Pablo 🥷🏾 📍 devcon Mumbai

5+ years in blockchain space and this is my first time receiving a citation of honour. Grateful to Lancaster University Ghana and the Lancaster Blockchain Community for this. Speaking to students about blockchain and helping them see the possibilities is something I never take for granted. Thank you for this and Lets keep Building

A good friend advised me to start sharing my stories to motivate other people i guess i will start doing that

We Will Fly One Day

Very happy Devcon 9 is coming to Lisbon 🇵🇹 @EFDevcon is truly one of the best rooms in Ethereum.

But for many of us in Africa, the road to Devcon matters as much as Devcon itself.

India was tough. Many Africans couldn’t make it to Mumbai because of visa issues, especially Nigerians. I barely saw any Nigerian passport holders there, and that hurt to see.

Argentina showed what’s possible. The government worked with the Devcon team on visas for Devconnect, and so many Africans showed up in Buenos Aires. That’s the standard we need for Lisbon.

For Example Ghanaians don’t even have a Portuguese embassy at home, and the Schengen process costs a lot before you’ve bought a flight.

My ask to the @EFDevcon team: let’s work with Portugal on a similar visa arrangement, share invitation letters early, and support scholars and speakers through the process, not just with tickets.

Let’s make sure the builders who should be in the room actually get there. We will fly one day 🌍

How @EFDevcon is treating me right now 😁
