Matt L - Delegate Communication Thread

This is a very long overdue thread, but I am finally making my own delegate communication thread. This same post may also be used to post delegate communication from the SNX Ambassadors.

I’m a longtime DeFi user, governance contributor, committee member, and councilor.

Most of my views are hyperfocused on the growth of DeFi, yield-generating assets, and finding new ways to support DeFi developers onchain.

My most prominent wallets are:

& Synthetix Ambassador Wallets (which I am elected to by Synthetix Stakers and am a 1/5 voting member of)
https://vote.optimism.io/delegates/opsnxambassadors.eth

Conflict of Interest Statement:

  • I’m a Core Contributor at Synthetix and an elected member of the Synthetix Ambassadors Council (the external governance arm) through the Ambassadors
  • I am also a councilor at Kwenta/TLX/and, most likely, some future ecosystem projects through the SNX Ambassadors.
  • Due to this, I support many Synthetix ecosystem projects through external governance at OP/Arbitrum/et (this includes, but is not limited to, Kwenta, Lyra, Pyth, Polynomial, TLX, Toros/dHEDGE, Infinex, etc.) I am a longtime DeFi nerd, so I love these projects!
  • I’m an elected member of Pyth Network for the Pythian Council & support external governance. A longtime lover of Pyth feeds from SNX.
  • OP Grants Councillor/Delegate/Citizen/etc & ARB Delegate

Anyway, my main goal here is to provide more clarity and reasoning for why I vote a certain way and also to clarify the SNX Ambassadors’ involvement in OP governance.

Thanks all, and apologies that it took this long.

I plan on carrying over some of my votes and thoughts on the most recent proposals I’ve voted on, but for now, I’m carrying over the same as Jack did, as I, too, accidentally voted for the rolling mission requests while being a member of the grants council.

I’ve accidentally voted for the Rolling MRs proposal. Rolling Mission Requests - as a member of the Grant Council I’m not allowed to vote for or against this proposal , just abstain.

This was my mistake and a total oversight on my part. Apologies to my fellow delegates!
