Daniel Robinson is Coder and lawyer. Research at Paradigm. In addition to helping Matt, Fred, and Charlie think about investments, an explicit part of my role will be contributing to research and development on open-source protocols and projects. I’m looking forward to continuing to work on Bitcoin, Ethereum, Plasma, Interledger, Ivy, and Stellar, as well as getting to explore other areas more deeply, including decentralized finance, proof-of-stake consensus, and zero-knowledge proofs. I have been blessed to have worked with some extraordinary people at Chain and Interstellar over the past 2.5 years‪ and am beyond grateful for the opportunities Adam Ludwin and Jed McCaleb have given me to work on transformative and cutting-edge projects. Adam, and the company he built, changed my life, and taught me countless lessons that I hope to carry forward.
