Mo Jalil and Oskar Thorne bring extensive experience from traditional finance, hedge funds, and the Ethereum Foundation to ETH Systems. Jalil's background in algo trading and Thorne's work in privacy protocols and zero-knowledge proofs inform their approach to building institutional-grade privacy solutions.
“I actually started in traditional finance. I used to build algo trading systems like Goldman Sachs.”
“So I've been there sort of Ethereum and Cryptospace for around a decade or so. I focused a lot on privacy very early on.”
“And then I guess the last five, six years, I've been sort of diving deeper into Synology Proofs and sort of doing various tooling for it.”
