Nominated by their contributions to the $SUSHI community

Mick Hagen is the CEO/Founder of Genesis Block – a digital bank that’s powered by crypto and DeFi. He is also the founder of Mainframe ($MFT) – a fixed-rate lending and borrowing protocol that acquired Sablier a few months ago. Mick has been participating in the Sushi experiment since the first block. Mick believes that the future of DeFi (and all decentralized protocols) will be owned, organized and operated by the community (no VCs, no premines). Besides $SUSHI, Mick is long on other community-owned protocols including $YFI, $YAM, and $SWRV

Role & Responsibilities

The multi-sig owners will be entrusted to empower & shepherd $SUSHI within the industry. Amongst other responsibilities, the multi-sig owners will be responsible for organizing future votes to build what is in the best long-term interest of $SUSHI and its community; deploying & executing contract changes; and managing treasury & grants.

Subject to future community vote, the multi-sig owners may be superseded by a DAO mechanism - the multi-sig owners would then be tasked to ensure a smooth migration can occur.

The vote

As promised during the $SUSHI handover to @SBF_Alameda, $SUSHI is now organizing the first governance elections in order to transfer ownership over to a multi-sig wallet. The vote is open to any $SUSHI-ETH LP (aka SUSHIPOWAH) stakeholders. You may vote on any number of candidates, which were earlier nominated from the open vote and also include some of the $SUSHI builders. The Top 9 candidates will be elected to each hold one key, where 6 will be required to make changes to $SUSHI.
