# **Delegate Oversight Committee Quarterly Report (Q4, 2025)**

**TL;DR:**

All six active delegates met the participation and engagement requirements. Each will receive 16,276 LDO from the $75k quarterly pool. This was the final quarter of the current DAO-approved program; an updated proposal will be brought to the forum soon. Thank you to all delegates for the depth, consistency, and quality of input during a demanding governance cycle.

## **Overview**

The Delegate Oversight Committee reviewed delegate performance for **Q4 2025 (October 1 – December 31)**, focusing on voting activity, delegation thresholds, and quality of governance participation.

Q4 concluded a cycle with elevated strategic load and above-baseline governance complexity.

### **Eligibility Summary**

- **Delegation threshold** : ≥1M LDO (on Snapshot or Aragon) as of October 1.
- **Voting participation** : ≥70% participation on both Aragon and Snapshot.
- **Community engagement** : Constructive, consistent input in governance, including feedback, reasoning, and presence.

All eligible delegates satisfied the criteria and qualified for equal rewards.

## **Performance Evaluation**

| **Delegate** | **Aragon** | **Snapshot** | **Eligible** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [**Anthony Leuts**](https://research.lido.fi/t/anthony-leuts-delegate-thread/8019/) | 4/4 (100%) | 10/10 (100%) | ✅ |
| [**Nansen**](https://research.lido.fi/t/nansen-delegate-thread/8303) | 3/4 (75%) | 10/10 (100%) | ✅ |
| [**polar**](https://research.lido.fi/t/polar-delegate-thread/8048) | 4/4 (100%) | 10/10 (100%) | ✅ |
| [**Lanski**](https://research.lido.fi/t/pol-lanski-delegate-thread/8155) | 4/4 (100%) | 10/10 (100%) | ✅ |
| [**cp0x**](https://research.lido.fi/t/cp0x-delegate-thread/8193/) | 5/4 (100%) | 10/10(100%) | ✅ |
| [**PGov**](https://research.lido.fi/t/pgov-delegate-thread/8232) | 3/4 (100%) | 10/10 (100%) | ✅ |

Delegate engagement remained strong across the board. Feedback quality, accountability, and ongoing dialogue with contributors stayed consistently high throughout the quarter.

**Notes**

- PGov temporarily dropped below the delegation threshold on Nov 4, 2025, but restored delegation before quarter end and remained eligible.
- One non-actionable onchain test vote was excluded from assessment. cp0x still participated; this was recorded as a positive signal of attentiveness.
- ~8M LDO of new voting power was attracted into delegation during the quarter.
- Kuzmich crossed the delegation threshold at the end of December. They also demonstrated consistently high involvement and will be considered if the program is extended.

## **Reward Allocation**

- **Quarterly pool:** $75,000
- **90-Day TWAP (December 31):** 1 LDO = $0.7680 ([source](https://dune.com/queries/1080098))
- **Total LDO distributed:** ≈ 97,656 LDO
- **Per delegate:** 98,555÷ 6 ≈ **16,276 LDO**

## **Next Steps**

- Q4 rewards will be distributed within three weeks of this report.
- The public delegate set will be reviewed, with inactive delegates removed.
- A proposal to extend and update the program will be published on the forum mid Q1, 2026.
- The extension will likely include **Q1** , ensuring active delegates in early 2026 are also rewarded.
- Ongoing eligibility will continue to require ≥70% participation and ≥1M LDO delegation.
