Ep 30 - Kevin Owocki - Building a Sustainable and Decentralized Open-Source Ecosystem

Sharing Secrets - Presented by Secret Network

Hosted by Enigma's Head of Growth Tor Bair, our thirtieth episode features Kevin Owocki. Kevin is the founder and self-described chief janitor of Gitcoin, a blockchain-based incentivization layer for open-source software. Gitcoin helps connect developers eager to contribute to open source projects with projects offering bounties for development work. Kevin himself is an experienced developer and passionate about strengthening the foundations and expanding the impact of open-source software. On this episode Kevin talks with Tor about the beginnings and future of Gitcoin, what sustainability means for open source and blockchain, and how to design for humans in a space that often abstracts them away. Enigma's podcast "Decentralize This!" features guests from all over the decentralization space: developers, investors, entrepreneurs, researchers, writers, artists, people in government and enterprise - all individuals who care deeply about building a more decentralized and sustainable world. How can all these people with different perspectives collaborate to create and scale the technologies we need to shape a better future? ---- Relevant links: Kevin’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/owocki Gitcoin: https://www.gitcoin.co Enigma: www.enigma.co Enigma Blog: blog.enigma.co Enigma Twitter: www.twitter.com/enigmampc
