Duncan first became interested in Ethereum due to the vision of a crypto-enabled high efficiency electric grid system in early 2017. He had the opportunity to join the ecosystem in 2018 as a first hire for the EF Grants program where he developed a broad knowledge for the state and nature of network development. Post EF Duncan became familiar with the many dgov and DAO initiatives across the ecosystem. In spring of 2019 he joined James Young and Eric Chung to build Abridged, a project focused on intuitive crypto application development. In Beyond Burner, Duncan dives into product development principles needed to make Web3 as usable as Web2. He highlights the success of Austin Griffith’s burner wallet in facilitating the largest ETH pop up economy to date. He links this method to the Impossible Burger narrative, where holistic meat alternatives have become as good or better than the real thing. The presentation moves on to express the challenges involved in crypto product development, and describes the primitives needed to overcome these issues. Come learn about where we are on the path toward intuitive login, account recovery, and seamless in-app experiences!
