Hi all,

I'm Denny from [Darwinia](https://darwinia.network/) core dev team, Darwinia is a decentralized cross-chain bridge protocol building on Substrate, we've developed a bridge between Ethereum and Darwinia based on on-chain light client framework, and we are going to support more bridges and connecting more public chains to Polkadot. Besides, we've integrated Frontier's EVM smart contract solution to Darwinia to manage cross-chain assets and dapps, including fungible tokens and NFTs.

We've been practicing governance(Council/Democracy/Technical Member) on Darwinia Mainnet and Crab for months, and I really like the way of on-chain governance and runtime upgrade. We also collaborated with [Subscan](https://www.subscan.io/) Team to give product feedbacks and improve related features.

We are interested to participate in the Polkadot/Kusama Governance, I'm here to represent Darwinia and give a note explaining our candidacy. Darwinia core team have been building bridges, evm solution and other stuffs on substrate for nearly two years, and we are also preparing to get connected into Polkadot as a parachain, we will participate by contributing to these governance proposals/topics with our votes after been selected. We can contribute votes/ideas to other proposals as well since we are confident that we have a deep understanding of Polkadot/Substrate, and we are still continue researching and learning.

Darwinia's on-chain identities(multisig) which could participate in governance are as following:

Polkadot: [https://polkadot.subscan.io/account/14Coka5wUrj4fE1aRuMF8aEPEZr3DnSFiXeA9Yz2AHFsqQdv](https://polkadot.subscan.io/account/14Coka5wUrj4fE1aRuMF8aEPEZr3DnSFiXeA9Yz2AHFsqQdv)

Kusama:

We will submit our candidacy soon on-chain when ready, now we are seeking backups. If you like what we are doing and know us well, please remember to backup us❤️

Cheers!
