ZecHub to transition to DAO governance model
The education hub will add 7 voting members in order to decentralize governance and operations
ZecHub, an open-source education hub for Zcash, will transition to a DAO governance model on October 1st, 2022 for its second season.
Since starting ZecHub in June, I have solely managed the project. Select community members have contributed in various areas to support, and I’m excited to see them further involved in ZecHub’s daily operations and decision making processes.
My goal is to see ZecHub fully managed by members of the Zcash community. I believe having a laser-focused, niche DAO is an optimal next step in doing so.
ZecHub invited 7 members of the Zcash community to join the DAO and all have accepted their invitations.
ZecHub’s role in the Zcash community is to manage a podcast, provide news updates around activities related to Zcash, and to create education materials focused on end-users. By decentralizing its efforts, and having team members dialed in on their specific roles, we’ll be able to consistently distribute more content via our channels.
The DAO will also serve as an experiment for future Zcash organizations who are interested in new forms of decentralized governance models, and ZEC’s utility cross-chain.
The DAO’s governance model, and operational processes, will be made public in the Zcash LATAM discord.
I’m looking forward to working with the team on decentralizing ZecHub, and providing an open-source model that incentivizes participation from all Zcash community members.
Thank you all for your support.
