AIP-17A: Election of the First New Multisig Signer for AssangeDAO
Summary
Following AIP-15, which established the process for adding two new Multisig Signers to AssangeDAO, this proposal (AIP-17A) initiates the first Snapshot vote to elect one Multisig Signer from five shortlisted finalists. A second vote (AIP-17B) will elect the second signer. This aims to restore efficient governance, transparency, and alignment with AssangeDAO’s mission.
Background
AIP-15 addressed governance gaps due to the departure of original Multisig Signers. After a three-week nomination period and two-week community discussion, the Governance Transition Unit (GTU) shortlisted five finalists based on governance activity, community trust, and role fit. This proposal submits them for a Snapshot vote to select the first Multisig Signer.
Roles & Responsibilities
Execution: Execute approved Snapshot proposals on Gnosis Safe within 72 hours.
Accountability: Justify any delays (e.g., legal/security concerns) publicly.
