My web3 qualifications / skills: Software developer of 10 years, community builder (Developer DAO, various meetups and code schools), web3 content creator (content reached over 1 million views)
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I will lead efforts in integrating ENS to all major mobile wallets as well as smart contract wallets in order to make ENS a standard for the multi-chain reality.
My web3 qualifications / skills: Iām leading the mobile team at Gnosis Safe and organizing Mobile Web3 group with mobile leaders of the industry. Also Iām a contributor and member of the WalletConnect foundation that provides a way for mobile wallets to connect to any dApp. Member of GnosisDAO and VitaDAO. I am a software engineer with 10 years of experience, team and tech leader passionate about web3.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: In 2005-2010, I was involved in many of the conversations that became what web2 is today. We knew the problems that could happen from the decisions that were made back then but we had no power over those decisions. Today, we have the opportunity to build an open internet for all that is also governed by the people who use it.

My web3 qualifications / skills: In 2011, Adam Draper told me to buy Bitcoin and hold it for a decade. He then called me in 2015 and said Ethereum would be as important if not more important. He helped me get into the space, play the long game, and learn about everything early. Today, Iām the co-founder of a web3 company, XMTP, and looking to help shape the future of the web3 world.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I joined the cryptoverse in 2017 looking to contribute to something I considered exciting and bleeding edge technology. After treating the cryptoverse as a side project for several years Iāve finally immersed myself in the web3 ecosystem.
The current leadership of ENS team is demonstrating a sophisticated and mature approach that I canāt fault and Iād love to be able to contribute to the success of ENS.
Iād love to see a world where one day ENS becomes 3NS as it evolves from being the Ethereum Name Services into the Web3 Name Service. A cross chain, decentralised, naming solution to unite the cryptoverse. Working in this space is so incredibly exciting.
My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution:
Name ownership is an absolute right: Agree
Registration fees exist as an incentive mechanism: Agree
Income funds ENS and other public goods: Strongly agree. Even if the operation of ENS becomes more profitable all the funds must be transparently used for other public goods with appropriate on-chain votes.
ENS Integrates with the global namespace: Very strongly agree and want to see ENS support all blockchains as well as the existing web2 world.
My web3 qualifications / skills:
10 years as a software engineer
5 years in crypto
3 years in leadership roles
Executive at cryptocurrency exchange
Active across a variety of web3 communities
User of multiple DeFi protocols
Passionate believer that web3/DLTs/DAOs and related technologies are changing the world in a myriad of ways. I couldnāt be working in any other sector.
I run an Ethereum validator and I make my configuration available for others to use or benefit from
Iāve written code for Ethereum 2.0 as well as contributing to Cardano a while back.
I will never stop learning about and contributing to the web3 world
To everyone that chooses to delegate to me - thank you so much. Your delegation/support is an honour and not something I take lightly. I will do my very best to represent you and help ENS thrive.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:
We believe that ENS is an important utility in Web3. How it is governed will have significant repercussions for the ecosystem. We want to participate in delegation in order to ensure that the governance of ENS is informed by best practices, and to bring reflexivity and reflection to the ongoing task of governing.
Metagov (aka the Metagovernance Project) was founded to understand and improve the governance of online communities across Web2 and Web3. We know what works from other projects and systems and will endeavour to communicate learnings derived from ENS governance for the benefit of others.
Name ownership shall not be infringed: Agree (with comments)
This is a complicated issue. The .eth registrar contract is locked, though in practice there are ways for ENS team and keyholders to target a subset of addresses in order to āinfringeā on name ownership. But does ānon-infringementā mean that we can do nothing if someone manages to hack a substantial number of .eth names, such that the utility of the entire system suffers? Does it mean we have to guarantee the same prices for different TLDs, or the same governance? What if a child pornographer starts taking payments out of kidporn.eth? We believe that non-infringement is an important constitutional value to a decentralized service such as ENS. However, we believe that as a matter of practical policy, the community and DAO should recognize that (1) infringement is possible, (2) nothing in the real world is absolute, and (3) find ways to safeguard and check the use of this policy tool instead of saying ācode is lawā and ducking the issue.
Fees are primarily an incentive mechanism: Agree
Fees for registration and re-registration are a reasonable solution and a tested business model for a service such as ENS. The economic trajectory of decentralised blockchain infrastructures has demonstrated that the ability to extract and accrue fees can also be a signal of a projectās use if not resilience. There are complex reasons for this, including treasuries being the āunforkableā component, an indicator of market share or future potential (possessing resources for ongoing development). These factors may influence the value of a token and present challenges for governance.
Income funds ENS and other public goods: Agree
ENS Integrates with the global namespace: Agree
DNS is a useful internet-wide utility, and Ethereum is part of the internet. ENS should integrate with DNS to the degree it can remain decentralized.
My web3 qualifications / skills:
We are leading researchers, academics, and founders in crypto. Metagov itself is a public charity dedicated to self-governance within online communities. Metagov.eth and the Metagov DAO are controlled by Joshua Tan, Ellie Rennie, Michael Zargham, Kelsie Nabbens, and Nathan Schneider.
ENS name: chackochan.eth My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I am a Mechanical Engineering student from India , but am really motivated for the Web3 and Blockchain powered Internet. ENS plays a major role in naming and creating a name/face value for a person to be recognized in this decentralized world. It would be a total pleasure to work as a delegate for this.

With my ongoing journey in Solidity, I think I would be a valuable asset to the DAO
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: The Blockchain Education Network (BEN) is the largest and longest running network of students, alumni, professors, teachers, professionals, and community leaders excited about blockchain across the world. We are on a journey to spur blockchain adoption by empowering our leaders to bring blockchain to their companies and communities.

Assisted multiple collegiate clubs gain voting power to their respective organization in an effort to scale governance practices in correspondence with the BEN Meta-Delegate.
Provide BEN members with the opportunity to attend conferences & meetups, and obtain job matches & internships
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: Iāve been in the blockchain space since 2016 and followed ENS from its inception. I think ENS is one of the applications in the Ethereum space that make Ethereum really worthwhile. The project is especially important to eliminate one of the most complicated things when introducing new people to Ethereum: Using an address is really error-prone and not easily explained to new users. With ENS we finally have the possibility to use addresses as the thing they are: machine-readable identifiers; for humans we can now use the much better human-readable ENS names.
I want to be a delegate for the ENS DAO because I think the main problem with Ethereum at the moment is that it is too hard to understand for non-crypto-savy users. ENS has taken the first step to make it easier, and I think it can go a lot further. Recent developments (like the NFT as avatar) have shown that the ENS team is putting users first ā I want to help govern the DAO to stay focused on that mission: Make Ethereum usable by everybody.
Name ownership shall not be infringed: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) Name ownership is the core value proposition of ENS. To keep true to its decentralized vision, name ownership must not be infringed.
Fees are primarily an incentive mechanism: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) ENS core value proposition is to build a decentralized naming system. Registration fees serve a dual purpose: Keep mass-registrations at bay and keep the system maintanable. With the procceeds, ENS is probably one of the first self-sustained projects in the space. To maintain the decentralized nature of ENS it is important for the DAO to stay self-sustained as to minimize external pressure.
Income funds ENS and other public goods: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) To keep a self-sustained operation is one of the main prerequisites to run a truely decentralized system. Therefore, putting ENS development/maintenance as first goal is very reasonable. Any funds that are not neccessary for that operation can be used for public good funding. This second part is somewhat ambigous and open for interpretation. While I agree with its core idea, I believe a clearer set of rules will be neccessary to determine, which funds are not āreasonably required to achieve this goalā
ENS Integrates with the global namespace: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) Probably the one proposition that I most strongly agree with. ENS will be most valuable when integrated with the current DNS. Putting the decentralized nature of ENS in here is good, as that should never be jeoparized.
My web3 qualifications / skills: Iāve been developing smart contract in Solidity for quite a while. One of my earliest contributions was a JSON parser for solidity. Lately I have been mostly active in the NFT space working on ERC721 or ERC1155 tokens for various projects.

My web3 qualifications / skills: Aside from being an investor, I have been in the blockchain space since 2017, and I currently hire for one of the largest ethereum blockchain software companies. I believe experience, current position, analytical nature and transparent/blunt personality will allow me to become a qualified delegate.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: To help support the community and drive ENS forward. Iāve been an ENS user from very early on and realized from onset how important it would be to web3; I look forward to helping ENS moving forward into the DAO-era.
Registration fees exist as an incentive mechanism: Agree, but more like a disincentive to prevent users from simply sitting on names without using them.
Income funds ENS and other public goods: Agree
ENS Integrates with the global namespace: Agree
My web3 qualifications / skills: Committed cryptocurrency researcher and long time ens holder. I community moderate several large scale project so know ins and out of most things from marketing to main crypto goals. This makes me a good choice to become a delagate.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:
I believe I live at a special intersection of design, fashion, art, music and tech, which is a place ENS already exists and can continue expanding. I have a community on Instagram and my followers have seen me as a teacher to all web3 things. So I can give a proper representation of a ānormieā ready to dive into the future, and continue to onboard more and more.
My web3 qualifications / skills: ive been all in on the space since end of 2019, coming from being the top shopify expert in Brooklyn, NY, running both a (foda.farm) front-end dev studio and now one of the biggest upcoming clothing brands in the world called (KidSuper) (kidsuper.eth), KidSuper also have made digital-physical NFTs now seen on Offset from Migos haha. I am currently building dApps in the space and especially interested in digital identity and things ENS is doing with Spruce ID and how I can mesh Shopify Brands with web3. As a $LINK marine im also very excited for CCIP and what it means for cross-chain identity. I am also a clothing designer and work/collaborate on album arts and websites for some of the biggest music artists in the world.

born two months ago with the aim to be a delegate dao operating in all the Ethereum ecosystem
very likely the first cross dao delegation_dao
if anyone is interested in joining the cyphers_dao, in order to offer the service to ens_dao or to any other dao you care of, just drop a line
the importance of delegating to a dao instead of an individual is obvious:
1 - bribing an individual is easier tha bribing a dao
2 - if you delegate to an individual he may have sudden problems to reach the voting session, if you delegate to a dao there is more people able to complete the task
3 - a group of people is usually more prepared than an individual
CypherParty will have sub delegations for each dao in the ethereum ecosystem
We are on the move to prepare our staking system (based on ethereansOS protocol)
We plan to become the biggest delegation_party (as opposed to political parties) of history! join this crazy experiment!
Cyphers
VOTE FOR CYPHERPARTY letās fork the world and build a better one !

cypherparty was born for promoting public goods for the ethereum ecosystem.
In december we will start a serie of hackathons for the creation of public goods.
The two main proposals we will constantly push to ens community and work for are: 1) constant public goods hacks (on a monthly base) 2) free physical places for ethereans (covid remergency underlined the importance of being together): in few words an ens_castle (each big community should have its institutional place. the ens_castle will be some medieval castle in europe, working as a social/tech incubator, were you can temporary retire - at zero sleeping cost - and build along with other people) for $ENS owners ruled as a dao by the community. (more info coming soon) (modificato)

All orientations must be discussed by the cypherparty as a group
I would like to help everyone learn about the exciting new developments of ENS. I believe the integration of ENS is a great way for simplicity, anonymity and an exciting way to welcome new people into the space.
I have been lucky enough to be involved in the crypto community since 2012. Some of my experiences include community building, scaling a business, and E-commerce. I totally believe my generation holds the key to the future. In the future we need Web3 and decentralization. The growth of crypto space is a true passion of mine and I would love to be a driving and adaptive force in this community.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I believe I have always been able to listen and absorb new trends and technology. It would be amazing to be apart ENS as I believe it will be the future of all on Web3.

My web3 qualifications / skills: As a content creator, as well as a social media manager. I have an understanding of what the future of Web3 can and will become.
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I see the potential in ENS and what it could mean for the whole ecosystem and want to contribute to shaping what it becomes in the future. In addition, as part of a few DAOs and communities from projects already, I would like to leverage the voice of those projects and hopefully provide thoughtful and experienced options from UMA, Harvest, YEL, and others to shape how ENS works moving forward.
