Some news: I recently left
@Scroll_ZKP
I joined the team when Scroll was just getting ready to launch the first version of its testnet & start tackling adoption. Nobody had ever launched a zkEVM L2 at that time. I came onboard as BD Lead to build the team from the ground up
There has been something in the works 👻🌀
Tinlake was always intended to be as composable as possible. We’ve just published our ARC to add RWA support on
@AaveAave
People complain about Ethereum UX being bad but have you tried using the Polkadot ecosystem? UX is so bad that even if someone finds your seed phrase they won’t be able to use it
Decentralized on-chain governance at its finest. That was an incredible race until the very last minute. Really amazing to see the
@centrifuge
community to rally behind our
#Kusama

@altair_network
& got us the win. Cheers to chaos🥃
Did my first talk at
@EthCC
☺️ gave a little recap on what kicked off the zkevm hype last year, why this is exciting & what else there is to work on. Lots to do 👩💻✨
As for me, it's time to turn the page. I'll remain close to Scroll & the ecosystem ofc. Big thanks for the trust & support

I'm working on sth in stealth & always curious to learn. If you need help building a successful launch dm me!
It’s been a minute …. but I’m happy to finally share that I joined
@Scroll_ZKP
as Partnerships Lead. After working on DeFi/Dapp level for the past years I’m super excited to dig into rollup & ZK infrastructure.
Almost 2 years ago I joined
@centrifuge
- then a team of 6 👨👩👧👦That was before
#DeFi
was even a term. A lot happened since then and a lot is happening today: we're officially launching our Decentralized Asset Financing Protocol. Excited for what's to come!
Today, Centrifuge 🌀 unlocks trillions of real-world value in DeFi with our Decentralized Asset Financing Protocol.
We will bring the
#DeFi
and
#Fintech
world closer together and open access to capital around the world 🌎🌍🌏
Last year’s biggest downfalls came from closed source, centralized projects. We’re making progress at holding the ecosystem to a better standard but there’s still more we can do.
@yezhang1998
wrote a piece on how
@Scroll_ZKP
is building:
Note that “community-driven development” means much more than just being open-source. It does not mean building in private and then suddenly open-sourcing all the code one day.
Babe wake up it's 2019 all over again:
"The Maker Foundation applied to trademark 'DeFi' with the goal of making it freely available for the whole community to use while also protecting the trademark from being captured by bad actors."
I led the team through testnet & mainnet launches, formed key partnerships & laid the foundation of the ecosystem you see today.
I'm very proud of what we achieved as a team! Now Scroll has become one of the fastest growing L2s & leading the way in scaling Ethereum
We're looking for a Strategic Partnerships Manager to join our team at
@Scroll_ZKP
👀
Details on the role below 👇
(btw this was the first thing I saw when I joined the Scroll slack - so if you're a cat lover Scroll will be your happy place)
L2 wars aside - there’s so much to learn from each other. No team has it *really* figured out 100%.
There are different approaches to building a zk(E)VM and this diversity is good. If a team trips we learn, if a team is successful Ethereum wins.

When building
@Scroll_ZKP
, number one priority is and always has been developer experience. Bytecode compatibility is one thing but we also wanted to ensure that dev experience doesn’t fall apart during deployment.
Last year’s
@EthCC
pretty much kicked off the whole L2 wars / zkEVM race towards mainnet. I’ll recap what happened since then. This will be a service talk for everyone who got lost along the way 🫡

So much good content focused on improving both the base and application layer. If you didn’t have the chance to attend check out the recordings. It’ll be worth it 🫶

Excited for

to go live! It enables smart contracts to access and compute on-chain data trustlessly, unlocking all kinds of new use cases that require comprehensive historical on-chain data ranging from reputation, to settlement or governance. Looking forward to those!
We're excited to announce the Axiom mainnet alpha release:
Axiom is the first ZK coprocessor scaling data-rich applications on Ethereum. Try on mainnet today.

2023 was the year of developer onboarding and community building 📜
As we open the door to 2024, we want to take a moment to reflect on some of our greatest achievements at

For nearly two years, we've built our zkEVM in the open alongside
@PrivacyScaling
and other contributors, and today, we're taking the next step to Goerli, the final stage before mainnet.
Our testnet on Goerli is 100% permissionless.
