I have read and understood the Delegate Commitment Process: Yes

I understand that becoming a delegate is a significant commitment: Yes

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

For the last few years, I’ve been working with projects across the L2 space to try to push forward Ethereum’s L2 vision. I have worked significantly with Fuel Labs, contributed to the native bridges of both Optimism and Arbitrum, and have been working with Lito Coen and the L222 team to bring liquidity mining incentives to Ethereum rollups.

I’m very interested in further contributing to the L2 ecosystem by helping guide Optimism’s governance moving forward.

Furthermore, I am a founder of CryptoStats, a public-goods project that will be deploying on Optimism within the coming weeks, and I believe the interests of CryptoStats and Optimism are heavily alligned.

My view on the Optimistic Vision:

I was inspired by last week’s Bankless episode, outlining the Optimism Collective and the path forward for this project. Specifically, I believe project that are mission driven (such as Optimism with their mission to fund public goods) will allow for growth that extends beyond pre-existing use-cases.

My view on the first three articles of the Working Constitution

  1. Strongly agree. Decentralized governance still has a long way to go to becoming mature, and there is a need to be open to changing and experimenting
  2. Agreed, very excited to see this experiment in expanding governance beyond the plutocracy of coin-voting, while still maintining a fungable token
  3. Agreed, the foundation model has worked well for other web3 projects
