Election Results
Congratulations to Kempsterrrr.eth and to Chuck and Wikist for earning the votes to become our first elected DAO operators! Kemp will serve in the Coordinator role, and Chuck and Wikist will jointly hold our Fundraising role. Both positions are likely to evolve over the course of S1, but we’re confident that the elected parties will set a high bar for future candidates.
