Viktor Bunin leads the Protocol Operations team at Coinbase Cloud, the largest staking infrastructure provider. He is the industry’s first Protocol Specialist, a role he created as an early employee of Bison Trails (acq by Coinbase) that has now become an industry staple at orgs like a16z and Blockdaemon. 

He helped 30+ protocols design incentivized testnets, governance, incentives, and network parameters, and launch their mainnets. Viktor drove the governance effort to launch NEAR's mainnet, led the first decentralized protocol merger between Keep & NuCypher to create Threshold Network, and created the Flashbots Eth2 Working Group.

As a community leader, he hosted a podcast on decentralization and credible neutrality with Brian Armstrong and Vitalik Buterin, served as one of the lead organizers of ETHDenver, and spoke at Devcon and other events.
