ENS name: mihal.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

I’ve been a strong supporter of the Ethereum rollup space for years, collaborating in some form with the teams from Fuel, Arbitrum, Optimism and ZKSync. Bridges are a crucial piece of infrastructure for this rollup-centric future, and I believe Hop Protocol provides the most elegant bridge implementation that still maintains maximal decentralization.

My web3 qualifications / skills:

Full-stack web3 developer, experience with contract development (Solidity, Rust-based languages), front-end (React/JS), subgraph development, etc.

What voters can expect of me:

You can expect me to push Hop in the direction that supports a large and diverse Ethereum L2 ecosystem. I will use my position to push to for this ecosystem to be maximally decentralized and secure, inline with the Ethereum ethos.

Some specific goals I would like to push forward

• Allowing DAOs to easily deploy un-distributed assets into the bridge, providing a risk-minimized option for them to earn fees on their tokens.
• Extending the bridges to non-EVM L2s such as StarkNet, ZKSync, Fuel and Aztec
• Reduce gas fees using calldata optimization
