### Blockworks Advisory in the Drift Ecosystem

Blockworks Advisory is committed to supporting the growth and decentralization of Drift through active and informed governance participation. As Drift continues to scale, two critical areas for success will be a surgical expansion of its liquidity programs and the careful vetting of new institutional-grade assets.

Our team is well-positioned to provide expert guidance on both fronts. Our experience in economic modeling and design can help the DAO structure the strategic incentives required for successful liquidity provision. To support the safe onboarding of new markets, we can leverage our established track record in asset listing and risk screening, having performed similar work for protocols like Ethena and MoreMarkets. Our prior history operating, observing, and improving Lido, Jito, and Arbitrum, positions us as an experienced delegate; our goal as a delegate is to apply this expertise to governance, helping the Drift DAO navigate future growth opportunities.
