Expanding the Kin Representatives

The Kin Foundation Announces the Appointment of the Second Kin Representative

July 31 2020 -

In April we announced the Kin Representatives, the next step in Kin Foundation governance, as well as the appointment of Matt Hannam as the first Kin Representative. Kin Representatives attend monthly board meetings and advise the Kin Foundation Board on pertinent topics, informing their votes as the Kin Foundation acts on its mandate to grow the reach and impact of the Kin Ecosystem.

Today we are announcing the appointment of the second Kin Representative — Will Gikandi, also known in the community as u/kidwonder. Will is a long-time contributor that has made numerous contributions to Kin Improvement Proposal discussions, and is the founder and lead developer of projects such as the Kin Bubbles transaction visualizer, Catpurse, (which won “Community Favorite” in the Kin Unity Gaming Challenge), as well as the “Tipster” and “Kin Price” browser extensions.

Will brings a developer’s perspective to the table in advising the Board on the allocation of the Kin Reserves. We look forward to working with him to grow Kin and further decentralize Kin Foundation governance.
