Protocol Engineer Jobs

About ABC Labs:

Reserve.org is a cryptocurrency project. We want money that doesn’t inflate like USD, but isn’t volatile like Bitcoin. We believe the global reserve currency should be an index of the world’s assets: stocks, bonds, gold, real estate, and more. That’s the ultimate purpose of the Reserve protocol, which lets anyone create a new currency backed 1:1 by a collection of tokenized assets.

ABC Labs contributes to the development of the Reserve protocol and helps to support and grow the Reserve ecosystem.
