Title: [Witness proposal] kennybll-accnt
Post by: kennybll-accnt on December 16, 2018, 03:47:08 am

Hello Bitshares community! My name is Kenneth, but I go by kennybll, you can call me either, or Kenny, or Ken, doesn't matter to me. I am a full stack react developer and am currently working for Whaleshares. Whaleshares is a fork of Steem, based on Graphene. Whaleshares is tightly integrated with Bitshares through the power of WhaleTokens, or UIAs. I have been a witness for Whaleshares since the launch, and part of the private testnet. I had ran a Scorum witness as well, but I'm not much of a sports guy so I decided to disable my witness, and lets others who are be top 20's.

I have helped a bit with the bitshares-ui repository. I have been grabbing some issues from Github and working on them. I currently have one pull request. My github is https://github.com/Kennybll (https://github.com/Kennybll). I don't know how to write c++ but can read it. I have been studying the Graphene blockchains for a year now, and am continually learning. I've always wanted to help with the development with Bitshares. This is one of many ways to do so, and I would love to do it. I still don't know everything about Bitshares, but I can be a great witness, developer, and learner.

What I'll Be Doing

• Working on tasks from bitshares-ui
• Running a witness
• Working with Whaleshares which brings more Bitshares users
• Eventually have a seed node

Witness Node - Dedicated

• 16 GB of Ram
• 160 GB SSD
• 1G/S Connection
• Location: New York

Eventually I will also have a backup witness server as I grow rank.

I know I have to prove myself, and I plan on it. I hope the community helps support my witness.

My witness node is currently syncing, about 50% there.

If you like what I'm doing or who I am, please vote  :) .

Please setup a block producer for public testnet and have that approved first!
