Delegate Statement

ENS name: dhadrien.sismo.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

As the founder of Sismo, I will be a delegate that builds on ENS and brings additional value to the protocol.

Sismo builds up your Ethereum profile (ENS) with anonymised attestations created from your other accounts.

In the first release of our product, we will require users to possess an ENS name - if they don't have one, we will give them one for free. We are building an ens-centric product (and not an address-centric product)

We already launched the first ENS Subdomain DAO - In Sismo DAO, every member has a .sismo.eth subdomain.

  • We initially distributed 500 memberships (= 500 ENS subdomains distributed for free)
  • Find the v1 contract that we used to distribute those domains 0x4e4A5dB7dbf95C689c95382E2031561730F3b5D6.
  • We will deploy a better v2 version in the coming days.
  • We just open-sourced the suite of contracts (github[dot]com/sismo-core/ens-sdao) to allow other projects to do like us: create a Subdomain DAO (SDAO), distributing Subdomains for its members. We took inspiration from openzeppelin and built a set of modular extensions and presets so it can fit your project.
  • We held the first ENS election ever! We had snapshot votes (snapshot[dot]org/#/sismo.eth) where 1 subdomain = 1 vote.

On a personal note, I am a long-time supporter of ENS, and I have been periodically registering names for more than 4 years. I also participate regularly in "Sign-in With Ethereum" Community Calls.

I am convinced that ENS + Wallet is the beginning of the DID standard that everybody is waiting for. Observing artists and young generations get onboarded through NFTs, ENS, and sign-in with Ethereum on Opensea and other platforms has been a pivotal shift that convinced me to kickstart Sismo and work for the future of onchain profiles.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution

  • Name ownership shall not be infringed: Agree In my opinion, it is required, even though it is always a pain to see first movers getting unfair advantages. A bit like with theDAO fork that lead to Ethereum Classic vs Ethereum, I think it is ok to "punish" squatters that did not respect the initial intent of ENS by not airdropping them tokens or potentially removing ownership of some of their domains but this should never happen again.
  • Fees are primarily an incentive mechanism: Agree I think this is a great model, fees should be a registration control parameter first.
  • Income funds ENS and other public goods: - I think there is a lot to do for the adoption of Ethereum login and Ethereum profiles and also a lot to build to have better, more private ENS profiles. I would push to fund ENS-related projects.
  • ENS Integrates with the global namespace: Agree

My web3 qualifications/skills:

I have been coding smart contracts since 2015 (before frontier) I founded VariabL, a DeFi project in 2016 (RIP 2018) I worked as a smart contract dev for Aave (2020-2021). I was focused on Governance and protocol, published protocol changes to Aave smart contracts via onchain governance proposals. Founder at Sismo: ZK attestations on ENS profiles. For Sismo I did exhaustive research on all ENS contracts (especially the incoming release nameWrapper). I have also started to take a look at L2/multichain ENS strategies.

I will try my best to be worthy of your trust!
