On February 22, Paradigm co-founder Matt Huang posted on social media regarding the public identity of Blur founder Pacman:
“Namebase was one of the projects that my co-founder Fred Ehrsam, my partner Charlie Noyes and I decided to invest in early on at Paradigm.
We always say internally that whatever Pacman does next, we’ll support him and remain proud of what Pacman and his team have done to build Blur.”
Blur founder Pacman posted a personal photo on social media earlier today, saying that he dropped out of high school at the age of 17 to join Y Combinator, studied computer science at MIT and received the Thiel Scholarship. After leaving MIT,
Pacman founded Namebase, the developer of the decentralized domain name service Handshake, and sold Namebase to domain name registration service provider Namecheap in February last year.
