Jian Costa

My name is Jian Costa and I am from Brazil. Entrepreneur and investor.

My journey in the crypto and NFT space began when I made my first investment in an NFT. Since then, I have dedicated myself to working in this field and building everything related to it. My experience, coupled with my enthusiasm for education, community building, and business creation around NFTs and Web3, make me a good candidate for this role

I am the founder of ViaNFT, the first Podcast about NFTs in Brazil, as well as weekly posts, videos, threads and articles (https://beacons.ai/vianft.eth).

I have traveled across 4 continents to attend the main blockchain and NFT events in the world. I got to know projects, people and better understand what is happening around the world in our niche.

I believe I can help because I have experience in crypto and NFT, entrepreneurship, marketing, community building, partnerships, and a deep understanding of the Aptos ecosystem.

Experience:
I have actively helped the Near Brasil project since its inception back in 2022 to 2023.
I also helped to create and build the Aurora Brazil community and Tezos Brazil Community.
In 2025 I co-founded, with other great people, OffChain Brazil, the brazilian arm of OffChain global and we are doing IRL events around the country.

I am also building Feraz, an NFT IP project to be the face of crypto in Latam.
