  given name: Richard Irving
  motivations: “I want to be a dRep because I’m an everyday staker with DNEWS. I see Cardano’s potential for regular folks like me. Governance feels tech-heavy; I’ll make it simple. I’m driven by the community and fairness—rewards should reach everyone. Personally, I’ve invested a lot of time, money and knowledge, learning crypto hands-on with few IT skills, just curiosity. Professionally, I’m a news junkie—DNEWS hooked me with clear updates. I’ll share that: practical staking tips, news-driven votes, all on X @EverydayADA I want to grow our voice to 1M ADA delegated, proving non-tech stakers can shape the future. Delegate to me for practical, everyday governance that pays off.”
  objectives: I believe Cardano thrives when everyone—tech-savvy or not—can benefit and have a say. I’m a regular staker, I’ll back treasury projects that fund news and education—like DNEWS, to onboard more everyday folks. I want a fair, simple Cardano: low fees, clear rules, and community wins. I’ll post every vote on X so you know where your ADA stands.
  qualifications: As @EverydayADA my qualifications come from staking and learning from DNEWS, and other news outlets. I’ve learned Cardano hands-on: staking rewards, pool dynamics, and governance basics. My news obsession—honed by DNEWS and other outlets—keeps me sharp on updates like Voltaire and Chang, perfect for voting on treasury or APY GAs. I’m a communicator, breaking crypto down simply on X for everyday stakers. No coding, just hustle: I’ve tracked markets, joined pools, and now aim for 1M ADA delegated. My knack for fairness and £ growth—pushing 6% APY or news projects—makes me a dRep who gets regular folks. Delegate to me for a voice that’s lived it.”
