and the current leader of Polkadot -one of the world’s foremost

Web3 projects- he is recognized globally as a technological

visionary. He transcends the role of a mere developer, consis-

tently advocating a future vision of a decentralized society as an

“engineer with philosophy.” In addition, while a scientist, he pos-

sesses a deep appreciation for culture and the arts. Through Web3,

he has expanded his work to address cultural challenges such as

freedom of expression, privacy protection, and fair compensation

for creators. His approach, which seamlessly fuses science and

artistic expression, exemplifies the ideal figure of a “scientist and

creator.” Furthermore, through Web3, he continues to confront

pressing issues of modern society -such as borders, inequality, and

the concentration of power- proposing new frameworks that

empower individuals to live autonomously. He is both a chal-

lenger to social disparity and an ethical architect for humanity.

Despite his already remarkable achievements, he remains at the

forefront as a developer, thinker, and practitioner. He truly

embodies a pioneer who is shaping the next 100 years. With deep

respect and heartfelt gratitude, we are honored to present this
