Shutter has taken the Protocol Guild 1% Pledge, following an onchain vote by Shutter DAO 0x36 to allocate 1% of the SHU token supply to support the people who maintain Ethereum’s core protocol. The tokens will vest over four years through Protocol Guild’s mechanism and go directly to core contributors.
Shutter is excited to support the work of Ethereum’s core contributors, who keep the network stable and secure. We hope this pledge helps provide more consistent, long-term funding and inspires others to take the 1% Pledge.
