Bastian Köcher is a rank 6 member of the Fellowship. Here are some key points about his work and responsibilities:

• Members at rank 6 must ask to keep their rank every 6 months.
• There are no rank 8+ members to vote for Bastian, so he needs support from all token holders for approval.
• He is focused on making it faster to process blocks for parachains on Polkadot, aiming for every 500 milliseconds.
• Bastian is working on allowing proxies to be used across different chains, which is currently limited.
• He wrote a guide to help people replicate pure proxies between chains.
• Bastian has addressed issues with runtime upgrades that can cause performance problems.
• He actively participates in discussions to help others and maintains the Fellowship runtimes repository.
