Hi, I'm Pablo 👋
About me 👋
I hate cities more and more every day, I would like to go to my village in the mountains and be able to work calm and inspired without the daily noise and hustle and bustle of the city.
I am passionate about Bitcoin and I am passionate about nostr, I am also passionate about my work and feeling that I am part of something. That's why I want to do my bit and contribute with my experience and some of my time.
How did you get into bitcoin?
The first time I heard about Bitcoin was talking to some co-workers back in 2011, they were talking about buying a device called a "miner" with which you could get Bitcoin. At that time I could not contribute because I was very short of money and I did not pay more attention to it.
In December 2017 I became interested again out of pure greed and bought in 20,000, from there I started to get interested in technology and how Bitcoin works, I fell straight down the rabbit hole and, since then, I try to keep learning about Bitcoin, not only about how it works, but also for its implications in the economy and in a philosophical aspect.
What's something that excites you about the space now?
The combination of nostr and Bitcoin via Lightning Network I think is going to be a paradigm shift, I'm really interested in these two things right now. Collaborating on nostr helps me understand much better what's going on behind the scenes.
What's your spirit animal/star sign?
Dog / Scorpio!
My roles & skills 🦄
Industrial Design Engineer by training, although I never got to dedicate myself to it. I was lucky enough to direct my career towards the web world and I am grateful for it.
For 10 years I dedicated my professional career to frontend development, working daily with HTML, CSS and JavaScript combined with web design.
The last two years I have turned my professional career exclusively to the development of digital products, focusing on interface design and user experience. I love it because I'm in a totally transversal position between product and development working on a daily basis with product and engineer managers. What I love the most is working with Figma.
How can you help others?
I think I have a lot to contribute in terms of digital product design, I love to do research and learn new things, I think it's curiosity that makes me a better professional. I would love to continue collaborating designing web or application user interfaces.
What I'm currently working on 🧑💻
I've been collaborating with @KoalaSat on Nostros for a few months. I was very attracted to the idea of nostr from the very beginning and I offered to collaborate with the UI design. I'm very satisfied with this KoalaSat project and it was a challenge from the first moment, Koala programming skills are impressive.
What can the BOLT.FUN community help you with right now?
More people contributing to the project on GitHub would be awesome.
