Key Information

1. Introduction

Areta specializes in helping foundations and DAOs establish and grow decentralized governance structures. Our core focus is to increase protocol activity by strategically deploying capital through grants, incentives, and builder support programs. Our connected investment bank with deep strategic expertise enables us to serve our partners holistically, rather than working in isolated governance silos.

We have had the privilege to work for some of the leading companies and DAOs in the crypto space such as Arbitrum, Uniswap, Aave, Safe, Polygon, ZKsync, and dYdX. Examples of our work include managing a larger Aave delegation, setting up key contribution initiatives for SafeDAO, leading the first cross-ecosystem growth initiative for Uniswap and Arbitrum, and crypto-native transactions like the first acquisition of Coingecko or the sale of Solscan to Etherscan.

2. Vision and Focus

We see a deep alignment between Areta’s core value proposition and expertise and the specific needs of Superfluid in its governance journey. Our aim is to focus on excellent DAO participation with robust, defensible analysis of proposals through a structured voting process while simultaneously applying our deep institutional knowledge and strategic governance expertise to offer proactive DAO governance solutions aimed at nurturing the Superfluid ecosystem for the long term.

Our core tenets as Superfluid DAO delegates are as follows:

  • 100% Voting Participation - we are deeply invested in the ecosystem and our goal is to meaningfully support its direction via thoughtful, educated governance decisions.
  • Independent and Impartial Voting - our voting is strictly informed by critical analysis and years of experience and is not based on bias or external influences.
  • Communication of Voting Rationale - we will communicate the rationale behind our votes through frequent updates to this thread, making us accountable to the community.

Focus Areas:

  • Builders: enabling smart capital activation for channeling resources towards builders and projects that contribute the most to long-term ecosystem growth.
  • Governance: establishing well-designed governance frameworks that ensure streamlined operations, effective decision-making and accountability.
  • Community: empowering community-driven initiatives, allocating resources to projects that best align with the collective vision for the Superfluid community.

3. Commitment and Engagement

Time Commitment

We’re committed to active governance participation by engaging in forum discussions, governance calls, voting and other forms of contribution.

Community Interaction

We will interact with the community primarily via the forum.

4. Why Delegate to Us?

We are keen to get our hands dirty and directly expand our support to Superfluid DAO in order to strengthen its governance. Our proven governance expertise and ecosystem growth focus uniquely position us to drive Superfluid’s long-term success.
