Metastate
About us
Who are we?
Metastate is a research and engineering team focused on implementing cutting-edge research from numerous disciplines (distributed systems, PLT, zero-knowledge cryptography) and deploying them to solve hard problems in the blockchain space, such as scalability, secure smart contract languages, secure randomness or privacy.
Metastate is a remote-first team, currently composed of 15 cross-disciplinary researchers and engineers located around the world. Our work culture is characterized by open-allocation, where team members have a high degree of freedom and autonomy in choosing when to work, what to work on, and whom to work with.
Metastate was founded in early 2019 by @adrian_brink, @awasunyin and @cwgoes, with extensive experience in the blockchain space and who previously co-founded Cryptium Labs, a security-oriented proof-of-stake validator from the Swiss Alps.

How we work
SHAPING THE INDUSTRY
We’re interested in identifying the key factors which will determine how distributed ledger technology will be remembered in the history books a century hence, and focusing our comparative advantage on ensuring that these requirements are met.
REMOTE FIRST
We have neither headquarters nor hubs - our team is spread across the globe.
OPEN ALLOCATION
High degree of freedom and autonomy on when you work, what you work on, and whom you work with.
EPISTEMIC HUMILITY
We work on solving hard problems with novel methods, and our initial guesses are often wrong - we adopt a playful attitude and always challenge our own assumptions.
TEAM GATHERINGS
Twice a year, we all meet to work, learn, and go hiking.
