Pausing DAO Voting to Focus on Jupiter & Jupiverse @JupiterExchange stands at the edge of an inflection point. The window to define the future of DeFi is open, but it won’t stay open for long. Right now, we have the best product suite (Jup dot ag), the best community (Jupiverse), and the best vision for the future (Web4). But in this critical period, with more opportunity and competition than ever before, we must be laser-focused on growth. Through new products like Jupiter Lend, new users onboarded through Jupiter Mobile, and new platforms like jupnet (and more!). Over the last 16 months, the @jup_dao has been essential to bootstrapping the community, activating hundreds of contributors, and shaping the direction of the Jupiter ecosystem via a range of key social innovations - including ASR, DWGs and verified voter feedback. Without the DAO, the Jupiverse would be nowhere near as vibrant and dynamic as it currently is. But what got us here isn’t going to get us where we need to go next. Recently, one thing has become clear: the current DAO structure isn’t working as intended. We hear the complaints. We see the breakdown in trust. We feel the perpetual FUD cycle that grows with every vote. Instead of the DAO, holders, and team working in cohesion to push the product, platform and community forward, we are stuck in a negative feedback loop. Over the critical next few months, we need all stakeholders - the team, the community, token holders, and contributors - to be locked in and aligned. For that reason, we will pause DAO voting through the end of 2025. Doing so will let us all focus on execution, speed, and growth while we rethink how the DAO could best operate. In addition, there will be no new JUP emissions from the DAO treasury this year (except for previously approved WGs), removing a major source of unhappiness. Then, in 2026 we will return to governance with a fresh approach that unifies, rather than divides. The focus will be on creating a more acceptable way of leveraging capital to grow the Jupiverse to draw in talent, ensure accountability, and move the space forward. We believe that the gains from this change - renewed product focus, speed of execution on community growth, and a fresh approach to the DAO - will be massive. /// Growing the Jupiter Platform, Philosophy, & Productivity Jupiter’s strengths have always been anchored in an unrelenting commitment to product quality and community engagement. With this push, we will be able to focus on 3 key things: - Growing Jupiter Products And Platforms - Driving the Jupiverse forward as a productive global community - Empowering the JUP community to create value together /// Logistics of The DAO Voting Pause ASR will continue, though now will be available to claim for all stakers. It will be extended through Q4 2025 at the same rate of 50m $JUP/quarter, as per the Jupuary vote earlier this year. All previously funded Work Groups will continue their operations as before, funded by the DAO treasury. But no new DAO-funded Work Groups will be created, and no additional $JUP emissions will be created. The Community Reserve will not be touched until governance votes begin again in 2026. The Jupiter team will fund any and all community growth efforts out of their own operational treasury. The Litterbox Trust will remain untouched until 2027, as previously promised. jupSOL revenues will continue to accrue to the DAO treasury as well. DAO voting will return in 2026 with a fresh approach. We’ll use the coming months to work with community members on the right processes and approaches that enable the DAO to be more productive. In the interim, we’ll continue to fund talented contributors from around the world and take feedback for new mechanisms for governance in the Feedback Forums. /// Make Jupiter Bullish Again To repeat: this is not an end to governance, but rather a pause. The conversations and energy voters have put into the Jupiverse have been immensely valuable. We love our voters, and are excited for governance to return next year as a powerful engine of alignment, growth, and value creation. Ultimately, Jupiter is here to usher in the creation of the Global Unified Market, to aggregate everything onchain, and to build the greatest global community this world has ever seen. Now is the time to accelerate across all three dimensions. More speed, more focus, and more growth until the entire world is repeating the same three words: Just Use Jupiter.
