Why Galaxis?” by Andras Kristof
Inspiration:
I’ve always been fascinated by science fiction and the idea of humanity reaching for the stars. Growing up in Hungary during the 1980s, personal computers were rare. I was lucky enough to develop a deep interest in technology after spending hours learning programming on a Sinclair ZX81. That sense of curiosity and exploration stayed with me throughout my life and led me to where I am today with Galaxis. The name “Galaxis” represents the vast, interconnected systems of stars and planets — each unique yet part of something bigger, just like creators and their communities. It symbolizes a future where everyone — creators, developers, communities — can collaborate, grow, and thrive together.
Innovation:
My journey into Web3 started in 2013 when I helped build the first Bitcoin ATM in Singapore, long before NFTs (or smart contracts for that matter) existed.
I’ve seen firsthand how disruptive blockchain technology can be. When I first learned about NFTs, I quickly realized their potential, that they can fundamentally change how people can organize and monetize their ideas and creativity.
Galaxis was born to give the makers, the “crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently” their own platform, where they can thrive, grow and build.
Galaxis was born to take digital assets beyond speculative hype and build a sustainable platform where communities could thrive through ownership and utility. Galaxis doesn’t just provide tools — it offers an entire ecosystem where creators can build, grow, and sustain their communities for the long term.
Execution:
Think of a Galaxis community as a spaceship. It is self-sustained, it needs direction, leaders and a crew.
Galaxis is the factory floating around Earth that builds and launches these spaceships. Galaxis gives you supplies and information. It can help with updates, direction and communication. But it’s fundamentally you and your crew that are responsible for your spaceship and your journey. Galaxis lets you go, and with this, it hands over all the power and responsibility.
Just as vessels soar into the vast expanse of space, creators on Galaxis can launch their ideas and watch them grow and thrive in a decentralized world, free from centralized restrictions.
