On the 12th of October, the ssv.network Core Team was excited to announce its Community Empowerment Program. This program is part of a broader push to support SSV DAO members’ governance efforts. It builds on work done by the SSV DAO to delegate more voting power to active community members through the Karma vote delegation.
The overarching aim is to establish DVT as a community-owned public good through sound stewardship by community delegates. To this end, the ownership of SSV smart contracts has been transferred to the DAO multi-sig, and the initialization of the SSV Foundation has been proposed. Each of these steps is essential to reach this shared North Star.
Today, the Core Team is delighted to announce the community members who have shaped the ssv.network community and DAO. In doing so, they have reached the top of the Karma leaderboard. Today, these community members will become Empowered Community Members, amplifying their voice and decision-making authority.
Those that are marked with “/” have no name on Karma.
The next round of Empowered Community Members will be announced on the 24th of January 2024. The Core Team encourages everyone to participate in community activities and get ranked higher to benefit from the Community Empowerment Program and shape the future of the ssv.network!

SSV Labs is happy to announce a small change to the Community Empowerment Program, which was enacted on October 2nd, 2023.
From the current batch of Empowered Community Members and Empowered Prominent community members, i.e., from May 30th, 2024, SSV Labs will streamline future batches of the Community Empowerment program so that they take place in 6-month intervals, as opposed to the previous 3-month period.
We believe this will align with the trends in the community’s pace of achieving higher ranks through the ssv.network Karma delegation board. Also, this will give the highest-ranked community members twice as long to pursue the strategic initiatives they choose to implement.
Thank you @RobertD .Personally, I think the core team voting policy could be leveraged for even more community engagement. While I understand the operational overhead, I would have kept the interval and even increased the number of delegates, e.g., from the new SSV Diver ambassador program.
In any case, do you mind updating the original post?
