Since then I have been actively involved in dozens of conversations with leading delegates and working groups about treasury diversification, on-chain liquidity acquisition, sustainable emissions, etc.\n\nI have grown very fond of the Arbitrum community and ecosystem and am extremely appreciative of this opportunity to potentially be recognized for the hundreds of uncompensated hours I have dedicated thus far.", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectGithub": "Taylor-Pedde", "projectTwitter": "TaylorJPedde"}, "recipient": "0xB729736937dca56A26a410e6Dc97B5a74e650a1A"}}
