-
Launch of Polygon DAO in 2021
-
Launch of Polygon Village and voucher program
The above two have been the key highlights from the perspective of the work which is relevant to the STBP Council. Apart from that, I’ve been a key part in the early DAO days to setup the grant and voucher systems as well as disbursing grants. Rest I’ve been a part of wider web3 ecosystem from over 5 years helping hundreds of startups with the GTM, fund raise and getting things in place for them to launch. I’ve also been an investor in 4 Web3 companies.
Pitch Summary: Through my extensive experience in finance and Web3, derivatives as a platform is something I’ve deep expertise in. I’ve also helped similar protocols like SynFutures and Gains and hence this is something I have a good understanding.
Detailed Pitch: I’ve been into this space for over 5 years, I’ve taught over 20K people DeFi which includes dydx as one of the platfroms. blockchainbyte (dot) in is the name of the website in case you want to check it.
I’ve also a financial background and also a trader in perps so understand the space deeply. Being in the council, will enable me to have a deep understanding of the product and provide my insights on the applications. This helps me with traders and tooling aspect. I’ve also been involved in grants program of 0x as well as Polygon and have led the strategic development of the program to evolve to a space where it currently is. So I’ve good experience with the overall governance and community. My learnings could greatly benefit the overall program.
The time requirement is also something which can be easily completed by me by sparing 10-20 hours per week on average and go beyond whenever needed.
