Jen Bilango: Empowering the Filipino Community and Leading the Web3 Revolution
Jen Bilango, the PH Country Manager for Coins PH, grants us access to an exclusive interview in which she discusses her transition from conventional banking to the Web3 and blockchain industries. Jen presents her inspirations, experiences, and objectives for Coins in the Philippines, with a heavy emphasis on community-building and diversity. In the future, she sees the Philippines being a major player in the cryptocurrency sector as she leads attempts to inform and onboard Filipinos into the Web3 revolution.
Jen acknowledges that her experience in investment banking made her hesitant before she fully immersed herself in the Web3 sector. Her drive to build relationships and support others in realizing their aspirations, however, catapulted her into the metaverse. She was aware of how social media and digital environments may promote deep friendships across conventional borders.
Coins of the Age: Continuing the Journey
Jen emphasizes the value of community involvement and education, drawing on her experience as the previous general manager and co-lead of Blockchain Space. Her responsibilities at Coins include rekindling connections with Web3 communities, advancing educational programs via hackathons and workshops, and forming alliances with Web3 and conventional businesses.
Jen’s top priorities as Coins’ PH Country Manager are to pay attention to the community and improve the usability of the Coins app. Her goal is to make Coins the preferred software for Filipinos looking to purchase, sell, trade, spend, and earn cryptocurrency. She wants to make sure that the Filipino community actively participates in and leads the Web3 revolution by placing a priority on ease and wealth development.
Teaching people about Web3 and integrating them into the ecosystem is Jen’s top focus. Whether it be through trade, gaming, or upcoming DeFi offerings, she believes in delivering a variety of channels for involvement. Coins PH is closely collaborating with GameFi initiatives and has already introduced Coins Arcade because it recognizes the potential of GameFi to attract new customers. Additionally, a scheme to match incentives between the corporation and the community is being developed.
Coins Arcade and the Future: Affiliate Program
An original user experience is what Coins Arcade, a platform with games from Filipino gaming studios, intends to deliver. Coins Arcade, which currently has 80 million registered players, makes it easier for people to find Filipino game developers and assists them in reaching a wider audience. The future affiliate program will encourage users to promote adoption and education and further strengthen community involvement.
Jen wants the community of Filipinos as a whole, including Coins users and clients, to embrace their part in the Web3 revolution. She exhorts them to be prepared to take the initiative and lead, establishing the Philippines as a major player in the global cryptocurrency market. Making it simple for everyone to interact with cryptocurrencies, Coins will continue to stress inclusion, Filipino pride, and ease.
Jen Bilango is driving Coins’ aim to empower the Filipino community and place the Philippines at the forefront of the Web3 revolution with her vision and passion. Coins wants to transform how Filipinos interact with digital assets by putting an emphasis on education, community building, and easy access to crypto. Jen is leading the charge, and she wants Filipinos to follow suit and leave their mark on Web3.
