Welcome!

Since the last Community Governance vote did not reach the required quorum to elect neither a new Grant Committee Lead nor new Grant Committee members, we now kickstart a new election process to provide the Community Treasury with formally properly elected members to fill these positions in the Community Treasury Grant Committee. To ensure fair and equal elections, we urge all applicants not to use the current social media channels of the Tangle Treasury to promote individual candidates. Applicants shall use their private social media channels. All election- and campaign-related topics shall only be published and discussed in the following channels: governance forum, #governance-discussions, and #tangle-treasury of the official IOTA Discord server.

The Community is happy you are considering becoming the Lead of the Community Treasury Program.

This position requires high dedication, a mindset of being a servant of the Ecosystem, and the ability to enable the best in others. You will lead a team of highly skilled and dedicated grant reviewers. With your work and dedication to this position, you will be able to shape the future of the Shimmer and IOTA Ecosystem. We expect the best from you, and the community will put a lot of trust in your ability to act responsibly with the budget that the committee receives.

Please use the template. Please tell us everything possible that you think the community needs to know about you.
