MEET GIDDY UP: A NOVEL FUNDING SOLUTION FOR CRYPTO PROJECTS
Our approach to funding is unique in the crypto space. It is a huge regulatory burden to do it properly, and we are confident we have found the right approach that works within the regulatory framework available today.
There are a LOT of jokers in the crypto world and a big part of our job is figuring out who is for real, who is clearly a scammer and who has big potential.
For what it’s worth, the hard work is in identifying the projects that have big potential--we are pretty good at identifying scammers at this point. HOWEVER, if you know how things went with FTX and LUNA, you will understand that some scammers are very sophisticated and hard to identify. More on that later.
ABOUT YOU
Note: If you are missing some of these qualifications, BUT you can make a good case for your ability to do the job, go ahead and apply. We are reasonable people.
Requirements
3+ years of documented software development experience, preferably working with cryptocurrencies, blockchain or web3 as a developer.
Experience with Solidity and other web3 related technologies.
Knowledge and experience working with ETH in its various iterations over the past few years in a professional capacity.
Strong communication skills--both written and spoken.
Knowledge of EVM networks.
You are always on the lookout for new and innovative ways to solve complex problems through rigorous experimentation.
Your English language skills must be good enough for a professional setting. (It’s okay if you aren’t perfect here.)
Experience working with a 100% remote team across multiple time zones with limited supervision (read: you don’t need any hand holding in order to know what work needs to be done).
A happy and positive demeanor.
Preferred qualifications
You have done previous work at a Layer 1 or Layer 2 blockchain.
A college degree in computer science or a related technical area of study.
Your GitHub is up-to-date and well-populated with your contributions.
You have links to share that showcase your previous projects.
Compensation
Salary
Equity
Token allocation (in the future)
Bragging rights for working on a cool project
ABOUT US
Who are we? A small handful of degens who are working hard to help onboard the next 100 million crypto users.
What do we do? We are a crowdfunding solution of sorts for crypto projects. If you believe this would be a difficult thing to do while staying compliant with the current laws and regulations, you would be correct! We are not afraid of hard problems.
Why are we doing this? Because it is more fun and pays better than a fast-food job.
To show that you read the entire job description, please include “web3 should not be capitalized” somewhere in your application. However, we have no official company opinion on whether or not the w should be capitalized. We see both options used all the time and nobody seems too concerned about it.
This job is fully remote.
What is the meaning of Layer 2?
Layer 2 in the context of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology refers to a secondary framework or protocol that is built on top of an existing blockchain system (the main chain or Layer 1)
The primary purpose of Layer 2 solutions is to solve the scalability and speed issues that many blockchains face, especially those that have become popular and heavily used, like Ethereum
Here are the key aspects of Layer 2 solutions:
- Scalability Enhancement: They help in scaling the main blockchain by handling transactions off the main chain. This reduces the burden on the main chain, allowing for faster and cheaper transactions.
- Types of Layer 2 Solutions: There are various forms of Layer 2 solutions, including state channels, sidechains, plasma chains, and rollups. Each has its own mechanism for interacting with the main chain and handling transactions.
- State Channels: These involve two parties engaging in numerous transactions outside of the main chain, which are then consolidated into a single transaction. This is especially useful for situations where multiple transactions occur between the same parties.
- Sidechains: These are separate blockchains that are connected to the main chain via a two-way peg. They operate independently and can have their own consensus mechanisms but are secured by the main chain.
- Plasma Chains: Plasma chains are similar to sidechains but with a more hierarchical structure. They report back to the main chain regularly and are optimized for mass transaction handling.
- Rollups: Rollups process and store transaction data on a sidechain but post transaction data to the main chain. They come in two varieties: optimistic rollups and zk-rollups, each with its own method of transaction verification.
- Security Considerations: While Layer 2 solutions are generally secure, they can have different security models compared to the main chain. This is an important consideration for users and developers.
- Impact on User Experience: For end-users, Layer 2 solutions can greatly improve the experience by reducing transaction fees and increasing transaction speeds.
- Adoption and Development: Many blockchain projects are actively developing Layer 2 solutions to enhance their networks. This is an ongoing area of innovation in the blockchain space.
