Key people at MetisDAO.
MetisDAO was founded in 2018 by Kevin Liu (Co-Founder & Product Lead) and Elena Sinelnikova (Co-Founder and CEO) and Yuan Su (Co-Founder, Technology).
MetisDAO provides an Ethereum Layer 2 Rollup platform, designed to scale the network by offering a permissionless and efficient environment for decentralized applications, businesses, and communities. The platform prioritizes low gas fees, rapid transaction finality, and affordable on-chain data storage, while maintaining a secure and decentralized infrastructure. This technical approach aims to alleviate the performance and cost constraints often associated with the main Ethereum blockchain.
The company was co-founded by Elena Sinelnikova, Kevin Liu, and Yuan Su in 2018. Their founding insight centered on the critical need for a more scalable and user-friendly solution to accelerate Web3 adoption, addressing Ethereum's limitations in throughput and transaction costs. The team aimed to build a robust layer-2 that simplifies development and empowers broader community participation within the decentralized ecosystem.
MetisDAO targets developers seeking a high-performance environment for deploying decentralized applications, as well as communities looking for transparent and effective governance models. Its overarching vision is to accelerate the transition to a more inclusive, accessible, and decentralized Web3 economy. The company fosters this through community-led governance, empowering users to actively shape the ecosystem's future.
