A brief intro to yourself: I'm Tony Olendo, cofounder of ViFi Labs, a stablecoin FX protocol that democratizes FX price discovery and provides deep liquidity for retail and institutional customers across Africa and other frontier economies.

Prior to founding ViFi, I was the Lead DevRel Engineer at Polygon Labs where I helped launch the Polygon zkEVM. I have a DeFi engineering background and I continue to build at the intersection of Africa and Web3.

I have been vocal and active member of Developer DAO where I wrote the first ever DAO improvement proposal and continued to help shape the DAOs governance structures. Additionally, I built DAO tooling at Coordinape, where I worked with various DAOs in understanding the governance and treasury management needs.

A message to the community and ecosystem: I'd like to grow the Scroll ecosystem to continue to work with builders across emerging market ecosystems. For builders in Africa and beyond, the values of decentralization, permission-lessness and censorship-resistance are not merely ideals, they are life and death, given the nature of those governments. You should vote for me because I'm determined to ensure Scroll continues to uphold these values while prioritizing builders of all backgrounds through clear and representative governance.
