The decentralized exchange SushiSwap 2.0 outlines restructuring plans in response to the recent migration of developers causing turmoil in the platform and community.
According to the blog post, due to operational shortcomings and the fallout from the attempted Frog Nation takeover, the company is being restructured.
Frog Nation was a group of multichain Defi projects led by Daniele Sestagalli and other contributors. The Frog nation took over SushiSwap in January as part of a campaign to aid the Defi project.
SushiSwap has disclosed that it has undergone a restructure, with a strong and loyal crew retained, and new members have been added. In addition to appointing an external operations advisor, it claimed to have rekindled critical stakeholder ties.
Across all departments, a compensation system has been devised and a legal framework for SushiDAO has also been recommended.
The focus is now on the team’s long-term commitments, executive and leadership recruitment processes, enhanced financial transparency as well as checks via committee and community supervision, and adoption of the Sushi 2.0 interface.
SushiSwap has offered a proposal that is broken into three steps as part of the restructuring plans.
Retaining talent throughout the engineering, design, business development, marketing, community engagement, shōyu, operations, and advisory functional spectrum is the first step.
The second step is to establish a formal compensation committee to oversee all budgeting matters for openness and accountability.
The third step is to begin a formal executive and leadership search with the implementation of the plan in order to complement the team that has been retained.
With a four-year time horizon, the plan proposes allocating 6 million SUSHI to existing contributors, potential hiring, and impending project strategy and leadership.
SushiSwap will continue to work on upcoming releases such as Trident AMM 2.0, MultiChain launch, Shoyu redesign, limit orders, Sushi guard, etc.
After the protocol’s core contributors 0xMaki, Mudit Gupta, and CTO Joseph Delong left the project, it was anticipated to lead Sushi back on track by taking over top-level management. However, as it was discovered that Michael Patrin was one of the project’s leaders, the entire merger fell apart.
Patrin was involved in the exit scandal of the QuadrigaCX cryptocurrency exchange. The community left the Frogs nation project right away.
These unfortunate events concerning SushiSwap, as well as the apparent absence of a viable solution, prompted the team to begin working on the restructure.
SushiSwap’s choice to restructure was favorably received by the community. In the comments area below the blog article, some community members looked to be extremely pleased with the idea and roadmap.
