Octopus Network’s Contribution to NDC’s Vision
Support the Octopus Network Founder Nomination for House of Merit Seat
At Octopus Network, we’re excited to share a crucial milestone in NEAR’s journey towards decentralization: The NEAR Digital Collective (NDC). As a key project within the NEAR ecosystem, we are committed to contributing to its growth. Our efforts, including initiatives like $NEAR Restaking and NEAR-IBC, are designed to enhance NEAR’s competitive advantage among leading Layer1 networks, ensuring its prominence in the evolving crypto landscape.
With this vision in mind, we are proud to announce that our founder, Louis Liu, is running for a House of Merit seat in the NDC Governance Elections. Your support and votes from September 8 to 20 would be invaluable to us.
The Power of NDC 🌐
The NDC, led by Illia Polosukhin, is revolutionizing NEAR’s journey toward decentralization. This community-driven initiative establishes self-governance and a dedicated treasury. On-chain voting ensures equitable fund allocation and accountability, fostering transparent decisions. Despite initial custody by the NEAR Foundation, the long-term goal is to return 40% of token supply to the community. NDC’s foundational framework, including the House of Merit, Council of Advisors, and Transparency Commission, paves the way for effective and transparent governance, marking a pioneering step toward decentralization.
