Update - UAGP/UADP Committee Elections: Snapshot Vote Live

Following the conclusion of our 2-weeks nomination process, we are grateful to have witnessed a great level of participation. A massive shoutout to everyone who took the time to join in, share their thoughts, and throw their hat in the ring for the Grant and Delegate programs!

It’s been amazing to see participation from both the Uniswap and Arbitrum communities, with many active in both ecosystems.

With this momentum, we’re excited to move forward to the election stage as planned.

Next Steps

  • Snapshot Vote (5 days): A formal vote is live on Snapshot for a timeframe of 5 days - here for the UAGP and here for the UADP. The votes run with a simple approval voting allowing to select all nominees you support for the role.
  • Announcement & Onboarding: After the snapshot vote, the top 3 nominees for UAGP and the leading nominee for UADP will be onboarded to their respective committees and a community announcement will be released. Before onboarding a KYC check will be conducted.

Snapshot Vote Procedure

  • The snapshot vote will commence on 9th October and conclude on the 14th.
  • Elections are conducted by approval voting. Approval voting allows you to select all the nominees you support for the role of Committee Member. You can select as many or as few candidates to approve as you like.
  • The vote will be considered valid if a minimum of 10m delegated UNI is reached, per the community governance process.

Committee Operating Policies

We request that delegates and community members involved in this vote and committee activities adhere to the guidelines established in prior discussions. These principles serve as the foundation for this committee’s initial iteration and may be formally integrated into the committee’s bylaws through upcoming governance actions.

  • Candidates cannot vote for themselves in Snapshot vote.
  • Anyone part of Grant Committee (UAGP) should not apply for Grants that can fall under the assessment of Grant Committee to mitigate conflicts of interests.
  • Anyone part of the Protocol Delegate Program (UADP) should not make proposals that can fall under the assessment of the Protocol Delegate to mitigate conflicts of interests.
  • Retiring committee members are responsible for nominating and educating their successors.

Should you have any questions, concerns, or feedback regarding the upcoming stages, please do not hesitate to contact us:

  • Comment in this thread
  • Direct message on the forum or on Twitter (@bernard_xyz)

We appreciate your involvement and look forward to moving to the next steps!
