Hi everyone! Delighted to share my candidacy as well - I’m Julian La Picque, a Swiss-based finance executive, board member and Group CFO of Chiliz, with extensive experience in Web3, digital-asset treasury, investment, token liquidity, governance and regulation. Although I am relatively new to the Horizen community, I am excited by its privacy-focused and compliance-oriented direction. I would be pleased to bring a practical financial perspective to the Special Council, support strong proposals and help build sustainable utility for ZEN. I live in Switzerland and would openly disclose and carefully manage any potential conflicts arising from my existing blockchain roles. Thanks [Special Council Candidate: Julian La Picque (Switzerland)](https://horizen.discourse.group/t/special-council-candidate-julian-la-picque-switzerland/1149)
