Decentralizing Access Control with Michael Lewellen

As protocols move towards more decentralized governance using multi-sigs and DAOs, on-chain access control is always top concern. Ensuring the right governance participants and protocol maintainers have the appropriate permissions for their roles is often messy and hard to maintain, even for centralized entities. In this talk, we'll review tools and techniques to create highly effective access control systems on-chain for web3 protocols while keeping governance decentralized where it matters most. https://twitter.com/LewellenMichael Michael Lewellen Head of Solutions Architecture OpenZeppelin Michael is the Head of Solutions Architecture at OpenZeppelin where he offers web3 security advice to leading financial institutions and blockchain protocols.
