Core Values

  • Ensure the interests of RIF holders are represented. I welcome communication with all holders.

  • Simplify the core protocol, eliminate or externalize low-value complexity. This is essential for a DAO and also creates more space in our “complexity budget” to onboard high value features.

  • Developing sustainable, decentralized systems. I fully support reaching an end game where the protocol can run itself with simple oversight.

Delegate Statement

My goal is to ensure Rootstock Collective properly allocates its assets to grow Rootstock into a top class blockchain that effectively complements Bitcoin and gain the trust of Bitcoin holders.

To do this, I will emphasize reducing complexity and building easy to evaluate processes, to ensure that both delegates and RIF holders can understand the protocol and it’s governance. Simplicity is essential to decentralization, both to avoid hidden centralization points and to identify potential weaknesses and waste.

I will support proposals that provide strong risk-adjusted returns, with clear metrics to evaluate their success. I will object to proposals with unjustifiably high costs, lack accountability or don’t fit the broader goals of Rootstock.

As a delegate, I commit to providing honesty, transparency and openness to both RIF holders and the community.

As an update, some personal events have been taking up a lot of my time and I will be stepping down as a delegate.

I am happy to see such an active DAO and am sure it will thrive.
