## About Logos

Logos is a movement to rebuild civil society using decentralised technologies. Logos is a sovereign, decentralised technology stack that allows for the creation of new types of corruption-resistant social institutions. It is designed to champion personal liberties and collective abundance through upgrading human governance.

As an open source movement, we need coders, creatives, and anyone passionate to help us build, own, and govern it.

Circles initiative

[Logos Circles](https://circles.logos.co/)are self-organised groups that take action to solve issues that matter locally. They are a form of parallel governance: instead of reforming broken or rigged institutions, they build better ones that live on or are sustained by the network. Circles respond to local needs, build trust on the ground through solving problems, and experiment with real-world applications of Logos tech and values.

## About IFT 

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: The Institute of Free Technology (IFT) is a mission-driven Web3 tech startup studio and venture builder that develops, funds, and scales open-source public goods—including the Logos ecosystem of decentralized infrastructure protocols—to safeguard civil liberties in the digital age.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Non-profit / Venture Studio; funded by substantial historical capital deployment)
- **Headquarters**: Distributed / Remote-first (no central physical HQ; team is globally distributed)
- **Founded**: 2017 (as Status) / IFT as current entity structure
- **Founders**: Carl, Jarrad Hope, and others (Status co-founders)

## Core Business
- **Primary industries**: Web3 Infrastructure, Decentralized Communication Protocols, Blockchain Technology, Open-Source Software Development
- **Target customers**: Developers, dApp builders, Web3 projects, network states, and privacy-conscious end-users (B2B primarily, B2C via consumer apps like Status)
- **Mission**: To build public goods to safeguard civil liberties in the digital age, guided by principles of liberty, censorship resistance, security, privacy, and inclusivity.

## Products & Services
- **Logos (logos.co)**: A movement supporting the development of the decentralized web. Logos technologies lay the foundations for a freer internet upon which communities can evolve into network states. Each protocol in the Logos stack empowers users while upholding civil liberties. Includes:
  - **Status (status.app)**: An open-source, privacy-focused messaging app and mobile browser for the Ethereum network.
  - **Status Network (status.network)**: The underlying decentralized communication network.
  - **Nimbus (nimbus.team)**: A lightweight, efficient Ethereum execution and consensus client.
  - **Keycard (keycard.tech)**: A hardware wallet for secure key management.
  - **Waku**: A decentralized, privacy-preserving peer-to-peer messaging protocol (under Logos).
  - **Vac**: A research and development team building secure, private messaging protocols (including MLS-based group messaging).
- **IFT Venture Studio**: Provides financial, technical, legal, people operations, and brand-building support to incubate new startups from idea to market.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed (private non-profit entity)
- **Key Metric**: Team of 200+ core contributors (as of 2026), plus a growing community of contributors
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by substantial historical capital deployment from Web3-native angels, VCs, family offices, and institutional allocators. The organization is actively fundraising for Logos, targeting crypto VCs, HNWIs, and family offices with a thesis in privacy infrastructure.
- **Growth Signals**: Active hiring across engineering, research, and fundraising roles; expanding the Logos ecosystem; developing frontier decentralized messaging protocols (MLS, Waku); growing headcount from a smaller base to 200+ core contributors.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Mission-driven focus**: Unlike for-profit Web3 projects, IFT is a non-profit dedicated to public goods, which attracts top talent aligned with its principles.
- **Full-stack venture studio model**: Provides comprehensive support (tech, legal, ops, brand) to incubate projects from concept to market, creating a strong ecosystem of interoperable protocols.
- **Deep technical moat**: Building frontier technologies (decentralized group messaging over MLS, peer-to-peer protocols, zero-knowledge proofs, post-quantum cryptography) with no established playbooks, giving them a first-mover advantage.
- **Strong brand and community**: Status and Logos have established credibility in the Web3 space, with a loyal community and a clear manifesto.

## Strategic Focus
- **Logos ecosystem growth**: The primary current priority is building and scaling the Logos stack of decentralized infrastructure protocols.
- **Fundraising for Logos**: Actively raising capital from institutional investors, family offices, and crypto VCs to fund the next phase of development.
- **Decentralized messaging**: Advancing the state of the art in private, decentralized group messaging (MLS, Waku) as a core pillar of the freer internet vision.
- **Open-source development**: Continuing to build all technology as public goods, with minimal hierarchy and a globally distributed, asynchronous team.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Highly mission-driven, with a strong emphasis on liberty, privacy, and decentralization. The team is described as flat, with minimal hierarchy, no fixed work hours, and a high degree of autonomy.
- **Remote-first**: Fully distributed team (200+ contributors) across the globe. Work is async and remote-friendly.
- **Engineering culture**: Engineers have real ownership over frontier tech work. The environment is described as "small team, many hats" where contributors solve hard problems without established playbooks.
- **Compensation**: Competitive, negotiable base compensation, paid in any mix of fiat/crypto. Performance bonuses for certain roles. Compensation ranges visible for some roles (e.g., $81k–$150k for engineering roles).
- **Notable perks**: Work on truly cutting-edge Web3 infrastructure; contribute to open-source public goods; be part of a movement, not just a company; high autonomy and flexibility.
