Arguably, there is no "founder." No idea or invention is new, it is logical and uses things that were already there in a new and creative way. Everything else is luck...
Austin Green: earned a degree in international political-economics from Columbia University. A graduate degree in banking/finance from N.Y.U. and a 2nd Masters degree in education. He has 10+ years’ experience in: algo trading; corporate (all sectors) and investment banking, underwriting/risk-policy with focus in global treasury and commercial payments. His last finance role was VP credit portfolio manager for a top-3-tier investment bank. He left banking for the same reasons that FATE was created and taught middle school math in the south Bronx, NY for 5+ years. He conceived the concept of FATExDAO in his senior thesis, 20-years ago & as a fellow with StartingBloc (MIT-Sloan CSR/ESG business fellowship) His time during the COVID-19 pandemic, and as a teacher in a “high-needs” neighborhood, gave him the experiences and the will needed to create the DAO and start building web3.0 products/services to actualize the potential of blockchain/tokenization/DeFi.
Ciantera has a degree in biology from Loyola-Marymount University. She graduated from a blockchain-coding-bootcamp and joined the DAO in May 2021, and has been a critically active supporter of its fruition. She has worked tirelessly to make FATExDAO possible. Like Corey, Adam, and all of the other supporters (advisors etc.), she understands that FATExDAO is an idea for the fate of humanity’s future that unites people to collectively support a for-profit-human-capital-innovations enterprise with ESG, diversity, minority rights, economic equality/inclusion ideology.
Corey & Adam - www.dolomite.io founders - are the dev-tech origins of FATExDAO. They are the first builders and will stay on as technical advisors for no less than a year. This ensures they're allowed to keep up their prior commitments and support as much as they can. FATExDAO owes them immense gratitude for their time and expertise. They will stay on to ensure the roadmap has the developmental support needed to complete the mission. The founders and all DAO “treasury” activities are transparent and supported by the strongest reasoning to justify them. Executives are simply trustees for the DAO and its members, and are accountable to them. They have a diverse background in blockchain software engineering, finance/banking, and education. The DAO was not formed for a few of its members to prosper more than any other. Value is distributed by the value input provided.
