As of June 11, 2022 at block height 1184530, the Elastos ecosystem’s third annual Cyber Republic Council elections have come to a close. As in previous years, ecosystem growth and market trends have introduced new community teams, projects, and organizations to the ecosystem, and the newest rendition of the CR Council very much reflects the past, present, and future of the Web3 space and Elastos ecosystem alike.
This year, the Elastos community voted to retain a number of experienced council members from previous terms, and added a group of new faces and eager organizations to the mix. The 2022/2023 CR Council features Elastos Foundation members, community developers, business development and marketing interests, NFTs, DeFi, making for a diverse group capable of making strong decisions on behalf of the Elastos community.
Cassie Zhang, Cyber Republic’s returning Secretary General had this to say about the new term, “The 3rd CR Council takes office at a critical juncture. Elastos’ core infrastructure is nearing completion, and is prepared to support new ecosystem projects. The previous CR Council made bold contributions to marketing and other public promotional efforts. It is my wish to see this year’s Council both advance existing marketing efforts and allocate the necessary resources to attract and better support new and innovative ecosystem projects.”
