The Council

Steward of the Royal Irish Coin

Royal Irish Coin is built and run by one person. Everything you see here — the ledger, the peer network, the Knights of Temple Bar and the Humanitarian Fund — is his work.

MD

Michael Doyle

Founder & Steward of the Chain

Founder of Royal Irish Coin. He designed the chain and its halving schedule, built the wallet and block explorer, set the Irish peer network in motion, founded the Knights of Temple Bar, and directs the ten-million humanitarian allocation.

More stewards to come

Roles are open as the project grows — the chain, the network, the order and the fund will each want a keeper. Send names and roles and they will be added here.

Join the order

Anyone holding RIC can be enrolled as a Knight of Temple Bar and appear on the public roster alongside the founder.
