His personal skills matched with business acumen ARE a rare combo

When I first met Daren, he naturally pulled the room in. His clear display of personal skills matched with business acumen was a rare combo. I was a newcomer to the blockchain field and attended a presentation by the company he founded, focused on hardware for mining. It instantly captivated me. Later, I had the chance to pitch Daren on a concept I was developing—Cirus. He became enthralled in the idea of matching data ownership and sovereignty in a meaningful way to people - which is what he stood for. It was without a doubt that his contribution, from hardware expertise to user experience, brought this concept together beautifully into a single product. I am proud to say, even through difficult times, Daren's level of optimism never waned, and his commitment to people was clear in every interaction he pursued.
