[TECH] #31 - Boost and bolster your web3 application knowledge - feat. Niklas Kunkel!

The impressively skilled, Niklas Kunkel, joins us to talk: oracles, DAI, and the latest works in progress!

Nik began his crypto journey at IBM Research where he worked on the Hyperledger blockchain and early supply chain finance applications. In 2017 he joined MakerDAO to create Dai, the first decentralized stablecoin on Ethereum. Nik is responsible for creating DSProxy. An industry-standard account abstraction primitive, OasisDEX, the first decentralized exchange on Ethereum with an order matching engine, as well as the Chronicle Oracle protocol, which secures over $10B of assets locked in MakerDAO.

James Zaki will facilitate further conversation with other web3 regulars, digging into the essentials of what makes web3 applications work for you.

Please RSVP to confirm your place. Attendees may arrive late, or leave early. The format is flexible.
And as always, you're welcome to byo questions :)
