Submitted by: Astar Community Council Member AstarHood Date: 2025/04/24 ## Summary This post serves as an official proposal from the Astar Community Council to delist StarSwap from the Astar Network dApp Staking Portal. The proposal outlines the rationale behind the suggested delisting and invites the community to review and provide feedback in accordance with governance procedures. The primary reason for this proposal is due to inactivity, violation of community standards, and failure to meet performance criteria. **Project Information** - Project: StarSwap - dApp Category: Utility - dApp Staking Tier: N/A - Month Listed: Sep 2022 - Website: [https://starswap.net/](https://starswap.net/) - Listing Proposal: [StarSwap - 2022/04/23](https://forum.astar.network/t/starswap-builders-program-application/3106) - Contract Address: [0x8489f4554790f5a103f2b0398537eaee68b73884](https://astar.blockscout.com/address/0x8489f4554790f5a103f2b0398537eaee68b73884) ### ❌ Reason for Delisting Proposal The Astar Community Council recommends the delisting of StarSwap for the following reasons: - Inactivity: The project has not demonstrated any development activity or meaningful community engagement for the several months, indicating possible abandonment. - Non-compliance: Failure to comply with the [Code of Conduct](https://drive.google.com/file/d/17Zto7yU0rVUWEA6hyjSAx0mVmw2lZCAk/view) guidelines and expectations set forth by the Astar Community Council, including but not limited to: - Lack of Value Contribution: The project has not demonstrated meaningful contribution to the Astar ecosystem in terms of TVL, community participation, or on-chain activity. ### 📊 Supporting Evidence - Last post on the Astar forum: [2023/04/26](https://forum.astar.network/t/introducing-star-ai-first-ai-project-of-dot-is-on-astar-network/4599) - Last post on X: [2025/02/21](https://x.com/StarSwap/status/1892841507310207031) - Invalid Discord Link: [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/dqyJQ7gUkb) - Failure to fill out the [ecosystem wide survey](https://forum.astar.network/t/dapp-staking-assessment-survey/8030) and respond to the outreach the council has done and respond to [our outreach](https://forum.astar.network/t/starswap-dex-is-now-live/3787/25). ### 📢 Community Engagement & Feedback The Council encourages all community members and stakeholders to provide their input on this proposal within the next 4 days.

Thanks for the proposal. StarSwap started offering AI-related products at one point, but unfortunately I have not seen any further activity since then. There seems to be no response from them and I agree with your decision to delist. ---

I also agree with the delisting. However, I want to check on GitHub whether StarSwap has truly halted development, but it seems GitHub access is provided only to council members. > [@StarSwap - Builders Program Application](https://forum.astar.network/t/starswap-builders-program-application/3106/24): > > Hi @moonme thank you for sharing it slight_smile It’s done through an LGE contract, totally trustless, we have no role in it once the contract is deployed, automatically transferred to create liquidity. The contracs for this will be open to all after our launch (please check the github repo provided for the council members) in fact we really recommend other projects to use it (happy to help with the setup as well as this framework promotes community focused, transparent launch of projects - a… Have council members reviewed the GitHub commit history or similar details? ---

I tried to use Starswap ages ago and I haven’t seen any update or social post in the last 6 months so I believe it’s better to delist the project from dApp Staking ---

StarSwap is inactive since a while. I support this proposal. ---

The proposal is detailed and comprehensive, very good. If I understand correctly, from what I’ve observed on social networks, StarSwap hasn’t had many updates for quite a while. I’m not sure if they’re developing something or if the project has been put on hold, though there’s a high chance it might be the latter. Anyway, I fully support this proposal =) ---

Thank you for this proposal, we can not continue to allow pariah projects to continue to feed on dApp Staking without contributing in any way to the ecosystem. ---
