I met Ganesh through a mutual friend at SFU. Back then, we were just dreamers and wide eyed undergrads. Learning and absorbing everything going on around us. Fast forward a few years, I was working with Blast Radius and Ganesh was trying his hand at social games. One Friday, a few of us met up for beers and that’s when I handed my old business card to Ganesh. Those days he was renting a desk at A Thinking Ape’s office. Later that same business card got me a job with A Thinking Ape and we found ourselves working in the same office. Over the next 2 years I saw Ganesh work hard and stay relentless.

When Dungeons & Data was initially conceptualized, the idea was to design a challenge campaign that incorporates a set of different tasks in and beyond social media while remaining accommodating to a large number of participants of different backgrounds; from airdrop hunters to sophisticated crypto users as well as citizen data scientists. We discovered, however, that Dungeons & Data presented a far greater and more important opportunity; to educate the community. For a horizontal innovation like blockchain and crypto, education is of utmost importance if we are to witness mainstream adoption. Ultimately, the responsibility falls on the protocols, enterprises, and everyone in between to educate the community.
