Our mission is to drive innovation and enhance the functionality of Terra Classic, leveraging our expertise in blockchain technology and decentralized systems. ## Core Team Members ### Kevin, Senior Blockchain Engineer - 4+ years of specialization in blockchain development. - Experience with Cosmos SDK and CosmWasm, various contribution to the public goods. - Managing complex blockchain upgrades at Composable (v50 upgrades, migrations, lead testing in various scenarios like wasm, solana, cosmos) - Deep understanding of CosmWasm and Solidity smart contracts Github: https://github.com/kienn6034 ### Tien Nguyen, Senior Blockchain Engineer - 5+ years of backend development, 3+ years of blockchain experience in both EVM and Cosmos. - Lead maintainer of Fee Abstraction repository(https://github.com/osmosis-labs/fee-abstraction), extensive knowledge of Go development and Cosmos-SDK. Understanding of consensus mechanisms and blockchain in general. - Experience in unforking SDK 45 for Cudos chain and SDK 47 for Fee Abstraction module, upgrading Fee Abstraction module to SDK 50. Github: https://github.com/tnv1 ### Tuan Tran, Blockchain Engineer - Core Developer at Quicksilver Protocol, maintainer of Fee Abstraction repository - Track records of L1 development for Cudos, Quicksilver chain - Deep understanding of Cosmos SDK upgrade process, has experience upgrading SDK45 -> SDK46 for Cudos chain, and SDK 47 -> SDK 50 for Eve Network. - Experience in documentating and communicating effectively to stakeholders Github: https://github.com/tuantran1702 and along that with guidance of a senior engineer as an advisor for our team, who has 5+ years of Blockchain Development. He has a history of managing various Cosmos chain situations like Cosmos-SDK upgrade to v47, to v50, security patching and validator coordination. ## [Why OrbitLabs?](#why-orbitlabs) - Deep technical expertise: Our team combines over 20+ years of collective programming experience, with 10+ year of blockchain experience, with specialized knowledge in Cosmos SDK, CometBFT, and CosmWasm. - Proven track record: We have successfully implemented complex upgrades and migrations for other blockchain projects. - Commitment to open source: Key contributions to previous blockchain projects like Composable, WhiteWhale, Cudos, various contributions to public goods infrastructure: CosmosSDK, CometBFT, ibc-go, rollkit,... Our contributions to public goods demonstrate our dedication to the broader blockchain community. - Diverse skill set: From low-level blockchain architecture to smart contract development and project management, we cover all aspects of the proposed upgrades. Our expertise directly aligns with the proposed upgrades for Terra Classic. Our experience with SDK v47 unfork/upgrade, Wasmd, and IBC implementations makes us uniquely qualified to handle the next chapter of Terra Classic efficiently and effectively. ## Community Engagement We understand the importance of community involvement in the success of any blockchain project, especially one with a dedicated community like Terra Classic. Our approach to working with the Terra Classic community includes: - Regular updates: we will provide frequent progress reports to the TerraClassic community via X/Twitter, Telegram and Medium. - Transparent communication: We'll maintain an open dialogue with the community, sharing both successes and challenges throughout the project. - Community feedback integration: We're committed to actively seeking and incorporating community feedback into our development process. - AMA sessions: We'll host regular Ask Me Anything sessions to address any concerns or questions from the community. - Documentation: We'll provide comprehensive, user-friendly documentation for all upgrades and changes. ## KYC Process OrbitLabs team members are willing to complete KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures as soon as possible to enhance trust within the LUNC community. *This applies to Kevin, Tuan Tran, and Tien Nguyen, who will be the ones contributing contribute to the Terra Classic codebase* if future OrbitLabs's proposals are approved, whether they're Pay-per-job (PPJ) or any other type of work related to LUNC codebase development. ## Final Thought We're really excited about helping Terra Classic grow and become better. Our team wants to make sure the our contributions benefits everyone who uses Terra Classic. Here's what we're planning to do: + *Work hard to improve Terra Classic*: We'll use our skills to make the system work better and be more useful. + *Make the upgrade easy*: We'll do our best to make sure the changes don't cause problems for anyone. + *Think about the future*: We're not just fixing things for now - we want Terra Classic to keep getting better for a long time. + *Listen to the community*: We want to hear what Terra Classic users think and need. Your ideas and feedbacks are important to us. + *Build trust*: We'll be open about what we're doing and why we're doing it. We believe that by working together, we can make Terra Classic great again. We're looking forward to being part of this journey and seeing Terra Classic reach its full potential.
