Feist, who is one of the Ethereum Foundation’s key researchers, said that Tempo and Ethereum share similar values and “complement” each other.
Dankrad Feist, a longtime Ethereum developer and researcher at the Ethereum Foundation, announced Friday that he’s joining Tempo, a layer-1 blockchain for payments and stablecoins built by Stripe and Paradigm.
Feist said he will remain as a “research adviser” at the Ethereum Foundation to provide input on scaling the layer-1 network, improving user experience (UX), and blobs, a feature of the Ethereum network that frees up blockspace by temporarily storing data. He added:
I am looking forward to staying involved with the community and continuing to push Ethereum forward,” he said. Cointelegraph reached out to Feist but was unable to receive a response by the time of publication.
