Summary

To improve AssangeDAO’s governance responsiveness and allow for more decentralized proposal creation, this proposal recommends appointing two new proposers from a group of trusted community contributors. The final selection will be made through a community-wide Snapshot vote.

Rationale

Currently, AssangeDAO’s governance process has been hindered by a lack of active proposers, restricting proposal publication and slowing down important community decisions. With the recent revitalization of forum-based governance (via AIP-12), it’s critical that we empower trusted contributors with proposer access to ensure open and regular proposal flow.

This proposal seeks to formally elect two new proposers via Snapshot from a shortlist of active contributors drawn from past GTU candidates and members. Their participation will improve governance continuity, distribute responsibility, and invite wider community engagement.

Responsibilities of Proposers

Post proposals on Snapshot that meet minimum formatting and community discussion criteria. Provide guidance to other community members on proposal formatting and clarity. Stay responsive in governance discussions on the forum and Discord. Help maintain a transparent and effective governance process.

Term and Removal Conditions

Term: 2 years, renewable via re-election. Voluntary Resignation: Proposer may step down with notice. Removal by Community Vote (via Snapshot): Prolonged inactivity (60+ days without cause) Misconduct or violation of DAO principles Behavior inconsistent with the mission and values of AssangeDAO

Nominees for Proposer Role

Community members will vote for two proposers from the following seven candidates:

Bz Public Profiles: X Contribution History: Core team member, moderated Discord, joined the Multisig, and is a long-time supporter of Julian Assange.
