Hi @Michael

I chose 0x8f5415415d9200ccd8523f3ee88f96f476141cc3 as my delegate for the simple reason that he was to represent minority OP holders instead of whales. The community must be heard and having a strong combined voice will eventually make its mark on the overall ecosystem.

I did, however, notice that he now has a less than 30% participation rate, which is concerning to me as he previously had a good track record: Retro Delegate Rewards: Season 4 - #18 by v3naru_Curia

I am not sure what I should do about it this late in the incentives program.

Open to hearing your thoughts on the matter. :thinking:

Thanks all!

I choose to delegate to lefteris (lefteris.eth | Optimism Governance Dashboard by curiaLab.).

He has a 97% participation rate here in total and 100% in the last 5 votes, confirming his activity.

I appreciate his mission with Rotki and his implication in growing the public goods ecosystem. I often align with his voice in the various discussions in the space, too. Additionally, I have witnessed lefteris being active and responsive as a multisig signer on large projects and this confirms his dedication and seriousness.

I delegate to l2beat.eth because they embrace the ethos of the crypto space that align with me, being decentralization, transparency and neutrality. I believe we need more actors like them.

I delegate to polynya.eth with my personal OP tokens and I chose to also delegate my govNFT. Polynya is a thoughtful skeptic and most representative of my values and thoughts on defi in general. With a 99% vote participation there has only been one proposal that polynya has not voted on. Also a 5% non-conformity ratio for those interested in that sort of thing. Happy delegating!

Hey @Phantohm,

This delegates last vote was 10 months ago. I strongly recommend changing to a delegate that is currently active.

If you want to find stats on other delegates here including their largest delegators OP Delegate.

Hi,

  • What delegate did you choose?

I delegated to myself as I want to ramp up my activity as a delegate.

  • What is the voting participation of the last 5 votes of your delegate?

2 out of 5, as said: I am now ramping up. Hence also the wish to participate in that program.

  • In what ways is this delegate aligned with you?

I have two personalities of course, but my onchain personality is super super aligned with myself.

More seriously: I am here to advocate for deliberative processes as key pilar of governance. To do so I want to become more active as a delegate.

  • What delegate did you choose?
    opmichael.eth

  • What is the voting participation of the last 5 votes of your delegate?
    Michael has 100% voting participation in recent votes

  • In what ways is this delegate aligned with you?

    I thought Michael was good to delegate to because supports the progress that the optimism votes promote. I saw he has 6% Non-conformity ratio so that means he usually supports the vote for progress but still votes outside of the box when he has original ideas.
