Governance Updates: Community Feedback in Action
From the Community: I_Vas (@vasyl8888)
Our community member I_Vas shared some valuable insights this month. While our proposal for a slot in Puffer Finance’s next DVT integration was rejected (details on Puffer Governance), we’ve pivoted with optimism. SafeStake has approached the Lido team to apply for the Community Staking Module (CSM) eco grant—a move that could further decentralize Ethereum staking. We’re awaiting a response and remain hopeful for a positive outcome.Stay tuned for updates! Read More.
Thank you, I_Vas, for keeping us on our toes—we love seeing our community drive progress!
Additionally, we have exciting news: The Ethereum Foundation has given us positive feedback regarding the Ethereum Support Program and has invited us to an Office Hour call in the coming days. We’re eager to make a strong impression and secure their support!.
