We're thrilled to announce the hiring of Salil Shah as our new Chief Operating Officer. Salil was most recently a Director at Meta, heading global go-to-market and growth for Meta Fintech, and previously ran BD and corp dev for Pinterest’s ads business.  He brings deep business experience to the DeSo team.  

With extensive expertise in business development, partner ecosystems, and go-to-market, Salil will partner with Nader to run the business side of things as DeSo prepares to ramp up partnerships and developer ecosystem growth

With Salil on board, we can now begin to invest heavily in the following:

• Building out our developer ecosystem around DeSo
• Pursuing partnerships with household names
• Getting DeSo listed on more exchanges
• Ramping up DeSo awareness
• Building DeSo into a word class organization

And many other areas!

Stay tuned for more updates as Nader and Salil review immediate areas of growth and improvement, including what's on the current roadmap.

Salil is joining DeSo at a time when the marketing flywheel has started to take effect and as we're beginning to experience steady month-over-month growth. Recently, DeSo crossed 136,000 MAUs, and 1.8 million wallets, with millions, already paid out to creators.
