Hey Hackers!
I’m Vision NP and I’m a developer, tech writer, and physicist. I am glad to announce that I have been nominated for the 2022 Noonies Award.
A huge thanks to the HackerNoon community and staff for considering me worthy of this opportunity. I’ve been nominated in the following categories and if you like my writing, please do check out these award pages and vote for me:
HACKERNOON CONTRIBUTOR OF THE YEAR- BLOCKCHAIN:

As a tech writer, I believe that the most exciting technology of the present is blockchain because
Humans naturally want freedom. With the changing pace of technology, people are looking for freedom in the online world to manage privacy, data, security, and transparency– blockchain technology fulfills that. Learn more about my thoughts and opinions on blockchain and my journey in the tech industry via the interview below.
1. Tell us about your journey. What do you do and what do you love about it?
As I mentioned earlier, I’m a young physicist. Quantum physics is my favorite branch of physics where I studied the behaviors of matter on an atomic and subatomic scale with corresponding mathematical treatments. There were several kinds of research going on that the different quantum mechanical phenomena like superposition, interference, and entanglement could inspire us to create the new computation that we call “Quantum computing” today. So, Quantum computing would be extremely helpful to solve very complex mathematical problems in a very short duration for advanced next-level blockchain technology. It inspired me to dive into the new field of tech where I could use my physic knowledge to automate science with endless possibilities. In addition, I support the freedom to control our data and privacy in the digitalized world with enhanced security–of course, the blockchain is the tech that I love the most for that.
2. Tell us more about your work. What do you make/write/manage/build?
It’s been already a long, I have been writing blockchain-related articles on the different online resources to spread awareness. Tech literacy is required to recognize the core values of blockchain technology, that’s why I need to contribute my knowledge. Currently, I am working on different blockchain projects like Everscale, Experty, etc in various roles and have been focused to build different blockchain-based solutions like decentralized voting protocols, DeBots for the different real-world applications, Metaverse gaming, AI-enabled blockchain, and many more. I am very active on the online forum where we can interact with experts from different parts of the world to exchange ideas.
3. How did you start writing? What made you choose HackerNoon for publishing your work?
Online forums like Cryptotalk, Bitcointalk, Reddit, Quora, etc inspired me to be a tech writer. Initially, I was active to discuss many tech issues with forum members. Later, I worked as a technical writer for different projects. HackerNoon was found in the search engines while I was searching for the best tech publishing platform with real readers from all around the world. Fortunately, it is the best platform with huge network traffic.
4. What excites you in tech? Tell us about your favorite technology and why you are passionate about it.
An “Endless Possibility” in tech excites me the most.
As far as we have no limitations in our imagination, everything is possible in tech. Of course, Blockchain Technology is my favorite. The features like better transparency, financial freedom, security, seamless gaming experiences, distributed ledger, and many more from the blockchain captivated me. We can build so many real-world blockchain-based applications where users should not trust any centralized entities. Now, blockchain-based Metaverse is becoming another hottest trend that could entirely change the way that we interact with this world.
5. What were some of the challenges you faced being a tech writer and how did you overcome them?
As a tech writer, there are so many challenges to face like,
-
We have so many unique terms introduced in the crypto and blockchain sphere like DeFi, DeBots, DEXs, FOMO, etc. but unfortunately, editors from different online resources just run the software to detect the mistakes but don’t care to spend time on a manual verification (Relatable to HackerNoon too) and eventually reject the submissions.
-
Devs announce application modifications after compiling all the documents for the publications so that the document should be re-written by modifying the technical details. -Most of the projects do not reveal the core technical aspects of some specific products and services so I faced a hard time collecting the information so many times.
-
Most of the time, I am acting as a solo writer so, the problem is, I don’t find experts with the proper expertise to review my work. Sometimes, mistakes are unnoticed even after the submissions are published on online resources.
-
I don’t think different tools are designed for plagiarism checks, grammar and punctuation checks, etc. are made friendly for blockchain-based articles but still, editors from so many tech publishing platforms prefer the same outdated tools for the verification. Algorithms of such tools mark the unique words and search the matched texts online to exhibit genuinely written texts as less impressive.
-
Another most serious issue is, even from the decentralized project, I have to deal with some person for the wage after delivering the articles but unfortunately, some of them are found to be corrupted to owe me for a long time.
Well, some of the above challenges have remained unsolved but I’ve been taking some measures to overcome such challenges.
- Technical writing is a social job so I have to work with so many people from different fields. I am improving my social relationships with such people with better communication skills.
- I am spending more time reviewing articles before shipping them to the tech publishing platform for publication.
- I am keeping all the records like transactions, conversation details, etc. to protect myself from malicious people from some projects.
- Most importantly, I am keeping myself up to date with the latest trends and tech.
6. What are you learning/reading currently? Any recommendations for our readers?
Currently, I am working with my tech-savvy guys to invent a new AI-enabled blockchain network. If you are interested in blockchain technology, I have the following recommendations:
- Be active in different active forums where you will get ideas from experts all around the world.
- Keep learning the different programming languages like Rust, Solidity, and the latest tech.
- Keep your mathematical, coding, and other technical knowledge strong to be distinguished among the developers.
7. What is your biggest achievement so far?
I believe a collection of small achievements eventually becomes the biggest one. So, I believe in slow but steady progress in my life. I have won prizes in different article writing competitions. Some of them I would like to mention are:
- The first place to win 0.05 BTC in the Cryptotalk forum’s writing competition,
- The first and Fourth place winners in HackerNoon’s article writing competition,
- The first place to win $3000 (At that time) worth of tokens in Everscale’s article writing competition, etc.
8. If we gave you 10 million dollars to invest in something today, what would you invest in and why?
I would spend that much to build an AI-enabled blockchain ecosystem where many tech-savvy experts are needed. I have a dream to build a blockchain that can overcome all the limitations/challenges faced by most of the current blockchain technology and is upgradeable according to the pace of technology.
9. What advice would you give to someone just starting in this field?
I’d like to advise;
- Be up to date with the latest tech on the market.
- Keep exploring different research reports published by experts and try to apply them in your real-life practice.
- Keep in mind, hard work, dedication, and continuity are the key to success not only in this field but everywhere.
- Be polite to everyone and stay disciplined.
10. What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?
One of the best pieces of advice that I’ve received in my life is from my late teacher i.e. “Life is too short so always keep it in mind. If you think of doing something good, do it immediately.” This advice always gives me more energy and inspiration to do everything.
