Treasury Council Decision #66: Replacement of Dapp Whisperer by Jwei
TLDR: Dapp Whisperer, whose security expertise has been pivotal in safeguarding treasury operations, is stepping down from full-time contributions. Jwei, a long-standing contributor and current leader in Web3 and eBTC core development, is proposed as his replacement. With over a year of active involvement, Jwei has demonstrated a strong understanding of protocol and treasury management, alongside deep DeFi-native knowledge, making him an ideal candidate to continue ensuring the treasury’s secure and efficient operations.
Background
Dapp Whisperer has been one of BadgerDAO’s most committed contributors. As part of the founding vision of the organization and the architect behind many of its key protocols, his work has been foundational to the DAO’s success. In addition, his contributions as a Treasury Councillor, particularly in the areas of risk mitigation and safeguarding treasury operations, have played a crucial role in ensuring smooth and secure processes.
With Dapp stepping back from full-time contributions, it is essential to bring in a replacement to the Treasury Council who can maintain the same high standards of security and operational integrity. Jwei, who has taken over Web3 leadership and eBTC core development, has been a contributor to the DAO for over a year. He brings extensive experience in protocol management, treasury operations, and DeFi strategies, and has expressed interest in the role. His involvement in core product development provides a unique overlap with treasury functions, making him a natural successor.
Proposal
Jwei is proposed as a replacement for Dapp Whisperer on the Treasury Council. Jwei brings:
- A security-focused mindset developed from working closely with protocol development and treasury operations.
- In-depth knowledge of Badger’s products, particularly eBTC, and an understanding of how treasury decisions impact the broader ecosystem.
- Extensive DeFi-native expertise, which is crucial for navigating the complexities of treasury management, risk mitigation, and optimizing returns for the DAO.
Jwei has already established himself as a key figure within BadgerDAO, and his experience ensures that the transition will be smooth, maintaining the integrity and operational security of the treasury.
