Hello DAO
I hereby apply to being a member of the next security council.
I am currently a member of the Superfluid foundation, and a signer of the initial security council.
My activity is mostly taking place in the background / under the hood. Some of it is publicly visible in my github profile.
Where I’m coming from:
I had an affinity for free software from the start (on my desktop, Linux has been winning for more than 2 decades), and - having started my online journey in web1 - disliked the drift of Internet-rooted systems towards political centralization and disrespect for privacy.
Over the years I witnessed many promising projects (e.g. Diaspora) popping up and gaining some mindshare, but ultimately going nowhere.
Learning about the emerging web3 ecosystem, I came to the conclusion that this was our best shot at changing trajectory - web1 was about protocols, not platforms. So is web3, but adding economic tools required to compete with web2 business models.
Streaming money was an idea which especially captured my imagination because of its non-skeuomorphic nature - instead of re-implementing the concept of money as is, we could evolve it to take advantage of the new technical substrate. So I built it.
With Superfluid I eventually found a team with the skills and determination to make streaming money more than an experiment, and - with scalable distributions - going even beyond. So I joined forces.
My current responsibility at Superfluid is to maintain protocol v1 and related tooling.
This makes me very familiar with the protocol and allows me to understand proposed governance actions.
If the DAO wishes so, I’d happily be a signer for the next security council.
