Over the last year, we've been working as a functionally autonomous group within the @ethereum Foundation, exploring our future governance mechanisms and preparing for independence. We are thankful to the EF for fully supporting us in this exploration phase. 🌱

We believe that Ethereum requires dedicated individuals focused on its core infrastructure, working free from commercial pressures, and supported by long-term funding.

Argot has an explicitly non-profit and open-source mission, and aims to be a balancing force against overly finance-driven entities in the space, whilst also serving as a positive example of values-aligned governance models.

Financial and organizational transparency is one of our core values. Hence, we'll publish budgets, roadmaps, and details on our governance framework. We will be seeded with a grant from the Ethereum Foundation and aim to transition into our own legal entity in 2025.
