Hi everyone!
The application period has ended. Anyone joining the platform today or later won’t be added to the UI or included in communications during the rally.
Vote 178, which activated on-chain delegation, passed successfully and was enacted on Saturday, August 24th. The UI for comfortable delegation is expected to be released today, but if you can’t wait, here’s a guide on how to delegate via Etherscan: Etherscan Voting Guide.
The rallies supported by Lido channels comms start today and will run until September 18th. Delegates who attract 2M or more voting power during this period will qualify for the Delegate Incentivisation Program (DIP). However, not qualifying for the DIP does not prevent others from participating in governance.
The Delegate Oversight Committee will need a few days to prepare the delegate lists and finalize the rally program. Delegate list will appear in the UI early next week.
