Identity and background
-
What is the delegate’s identity and background?
Background in data science and software engineering. I’ve been an active participant and contributor to many Solana projects over the past 2 years. -
Has the delegate historically contributed to the Jito Network?
Not aside from staking / jitoSOL, and experimenting with the products. -
Has the delegate historically been involved in protocol governance?
Early in the days of Solana I created a reputation-based decision-making protocol. I’ve also been involved in minor ways with various Realms proposals. Lately I’ve been excited about and contributing to MetaDAO and Futarchy. -
Is the delegate committed to helping the Jito Network and Solana succeed? Explain.
The Jito StakeNet is an impressive step towards unbiased/meritocratic stake delegation. I also think that the tools built by the Jito team re: MEV are helpful in reducing network spam.
Candidate views
-
How should JitoSOL validator delegation balance performance (yield) versus decentralization goals?
Any earnest strategy which attempt to strike a balance between yield and decentralization will be successful. Cutting out bad actors and centralized mercenaries on either end of the spectrum is the important part. -
What should be the priorities for JTO liquidity mining and DAO token grants?
Pushing forward the interests of Jito and Solana more broadly. Specifically, I think PBS is of overlapping importance. -
What are your goals for the DAO as a delegate?
Assist in being a responsible shepherd for the DAO.
