## Who I am and what I do in the GWG

Hi, I’m Robert and I have been researching & developing governance solutions:

- authored the SBT based identity system, in the Decentralized Society spirit.
  - assembled a team with Noak during the NEAR hackathon to promote that solution.
  - proposed the [SBT token standard](https://github.com/near/NEPs/pull/393) and created Proof of Concept

- architect of the road to NDC v1 governance (and beyond, notably the [v2 Framework proposal](https://hackmd.io/@robert-zaremba/SJ3TM8hIo) - which is rather for the future).
- SBT Oracle research for identity providers.

Background: computer science, solution architecture, co-founder.

In the past: contributed to various smart contracts, co-authored the fungible token standard (NEP-141), hackathons, audits…  
More in the past: commodity trading (intelligence systems), proxy solutions for private banking.

On daily basis:

- Lead Engineer at Umee | Cosmos
- Professor at University of Lausanne
