Short Pitch (TL;DR):

With a deep technical expertise paired with long commitment to the Ethereum ecosystem, I’m aiming to provide an objective of what’s going on in the CoW ecosystem.

Expertise and Experience:

I’ve been involved in the Ethereum ecosystem since 2014, when I started a local ethereum meetup in Sweden. Since then I’ve been deeply involved in various projects, most notably I co-founded Ceramic network. Most of my experience is on the technical side of things and I always strive for deep understanding of infrastructure that I and my projects rely on.

Involvement in the CoW Ecosystem:

Until recently I have not been deeply involved with the CoW ecosystem. However, I’ve been aware of and followed the project since before it launched. As I’ve been involved in various parts of the Gnosis ecosystem in general.

Motivation:

My main personal motivation for wanting to be a delegate is that I want to learn more about the MEV & transaction supplychain. I have some broad and general understanding, but see this as an opportunity to really dive much deeper. I aim to share my leanings with the community as I do this!

Conflict of Interest:

Non that I’m aware of

CoW Tokens Allocated for Voting:

Hi Joel - awesome, thank you for posting your introduction. I saw you’ve included a short Snapshot statement! :slight_smile: You can also link your full intro from here, which will ensure that delegators will see you whole pitch.

If you’d like to be considered a “recognized” delegate, a recognition awarded by a Grants committee member, would you please link your application in this thread with a statement along the lines of “I’d like to be considered a recognized delegate and commit to active participation in CoW DAO’s governance”

Next steps on our end would be more publicity around the program, which we’re aiming for in January. Excited to take CoW DAO’s governance to the next level!
