Delegate Statement

As a delegate, I will represent fellow Optimism builders, users, and believers in Ethereum. I tell pretty much whoever will listen that rollups are broadband for blockchains and that they will change the world. As a delegate, I can help make this a reality and play a small role in scaling Ethereum to the masses.

My view on the Optimistic Vision: The most important line in the vision is, “The Optimism Collective will dispel the myth that public goods cannot be profitable.” Hindsight is 20/20, and for the first time, we can use it to our advantage to allocate capital (and potentially other resources) to public goods! The traditional view of public goods implies that they are unprofitable and underfunded. I want the Collective to prove this wrong!

I think RPGF presents a new paradigm for human coordination. Today it directs funding to web3 devs who built useful tools, but tomorrow it can and will do so much more.

My view on the first three articles of the Working Constitution:

The transitory nature is good. In four years we will have a MUCH better idea of what effective governance looks like for crypto networks. I have always encouraged L2s to experiment (previously in development but now in governance) and am happy there is a commitment to it. This is ambitious but I have nothing but praise. I am genuinely excited for the first Holder vs. Citizen conflict and think the Collective will come out of it stronger. In my view this early level of control is necessary. I only ask that the Foundation maintain a rigorous internal process for treasury allocation and publish some sort of regular transparency report. I do not think the Foundation should ever be arbitrarily forced to dissolve. It should remain a steward and driving force for ecosystem growth and will naturally be made redundant by other actors.

My skills and areas of expertise: I know DEX market structure and rollup economics very well

My favorite Web3 projects: Conduit (i am biased), Flashbots, Etherscan, L2Beat
