# Template Arbitrum Multi-sig Support Service (MSS) Application

## Prerequisite:

- I have read and oblige by the above prerequisite: **Yes**
- I choose to opt into MSS chair: **NO**

## Personal Information:

- **Full Name:** Griff Green
- **Applying as organization:** No
- **Contact Information (if applying as organization, please designate one point person):** N/A
- **Country of Residence / Time Zone:** Turkey / Erratic, but usually between the Americas and Middle East

## Professional Background:

- **Current Occupation:** Co-Founder of Giveth & General Magic

- **Relevant Work/Educational Experience (Please list any relevant experience in governance, DAOs, and multi-sig operations):**

From 2016-2018 I helped to lead the White Hat Group which rescued a lot of projects most notably The DAO and the FIRST parity Multisig hack where we rescued 200M+ from vulnerable multisigs, and returned it all in about a week.

I am also a top delegate in many DAOs, ENS, Optimism, Gitcoin, Open Dollar, and of course Arbitrum!

## Technical Skills:

- **List any technical skills that are relevant to multi-sig operation:**
- **Experience with EVM that makes you well suited for this program (SAFE, Using a module, etc):**

While not a developer, I am technical and feel comfortable reading solidity and deciphering bytecode when necessary. I am an engineer (Chemical) and am also one of the first people in the world to get a degree in digital currency (in 2016).

My griff.eth address is on 93 Safe’s and this one will help me on my march to 100 😉

## Conflict of Interest Declaration:

- **Have you been involved in any projects or proposals funded by the DAO? If yes, please specify.**
- **Do you have any interests that might be seen as a conflict of interest if you are selected as a multi-sig signer?**

I am a walking conflict of interest… I am a serial crypto founder of 10+ projects that live off grants and many of them may request a grant from Arbitrum (Giveth has received a couple). I also relatively influential in the Optimism and Polygon ecosystems, also Gnosis but to a lesser extent. I see my activity in these “competing” ecosystems as a plus not a negative as it gives me context and insight for this industry that few have access to.

I have a lot of reputation in the space and have no intention of tarnishing it.

## Motivation:

- **Why are you interested in joining the MSS and what do you believe you can contribute to the MSS?**

Mostly because Matt Fiebach of blockworks recommended I do it.

Honestly, I have seen things you wouldn’t believe & I truly care, I actually caught that there was no clawback function in the most recent Gaming multisig that is receiving 225M ARB this week, and I take signing txs seriously.

I don’t want to be a chair as I have a lot of responsibilities, and don’t have the bandwidth to do a good job, but I will definitely review transactions and make sure they get executed safely.

## References:

- **Please provide contact information for at least two references who can attest to your qualifications and character.**
