Who is Kobie McGlashan?
in short: he’s the person building
@bulktrade. but behind that is much more experience and history.
he’s 29, from England. before web3, he worked in operations management: teams, processes, planning, results. experience where keeping a system running smoothly matters most.
during this time, he met Jun - an engineer with deep knowledge of
@solana: validators, network layer, and transaction execution.
it was a meeting of complementary skills and perspectives.
→ Kobie focuses on people, systems, and the ecosystem.
→ Jun focuses on architecture, network, and performance.
they saw the same problem: to trade perps fast, users usually have to hand over their assets to a centralized exchange.
and they decided it could be different.
> that’s how Bulk came to be - a perp infrastructure operating at the validator level.
CEX-like speed, DEX-like asset control.
validators earn a share of orderbook fees and pass yield to stakers.
with this approach and team, Bulk is set to grow and evolve.
