"52 Pickup" - Where Are We Now: History and Transition in 2024 with Rowan and ZFi
Manage episode 442179589 series 3372461
BanklessDAO is undergoing both a name change and a redefinition of purpose. Helping frame and steward this set of challenges is a six member Transition Council formed earlier this year: Hiro Kennelly, Trewkat, WinVerse, Coffee Crusher, Rowan and ZFi.
This episode seeks to encapsulate both the origin story of our organization and get you up to speed on how the organization is changing.
To help me do that, I sat down with Rowan and ZFI, two of the six members of the transition council.
ZFi has been in the crypto space since 2013 and has been active in DAOs since November 2021, when he joined Bankless DAO. His innovative problem solving and leadership in Web3 is helping shape the future of decentralized governance and strategies.
Rowan first got into crypto in 2017 and is a BanklessDAO OG, though the first few months he was mostly lurking. He found his footing in DAO Operations with Sobol and mapping bDAO, after which he held a leadership role as the Coordinator of the Operations Department for several seasons. He’s passionate about decentralized governance and individual sovereignty.
