Delegate Statement

We are Metallicus, bridging the gap between traditional finance and blockchain technology. Currently a FedNow® Certified Service Provider for real-time payments, we recently acquired CULedger (dba Bonifii)—expanding our reach to over 80 credit unions—and serve as core developers for Metal L2, Metal Blockchain, and XPR Network. By creating regulated, user-friendly platforms, we aim to make blockchain solutions more accessible to financial institutions and everyday users.

Our mission is to support innovations that promote open access, transparency, and responsible financial services across the DeFi ecosystem. With regulated financial expertise and real-world partnerships, we bring a unique perspective on bridging TradFi and DeFi, ensuring that governance decisions support crypto natives and mainstream adopters alike. As delegates, we seek to encourage well-governed, collaborative development that welcomes a broader user base into Optimism, helping to build a more inclusive and sustainable ecosystem.

On public goods, I believe robust investment in open-source tools, community initiatives, and cross-chain functionality drives network effects.
