Episode 57: An Azircon Conversation


Welcome back to the People's Guild. This week, we make a visit to Houston, Texas to sit down with one of the more pragmatic and community-driven whales of our game. He's been involved as a heavyweight advocate in the Hive and Splinterlands' ecosystems since 2018.

We proudly welcome @azircon to the show.

We have an absolute pleasure sitting down for a colorful storytelling session with the self-proclaimed Kaonashi of Hive. Azircon shares with us his personal chronicles with the blockchain, through his seemingly stumbling upon Steem back in 2018, through to the announcement of land, the @j6969 saga, subsequent fall-out and fire-sale, to Runi and beyond. We are privileged to hear our guest's perspective and philosophy as we make our way through the annals of Splinterlands' history.

As we are celebrating 5 years of Splinterlands, this feels like a very appropriate conversation as we get taken through the long and winding tale of the game - a great opportunity to take a moment to reflect on all that has happened and consider all that still could happen - and what a guest to have said conversation with.

Enjoy the episode!

Such an inspiring Podcast for me personally, I consider @azircon as one of my mentors in this space, a support mechanism not only for me but for the whole of Team Philippines and because of this, we consistently strive to better ourselves and our impact within the Community. I am glad that you were able to do this, people may decide to change their views, I hope that it can be seen that without people like Azircon, greed would most definitely take precedence and Community would be made secondary. Thank you for being the voice of those unheard, we salute and stand behind you!

thank you Mango. Perhaps more praise than I deserve. I like to point to the greater audience, that I am not a very popular person :)

No, I am a person that does not praise easily, you deserve it, you have taught me so much and I try my best to reflect this to our Community through the sharing of blessings. Thank you!

Inspiring purpose that Azircon is fulfilling, that is for certain. We can all take away from this conversation and do a little bit better. Simple guidelines ole' Kaonashi expects the community to play by - be kind, follow the rules. For the most part, this is a great community that we've built over the years and I would hate to see it be spoiled. Let's go!!

Appreciate you taking the time to listen and share this, Mango!

These are well known posts, but still many haven’t read them. I think they are still relevant

I am surprised and sad to see that we have largely failed you at hive in terms of exposure. I will try and change that

Hey man - it's all good! We love the conversations this podcast has afforded us to have and the growth in exposure has been slow and steady. We'll continue to do our best to present meaningful conversations with inspiring folks and share their stories with the community, regardless of growth, but any additional eyes & ears are always welcome! That hopefully just means we'll have a bigger pool of great people to bring onto the show. Thank ya sir!

You are welcome. Hive is a strange and bizarre place and like real life it's not fair.

Your best episode yet. It goes a long way if you can change ones opinion about your guest the way it did for me.

This is some of the best feedback we've ever received - thank you for taking the time to say so.

Giving @azircon the opportunity to share his story & articulate his why is exactly the type of conversation we aim to have here - bonus that it lands on open ears and resonates with folks.

We've got a couple more OG community members coming up in the next few episodes as we try to paint the full picture of the 5 year anniversary. Hope you enjoy 'em!

Thanks again @flauwy !
