Decentralized Application Platform, Moralis, Welcomes Former Coinbase Engineer Craig Hammel to its Team

Decentralized application platform Moralis welcomes Craig Hammel to its team as a senior technical advisor.

Appointing Craig Hammel, the first engineering hire of Coinbase, should bring his expertise to the Moralis project and improve the initiative’s capacity to “scale and encompass more blockchains.”

Hammel will help with integrating Moralis’ tools with mobile devices and gaming engines, including Unity.

Moralis, a blockchain or distributed ledger tech (DLT) solution powering decentralized applications (dApps), has been gaining attention after its recent $13.4 million seed funding round, supported by EQT Ventures. The proceeds will support ongoing product development and corporate expansion, “bringing Moralis’ user-friendly interface for dApp development to a broader audience.”

Adding Craig Hammell to the team as a technical advisor will “help scale Moralis into the standard for web3 development.”

As mentioned in a release, it should help with enhancing the appeal of its middleware product, as the team “adds a senior technical advisor with a proven track record in the crypto world to its ranks.”

Craig Hammel will fill the role of advisor; as he “immediately acknowledged the potential and use case for Moralis and its role in taking Web3 into the mainstream.”

Moralis’ Web 3.0 development may become “the next big thing in the cryptocurrency space,” the announcement noted.

As mentioned in the update, Craig Hammel was “the first external engineering hire outside of the people who founded the Coinbase platform,” making him a good fit for the future development of Moralis and its product.

Hammel says he “recognized the potential for Coinbase from day one and helped it to become a household name among cryptocurrency enthusiasts over six years.”

Craig Hammel stated:

“I knew Moralis was important when I discovered it as a developer working on my own Web3 project. It’s like having my own infra team for DeFi, like the missing piece that will enable a thousand times more developers to build on blockchains. I’m very excited to help the Moralis team grow, and the whole ecosystem along with it.”

As noted in the announcement, blockchain developers face “a fragmented landscape of tools and solutions today.”

Although that may be sufficient to solve most individual problems, there is “no unified solution for cross-chain and cross-platform DApp development.” And Moralis aims to “fill that gap and provide a more streamlined user experience for front-end development.”

Established last year, Moralis is a blockchain development platform powering decentralized apps (dApps). Moralis provides an end-to-end blockchain application development platform, allowing developers and companies “to focus on the front-end while handling the entire back-end.”

The platform is empowering developers to “build highly scalable and secure dApps in a matter of days, saving both time and money for projects that don’t have the resources or teams to build, manage, and maintain complex blockchain infrastructure.”
