Zora has been and continues to be a massive advocate for the ecosystem and is insanely ingrained among the various communities that have emerged on Blast. I think he would make a great addition to the council.

I second this. Anyone who continues to show interest and dedication beyond TGE deserves a voice at the table. Many of us are believers of Blast in the long term and those of us who wish to dedicate their time and energy to seeing Blast become a premier and heavily trafficked L2 deserve to participate at the most impactful level.

So what’s the process here? Ive read the docs awhile back, and it sounds like:

Proposal happens. I guess there is a wait/comment period. (But nothing can really be done.)

It gets pushed thru with the Council voting…

Then once/if approved, the BLAST holders can Veto it, which in this case would be unwise… but otherwise, that’s really all that happens. Yes?

Anyone who is at all engaged with Blast would be an upgrade.
