Meet the updated Stacks CABs 🟧
Consideration Advisory Boards review every Stacks Improvement Proposal (SIP) before it goes to a community vote. This fall we welcomed new members to the Economics, Governance and Technical CABs, alongside returning members who’ve carried Stacks governance for years.
Meet the members 🧵👇
4/5 Thank you to departing members Matt O’Connor, @LeeorShimron, Pieter Aerts, @whoabuddydev, @JulietOberding, @Orlando_btc, Harold Davis and @BowTiedRadone. Your reviews shaped some of the most important SIPs in Stacks history. 🙏

September was a major month for Stacks.
Bitcoin Staking went live. CAB membership entered its next rotation.
And new governance tools shipped through Zero Authority.
Three updates that strengthen how Stacks grows and coordinates 🔽
Stacks is refreshing the Economic, Governance and Tech CABs.
The goal is to bring in new contributors and strengthen groups with lighter membership.
Rotations are expected to be finalized in early to mid October.
Bitcoin Staking is live with institutions bonding 250 BTC to earn self custodial Bitcoin yield.
Bitcoin Staking on Stacks is officially LIVE.
@UTXOmgmt, @21shares, @HashKeyCloud, @syphercapital, and @FireblocksHQ are the inaugural participants in the Genesis Bond, the first institutional bonding period.
Institutional Bitcoin now earns native BTC yield while staying on Bitcoin L1.
The Stacks Genesis Bond, launching ~September 10, will mark the start of Bitcoin Staking.
Institutions such as @UTXOmgmt, @21shares and @HashKeyCloud will be part of the initial cohort.
Bitcoin is becoming a productive asset on Stacks.
Self-nomination for the Stacks Consideration Advisory Board (CAB) is open.
CABs are the expert groups that review and vet every SIP before it moves forward.
Several long-serving members have said they would like to rotate out.
Self-nominate: stacks.foundation/cab-nomina…
Stacks Foundation priorities through year-end start with governance.
Several CAB members are ready to rotate out after long terms, so self-nomination for CAB groups is now open.
A SIP on updated Steering and CAB bylaws (term limits, nominations, alternates) is coming in the next few weeks.
