africa, which is Nigeria.
So they actually have their dream.
So I would like to emphasize on the fact that
they are now with the nine million
Africa and Nigeria as a powerhouse.
Yeah, yeah.
Thank you so much for emphasizing on that. And you are right, because there
are some haventgers here, like Dillon and Sassin. And this is like the first initiative
that Ontology have taken to build like a community-led kind of thing. So it's really an opportunity for us to showcase that.
And once this is successful, we can move to other continent.
But this is the first time.
And I would say that this is an opportunity for us to make good use of it
because the support is there. official announcement has has been made
yesterday so you guys will know that it is legit it's just it is real it is something that we need
to get on board with and the only thing I would say is we should come together build a solid
foundation so that in the near future others will come and build upon what we
are doing right now. And it's a good thing because for us Africans, we have like a lot of bright
minds, people that want to change. It's not only the continent, but the world, but you know, in
African saying, we say by Africans for for Africans but we really build things
that even the world would get to we get to use so my advice or let's say my
two cents is that we should make best use of the opportunity that has been
given to us we should really be committed to to the project and and yeah let's see what we can
achieve together because the community is there to to support to help in any way they can be it
you're a community manager you're a community builder content creator a developer, or any kind of skill that you possess is needed.
We need you.
Just come and show us what you can do, and we are here to support.
And we have a few people from other African countries, like Rodas.
She's from Ethiopia.
We've been talking on how to build a community there,
so I think it's right for me to give a shout out.
And Takutua, he's from Zimbabwe.
His name is kind of like unfamiliar.
Like I'm having difficulty in pronouncing it right.
But don't worry, bro.
One day I'm going to get it right.
And yeah, so I think I'm going to,
DeLon is a harbinger from, if I'm not mistaken,
is it Bangladesh?
I'm not sure, but yeah, bro, you can correct me.
So maybe you would like to say something
before we move on.
Yeah, thank you.
I'm not sure he wants to talk.
I'm not sure Dylan wants to talk at the moment.
He's probably not beside his mic.
So, yeah, just like the host said, we... Does anyone want to talk?
GM, GM, sorry.
Sorry.
Sorry for interrupting. Am I audible am i audible please yeah you're doing
yeah sorry i think the comment section for the um for the space is now open yeah i'm trying to tag
someone tag more people but i think the comment section is not open
i can't access this from here maybe i don't know if I am the only one here.
Comment session.
It's open.
Hold on.
Yeah, hi.
Hello.
You said the comment session is now open, right?
Can you guys hear me?
Yeah, we can hear you.
Go on, Rodas.
Can you hear me?
Okay.
Hello, everyone.
This is Rodas, a community builder based in Ethiopia.
Nice to have you guys here.
So I have come across Ontology sooner, like a little bit soon.
And we are also speaking on creating a community of Ontology based in Ethiopia.
So for those of you who don't know about the ecosystem of Web3 in Ethiopia,
it's an ecosystem where there are youngsters and a lot of users that are talented and that
seek opportunity to give what they have and provide value to the world. And this is just
the beginning. We are coming across platforms to connect developers, creators, builders with a secure identity on ontology to the world.
And thank you for choosing Ethiopia.
Thank you for making us part of your big journey.
We can't wait to see what you guys and us are going to work with.
Yeah, Roda.
Roda, thank you. And Goldie, you're an amazing host by the way forgot to say that thank you i appreciate that so um thank you rodas and yeah we all appreciate ontology network for
picking africa as one of as a as a suitable place to expand into and yeah we we as Africans will be
working side by side and since I am new to this community if anybody want to give like highlights
talk about how ontology goes in your country I know Bernabas has been giving me a little bit
description about ontology Nigeria.
I can also see that we have Ontology Notes in Australia here.
So I would really be glad to hear from you guys and see how to make the community as effective, engaged, and inclusive as it is in Ethiopia.
As it is in other countries in Ethiopia. So, yes, you can follow me and I'll follow you back and we can discuss ongoing partnerships,
how to make Ontology big in Africa and secure our identities
while we are operating on on-chain.
Sure, sure, sure, sure.
So Ontology Australia will be talking shortly. australia will be talking shortly yeah talking shortly so um for
the person that um complained about not accessing the comment session i just created a post about
the space so just go to my profile you will see my last my most recent post you can comment there
so the person can see the space automatically so
in case anyone is also experiencing such just go there because i think over year two when i click
on the comment section i can't access it so just go to my profile the the recent post i just made
now it's about this place so anyone you if you comment and tag anyone there they can see the
space directly so host you can also do well to just retweet that particular post so others can see it and comment, tag anyone they want to see on the space there.
So with that being said, are we going straight into the topic for the day?
Can somebody let Serena know that we cannot hear him or is it only
me yeah am i audible yeah it's audible yeah audible okay okay so um are we going straight
into the topic for today or ontology australia should just give like a little brief, a little introduction of what ontology is over there.
And so others can also get familiar with ontology in outside Africa,
in the other continent entirely.
So which do we do first?
Should we go into the topic for today?
Or we let ontology of Phila do a brief introduction just for five minutes
and we go into the topic for today.
Which is it, Banab which is it yeah i think we
are going to um maybe dylan dylan have has to has to speak because he hosted an event um i'm not
sure about the country bangladesh i think so so please you should come up or mute your mic, talk to us, tell us about your experience because
Nigeria, we haven't hosted an offline meeting, in person meeting, if I would say. So please
tell us your experience. Like Rhoda said, she wants us to know, okay, this is your experience,
right? We want to know your experience.
And it's something that we want to tap in and then learn from you.
So I want Dillon to speak and then not Australia.
Dillon, are you there?
I want to hear you speak.
I think Dillon doesn't want to speak to us. Not Australia. You can go ahead.
Hey guys, can you hear me?
Yeah, we can hear you, man. Go on. Welcome.
Oh, great. Hey, yeah, thank you. Thanks. I just, actually, I didn't want to go on to up to the stage.
I thought I listened in. I just want to give a big shout out and thank you to Barnabas.
We normally both hang out in Discord as well as moderators.
So I hope most of you guys are already there to follow for updates.
Yeah, at the moment, pretty much what we do, we do provide a staking service.
I think most of you guys might run a candidate note already.
That's pretty much how I came to Ontology probably three years ago,
to Ontology Discord, and got taken in by another Harbinger, by Donny.
He left.
Unfortunately, he made another journey into the Web3 space,
and I got drawn pretty much to Ontology because of the privacy, you know, privacy part,
like most of you guys.
As I said, yeah, I just want to support, actually,
Bonabasio.
As I said, he's become a pretty important member
of the Ontology community for us.
Yeah, I don't have much more to say.
So if you have any questions, I'm more than happy to answer.
But I'm glad and Thanks for that you guys
Doing what you're doing and try to support and build on ontology and study products
ontology got
They're pretty amazing probably I think you both or both mean you all have seen it
Orange protocol the ont ID onto wallet
So it's pretty much you got everything you need in the web
three space you know if people might wonder because my accent might not sound Australian
I migrated to Australia 14 15 years ago I'm actually from Germany so just just people often
say hey this guy doesn't sound like an Australian guy yeah so as I said I just want to join the
space and see what's going on here because I see the community,
the African community is growing rapidly,
which is nice to see.
I just want to be part of it and see what's
going on also in other countries because
I'm usually 14,000, 15,000 Ks far
away from the rest of you guys.
Glad to be here and
can't wait to see where this is going to lead.
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you so much for what you said.
And yeah, if you guys are interested in staking,
North Australia is running, like has a note that he has been running for years.
And the APR, the percentage is pretty high.
You can make a passive income out of staking your
ONT and then any ONG. So he's been trusted and reliable and his share ratio doesn't change.
So it's something that if you guys are interested you can go to any centralized exchange,
You can go to any centralized exchange, buy UNT, go to UNTWALID, search for North Australia, and then stake your coins.
Thank you so much for that.
And yeah, I think Dylan doesn't want to say.
Dylan, do you want to say anything before we move on?
Yeah.
Bonapos. Okay okay go ahead just just um just want to say one thing as i said um it's not just about you know the staking rewards and stuff so just for everyone to know we will do like the
harbinger uh does in the philippines well. We will run this year just before Christmas.
We start running a new note with staking services.
I'm not sure if this is something you guys might be interested.
All those staking rewards, 100% with staking rewards,
they will go to a good course like for schools or whatever,
for kids to provide books and other stuff, Christmas gifts,
or even some health or medical care.
So I'm not sure, as I said, this is something that has been done successfully in other countries.
If this is something you might be interested in, I think Barnabas can give the African community
some updates. I'm not sure if you guys have discussed something like this, but
we would like to do something good for the community. And as I said, we would donate 100%
of the note rewards for a good cause so just as an
FYI there's something coming up I will post this on our twitter space or twitter page but I thought
we should give back to the community as well particularly when kids and other people are in
need so I just want to bring this up quickly would be nice and appreciated if you guys would support
that more or less you don't have to but
as I said everything gonna go for a good course might be kids might be hospital education I'm not
sure what we're gonna do but we're gonna work something out for the community yeah thank you
so much uh till down thank you so much uh by the way you know you missed Daniel right so thank you
so much for for everything you said and yeah I I believe that we want to support the community in any way we can.
And this is something that I've been speaking with one of our harbingers in Turkey.
He said the Turkey community wants to support in drilling a bohole here in Nigeria. So we get to choose any city or any village
that needs clean water, then we support them in any way.
So actually running the North, getting that reward
and putting it into good use is something commendable.
And yeah, it's very good to see.
And really it's hard touching. And thank you so much for emphasizing on on that
yeah so i think we we are going to move forward um which we we just get started
um so godly do you have anything to to say before we we move on
before we move on.
Well, let's go on, brother.
Bo, I just wanna give a quick shout out
to you guys over there.
I wanna give a quick shout out to Ontology Australia,
I'm sure I didn't know it, Australia.
I'll give a shout out to everyone, looking out for everyone.
It's a nice gesture and really appreciate what you're
doing over there and
we appreciate ontology generally for
thinking of Africa and
thinking of Africa as
an approachable
continent where
new things can be
tried and yeah, we're here to make
it up.
That's, of course, is what we can do yes let's get into
business of the day proper over to you bernard
okay thank you so much godly um so back to the main thing that brought us here. You've all seen the post that just went out yesterday and it's something that we've been
talking, we've been having discussion over it and I'm happy and I'm proud to see it come to life
and see it out there and everyone will benefit from it. So what we're about to achieve, right,
what we're about to achieve is trying to create a community-led community.
Yeah, so that it's going to run by the community.
So they come together, just like what Governor is all about, right?
Come together, decide what you guys want to do.
And it's something that Joff told me,
we want to give the community as much control
over what's going on within the community, right?
So you will just come in, pitch in your idea,
support in any way you can,
and just build the community in something
that at the end of the day,
you'll be proud of your work, your effort and everything.
And we focus on three things.
I keep on saying, I keep on reiterating that we focus on three things. Even in our last
piece, something that I point out, one is brand awareness and education. So sharing practical
web training knowledge through meetups, workshop, and university clubs.
We want people that are in universities to set up a campus hub,
teach students about blockchain, teach them about ontology,
bring them in, onboard them into the community.
And from there, they will get to make best use of that opportunity given to them. And we also want people that want to translate our docs,
what we are doing, what we are going,
and just our vision, right?
Translate it into a local language
so that others will get to understand.
Because not everyone understands English,
not everyone speaks English.
But if you are willing or if you are open to come in and say,
okay, I want to translate this document to my local dialect,
we support you.
We provide any materials that we have.
And yeah, we will do that.
The second one is taking on validator notes,
supporting new validators and broader participation.
So communities help secure the network.
And this is something that I'm planning to do.
I'm not going to say the Nigerian community, no.
The African community, we are going to start running our own node.
But I need volunteers, people that want to stake their coin.
But I need volunteers, people that want to stake their coin.
But we also have a lot of not runners within the ontology ecosystem.
But it's good to have our own node to give us like this kind of genuity.
So we need, if you want to run your own node too, we are open for that.
We support.
If you want to stake your own node too, we are open for that, we support. If you want to stake your coin,
we also support that.
The third one is developer onboarding,
but the developer onboarding,
I think is too,
which one,
it's only developer focus.
So I think what we want to say there
is builders,
content creators,
developers that, people that want to come in and build with us.
But for the backbone of the whole building thing, bringing more adoption is the developer.
So we want developers to come in, build, and then we help financially and then we provide mentorship too.
financially and then we provide mentorship too. So if you have an idea, just like an idea that you
think you need privacy, decentralized identity, you need reputation, you need security,
you can come to us and then we help in any way we can. And for the starting position, right, we have
like several levels that you can attain. So we have the volunteer role where you come,
you volunteer, you give us your commitment, your time and show us what you can do. After that,
when we see the impacts, right, you definitely put out content or maybe as a developer,
you build stuff or as a builder, you start a community, right?
You can move on to the city lead, city captain, yeah, city captain, and then you start getting
paid, real paid, you know, and from there, you'll be a regional lead, from there, you'll
be a country lead.
So those are the opportunities we have, But we don't want to focus on the
money aspect, right? We want to focus on the opportunity we can provide people. Because
so many people in Nigeria, I don't want to go to like outside Nigeria, in Nigeria, they
don't have identity. At some point they have issues maybe with their national identity registration or they are not
familiar with all this identity kind of thing. So a lot of people, millions, it's not hundreds,
millions of people don't have identity. And this is something that ontology took it upon itself,
that we want to give people identity, right? And we want them to control that identity.
Self-sovereignty.
You have control of your identity.
You get to share what you want people to see.
And then no one can use that against you.
Because so many times, just of recent,
it happened in Nigeria where they scam people a lot of money.
I forgot the, is it Sebex?
I forgot the name of the platform, but millions, like millions of dollars
was taken away from people, their hard-earned money,
just because they cannot identify that company.
The company kind of like disguised as a genuine company that they are from, was it USA?
So they came in, opened their platform, and then people started investing.
People started putting their money.
At the end of the day, they scammed them.
So these are the things that when we use ontology, right, when we use ontology technology, we are going to prevent that from happening.
And you get to have like that sense of ownership over your information just like um what is going on on
on facebook on other platform that you get to share your email and out of nowhere you start
receiving spam emails like on on marketing let's's say you went on the internet and searched for shoes.
Maybe you just want to see the picture or how it looks like.
And at the end of the day, you start getting ads based on what you've searched on Google.
So the ad is targeted based on the information you share, your email, your phone number, and so on and so forth.
So Ontology has a lot to offer.
We just have to make best use of the opportunity given to us.
This is once in a lifetime opportunity.
And I would say we should make best use of it,
come together.
We know we have so many Africans here
from different African countries,
come together, build something meaningful so that others will join us later. we know we have so many Africans here from different African countries come
together build something meaningful so that others would join us later so I
think this is what I have to say for now and yeah more is coming Ontology not
Australia you can go on thank you yeah I just want to add on the
privacy part as well as I said there's one thing which
has drawn me to ontology orange protocol and ont id you know you talk about obviously you
make all your private data available for everyone and these days with the internet and web3 it's
like you know you give all this data to someone to a big corporation whatever it might be where
you have to register yourself if your name, your number,
your date of birth, your address, whatever it might be,
your phone number.
And these companies didn't take, because you have to provide all these data, because otherwise you can't proceed.
They use and sell your private data.
They use and sell your private data.
And this is how they make millions and millions of dollars.
A company doesn't need to know where you live,
how old you are, and so on.
If you have your zero knowledge, KYC,
it's on-chain, it's all proven,
but they don't need to see all this data.
So therefore, they can't sell this on to someone else
to make money from it.
And also, obviously, this data can't go to anyone
who might have done or does some mischief with it.
So that's important to add.
I mean, as I said, we've seen it as well.
You guys might see it as well.
You get scam calls, you get scam emails, you get text messages.
Someone has provided or has given your data to someone else,
and most likely they have sold it.
So this is why it's so important
to have that zero-knowledge KYC as well,
which is now provided through Orange Protocol.
So you don't have to provide all those details,
but you still can prove on-chain,
you are you, and what you're saying is the truth.
That is personally for me very important,
and this is what brought me to ontology as well.
Yeah, thank you so much.
You know, this whole data stuff, because people can't do without data.
And those big corporations, like you said, they sell data to those marketers and they make money out of it and leaving you with nothing.
So Ontology came in and said, okay, we need to change our narrative.
We need to give people control over what they share.
So you don't have to give us your information.
You don't have to give us your email and everything.
Yeah, you have to put it there, but it's secured.
You are going to have, okay, I want to share my email on this platform
or I don't want to share my email you have like the ID once you go to on
toilet if you don't have on toilet so you need to go to play store or Google
Play Store app store Google Play Store download on toilet and register your
D ID and that's the first step and please if you are not following this
account the ontology network Africa and the ontology network our main accounts your DID. That's the first step. And please, if you are not following this account, the
Ontology Network, Africa and the Ontology Network are main accounts. Please do that.
Follow us and retweet this space. And also, if you are not on Telegram, for now, we are
still trying to have a Telegram account for different African countries.
For Zimbabwe, they have their own Telegram group right now.
Benin, they have.
For Utopia, I did create one,
but this is something that me and Roda have to talk about later.
But yeah, you can join the Nigerian group.
You can just go through the Ontology Network Africa account,
join the Nigerian group. And once we establish a community in your country um you can drum on uh jump up in the in
the group that we we created yeah so thank you guys and yeah let's let's build something
yeah let's build something guys let's do something guys sorry i'm chewing something
at least we are building something i can also choose something so with that being said um
i just feel it is it is paramount for me to chip this in i'm sorry so one thing um one of the things ontology is trying to solve i hope i'm audible guys
yeah you are okay good so one of the things um ontology is trying to solve in africa
from my understanding from my reading and from my conversation with the MoTrots.
We are growing very fast when it comes to crypto in Africa.
We are growing very fast. We are growing very fast.
And a lot of us, a lot of on the front on the forefront leading that charge
well we face some kind of problems especially like let me talk about nigeria specifically
we face some kind of problem number one lack of trust you know i made it i made a tweet about this
so for those that want to read properly they, they can go there to read about it.
So the first one is lack of trust.
Lack of trust between users and platforms.
For example, the crypto space is wide.
At the same time, it's wild.
Someone can just disguise as someone else and scam you again
i'm trying to say i can um someone can just wake up tomorrow disguised as someone else
claim is that particular account but because the person is not doxxed the person has a PFP, but the face is not doxxed.
So it is easy to just claim to be that person.
Yeah.
So this is one of, and you can use that person's identity to scam a project.
It happens very well in the crypto space, everywhere, worldwide.
So these are one of the issues ontology is trying to solve.
Identity issue.
Creating trust. So, yeah, especially here in Nigeria and some other African countries, I'm sure we have a lot of identity problem.
Lack of trust between users and platforms.
and platforms you know you might want to work with um across across across um border um project
or because but our product or so to say and they want to work with you and um they need to they need
to be sure of your identity they need to be sure of who you are they need to be sure you are who
you claim you are so picture a world whereby you have an identity secured with ontology then you
can just direct
them there you know what you want to confirm if this is me go here go to this particular place
and confirm and you go and they they approach ontology not as a person of course like they are
they are access the the provided information they confirm your identity and boom your identity trust
has been secured you get what I'm trying to say?
So these are part of the things ontology is trying to solve for us here in Africa.
It's trying to solve the lack of trust between users and platforms,
trying to solve poor identity verification, just like I said just now.
You can just go there, verify identity, and yeah,
they are sure they are onto the right person.
You get it?
So, and at the same time, they are also thinking not just about users they are also thinking about builders thinking
about builders in the sense that they are providing user-friendly web 32s for builders
so think about it as a as a as a good platinum or a good a good platform for us in Africa to to flex our
muscles they're basically giving us a platform to flex our muscles I'm a
builder yes I'm a builder let me come on the ontology and flex my muscle let them
know I am being backed by a sustainable sustainable engine which is the
ontology network Africa again I'm trying to say, so they are combining decentralized identity.
They're combining with data privacy, you know, combining with web3 infrastructure.
So apparently, they are a ball of opportunities, and that's what they're offering us in Africa.
And I don't think we should be fading that.
Why should we fade that?
So tell a friend to tell a friend to
tell an enemy to tell another friend down to the network africa is here to stay and they are here
to make our lives better i'm speaking like i'm speaking of the british right now they're like
they're here to make our life better so let us let us tell a friend to tell a friend you know
and the fact that uh a community is being created,
a city captain is being appointed, a country lead is being appointed.
That is to tell you they are here to stay and they are here to hear from us directly.
They're not just here to make us users.
You understand?
So apparently they're here for the users, they're here for the builders.
In fact, they're here for dig users, they're here for the builders. In fact, they're here for DGNs, for people that stake.
You stake your token and you get rewards for it.
So I'm still going to come on the mic one more time to give you guys what I think again
and what I have discovered from ontology network, generally an ontology network, Africa.
Once again, this is Godly, the voice
of Web3.
Let's hear from you guys.
Yeah, thank you so much, Godly.
And I think, Emis,
you've raised up your hand.
You want to go?
Yeah.
I want to say that
we talked about and community and personally to me any kind of particular project to work.
It's not on our project having so much control over the project.
So that lifts my attention because now it's not left in the hands of people to actually notice myself there.
And it's about working together, both builders, both you
know people that ask, everyone in the public area to take their digital go far. It will actually
go far, because our hands need to go far. And I'm not going to take my experience to,
I'm telling you, I'm telling you, I think like two weeks now, three weeks, but that's about um the ideas of the idea because a lot of people don't know like i think
about a lot of people don't even know who won't have an identity they are just because they are back to their numbers but no identity. If it represents people and people
are talking about the people who are identity,
you realize that we are
less, you know,
compared to the population who actually have
over 200,
about two,
almost one attack to one
of them.
So, if you put it, I actually have
identity that we can show you. If you are looking at identity, I might not have to be less compared to the population
you actually have.
So if I were to onboard people, explain to them that this is the community that doesn't
present, which means that your interests matter, the input of your next person, your friend,
everybody's interests matters. the input of your next person, your friend. Everybody's input is smart. And to give them a sense of belonging,
and a sense of, okay, I'm part of something new,
and my input is smart.
No matter how small it is,
and my input is smart.
So those two things,
that's my interest.
Yeah, thank you so much, Amis.
Ontology, not Australia.
You can go on.
Yeah, I just want to touch base on two things.
One was when it was talked about by Godly
about being Ontology's here to stay.
I don't know.
I believe many of you,
most of you have been in the Web3 space
and crypto probably for a little while.
And Ontology just had a seven-year mainnet.
I mean, I've been in crypto for a little while myself.
As I said, we provide staking service for Ontology.
We do have staking services for other chains as well.
But one thing is remarkable is Ontology is still here after seven or eight years.
I've seen a lot of other projects.
They promised the world.
And once you're invested in a project, all of a sudden those people are gone.
So Ontology is here to stay.
And the idea is becoming more and more important, in my opinion.
So I just want to highlight, as I said, we can talk about reputation and trust in Web3.
That's some big words, but Ontology has proven over the years Ontology is here to stay.
And if you follow the founder's Twitter account, you will see he's also active.
Sometimes people bring up in Discord, we haven't heard or seen anything from the founder for a
while so he just recently posted as well uh generally still building in the background
he's still there the team is still there so there's no one no one will leave no one will
go anywhere that's the first thing i want to say um as i said because most of the time people don't
see actually or don't know how long until he's actually already the mainnet is actually running the second one was i hear a lot of obviously staking and staking rewards and as
i just mentioned and bonobas mentioned it before as well you know with the um rewards you can earn
i've seen a lot of chains and the model ontology guard is not like for example like cosmos based
where three or four top tier validators can all of a sudden decide
to drop the reward rate from 20% or 25% down to 3% or 4%.
The voting process is a little bit different by ontology.
And over the years, it has proven it has one of the highest rewards.
So, I mean, as I said, there's a lot of documentation you guys can read,
and most of you probably have seen and probably checking out other staking options as well.
But Ontology is by far one of the chains with the highest returns.
And as I said, it's not just in four or five validator hands.
It depends on different variables.
But as I said, you will not have that you invest and believe you get a 20% return on your ONT tokens or paid in ONG and gas.
And then all of a sudden, there is a vote coming out, a proposal to drop it down to 5% or 3%.
And all of a sudden, everyone is trying to sell off.
So this doesn't happen.
It hasn't happened and I haven't seen it.
And as I said, we monitor a lot of chains for staking.
But as I said, Ontology is by far one of the most profitable chains I've ever seen.
We had recently a price drop.
Obviously, people do stake, sell and trade.
We had also the trading competition as well.
But not unless we're still sitting at 21
22 percent at the moment and i think it's pretty good you know it's just my opinion but um i just
want to point that out because people can brush over this sometimes quickly and briefly but if
you have a closer look and you look into the details um then you will see it's a nice product, Ontology is offering data community.
Yeah, thank you. Thank you so much for that.
And I think so many people don't have an idea on what staking is.
So I think we need to educate more people on staking and how they can end reward.
So Ontology is two token
dual system we have ont for governance and then ong utility token so you guys should check it out
if you you don't have any idea on staking running a node you can give ontology not australia a follow
he puts content on what staking is and why you should stick so you should probably follow him
if you're interested in in that area and i'm coming back to what emmy said you know and in
in blockchain blockchain it seems like something
that is complex something that is difficult and people that you know people are now in
web are thinking why should i come something that would make me confused or something that
is difficult for me to understand no um i think the the educational aspects should come first and we need to
educate people that blockchain is not that difficult which that's why I'm
more on on the educational parts if we can translate those big big words into
smaller what that people understand I think that will bring more that it will
bring more adoption into into blockchain in general so
We should focus on that and what ontology is offering is you don't need to know the tech right?
You don't need to know the tech is just okay. This is what it can do. Just have your DID
Have power by your data as well. You don't need to start knowing what smart contract
How can I program this? how can I program that.
You just need to understand the basis of what the idea is, what it can offer you, and the importance of having an identity.
Because so many people don't have identity.
So Anthology Not Australia, go on.
Yeah, sorry, I just want, I forgot, I sort of said it earlier.
Just if any one of the listeners could give this space a like or retweet
and also interact during the space, that would be much appreciated.
This one's going to get picked up by the algorithm from Twitter
and also will help to spread and share all the information given you. So it's not much,
as I said, just give it a thumbs up or give it a like, but it really, really helps the algorithm
and also helps Ontology Africa. So just want to say that quickly. Sorry for interrupting.
No worries at all. And I just want to give the other speakers opportunity to ask or give us their own opinion or feedback on their
journey so far or please if you are in the listener space and you want to come up and speak
please request for the just request for that we are going to approve you please come up and
I'm going to give opportunity to other speakers so if you have anything to say
um you can unmute your mic and do that thank you
so is it more see um yeah yeah chen chen chen chenik yeah i think your your your isan is giving me hard time
but yeah go on okay thank you very much um one of us gm everybody gem to our host ontology network
africa thank you good um gem to our co-host godly and GM to everybody on this piece.
So I want to chip in a bit of my contribution before we progress.
And as time goes on, I might still say more.
But at the moment, I want to speak to those who have had difficulties understanding ontology network and the goal and the expansion into Africa, how the roadmap
looks like. I'll do this with my, I use my story for instance as an illustration to drive home my
points. Maybe as a writer, I love telling stories. So I cannot compare my understanding of Ontology Network from the first day I started engaging with this platform and today.
I'm in a better position from the first day. simply because every day I have made genuine efforts to not just understand
Ontology Network but also explain to those who do not understand.
I have invited a couple of persons to this space and the question I get from everybody
are, please tell me what Ontology is all about, how can I contribute or how does it impact me and so on and so forth.
So if those of us who are present on this space,
those of us who have taken it upon ourselves to drive home
or to spread the gospel of Ontology Network,
start putting our content or start reading and engaging
in everything about the network protocol,
then it will give us a better understanding.
And it is only when we understand that we will be able to explain
to the rest of the world or people who we are inviting to join us on this space.
I remember waking up yesterday and the first question
that pricked my interest about ontology yesterday randomly was,
what is the cost of one ounce coin?
And I decided to check it up and I converted it into Naira.
And fast forward to today, I'm already making arrangements to buy a couple of ounce coins
and hold in my name.
And I have been gracious enough to listen to the
ontology in North Australia speak about trading yeah it's one area I'm just diving into I'm just
still learning the the ropes I know but I have found it more I have given gotten more reasons
why I should buy the coin and then learn how to trade maybe with on coin before I come back to the wider forex market and so on and so forth.
These are just little ways and directions that we could go about understanding more about the network and explaining to those we are trying to canvass and rule into this network.
and wool into this network.
So while the conversation was going on,
I felt I should just chip in this.
And like I said earlier, as we progress,
I would be contributing more
because I still have a lot to say.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much.
North Australia, you want to say something?
Yeah, go ahead.
Yeah, I just want to add to Chain Inc. AD
and to people who want to stake in general.
So I'm not sure if everyone is aware.
If you follow the main page and probably Ontology Africa as well and probably other Ontology pages as well from other countries.
Please don't forget if you stake 100 ONT tokens per consensus round, which is at a moment 16, 17 days.
That depends on the transactions on the chain that can speed up 60,000 blocks.
If you stake more than 100 ONT tokens, you are able and legible to claim one loyal NFT.
So what that actually gives you is if you have 10 NFTs, you get 50 i believe 50 ong bonobos you can correct me but i
think it's 50 ong um gas tokens and then you can swap this one within the onto wallet now this is
a new feature you can swap your ong or your own t into on t and then you can pretty much restake
that so you can start compounding this and you can make
actually some really good rewards, not just the staking rewards, but with that loyalty program,
you can actually make good rewards over the course of a year. So you can compound
and build actually your crypto wealth, you know, within the ontology ecosystem as well. So I just
want to bring that up because as I said, when you look at ontology, you look at media and all those pages,
all those documentations, it's so much information.
And sometimes it's hard when you start.
It's really hard to find what you're looking for.
So I know the team is working on to make things a little bit simpler,
give you a nice and easier overview because particularly when you start the New Web 3 journey, it's overwhelming.
You know, everyone has been there.
I've been there myself.
And it's always good if you have people you can talk to, like Barnabas and, you know,
your community in Africa, for example, or other Harbingers, or you come to Telegram or Discord.
We're more than happy to help and assist you.
Because we've all been there, we know how to list the start.
And sometimes it's hard to understand and see the value and things, you know.
So if you have ever any questions, don't hesitate to reach out.
More than happy to assist as well.
So even I'm not in Africa, but as I said, we all part, we all won.
And as I said, more than happy to assist.
So don't hesitate and just ask the question discord or you're on X what I would might be I'm
happy to assist in any way yeah thank you so much and yeah guys you know the
some of the documents yeah most especially our developer docs we're
really trying to simplify it now so I know there are some developers here within our midst.
If you're a developer, follow the OntologyMain account,
check out our developer doc website.
If there's any way you can contribute,
if there's any way you can simplify what was said there.
Just let me know. We can connect on Telegram and then we get to make it work for other developers to come and build.
And also there's some incentive that is going to be given to you. So it's an opportunity to come in and then help us in any way you can plus we if you
check the ontology african x account there's a bounty that is life the first
reward is $100 second 75 third position is 50 so everything is explained in the
document I attached in the post. So you just come in,
create a simple login feature with the ONS ID,
and that's it.
This is simple and straightforward.
So adding to what North Australia said,
it's all about making it simple,
like simplify the whole thing for others to understand.
And I really love to hear that our community members are making that extra push in order to buy our tokens and then try to have hunts in their name, like what Channing said.
So this is a good thing.
And it's good if you can stake it in order to
end some reward and yeah if you stake 100 or in ONT you get NFT and if you
accumulate 10 NFTs you get to convert it to 50 ONG and we made it the
team made it simple now that you can convert your ONG to ONT or ONG. Before there was
limits but now there's no limits you can convert any amounts that you want to
convert. So it's a good thing that we put all these things in place and like he
said we are here to help everyone. If think um you have like little knowledge on what ontology
netop is um you can come to discord um you can come to telegram ask any question you want to ask
and we are there to help you there are so many have been just here so we we just want um to to
move in in one direction right and we we have a starter pack. So you get to go to our Discord channel,
create a ticket,
and then a harbinger,
we respond to your ticket.
So ask any question you want to ask.
That's our first step
on onboarding you into the community, right?
So you get to ask
what the community is all about.
You get to ask any boiling questions you have.
So we are there to help you.
And at the end of the month, we often reward our new community members.
We call that a starter pack.
So if you are new to the ecosystem, you should definitely check out our Discord channel,
our Discord server, join our Discord server,
and get to interact with the Seth intro bot.
A ticket will be open, and then we get to respond
to your ticket and explain everything in a simplified way
for you to understand.
And yeah, so I think that's that's it for me and if 23
emics uh dylan if you have anything to say or anything to ask uh you can you can unmute your
mic and for the people that are in the listener room uh please if you want to speak um just request for the mic and then come up we really love to hear from you
and before we give the mic to other people please if you are not following the main ontology x
account please do that that's the only way that you can see the community update and get to
interact with our posts like ret, retweets, share.
Share it with as many people as you can.
Many people will love to hear what anthology is all about.
And yeah, so I'm going to give the mic to... If you have any questions, raise up your hand.
And if you want to speak, request for the mic.
If not, Godly, you can take it from here.
Thank you. the mic uh if not godly you can take it from here thank you yo i'm back in your ears once again
so guys um alphas have been shared information that have been flying
kudos to everyone shout out to, information has been flying. Good-dose to everyone.
Shout-out to everyone that has been speaking.
So just to avoid beating around the bush or repeating myself,
a lot has been said.
A lot has been said.
And I believe some of us have questions.
But the truth is some of us are mic shy.
Some people don't like getting on the mic which is totally understandable which is why we have a community.
So if Paraventure you are not from Nigeria but you are on this space right now and you would like to ask some questions or drop your two cents or you don't want to get on the mic that's not a problem just head on to the community created
for Nigeria if your if your country doesn't have a community yet just head on to ontology
network Nigeria telegram join the. Drop your questions there.
Drop your suggestions there.
We'll be there to answer.
Everyone will be...
Anybody can respond to you.
Anyone can reply you.
And yeah, I am seeing Aaron.
I'm seeing Aaron in the listener role.
Shout out to you, Aaron.
So Aaron is one of the few we've been seeing around.
So shout out to you.
She's going to speak RO today.
So Ontology, you want to say something?
Ontology, not Australia, you want to say something?
Yeah, just in the chat, I just posted the link for our Discord
and the main account for Telegram
and also the developer fund, the 10 million developer fund.
So if anyone is interested in,
I've got the links for you down in the underneath the chat.
Thank you, that's all.
Yeah, so there you have it.
We are, you have the, you have the link there,
or the links, so there you have it. You have the link there, or the links, so to say.
You have the links there to the Discord, to every other platform.
You have it there.
So if you need to understand ontology better, let's say you're here
and you're still finding it difficult to understand some part of what has been said
or what has not been said yet.
Just.
You can head on to the main page, the main ontology network,
Twitter page or ontology Africa page.
You will see some of the content that I've been written about ontology network
Africa, go through them, read through them.
And I believe by then you will understand better so you can also add to my profile you will see um just go to my highlights you will see where i wrote
specifically about what ontology network is bringing to africa i was just planning to serve us
and now we can also serve Ontology Africa, Ontology
Network as a whole.
Because I have this, I have a philosophy for those in my community, they know I have a
philosophy.
I do tell everyone around me that Web3 or crypto Twitter or crypto world generally doesn't
just pay you, it pays you to have value.
So your value is what we reciprocate.
It is a value that we turn into a monetary reward or whatever reward it is you're looking for in a Web3 world.
As a trader, you're trading, you're making money.
It is because you're offering the value of your trading analysis.
You understand? So whatever it is you're doing doing you have to provide value for ontology itself so
we are here to think about to to brainstorm on how we can be valuable for ontology and at the same time ontology is ready to be to be valuable to us also so let us think that is why um that was why ben about said that not just thinking about um
the monetary aspect of what we'll be getting from intelligent money monetarily but let us
think about the opportunities we can get from until it we from ontology i was on call with an Australian friend who in the midnight time here,
and he said he saw me post about ontology.
He said he has ontology talking, that it was done for some time,
but he's glad that it's coming up back.
So apparently that is what we are bringing into ontology.
We as Africans, we want to be like the breath of fresh air for ontology
network. And what better way to do it than doing it collectively? So if we do this collectively
and it is successful, other opportunities can look at Africa and be like, yo, these
guys did it for ontology. Let us approach Africa. They will do it for us too. So we
are more or less like shaping our future in the crypto world
while doing it alongside ontology network so if you have questions you can head on to the content
that i've written about ontology read about ontology get to understand what we stand for
and what we are all about and if you still have further questions which is totally fine head on
to the community ask ask a question.
I'll be there. Other committee members will be there.
Banner members will be there. Everyone will be there to answer your question.
Because the knowledge I have, if you ask a question and the knowledge I have can answer, I'll definitely answer you.
So, and I can learn also from the questions you are asking me.
Apparently, when I came to ontology, I didn't know anything about ontology.
But from asking questions, I got to understand to ontology, I didn't know anything about ontology, but from
asking questions, I got to understand what ontology stands
for and what they represent. So you can do the same thing.
You can feel the same shoes. We'll be waiting to hear from
you. And of course, you are welcome to the ontology
network. Africa. This is Godly, the voice of Web3. Someone
was raising his hands at the time i think that
was emmy's let us hear from you brother is that his gun is it gone is it gone is it gone is it
gone is it gone i thought that means ends was in the hair okay no problem no problem no problem
yeah before before we we give the mic to other person i think i need to emphasize more
on what not us not ontology not australia said uh regarding the uh 10 million dollars deed fund
so the deed fund is specifically for builders that want to come and build not only builders like
even if someone wants to come and host an event, I want to educate people, right?
We have like three categories, if I'm not mistaken, so you can check it out, come up with your idea. But yeah, you can just check it out, come up with your idea and see how best you can support ontology.
And for the joining of group, yeah, you can join the, please join the main telegram group. Yeah, that's where we often have our Tuesday, like it's a weekly community like meeting where we get to discuss about everything Web3 or ontology. topic and then talk about it at the end of the day uh you you win some nfts so i want you guys to
to join the main um telegram group the link has been dropped by ontology not australia and our
discord server the link is dropped below so if you're interested in the starter pack you can go ahead and open a ticket we get to to respond back and
yeah so ontology north australia go ahead yeah i think uh plantly was first plenty you go ahead
Hey, good morning. Good morning. Just a quick question. I'll try to piggyback off of what I heard.
hey good morning um
So in the OnTo app, we can now take our ONG and we don't have to move it anywhere.
We can just convert it straight to ONT now. Is that what I'm hearing? Oh, that's exciting. Super exciting.
Yeah, yeah, that's been exciting.
And that's correct.
It took a little while.
And as I said, as you guys are aware,
Ontology is about community, you know.
And we heard, Ontology team heard about, obviously,
that that was a big issue only to changing ONT into ONG,
but not ONG into ONT.
So we used third-party platforms like ChangeNow and things like that.
But I think two updates ago, the OnTour team has implemented it.
So you can swap now within the OnTour wallet, which is easy and it is fantastic
because you can pretty much convert your ONG rewards straight away to ONT
and then start compounding
without doing this and sending this in external providers so that that works now yeah that's
that's excellent and the next thing i was going to say um i think i said this maybe like last
time i was here um i don't know if you guys are familiar with the base the base network
base mainnet on um i think i use mine on MetaMask.
They have a function that's really fun,
really easy.
It's on Twitter.
And I'm sure you guys heard about the,
the agent bots,
the agents where you could just talk to it.
Pretty much like an AI,
not financial advisor,
but it's like an AI person that will do all the buying and selling for you,
the quickest stop loss, you know, verbally.
You can even do leveraging verbally.
If we could put ontology, if we could tie that into that somehow,
we could just like verbally say, hey, buy me $50 of ONT.
And then, you know, it's going to compute back.
It's going to give a lot of eyes and
opportunity to the network and i just think uh you guys should put some eyes on it so anyways
thank you for the time and i'll be sitting my butt back down yeah no worries bluntly thanks
man but i'm i'm happy i was excited to to get finally the swap in the onto wallet to compound. Just regarding those staking or AI staking,
obviously there's a lot of agents, AI agents out there at the moment,
and a lot of people try to utilize them,
to use them to get a trading strategy.
I mean, as I said, if you're not a day trader or whatever,
I think, what was it?
Chain Inc. AD was talking about trading as well.
I think one of the safest, again, not financial advice.
That's, you know, everyone has to make their own learnings and mistakes.
But I think grid bots and things like that are pretty solid.
You do trading.
If you're not a day trader, if you want to try that out with even a small amount,
depending on which platform, you've got third-party providers.
They provide you with different options if it's an option for the trading as i said a dollar cost
average but if it's a grid board things like that as i said if there's anyone interested in trading
or in trading strategies i said i'm not a day trader or whatever but i said before i'm more than
happy to share my experience over the years watch sort sort of what worked for myself, which I thought it would work and it didn't work.
But it's a topic for another time.
But we surely can bring this up.
And even Barnabas said before that I posted the link for Discord.
More than happy if you can also do a chat or whatever,
a voice chat or something in Discord,
and also do a screen share and might even go over a few different options,
you know, even show how easy it is to set up a candidate node
because, again, people who are on node,
when you set up a node for a network,
and they believe you have to run a server,
you have to run a machine,
and you need to know Linux or any OS
and have to run a machine 24-7.
You don't have to do this with ontology
when you have a candidate node.
You literally don't have to have any cost
apart from having your minimum delegation
and you have to pay your network fee in ONG
and then you're up and running.
But again, that's something I'm also happy to join.
If there's any questions, just hop over to Discord
and tag me.
My name is Tud then yeah we can chat so
that's just my five cents and thank you for having me as i said i wasn't uh anticipating to come up
on the speaker stage i pressed the wrong button here but i really enjoyed it so thank you everyone
yeah thank you so much
your insight has been beneficial yeah it's i don't know anything about trading
so maybe if if i'm leaning towards that space i would definitely uh let you know yeah so you guys
can definitely join our discord server uh where we we get to like answers answer some questions your inquiries and like uh not australia said
if you want to learn um he's willing to to to tell you about his experience not that he will
he will teach you how to be like him but you know experience matters if you are
new to a field um ask people that have been in that field for for so long so that they will tell you
okay this is what you should do and what you shouldn't do and for the expert uh for the
let's say learning and then losing path yeah definitely you will lose some um but you definitely
win some so um godly you can continue if there's anyone that have something to say
um you can raise up your hand
okay does anyone have anything to say so um ontology note australia so you that that hand
note that hand no that wasn't the wrong button brother it was the right button
that you didn't want to push but you had to push it wrongly to think you pushed the wrong button

the African space is expounding in terms of a theory.

trying to push us forward.
Yesterday, I saw the post on the main page,
you know, launching about launching the new,
the African community, and I was so proud of everyone on anthology
afghan i'm like yeah we did it yeah we we made this possible and this is an opportunity for us
not to just relax you know it's more opportunities to spread the word and you know the last time we
had our community called us on x and, Mr. Abadambas was telling
us, trying to keep rules, thinking about the state, the country, and just CT even said
we would have had a new moderator that was Mr mr godly finger stream on that well yeah this is this is a part where we put in more
words and if you and i i see people on the tl i see people i don't know but i mean the first thing

to say something but before i give you the mic brother um you know it's it pleases me to like talk about this when i say
uh the mission of ontology is very clear you know it's very clear i'm actually picking this from the
right top i made for ontology the mission is very clear you know educate and on board millions into
into a three which is what b Barnabas was talking about initially.
He said if you're in school, you can talk to your classmates, your schoolmates, onboard
them into the space, let them know about what we are doing, what is cooking in the kitchen.
The mission is very clear.
Educate and onboard millions into Web3. Give builders the tools to innovate, you know.
From the deployed smart contracts, you know,
from the smart XID, you know,
they have tools that they can resonate with
and do great things with, you know,
give builders the tools to innovate, you know.
Anthology Network is here to create a trust layer
that protects users and projects alike, you know. So network is here to create a trust layer that protects users and
projects alike you know so you have a you're building a project you know you need it you need
it protected you need a trust layer for it you know ontology is the is the is the go-to is the
go-to is a go-to ecosystem for it so um don't let us feed these guys don't let us feed these guys
tell a friend to tell a friend to tell another friend.
Yeah, Anzalajin, Nod, Australia, you can have the mic while we get ready to, you know, say our dots, our i's and cross our t's.
You can have the mic brother.
Yeah, I just actually wanted to raise my hand because I saw Aaron was trying to get into the chat.
That was all.
And I just want to give another shout out to one of the Harbinger legends just joined,
Cess and D.
He just came in.
So if you join our telegram, you will know him.
That's about it.
As I said, again, thank you for having me.
And I hope I can join more often.
It's really nice to be here meet new people and as I said share some expertise get some info get some I should
I say get a little bit information on how people feel about the network the
products and what people actually want or like that's very important for us
because as I said we do have current direct contact to the team as well.
The team is also in Telegram, so people from the core team are in Telegram as well.
Join Discord, but as I said, we're sort of the go-to people
to relay your needs, the information and things you want to see to the team
and try to make them happen for you.
There's not many projects out there.
Everyone is telling you they are community-focused, a lot community-focused.
But most of the time, things don't get relayed straight away.
But I can tell you from my experience and being a harbinger as well for some years now,
the team is working hard and they try to make things happen.
And they are concerned.
If there's a community concern, even if it's a concern from an individual community member,
then this gets taken on board.
Okay, so it's not brushed off and say, yeah, this is one person out of 250,000 or 400,000 people.
No, the people, the team is taking that on board and
they evaluate and re-evaluate what is actually a concern here and what can we do to rectify
this problem. And as I said, I've been in this space for a little while, but I've never
seen it so intimate in brackets that the team is concerned about things like that.
Okay. So as I said, it's my experience, but I just, I would like to share this because it's a
good community.
There are great hobbingers.
There's the European lead, everyone.
Okay.
Those people that are there, they're real people.
That's the main thing.
They're real people.
They listen to you.
And when you address an issue, they try to fix this issue.
And it is not everywhere like that in the Web3 space.
So as I said, reputation and trust,
this is what Ontology Network is standing for,
and Orange Protocol and ONT ID.
And yeah, as I said, this is what we try to do for you.
OK, so thank you very much, everyone, again.
And Emnis is next one up in line.
Yeah, thank you for that. Thank you for that. Em that image you have your hands up in there let's hear you brother yeah i just want to give a big shout out to aaron like she's really
doing a good job you know i went to our page and i saw the video she made really really really amazing video and
She's the one person that I know has been pushing the ontology network
you know pushing that large Africa and
Yeah, big shout out to you. I just give you a full low. We love a full of bad, you know
follow we love a follow back you know yeah big shout out to you
Yeah, big shout out to you

other thing we want to touch or we rock this pace
as soon as we can?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You want to talk to us about anything, Banabas?
Any other thing you're going to add to it?
Yeah, okay.
I have a few things to say.
The only thing is we are here, right?
And the mission has been made official. We might as well get started. So if you think we are just playing, no, we are not. So join the community. Ask how you can get involved. yeah let's just push the mission forward because uh if we keep on saying when when when um i don't
think we are going to start but we've already started as you can see and if you it's just how
you need to get involved right um i like i explained uh we we have like three levels um the
the volunteer role city city captain and then regional lead well we like four so the country
lead is there too but since we're just starting off uh we kind of like uh edited those that does
uh country lead um is out of reach for now but once we build our community across the country, we get to appoint a country lead. So those are
the ways for you to get involved. And like, yeah, you can make a living out of that. But also,
we want to give you a platform where you can come and showcase your skill. There are some people that doesn't want to be a city captain or regional
lead. They just want to be a part of the community, right? So you can come, be a writer, a content
creator, a researcher, a developer. You can come in and then build. There are so many ways you can earn. There are so many ways you can showcase your talent.
It's not a must that you must get that city lead or regional lead. No.
You can participate, support in any way you can, in any of the position you are in.
So this is what I'm telling you guys. I'm really bullish on ontology Africa,
and I'm really bullish on what we can achieve together. So let me come again. If you don't know how to get involved, join the community and ask questions. We are there to help you.
And I forgot to give a shout out to Erin.
She's been part of the community for so long,
and she's the only one for like till now.
And I'm hoping to see more people creating video content.
She's the only one that has been putting out video content.
When it comes to video content,
I don't have any experience in that area. So
she's been putting, she's really been doing well so far. And it's good if we encourage her,
follow her and engage on her post. So thank you for that. And I expect to see more from
our community members. And just make sure, yeah yeah just make sure that you follow the main
ontology x accounts our discord our telegram the nigerian group um if your your country like for
now we only have been in community on telegram been in zimbabwe and we are going to set up an etopian uh community uh in the coming weeks so you should um
