I don't really like voting for individuals / organizations / usernames at MVTE addresses - only clearly defined projects / initiatives / etc...
Individuals don't get operating funds - that's welfare. Projects and initiatives get operating funds.
Tell us your non-MVTE address and vote for your own MVTE address.
If I support your candidacy, I will vote for your non-MVTE address.
If I support funding of specific initiatives, I will vote for your MVTE address and/or donate until funding is complete (which could go on for a while, don't worry...). We would expect status updates, etc. If you need more community funding after that, create a new initiative.
