Thank you to everyone who has shown support for Eugene and our team. The outpouring from this community has meant everything to us during this difficult time.
As previously mentioned, while we had targeted last week to ship Plume Genesis, we put that on pause to mourn and cherish our friend. But we must move forward. It's what Eugene would've wanted, and this is how we honor him.
We've worked closely with our team, investors, and advisors to ensure that our roadmap continues full steam ahead. To that end, we're ecstatic to have @danlevine step up as our new Head of Engineering, to lead all of our engineering team and staff.
Dan joined Plume last year as one of our lead engineers and has been nothing short of exceptional. He brings with him a tremendous background spanning both Web2 and Web3, as a founder, operator, and executive.
Previously Dan founded StyleSeat, a leading ecommerce platform, and raised over $50M while scaling it to over $2B+ in bookings / year. He then dove headfirst into crypto as a derivatives trader, and then founded Swan to build Bitcoin-based financial services.
Dan's expertise in both founding and scaling world-class Web2 products while deeply understanding crypto is incredibly unique and a perfect fit for what we're doing at Plume -- bringing web2 and web3 together. We couldn't be more excited to have Dan take us to the next level.
Plume Genesis this week. Time to lock in.
