Introducing myself (Bruce Bates)

I am Bruce Bates. I am a developer and an artist.

I created a blockchain called contractless that is unlike any other blockchain ever released before. I redesigned every single aspect of blockchains from the ground up.

Contractless is currently in testnet stage.

It is developed so absolutely anyone can run a node from desktop, laptop, or webhosting as long as they have a public IP address and can open a port.

As an artist I create digital abstract artworks without using AI. Most of my digital abstracts of related to human faces and bodies.

Not sure what else to say in a first post, but aside from this, I am trying to figure out how to add a avatar and profile cover. I tried linking to a site hosting my avatar and tried uploading the image directly (128x128). Neither option seems to have worked.

I did read the guides about this but they seem a bit dated. One tried saying I needed to update my avatar through steemitwallet settings, but they had no such option.

Another said you need reputation points before adding avatars. So no idea what's going on there, but I expect with the help of the community I will learn as I go.

Oh final note, I am not active on many social networks but I do use linkedin. https://www.linkedin.com/in/bruce-bates/
