We’re pleased to announce that we have eight delegates who have committed to running as candidates for the Aave Delegation Campaign. They are listed below in alphabetical order:
- Blockworks Research
- ConsenSys
- Curia
- DAOStewards
- Diego Ortiz
- Fireyes
- Flipside Governance
- FranklinDAO
- OnChainCoop
- Oxytocin
- StableLab
- TokenLogic
- Wallfacer Labs
We will soon be sharing each of their Delegate Initiatives for voters to make their choice.
The Election is Nigh
The next step before the start of the Campaign is the Election itself.
The Election will run for a week from April 3rd to April 9th, 2023.
We encourage delegates to think about how they’ll promote their candidacy to tokenholders and we’ll, of course, be on hand to help (as well as doing some of our own).
As a reminder, this election will be open to all AAVE and stkAAVE tokenholders to cast a vote.
If you are interested in voting and have any questions, you can reach out to us on this thread or on Discord.
Are You a Large Token Holder? Become a Delegate Partner
Butter’s mission is to accelerate the development and adoption of DAOs through governance. One of the key tenets of our approach is reducing the centralization of voting power.
To that end, we are launching a Delegate Partnership program: if you are a large token holder (or manage large holdings), you can allocate your delegation through Butter.
Here’s how it works:
- As a Delegate Partner, you allocate voting power to our matching fund.
- The delegate will then be elected by other token holders who participate in the Election.
- Your voting power will then be delegated to the election winner, for the duration of the 3-month Delegation Campaign.
Please get in touch on Discord or Twitter to learn more.
Do You Want to Participate in a Butter Election as a Delegate?
Butter’s application form is always open.
The Aave election will start soon, so please get your applications in this week. Any candidates who apply next week won’t have much time to be onboarded and promote their candidacy before the election starts.
Following Aave, we plan to run Delegate Campaigns in other DAOs. You can apply using the same form to be considered in future campaigns.
And if you’d like Butter for your DAO, please reach out.
