Ambassador of the Month

A monthly program to celebrate the outstanding contributions from our ambassador community.

Ishimec | Polish Community

My name is Maxim. I’ve been in the crypto community for over five years but really got involved with projects in the ecosystem in 2020. This fascination began with Polkadot, where I learned about Moonbeam almost immediately. I got interested in Moonbeam because the project was created with the goal of tackling interoperability challenges.
I have been in the Moonbeam Ambassador program for around a year. I’ve supported the Moonbeam Polish community, and I’m also leading an initiative to keep all our international communities informed with a weekly recap of Moonbeam updates that is translated into 15+ languages. I love leading an initiative that brings helpful content to our communities worldwide! During my experience in the ambassador program, I’ve found that there’s space for all ideas and initiatives. The Moonbeam team evaluates every idea, gives feedback, and many initiatives are put into action! I feel we can all be heard.

Join the Moonbeam Ambassador program and build the multi-chain future with us!
