Castle Delegate Communication Thread

About Us

Castle is an Arbitrum native research collective, with many of our original members migrating on Day 1 with GMX. We have been strong advocates of the chain and the possibilities its technology unlocks for applications ever since.

We have also been an active Arbitrum DAO delegate and contributor, involved as:

  • Long-Term Incentive Program Pilot (LTIPP) and STIP Bridge advisors, which has provided us with unique insights into incentives programs and how they are perceived both within the DAO and by protocols and users.
  • Member of the Multisig Signer Service (MSS)
  • Contributor to the ARB Staking Rewards Source working group — particularly focusing on licensing
  • Arbitrum-native protocol contributors — the members of our wider collective have held roles at protocols such as GMX, Rysk, Brahma, Pear Protocol, and Perpetual Protocol.
