 - **Joby Reuben**: Joby is a the research lead. He is a dedicated researcher and has been delving deep in blockchains for over 2 years. He has profound understanding of Layer 1 protocols and is passionate to design Layer 1 consensus protocols. Currently he rewriting Ethereum yellow paper for developers as an open contribution. His elaborate research experience and realization of current shortcomings of blockchain has led to the idea of developing first developer incentivising consensus which we look forward to bring into reality.
