PGov Delegate

Introduction

We are a team of dedicated governance enthusiasts who have been in the governance space for over four years. Our team were some of the first members involved in defi governance and we want to apply what we have learned over the years to 1inch.

Driver and Core Values:

  • Growth: Our decisions are primarily focused on the growth of the protocol. This often results in how to spend money efficiently, but even more importantly and objecting for unreasonable spends and knowing when to vote no.
  • Transparency: Clear communication with votes and explanations of reasoning, and an equivalent demand for proposals to do the same. Too often we see thousands, if not millions, being rolled up together and glossed over during proposals.
  • Accountability: Too often once a decision is done, having proper accountability becomes an afterthought. Whether it’s a DAO promise or a grant or a new program, once a DAO votes something in, we forget about it. Our goal with PGov is to both continue to check in on these decisions as well as ensure that there are proper channels set up to ensure accountability.

Conflicts of Interest:

If situations arise, we will abstain from a vote, and clearly state the conflict on the forums.

[1IP-92] Optimizing Treasury Yield via Lending (Re-run)

We voted Yes: In favor of putting idle treasury USDC to work by allocating 2,000,000 USDC into the Aave V3 USDC market, a low-risk and liquid venue for earning yield on otherwise idle stablecoins.

[1IP-93] 1inch DAO Aqua Revenue Stream Incubator

We voted Yes: In favor of standing up the Aqua Revenue Stream Incubator, which deploys up to $400,000 to seed teams building 1inch Aqua strategies, with the Grant Reviewers and core team gating which strategies receive funding.

[1IP-94] Renewal of Engagement of MME as External Counsel to the 1inch DAO

We voted Yes: In favor of renewing MME as external legal counsel on a $15,000 as-needed retainer; continued access to counsel for dispute resolution and compliance is sensible, and the as-needed structure keeps the cost contained.

[1IP-95] Dispute Resolution Proposal: 1inch DAO and HWLT

We voted Yes: In favor of resolving the outstanding HWLT matter as the ERA Wallet team completes the source-code publication obligations from its prior grant, closing out the dispute on the agreed terms.

[1IP-96] 1inch events Grant Proposal 2026

We voted Yes: In favor of the 2026 events grant supporting 1inch’s presence at conferences, hackathons, and community events; this is established ecosystem and developer-growth spend with a clear track record.

[1IP-97] 1inch Public Policy & Regulatory Engagement Grant Proposal 2026

We voted Yes: In favor of continuing the public policy and regulatory engagement program; proactive engagement across the US, EU, and UAE is increasingly important groundwork for a protocol of 1inch’s scale.

[1IP-98] 2026 DAO Governance Operations and Support

We voted Yes: In favor of funding dedicated governance operations for 2026; proposal lifecycle management, delegate coordination, and compliance monitoring are necessary functions, and resourcing them keeps the DAO’s process running end to end.

[1IP-99] 1inch x ETHGlobal events Grant Proposal 2026-2027

We voted Yes: In favor of the ETHGlobal events grant; the hackathon series is a direct, measurable developer-acquisition channel and a reasonable use of ecosystem funds.

[1IP 100] Recognized Delegate Program Renewal

We voted Yes: In favor of renewing the Recognized Delegate Program; the updated performance tiers, stricter participation metrics, and the five-delegate funding cap are reasonable improvements that keep the program accountable while continuing to professionalize 1inch governance. Disclosure: PGov is a recognized delegate and a potential beneficiary of this program.

1IP-[101]: Request to and Authorisation of 1inch Foundation as Aqua Incubator Administrator

We voted Yes: This is a narrow administrative and legal authorization rather than a change to how the Aqua Incubator operates. It designates the 1inch Foundation as the off-chain administrator so the program established under 1IP-93 can actually execute enforceable grant agreements, run KYC and KYB on grantees, and pursue remedies such as audit, termination, or clawback if a team breaches its obligations. The substance of the program is unchanged, since Anode continues to run it day to day, the Grant Reviewers retain funding and milestone decisions by majority vote, and all funds remain in the DAO Operations Multi-Sig and flow directly to grantees. We are comfortable supporting this because the DAO cannot sign contracts itself, the Foundation already acts as its off-chain legal representative with established KYC and KYB infrastructure, and formalizing that authority closes an accountability gap left open by 1IP-93 without expanding spend or discretion.
