Slate Title
Shutter Delegate Impact Pilot + AI Agent Bounty
Slate Summary
A 12 week pilot to reward delegates for measurable ecosystem impact across Governance Participation, Idea Origination, and Business Development / Shutter Integrations.
Slate Description
Shutter is open-source cryptographic infrastructure for fairer blockchain systems. Its threshold encryption protocol helps protect users from malicious MEV, vote manipulation, and information asymmetry by keeping sensitive information encrypted until it’s ready to be revealed.
This mission is especially important as Shutter advances encrypted mempool work through EIP-8184 / LUCID. But for Shutter to succeed as a public good, the ecosystem needs more than technical development. It needs active delegates who help governance function, generate useful ideas, and create paths for advancing Shutter’s adoption.
This slate proposes the Shutter Delegate Impact Pilot + AI Agent Bounty:
SHUTTER DELEGATE IMPACT PROGRAM
A pilot program to reward existing Shutter delegates with a prior history of participation for measurable impact across three pillars:
1.Governance Participation
• Focus: Voting and posting rationale.
2. Idea Origination
• Focus: New proposals and ideas posted on forum.
3. Business Development / Integrations
• Focus: Ecosystems introductions and adoption pathways for Shutter’s tech.
If selected, the final reward mechanics will be designed to be simple, objective, and based on verifiable outputs. The goal is to minimize subjective judgment while rewarding delegates who help move Shutter Network forward.
POIDH AI AGENT BOUNTIES
This slate also funds POIDH bounties to build AI agents that help delegates create ecosystem impact. These bounties should support working prototypes, open-source outputs, and tools that help expand Shutter’s use across relevant dApps.
Proposed bounty themes include:
1. LUCID Monitor Agent
Tracks EIP-8184 / LUCID updates and produces short action briefs.
2. Public Goods Narrative Agent
Turns Shutter’s public-goods work into actionable ecosystem updates.
3. Scout Agent
Identifies dApps where Shutter’s encryption features could be useful.
Note
Axia Network is the slate author and sponsor. Axia will not receive funds from this slate. The intended outcome is public infrastructure, stronger delegate participation, and more integration opportunities for the Shutter ecosystem.
Future iterations may expand the program to scout and onboard new delegates.
