🗳️ I’m Running for President of Open Campus DAO. @opencampus_xyz was never just about tokens or governance. It was about giving power back to educators, learners, and builders. About creating an education system that isn't gate kept but co-owned by the people who teach, learn, and build. That story still matters. But it’s been lost in the noise. I’m running for President to bring that story back and make it real. 🎓 Why I’m Running Before Web3, I spent 10 years in classrooms as a high school mathematics teacher and Head of Department. I know the education system from the inside. I’ve seen how broken it is. I’ve lived the frustration of great teachers being held back by bad systems. I joined Open Campus because I believed in a better model. One where value is shared, ownership is earned, and education is finally open to all. And truthfully, I’ve been here from the beginning. I worked extensively on Open Campus before its launch, shaping its token model, structure, and early vision. You could call me a silent co-founder. But now it’s time to step out of the shadows and take a leading role in its future. One of the biggest opportunities ahead is student financing: a $3 trillion market that continues to grow year on year. I want to help bring this market on-chain, offering more equitable loans for students and better yields for investors. This isn’t just an innovation in RWA and DeFi. It’s a moral imperative. 💡 Why Me I’ve taught in schools, managed teams, and led departments. I speak the language of educators because I was one. I’ve built and advised on token economies for Mocaverse, ApeCoin, Pixels, EDU, and more. I’ve redesigned governance structures for DAOs managing hundreds of millions in treasury. I helped shape Open Campus before launch and understand its DNA better than anyone. As Head of Tokenomics at Animoca Brands, I bring together design, execution, and long-term thinking. And as a father of three, I care deeply about the systems we leave behind. 🧭 My Focus as President 1. Tell a Story That Resonates Reposition Open Campus in language educators, students, and institutions can understand. Show the world why this matters and why it’s different. 2. Upgrade the Token Economy Redesign how incentives flow across the ecosystem.This includes: - Elevating the Yuzu Points system as our core reputation and engagement layer - Activating new partnerships that strengthen the Open Campus ecosystem through my global network of builders, educators, and institutions - Implementing a clear strategy to increase the price of $EDU, aligning all incentives from contributors to token holders around long-term value creation 3. Turn EduChain into the Education OS Ensure developers, builders, and institutions can build and scale on EduChain. Make it useful, usable, and impossible to ignore. 4. Refocus OCX on Real Impact Direct capital toward projects that drive engagement, retention, and outcomes — not just narratives or noise. 5. Make DAO Participation Meaningful Build systems where governance is productive and aligned. Turn voting into contribution. Turn contributors into owners. 🙏 A Final Word This is not a vanity title or a campaign for status. This is about service. I’ve worked across classrooms, DAOs, and token ecosystems. I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. I’ve helped build systems that scale. Open Campus DAO has the opportunity to become one of the most important education movements of our time but only if we act now, with clarity and conviction. I’m ready to lead that next chapter.

Bildung ist nicht nur ein Sektor, sondern eine lebenslange Herausforderung, die es wert ist, gelöst zu werden. Ich habe mit beruflicher Weiterbildung begonnen, bin dann in die Hochschulbildung und B2B-Ausbildung gewechselt und habe dabei geholfen, eine der ehrgeizigsten Business Schools in Südostasien aufzubauen – mit Auswirkungen auf über 130.000 Lernende. Jetzt betreten wir die nächste Grenze: die direkte Finanzierung von Studierenden und Gründern. Denn echter Zugang geht nicht nur um Inhalte – es geht um Kapital. Ich freue mich, erneut für den Rat zu kandidieren, um über 150 Unternehmen und mehr als 28 Millionen Lernende in unserem Ökosystem zu unterstützen. Lass uns die Zukunft der Bildung on-chain aufbauen.

Education shaped my path, and it’s a privilege to pay it forward. Recently, I was nominated to join the EDU DAO Special Council as one of its Council Members. Here’s why I’m doing this 🧵 Over the past year, I’ve worked closely with @opencampus_xyz through @caladanxyz - Supporting DEX liquidity on EDU Chain - Facilitating access to lenders and users - Watching an idea become an ecosystem The mission to shift value toward educators and learners is personal. Now it’s time to help scale it. At @GoldmanSachs, I worked on student loan financing. I’ve seen the power and pitfalls of education financing up close. Capital must be responsibly structured to deliver real-world outcomes. At Caladan, we’re hands-on with DAOs and DeFi protocols. We help builders think like allocators. @educhain_xyz is one of the most mission-aligned ecosystems I’ve encountered. As a Council Member, I’ll focus on: - Attracting and deploying capital with transparency - Scaling sustainable student loan products - Aligning token holders, builders, and beneficiaries over the long term My goals: - Help bring in both DeFi-native and traditional capital - Evaluate proposals through a rigorous investment lens - Strengthen EDU token utility - Ensure clear reporting, impact tracking, and principled governance I care deeply about mission > hype. Integrity and transparency aren’t optional, they’re foundational. Let’s build a new financial backbone for education. Excited to contribute 🔥📚
