Hi everyone, My name is Thomas, software engineer from the Netherlands. I joined the forums for my high interest in the Cardano project and I have been enjoying all the content around Cardano/IOHK on channels such as YouTube/Twitter. Like the Cardano project I have a strong preference for purely functional and highly composable programming using my favorite language Haskell. Together with my interests in the traits of the blockchain, such as anonymization, governance and decentralization I think I might fit in here 😉 I hope to have interesting conversations and meet new people. Talk to you soon! Warm regards, Thomas ---
