## Acknowledgment

[Tim Beiko](https://x.com/TimBeiko)’s tenure with LEGO began in May 2021, and their lasting contributions to LEGO are self-evident [(Souce)](https://research.lido.fi/t/expand-lego-council-by-adding-tim-beiko/620). Since joining LEGO Beiko contributed necessary insight to keep LEGO Ethereum aligned. It is bittersweet to see them move on to other priorities. We wish you well @timbeiko.

## Expanding The LEGO Committee

Nonetheless, this is an opportunity for LEGO to find someone equally as passionate to act as LEGO’s Ethereum aligned voice. With Eric Siu, LEGO receives a comparable member who strongly grasps Ethereum issuance, macroeconomics, and [MEV](https://cryptoshire.notion.site/MEV-Relay-Operator-Manual-b27d873a8b4b4ec2ad7adec83a6102cb) discussions. Complimentary to their foundational Ethereum knowledge is their previous experience working on public goods programs at [CryptoShire](https://cryptoshire.io/) and long standing participation in Lido DAO research forum, starting at June 2022 [(Source)](https://research.lido.fi/t/ldo-steth-dual-governance/2382/21).

## Altering The Checks & Balances Of LEGO For Routine Operations

In regards to council member addition, we believe the alteration to LEGO’s checks & balances is a positive shift from the current overhead that requires a snapshot vote. The same reasoning behind the integration of Easy Track – to remove uncontentious and routine operations from requiring approval of the DAO agent – applies to this request to expand the powers LEGO is solely responsible for.

1. Have the LEGO members considered a concrete definition for what constitutes an “original” member?  
a. For instance, if “original” is defined as a member that has been a part of LEGO since the genesis then it would include: “vshvsh - General, Tech, kethfinex - Admin, Community, Jules\_Jules1 - Community, kadmil - DeFi Integrations, skozin - Ethereum Liquid Staking, katernoir - Validation Tech” [(Source)](https://research.lido.fi/t/lego-proposal-members-open-initiatives-cont/476). Of these six members Vasiliy, Kadmil, Kethfinex, and Sam are those we can identify based on username, possibly indicating that 5 “original” members do not remain.

2. If this proposal passes, is it implied that the vote to change LEGO’s composition will happen on the forum, similar to TMC votes [(Source)](https://research.lido.fi/t/tmc-3-stsol-repatriation-proposal/8615)?
