  1. What have you worked on / how have you contributed to the Web 3.0 ecosystem?
  • I have been involved in the Ethereum community since late 2015 and have invested in a number of Ethereum based projects. In 2017/18 I helped co-organize a number of the SF Ethereum Developers meetups. I am an avid researcher and user of cryptoeconomic incentives (lend, stake, collateralize, leverage, etc.) & dapps. Most recently I was the director of BD & partnerships at a staking as a service startup.
  1. Why do you want to join MetaCartel DAO?
  • Open source protocols, dapps, daos, and other infrastructure need funding help to continue to make improvements on Ethereum.
  • DAOā€™s are in their infancy and to be able to contribute to an edge technology/use case would be intrinsically rewarding & interesting.
  1. What is your pledge size? (min 10 ETH, max 100 ETH)
  • 10 ETH (to start)
  1. What else should we know about you?
  • I frequent Ethereum events (6 ethGlobals, 3 ETH devCons, 2 Ethereals, EthCC, EDCON, and more).
  • Moderate one of the crypto-hoops meetup telegram channels.
  • Other favorite ETH projects include Flying Carpet, FOAM, and Augur.
  • https://twitter.com/anapheys

Hello MetaCartel Team, and Happy Holidays. My name is Adam Blumberg, and I am in Houston, TX, USA. Iā€™m looking forward to this process. Iā€™m actually a financial advisor, and have gone down the Blockchain rabbit hole.

  • What have you worked on / how have you contributed to the Web 3.0 ecosystem?

I started the YouTube Channel and website for Interaxis - www.youtube.com/c/interaxis. Our goal has been to educate more people about cryptocurrency, blockchain, and DeFi. We take the perspective of the financial advisor, explaining complex topics in a way that makes sense to the average personā€¦taking out most of the overly technical explanation.

I have spoken at several conferences, and have plans for many more. Topics have included: Adoption of Smart Contracts in Oil and Gas, The State of DeFi, and DeFi adoption.

We plan to create more courses to get retail users from zero to using DeFi, with the ultimate goal of helping the unbanked and underbanked, and develop more users, liquidity, and security in the ecosystem.

We also plan to create custom education and courses for banks, investment companies, etc. to educate their employees and customers, and custom projects for other companies that might want to adopt Blockchain and DeFi as part of their business.

I am also a partner in a DeFi application that is at MVP stage - currence.io. The goal is to build an app that makes the reporting and analysis of DeFi holdings, protocols, etc. more akin to the UI of a bank or investment reporting app.

  • Why do you want to join MetaCartel DAO?

I want to join MetaCartel for several reasons.

  1. I want to contribute based on my experience and expertise. I donā€™t have the coding or programming experience, but I understand retail users and finance.

  2. I want to be able to work with the incredibly smart, forward-thinking, people that are building the ecosystem. I get so excited at the potential of DLT and DeFi, and relish the opportunity to discuss the ways we can positively change the world.

  3. I like hearing about the latest developments from around the world, and would love to contribute to their growth.

  • What is your pledge size? (min 10 ETH for individuals, min 50 ETH for organizations & max 100 ETH for all membership types)

10 ETH

  • What else should we know about you?
    Iā€™m a pretty good writer and speaker (used to be a stand-up comic), and very good at explaining complex concepts in a way people understand. Iā€™ve been doing that for over 10 years in the traditional finance world.

  • You will need to pledge in WETH/Wrapped ETH - you can go get it off uniswap.io

1. What have you worked on / how have you contributed to the Web 3.0 ecosystem?

Long time crypto guy - currently working on making crypto data accessible to more people, on either side of the hacker spectrum - new crypto companies, startups, researchers on one end, as well as traditional companies who want to enter the space on the other.

Worked with exchanges as the primary blockchain developer across most of the top 50 chains.

2. Why do you want to join MetaCartel DAO?

Got tuned into MetaCartel by James Waugh when I met him in Christchurch, he made a very compelling pitch on the benefits of a collective effort for pushing the space forward. Very sure I can contribute with more than just ETH, and use my experience and skills to help other initiatives in the space

3. What is your pledge size? (min 10 ETH for individuals, min 50 ETH for organizations & max 100 ETH for all membership types)

10 ETH

4. What else should we know about you?

  1. Iā€™m one of the few (literally a handful) of crypto focused people based out of New Zealand.
  2. I frequently move around NZ, AU, Asia, and have the time to meet with people in the space
  3. My focus for the next few years is on bridging the gap between already functioning blockchain networks, and making them accessible to people who donā€™t know what blockchain is - most people in the world canā€™t figure out how to convert ETH to WETH, but can figure out how to spend physical cash and get an equivalent gift card, casino chips, or whatever in exchange - we need to make crypto easier to use.

Hello MetaCartel! Iā€™m excited to propose my membership here and look forward to meeting everyone.

  1. What have you worked on / how have you contributed to the Web 3.0 ecosystem?
    Iā€™m currently working on Machi X, a platform for tokenizing and trading music copyrights. So far we have tokenized 59 songs from Golden Melody Award winners (Asian equivalent of the GRAMMYs in the US), and have successfully distributed royalties in the form of ERC20 USDT tokens. Weā€™re now working toward opening up the ecosystem so that more of the music industry globally can be involved in modernizing the music industry.

  2. Why do you want to join MetaCartel DAO?
    Iā€™ve always found DAOs super interesting since learning about The DAO and Aragon. Subsequently I learned about the other DAOs that allowed projects to fund needed initiatives such as the DASH DAO and the Decred Politeia proposal system. Iā€™m now researching DAOs to better understand how to setup a DAO for our own project at Machi X. By joining MetaCartel DAO, I hope to learn more about how to better run my own DAO as well as improve the dapp ecosystem.

  3. What is your pledge size?
    10 WETH

Hey MetaCartel!
Iā€™ve waited too long to join my decentralized friends in this community. My old Telegram is already a part of the chat.

  1. I mainly work on cryptoeconomics, staking, and defi research, and have of late been working on personal tokens, including my own $CALVIN (https://uniswap.exchange/swap?outputCurrency=0xdc8092aaf83e00ebf9b01a2e90b7b7ef867ba503)

  2. Why do you want to join MetaCartel DAO?
    I was reminded to join metacartel after seeing how MetaCartel was pwning the CLR for gitcoin :slight_smile:
    Originally lost to a bunch of metacartel folks while playing cheeze wizards.
    I actually previous participated in the Telegram chat to compile a list of all the hack submissions from ETHdenver. Unfortunately I lost access to my Telegram so thought itā€™d be a good time to officially pledge.

I want to join MetaCartel DAO to bring new ideas to the table, question everything, and break some things in the process of making crypto better. To quote Peter, I want to move fast together.

  1. What is your pledge size?
    10 WETH

What have you worked on / how have you contributed to the Web 3.0 ecosystem?

I contributed to DAOs and projects revolving around decentralization since 2015 (Backfeed, freeftopia, Part-up, CollectiveOne, Tribute, Genesis DAO, DAOincubator, DGov, Berty, OrgTechā€¦). I spread the word about decentralized coordination as much as I can, via blog posts in French and English, my newsletter, and events (I co-organized the Paris P2P Festival and the DAO session of EthCC French track). Iā€™m at the board of Ethereum France.

Why do you want to join MetaCartel DAO?

TBH Iā€™m pissed off to have repeatedly missed the opportunity to join earlier :flushed:ā€¦ MetaCartel is just doing things faster than anyone else! Iā€™d just love to experience the team momentum from inside, and learn and contribute as much as I can.

What is your pledge size?

10 ETH

What else should we know about you?

I still donā€™t know why Iā€™m such a big fan of DAOs, since I keep finding evidences that they donā€™t work as well as traditional forms of social, political and economic coordination. I guess that I have some faith in me that makes me believe that beyond the obvious flaws, thereā€™s something there that feels just right and powerful :zap::zap::zap:

Synergy, Bitches - Russ Hanneman (2015)

Decentralized apps (especially those based on open liquidity pools) benefit from working together and Metacartel is pushing experimentation in this area. I see myself working on these problems for a long time and want to be aligned with like minded folks.
