Some news: I’m coming in as the new CEO of Stacks Labs.

- I co-founded Stacks in 2017; we’ve been live for 5+ years and have gone through various chapters of decentralization.

- I’m more bullish on $STX than ever before. After the successful launch of Bitcoin staking, it’s time to double down on the growth of Bitcoin capital markets.

- After ecosystem restructuring last year, Stacks Labs has emerged as the operational hub. Taking on a day-to-day operational role there lets me put rocket fuel on the institutional BD work I was already doing.

- Stacks is pushing the frontier of Bitcoin. The tech is stellar. More BTC capital flows and widespread marketing of Stacks are what’s needed now. That’ll be my focus.

- @alexlmiller has done a tremendous job over the last year as interim CEO, put us on solid operational foundations, and pushed the core staking product live. Huge kudos to Alex for all his contributions!

- Satoshi upgrades 1 delivered self-custodial staking. We’re working on other frontier Bitcoin challenges like 100x capacity, institutional-grade privacy, and post-quantum. I look forward to working with our fearless CTO, @AdrianoDiLuzio, and the rockstar team on this exciting roadmap.

Start of a new chapter for Stacks and me. It’s time to light up some fires and push the frontier of Bitcoin. Forward!
