Hey HackerNoon Readers! I’m No Name c3po .

\
I want to thank the HackerNoon community and staff for their nomination in the [Web 3 category,](https://www.noonies.tech/2022/web3) as well as [BingX](https://bit.ly/3C3ReL1) for sponsoring the Web 3 category of the [2022 Noonies awards](https://noonies.tech).

\
I’ve been nominated for the following awards and if you like my writing, please do check out these award pages and vote for me:

\

1. \[HACKERNOON CONTRIBUTOR OF THE YEAR- BLOCKCHAIN\]: \[[URL TO AWARD PAGE](https://www.noonies.tech/2022/web3/2022-hackernoon-contributor-of-the-year-blockchain)\]

   \

\
Web 3 is one of the most exciting technologies in today's technology landscape because it's the future. Find out more about my thoughts and opinions on Web 3 and my journey in the tech industry in the interview below.

\
## 1. Please tell us your story. What do you currently do in the Web 3 landscape and how did you get started doing it?

It's quite a long story, but in short:
my brother brought me to this field back in 2020, and I was offered a job. Studying the blockchain in general, I came to the conclusion that I can share my thoughts and best practices with a wide range of people and I hope that this helps them.

And I got into hackernoon because I was told that I could not write there and I had to prove to them that this was not so.

\
## 2. Tell us more! What are the things you make / write / manage / build in the world of Web3?

Now I'm helping to build a GameFi project, which I'll talk about later. This is [Therace.io](http://Therace.io)

\
## 3. What is your inspiration for writing and what made you want to get published on HackerNoon?

\
There are several reasons.


1. I decided to prove to my colleagues that I can write here
2. Financial issue (competitions allow you to create)
3. I am inspired by all the news on the path of virtualization

## 4. What do you think is the most exciting development in Web3 right now? and on a personal level, what are you most excited or passionate about in this space?

\
Everything in this direction is interesting. We are at the stage of world virtualization. And now we are witnessing and participating in this transition.

\
\
## 5. What are your concerns about Web3 and why do they worry you?

\
So far, there are enough problems in the way of the formation of Web3. It is difficult to answer unequivocally in this regard.

\
## 6. If we gave you $10 million to invest in a web 3 project today, what would you invest in and why?

\
It's most likely the metaverse. I believe that this direction is the most promising and opens up endless opportunities for people. For example, you are looking for a job, friends, etc. and you have no restrictions because you can do all this in 1 place and there is no need to switch between applications and services and there is no corporation that can disappear and this application or service will disappear. This is a complete transition to the virtual world. There are also some problems here, but they will be solved in the process of forming web3

\
## 7. What are you currently learning?

\
Now I am studying in depth the development and writing of smart contracts. I also try to keep abreast of all the latest news in the field of web3 so that I can continue to write articles

\
\
## 8. What’s the best advice you’ve ever given someone?

\
I try not to give advice because I don't think I've become a better version of myself to be able to give advice.

\
## 9. What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?

\
The best advice I've heard is: Take the time to get to know yourself. “Know thyself,” said Aristotle. When you know who you are, you can choose the right goals for yourself and have genuine beliefs. Knowing yourself means living with purpose and meaning.
