We are AstarHood, an anonymous voice within the ecosystem, here to bring the cause of fairness, transparency, and value creation in the Astar Network. Inspired by the legendary Robin Hood, my mission is to ensure that the dApp Staking system remains a powerful tool for innovation and growth—reserved for projects that bring genuine value to the ASTR token and our broader ecosystem. We will start with dApp Staking but will further build out our involvement.
Our Mission
The Astar Network has always been a beacon for supporting developers and their dApp projects. However, with the upcoming launch of Soneium and the strategic direction of the Astar Foundation, it is clear that now is the time to refine and elevate the dApp Staking system.
By initiating community-driven proposals to delist underperforming or inactive dApps, we can:
- Showcase the true potential of dApp Staking to attract high-value projects.
- Build a system that rewards those who bring value to the ASTR token and aligns with the long-term interests of ASTR token holders.
- Set a higher standard for participation in the Astar ecosystem, ensuring that only dedicated builders thrive here.
Why Now?
Maarten, the Head of Astar Foundation, has already emphasized the need to cleanse the dApp Staking system. However, this transformation cannot be a top-down mandate. Instead, it must be organic and community-driven, reflecting the collective will of all stakeholders in our ecosystem.
As AstarHood, we will initiate discussions, present data-driven proposals, and advocate for fair evaluations of all dApps. Our goal is to ensure that this initiative remains transparent, inclusive, and focused on building a stronger, more resilient network.
How You Can Help
This mission isn’t just about delisting; it’s about reshaping the future of Astar. I invite all community members who care but don’t have the time to look at everything. Delegate your ASTR to us so you can help emphasize our voice for a better Astar ecosystem.
