Connex platform aims to address the absence of a decentralized job marketplace within the Web3 space. It intends to enable individuals involved in Web3, regardless of their experience level, to showcase their skills and credentials in a decentralized manner. It integrates on-chain credentials with individuals’ uploaded CVs (resumes) using token incentives. This integration of on-chain and off-chain personal credentials is proposed to attract various entities, including Crypto Companies, social DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations), protocol DAOs, NFT (Non-Fungible Token) gated DAOs, and investment DAOs, to the platform. Their goal is to create a platform where individuals involved in Web3 can establish their professional communities based on their credentials, both on-chain and off-chain, and where companies or organizations within the Web3 space can find suitable talent based on these verified credentials.

We hosted an AMA session with Connex on 5th December.

Mr. Ramsy was the host from Crypto Miners and Mr. Charlie Alan was the guest. He shared delightful knowledge and unique features of Connex.

Segment 1️⃣: Introduction

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Hello everyone 👋 Welcome to Our Another AMA Session With Connex

Today, we are very honored to invite Mr. Charlie To be our guest in our today’s session to introduce Connex

Hey

Charlie Alan:
Hi

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Welcome here mate

Thanks for joining with us today

Charlie Alan:
You are welcome. Cannot wait it.

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
First of all can you introduce yourself to us?

Charlie Alan:
Hello everyone, my name is Charlie Alan, and I’m the Community Director for Connex.
I’m really honored to be able to share information about Connex. I’d love to answer any questions you have, we really appreciate your support.

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Glad to have you today Charlie

Now let’s begin our first part of the session — Project introduction

Are you ready mate?

Charlie Alan:
Yes!

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Q1: Some users may not be familiar with Connex, can you give a brief introduction?

Charlie Alan:
Connex is a Professional Network for Web3. Think of us as a decentralized Linkedin. Web2 professional & social networks are built to extract value from their users. Our decentralized model enables everyone that adds value to the network to benefit from the platform’s success. Linkedin is worth approximately $30 Billion. In our decentralized model that value would be shared with the network. Blockchain has truly leveled the playing field. Connex is permissionless and users retain full ownership of their data.

Our goal is to be the number one network for blockchain companies and talent in the world. The smartest people in the world are exiting fang companies and moving into Web3 and joining crypto companies or DAOs. If you want to get ahead in blockchain then we want you on Connex!

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Thanks Charlie for the great start 👏

Now let’s see our second question from this segment

Q2: Why should we go with Connex?

Charlie Alan:
There is currently no web3 job board that can provide information in a decentralized way. At Connex through innovative token incentives, candidates can upload their CV and integrate on-chain credentials with their uploaded CV. With such on-chain and off-chain personal credentials, Crypto Companies, social DAOs, protocol DAOs, NFT gated DAOs, investment DAOs and more are attracted to the platform. Organizations can search for talent from within a pool of token holders. By combining on-chain and off-chain credentials, Connex helps people to create their own web3 professional communities.

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Q3: Could you describe Connex’s tokenomics?

Charlie Alan:
Great question: here is the tokenomics information👇

Connex aims to build a permissionless, open, and collaborative Web3 professional network. The CONX token is an essential component to such infrastructures as it functions as the governance token, incentivizes user participation, and serves as the primary payment token of the Connex ecosystem.

Symbol: CONX
Total supply: 100,000,000
Token Address: 0x1b2128AbC4119474D16Bb0a04200B63B0e68A971

Please read in more detail in our whitepaper on the website: https://connex.gitbook.io/connex/

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Alright Charlie

Now may I ask is $CONX token deflationary?

Charlie Alan:
Yes it is! Candidates can choose to stake $CONX against their experience, if they’re found to have lied about their skills the $CONX will be burnt. Crucially this helps speed up the recruitment process for recruiters and levels the playing field for enthusiastic applicants with confidence in their own abilities.

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Things getting intrested 👌

Now please introduce the CONX token?

Charlie Alan:
Connex aims to build a permissionless, open, and collaborative Web3 professional network. The CONX token is an essential component to this as it functions as the governance token, incentivizes user participation, and serves as the primary payment token of the Connex ecosystem.

Connex is designed to reward high integrity and proof of fraud. CONX tokens are used to reward the platform users. CONX can be used for rewarding people who upload their CVs or reward people who get the most views and likes on content. The amount of CONX tokens rewarded will be determined through the voting and governance feature of the platform. People who create circles on Connex and share their valuable views about the circle topics are also welcomed by the platform.

Conx is already listed on Indodax https://indodax.com/market/CONXIDR, which just saw a 60%+ pump. With real utility and the deflationary aspect we’ve built $CONX in a way which will drive long term value for investors.

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
Is there anything more you’d like to say in this segment?

Charlie Alan:
Thank you for your question! I’m excited to share some great news about Connex (CONX). As of now, I’m thrilled to announce that the price of CONX has reached its all-time high at 15 USDT. This is a significant milestone for our project, and it demonstrates the growing interest and confidence in Connex within the blockchain community. The coins platform utility combined with the deflationary element we truly believe the sky’s the limit.

This achievement is just the beginning of an even brighter future for Connex. Our team is dedicated to further enhancing the project, expanding its reach, and delivering innovative solutions to meet the evolving needs of our users and the broader crypto ecosystem.

We are committed to building a robust and sustainable platform that provides value to our community members and contributes to the overall growth of the blockchain industry. With the support of our passionate community, strategic partnerships, and continuous development efforts, we are confident that Connex will continue to thrive and achieve new milestones in the future.

Thank you for being a part of this exciting journey with us, and we look forward to sharing more updates and achievements with you in the coming months. Together, let’s shape the future of blockchain technology.

Segment 2️⃣: Twitter Questions

1. I read that candidates who stake their $CONX token against their experience stand a chance to lose it if they underperform, so is the amount to be staked for this dependent on the particular jobs in which jobseekers apply for? What metrics are used to determine if jobseekers actually underperformed?

Charlie Alan:
Yes, you are correct. In the Connex ecosystem, candidates have the opportunity to stake their CONX tokens against their experience when applying for jobs. The specific amount to be staked may vary depending on the particular job that jobseekers apply for. The staking amount is typically determined by factors such as the level of expertise required for the job and the potential impact of underperformance.

To determine if jobseekers have underperformed, various metrics are considered. These metrics can include objective performance indicators, such as meeting project deadlines, achieving predetermined targets, or receiving positive feedback from employers. Additionally, subjective evaluations may be taken into account, such as the quality of work, professionalism, and overall contribution to the project or organization.

The evaluation process aims to ensure accountability and incentivize jobseekers to deliver high-quality work. However, it is important to note that the specific metrics and evaluation criteria may vary depending on the nature of the job and the agreement between the parties involved.

Ramsy | Crypto Miners:
2. What measures are in place to ensure the privacy and security of the users’ information, especially concerning the on-chain credentials and activities analysis?

Charlie Alan:
Connex takes the privacy and security of users’ information very seriously, particularly when it comes to on-chain credentials and activities analysis. Several measures are in place to safeguard user data:

1. Encryption: Connex employs strong encryption techniques to protect sensitive user information. Encryption ensures that data transmitted between users and the platform remains secure and unreadable to unauthorized parties.

2. User Anonymity: Connex respects user privacy by implementing measures to maintain user anonymity whenever possible. While on-chain activities may be analyzed for performance evaluation, personal identifying information is kept separate or anonymized to protect user identities.

3. Data Access Control: Connex implements strict access controls to limit who can access user information. Only authorized personnel with a legitimate need to access the data are granted permission.

4. Secure Infrastructure: Connex maintains a secure infrastructure with robust firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular security audits. These measures help protect against unauthorized access and ensure the platform’s overall security.

5. Compliance with Data Protection Regulations: Connex adheres to relevant data protection regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable laws. This ensures that user information is handled in accordance with established privacy standards.

It’s important to note that while Connex implements these security measures, users should also take precautions to protect their own information, such as using strong passwords and enabling two-factor authentication.
