#### Short Pitch (TL;DR):

cp0x is a Web3 community actively contributing to the development of decentralized ecosystems and user education. We create open educational resources, engage in DAO governance, support decentralized infrastructure, and help newcomers better understand blockchain technology.

Key Initiatives: • Educational Translations – We translate and adapt blockchain-related lectures and books, including Princeton Blockchain course, lectures from a16z about Blockchain, How to DeFi, The Network State, and other materials focused on decentralization and blockchain fundamentals.

- Public Discussions & Research – We facilitate open discussions about the challenges of blockchain development and governance through public community calls and debates.

- Deployment of Permissionless Web Interfaces – We deploy and maintain independent interfaces for well-known protocols when official frontends introduce unnecessary restrictions. This ensures that permissionless smart contracts remain accessible, protecting users’ ability to engage with DeFi without censorship or centralized limitations.

- Crypto Infrastructure Participation – We operate validators/delegators across various networks, including Ethereum, TheGraph, Polkadot, Symbiotic, and EigenLayer, ensuring decentralization and security.

- Governance Engagement – We are active delegates in Lido, Arbitrum, Optimism, and other governance systems, advocating for fairness, decentralization, and better incentives.

- Protocol Bootstrapping – We actively help bootstrap early-stage protocols by providing liquidity and fostering community engagement to solve the “chicken-and-egg” problem.

- Podcast & Media – We host a YouTube podcast where builders and founders share honest insights about the crypto industry, Ethereum, and decentralization.

By combining education, governance participation, and protocol development, cp0x remains committed to advancing decentralization, empowering users, and fostering an open and permissionless blockchain ecosystem

### Experienced professional delegate

We have been active in the DAO governance of Arbitrum, Optimism, Lido, Uniswap, CoW, Treasure and many more

#### Motivation:

Due to our extensive experience interacting with DAOs, we can help Obol evolve by taking best practices from other DAOs

#### Conflict of Interest:

Although we are members of multiple DAOs, we have no conflict of interest as we are not employees or investors of any of these DAOs

### [OIP#3 Obol Collective 2025 Goals](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/obol/proposal/50052813771879285102380114984764089697550484556846324327913560533190170736907)

* * *

General goals:

- gain 10% stake share for Obol DV among staking protocols
- gain 10% stake share for Obol DV among custodians
- 25,000 ETH staked with Obol
- increase the number of Silver Techne operators by 30%
- increase stOBOL liquidity through agreements with market makers and introduce liquidity to top DeFi protocols
- top 10 delegates will receive a portion of the staking reward (Obol decided that 10 is enough for now, and then they can increase it)
- formalize a grant program

Thanks for answering my questions in the thread and dispelling my doubts. Of course, these goals will have a positive impact on the protocol

### [Redistribute Unclaimed Airdrop to $OBOL Stakers](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/obol/proposal/42716918524819099764719128892074936994976810846828605915610483046231685146403)

* * *

20 million unclaimed airdrop tokens are to be distributed to users who actively place $OBOL tokens

Distribution method: proportional to the amount of $OBOL contributed by each user

I don’t think it’s very fair to distribute x2 to those who have claimed, rather than put the tokens in the treasury|or give a short period to claim those who haven’t had time, at least

### [OIP #4 Delegate Compensation and Delegate Reputation Score Integration (stOBOL)](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/obol/proposal/20181634516748464451610248211159268435895719937634767398559286055659757648365)

Here’s why I believe it should be rejected at this stage:

1. Overpriced smart contract development – $35,000  
The task is straightforward: fetch the delegate rating from the oracle and apply a simple formula. This should take no more than a week. No developer earns $35k for one week of work
2. Inflated audit cost – $20,000  
For such limited functionality, a few days are sufficient to write tests, verify logic, and produce a report
3. Frontend cost – $10,000 for a single page  
A basic delegate display page, already implemented in many DAOs, doesn’t justify this price
4. Operational costs for scoring providers are not considered  
For comparison, Karma charges $7,250/month to provide and maintain a similar dashboard in another DAO
5. The monthly cost far exceeds the benefit  
The proposal allocates 27,500 OBOL ($4,250) per month to delegates, meaning top delegates would earn only $100–$200/month — unlikely to have any meaningful impact on participation

### [OIP#5 Extension of the Airdrop Claim Period for Eligible Participant](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/obol/proposal/29483747347520500834458432109641193798720743379553989524502910046223092148985)

* * *

As the author of this proposal, it’s only natural that I’ll be voting in favor of it.  
I firmly believe that a project should show loyalty to users who contribute real value — and those users deserve a fair extension of the claim period for the tokens they’ve rightfully earned

### [OIP#6 Assigning the Cancel Role to the Obol Association](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/obol/proposal/100136572429972201092399149325653021919410159214443100676789892534723828331825)

Despite good intentions, this role enables the restriction of any initiative.  
Following our criticism, they introduced a committee to oversee it — but full control still remains with Obol:

- 1 from Obol Association
- 1 from Obol Labs
- 1 from DAO

### [OIP#7 Staking Rewards Extension & Transition Toward Programmatic Revenue Sharing](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/obol/proposal/77455170698122364914470908839673396624399584829579240642780337887413157214700)

* * *

Despite the fact that staking income is halved compared to EIP 1, it’s good that Obol made this proposal and supported stakers whose rewards period ended in November 2025.  
The goal isn’t just profit, but also delegation and governance, as well as stability. Therefore,

I support the decision to extend the staking program for up to six months.  
We will be monitoring how new rewards are calculated for the future program based on the protocol’s profits.
