Lorimer Jenkins is a British software developer and entrepreneur known as the co-founder and CEO of Liquid Labs, a company that develops operational tools for Web3 organizations. He is recognized for his work within the Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) ecosystem. ^{[1] [2]}

Early Life

Jenkins developed an interest in technology and programming at a young age. He began coding at the age of 13 and soon applied his skills commercially by building websites for local businesses. This early experience provided him with a foundation in software development and client-facing project work. ^[1]

Career

Jenkins' career in the technology sector transitioned toward blockchain and Web3 following his discovery of Bitcoin in 2017. His interest in the space deepened in 2020 with his exploration of the Ethereum network and its potential for decentralized applications. He began working as a freelance Web3 developer, gaining practical experience by contributing to several prominent Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). His work included contributions to projects such as Index Coop, a decentralized asset manager, and Aave Grants DAO, the grants program for the Aave protocol. ^[1]

Through his direct involvement with these DAOs, Jenkins identified significant operational inefficiencies, particularly in managing contributor payments, payroll, and task allocation. He observed that many decentralized organizations lacked standardized tooling, leading to complex and often manual processes for compensating a global and fluid workforce.

LiquidOps

His experience led him to establish Liquid Labs, with the goal of creating infrastructure to solve these challenges. As co-founder and CEO, Jenkins oversees the development of Liquid Ops, a platform designed to help Web3 organizations streamline contributor management, payments, and on-chain reputation tracking.

LiquidOps is an overcollateralized lending and borrowing protocol developed on the Arweave and AO ecosystems. The platform enables users to supply digital assets to liquidity pools to earn interest, or to borrow assets by providing collateral that exceeds the value of the loan.

Jenkins is currently based in London, United Kingdom. ^{[1] [2]}
