Public Goods Working Group: Nominate [Dan Hannum or hannum.eth]

Why do you want to be a Steward of this Working Group?

We have been fortunate at GasHawk to receive multiple grants from the PG working group (Small, Growth, Large) and now that we have successfully raised our $1.6M Pre Seed we are ineligible for future PG grants. Since we cannot apply for future grants I believe that eliminates the potential conflict of interest between a steward and their own organization applying for grants.

I have been on most if not all PG working group calls since 2023 as well as many ecosystem calls, have voted in Public Goods funding round with the voting card and now since GasHawk will receive ENS as part of the governance distribution pilot we will continue to vote and support ENS as an organization. I would like to double down and apply to be a PG steward to continue to support both ENS and its working groups but also bring in a viewpoint from someone who's received ENS grants and has ideas on how to improve these process and impact.

Any other information you wish to share with Delegates (e.g. potential conflicts or existing engagements)

Highlighted above but want to reiterate that from my understanding GasHawk is no loner eligible for PG grants so do not forsee any situations where I would be voting for my own company.

As far as exisiting engagements, I am the CEO of GasHawk and have a team to manage however, I believe even without being a steward I have shown the passion and investment in time and energy that will be required of a steward.
