We are excited to share with the Collective our relaunch: we are now SEEDGov!
From SEED Latam to SEED Org: About a broader reorganization into SEEDGov, SEEDNode and SEED Latam
As SEED Latam evolved, so has our scope. We grew from a community into SEED Org, an organization with three key verticals: SEEDGov is our Delegate Platform, the first Latam-based platform actively engaged in governance activities; SEEDNodes focuses on nodes infrastructure and education services; and SEED Latam, our original branch, is centered on communities, collaboration hubs, and knowledge-sharing, hosting online initiatives. We invite you to know more about us here. For this reason, the rebranding to SEEDGov reflects our aim to streamline our structure—SEEDGov focuses on governance, while SEED Latam continues with community-driven initiatives. This distinction helps clarify our identity, both internally and externally.
Our early days:
Before delving into the details of this rebranding, let’s take a brief look at our journey. The SEED Latam delegation in Optimism has always embraced a collaborative approach, with contributions from various members along the way. Throughout this journey ,we’ve been fortunate to have the support of several collaborators across past seasons. Our delegation in Optimism has worked to spread knowledge about Optimism within the Spanish-speaking community, primarily in Latin America. We’ve taken this effort further by actively involving the community in the delegation’s decisions and voting. You can read more about this in our articles The Social Consensus of SEED Latam and The composition of the SEED Latam delegates vote.
Adapting to Optimism’s iteration:
Optimism continually evolves with new structures, roles, and responsibilities each season. To keep pace, we have expanded and reorganized our team, ensuring that we can contribute in all the directions the Collective is growing. Our deep understanding of the OP stack and governance mechanisms enables us to align our work seamlessly with the needs of the protocol, builders, and end-users, thus making meaningful contributions to the community. As a result, we’ve consolidated a team with specific roles that operates horizontally. Our team is composed of @Joxes as tech researcher -who participated in the Grants Council for the Builders vertical during S5; @Pumbi as governance analyst-collaborator on Token House participation and incentives: Season 5 (Cycle 16-19) and member of the Code of Conduct Council S6; @delphine e as coordinator and @Fehz as governance lead of SEEDGov, the delegation platform of SEED Org. Additionally, we are collaborating with partners like Zenbit for developing tools.
Today: A Governance Platform
Amid Season 6, we are at a key moment of crystallizing this methodology and continue to operate horizontally, where each member tackles a specific role, functioning as a platform similar to others in the ecosystem.
Finally, in line with this evolution, we are pleased to announce that you will now find us on the forum as SEEDGov. Additionally, we will soon change our ENS to SEEDGov (op.seedgov.eth).
