Soona Lisa — soonalisa
In the OmiseGO (OMG) community, soonalisa is the nickname that is used to address Jun Hasegawa, CEO and co-founder of Omise and OmiseGO.
Jun is no stranger to the startup world. He’s a deep thinker and entrepreneur who has involved in founding LIFEmee and has come to establish Omise, a Thailand-based payment gateway in late 2014. Besides holding a dynamic professional background, he brings over 16 years of experience in web & product design, proficiency in marketing, and great appreciation of what it takes to truly make the payment industry in Thailand continue on a path of progress. With a remarkable vision, he looks to expand Omise beyond its existing borders to countries across Asia Pacific.
OmiseGO is a billion-dollar blockchain network that works on top of the Ethereum protocol and that aims to scale Ethereum to mainstream audience. Jun foresees massive scaling and adoption of Ethereum by 2020, as he outlined the future of Ethereum and the roadmap of OmiseGO. Both Ethereum and OmiseGO and their respective founders Vitalik and Jun have been working together and they share a wonderful relationship for many years. Jun has first-hand insights on not only the way things are progressing in the crypto industry but also but also on how Vitalik plans the future of Ethereum.
Jun Hasegawa has made some notable statements in the past that didn’t go unnoticed by the community. Some of them were the trigger to give Jun the nickname Soona Lisa:

In response to the Coindesk publication error concerning an OMG scam action
As a community, we will make mistakes as we endeavor to build something that is bigger and better and less fallible than our small selves. One of the most important things we must do if we are to succeed together is to own up to our mistakes and learn from them.

Now, even if you have crypto maybe what you do is hodl or just speculate. Once you have access to staking pools, the way you make decisions about token assets is going to be totally different.

PoS validation should give anyone fair opportunity to participate as validator. Small machines or eventually even mobile apps should be able to do staking.

OmiseGO: Bridging the Gap between Vitalik’s Mind and Your Grandma.
Twitter — June 11, 2018
Thinking deeply regarding the terms and definition of “ Decentralization ”. Easy part is “breaking / splitting” centralized governance / systems that transform to govern by crowd of this network, protocol participants (who has access). But….
Objective is not breaking or splitting. Objective is connecting dots (who doesn’t have access to existing ecosystem ) in permissionless / secure way. Especially OmiseGO case we want to connecting Unbanked “Peoples” by utilizing phenomenal scaling solution.
