Luca, the first one to find Will

We lost Will at the Blockchain Expo in Amsterdam RAI. As a child, I once got lost in a supermarket, so I could foresee the anxiety Will was going through.

Will, where are you!?

We soon realised that shouting was creating some scandal in the conference, so we decided to take a more discrete one-to-one approach.

-Have you seen this man?

-No, sorry.

We didn’t see Will for a while, and that was a big issue for us. Hey, he is our Head of Marketing and Communication, a fundamental piece if you want to get yourself known in a Blockchain Expo. Furthermore, it was his 32nd birthday, so we were afraid he went off to celebrate it without us.

For lots of different reasons, we HAD to find Will. So we decided to give away 100.000 PARQ tokens (10.000 USD) to the first stranger who would find Will and wish him a happy birthday.

-Have you seen this man?

-Hmmm, I don’t think so. Is it you with a beard?

The Quest

Eddie and I decided to spread our concern about not finding Will. We showed his picture to a bunch of participants in the conference. Eddie walked around with a giant cheque, and that caught the eye of a bunch of people, who would approach us out of curiosity.

-Have you seen this man?

-(puts glasses on) I think I didn’t

-Oh, no! He’s lost and it’s his birthday today. Look, if you’re the first one to find him we will transfer 10.000 dollars in PARQ tokens to your ERC20 wallet!

Luckily, this soon created a spirit of community, and soon we had our own search team looking for Will. And guess what:

It worked!

-Hey Will, happy birthday.

The first one to find Will was Luca, a young Italian entrepreneur and CEO of Bcheckit. We had a winner and, most importantly, we had Will! Short after that, Mustafa and Ali, both partners in Ideofuzion, also spotted Will. We believe that no good action should remain unrewarded, so based on the principle that sharing is caring, they also got their PARQ in their ERC20.

We would like to shout out a huge THANK YOU to all those who helped finding Will. We were just so happy to find him. In order to avoid this kind of situations, we’re discussing the possibility of implementing a GPS microchip into his skin. It might sound extreme, but hey, better safe than sorry.
