Candidates Full Name

Kyle Solomon

Are you currently part of the committee they are applying for?

No

Is there a particular role within the committee that you are interested in, if so which and why? (if applicable)

SME

What is your experiences within Intersect and Cardano?

I am a long-term Cardano stake pool operator (FROG) and have helped onboard dozens of stake pool operators. I minted Cardano's first meme coin (spacecoins), created Cardano's first native asset dispenser to subsidize staking rewards (Adosia), and co-founded Cardano's premium rewards layer (DripDropz).

I am currently working as a volunteer with Intersect by contributing subject matter expertise to assist the Open Source and Product committees. I actively contribute with SWOT analysis, deep utility analysis and roadmap goals. I hosted a Constitutional Workshop in Puerto Rico and will be attending the upcoming Cardano Constitutional Convention in Argentina as an alternate delegate.

What are your pledges and plans should you be elected?

I pledge to always put Cardano first, operate with integrity, and commit the appropriate time and energy demanded of the role.

Why should the community vote for you?

My primary goal for the Cardano ecosystem is to help the Cardano protocol achieve the economic viability (transaction volume) required for sustainability post-depletion of reward reserves. I have experience crafting successful product initiatives on Cardano.

Do you have any other Cardano affiliations or possible conflicts of interests, including you as an individual or an enterprise you are associated with?

I am the CEO of DripDropz. I also operate the FROG, FROG2 and WOLF stake pools and provide services to assist non-technical stake pool owners with pool operation.

Are you currently in receipt of or previously received any Intersect or Cardano funding or grant?

I received a grant to host a Constitutional Workshop in Luquillo, Puerto Rico which was held on August 30th, 2024.
