Hello, World!

Community. It's a fellowship; a sense of space and belonging with people of common interests. On a platform such as Whaleshares, written words, shared photographs, music created and shared, all of it is an expression to sculpt a common language and build a safe space for creative expression.

Introducing lexiwitness

Our mission is to be good stewards in the foundational thinking behind Whaleshares.

Friends in a Web of Trust

Focused on maintaining a human touch, we are developing a sense of sodality for fair and common sense governance to help build this platform into a remarkable destination for content creators.

Partners in Community

@lexikon082 and @merej99 are no strangers to building community and understanding the importance of encouraging members to become better content creators and curators for the good of the community; to think beyond one’s self and mentor the next generation of blockchain chroniclers. Both active on Steemit since 2016, they have launched several pay-it-forward initiatives as well as activities which encourage meaningful community participation.

@lexikon082 organized the Hamburger Saint Project, a pay-it-forward plan to honor the life of a fallen friend in combat. The pay-it-forward concept is a reminder of the impact we can each have on humanity. Simple, selfless acts of kindness toward a fellow human can not only change the trajectory of a person’s life but have an positive “butterfly effect” on the world as a whole. The Hamburger Saint Project hopes to spur others to continue making the effort to spur positive change in the world and foster a sense of community.

@merej99 singlehandedly managed the Community Engagement Challenge, endearingly referred to as “The Beast.” From her early days on Steemit, her mantra has been to follow The Three C’s: Content creation, Curation, Comments. This is the foundation to building a strong tribe. Her pay-it-forward initiatives have helped other members get over some of life’s hurdles by donating STEEM and acknowledging them; a small token to say you matter.

Why vote for lexiwitness

Our goal is to incorporate the lessons we’ve learned in community building from Steemit and implement them here on Whaleshares. We want to nurture a thriving community of quality content developers whose goal is to build a tribe of engaged and active individuals.

Our plan

  • Curate quality posts
  • Mentorship
  • Launch community challenges which promote quality content and engagement
  • Actively use social media to recruit new members to Whaleshares
  • Keep learning and sharing

As a Witness, we endeavor to keep Whaleshares stable by putting the well-being of the community first. We are committed to contributing our time, energy, and skill toward promoting and growing a healthy community of content creators. While we are still painfully new to the technology, we are devoted to learning all we can in order to provide fair, common sense governance.
