The proposal to create the Compound Foundation has been months in the making and is now set to clear 1M votes in support, with none yet opposed. This is a pivotal moment in Compound’s history where the longstanding gap left by the Labs team can be filled by a competent and protocol-aligned entity. tally.xyz/gov/compound/p…

In June 2020, the Compound protocol was decentralized with the launch of COMP and the full transfer of control to the community through governance. As a foundational piece of decentralized finance infrastructure, Compound is designed to exist in perpetuity—open, autonomous, and available to all. As one of the first protocols to fully decentralize, the approach was primitive and the territory was uncharted. While the community has grown and matured, it has done so without a core operational pillar—specifically, a foundation—something that has since become a standard support structure for many DeFi protocols. Over time, the protocol has adopted critical support systems for areas like risk (via @gauntlet_xyz) and security (via @openzeppelin). However, in the absence of a foundation, consistent and clear leadership within the community has been lacking, making even routine tasks unnecessarily complex. With the upcoming development of Compound v4 and growing engagement in the community forums, along with the progressive decentralization of the Compound ecosystem and the pullback of involvement from Compound Labs, we've seen the growing need for more consistent structure. In response, we believe it's time to explore the creation of a Compound Foundation. A foundation, entirely separate from Labs or any other existing entity, would provide clarity and continuity—serving as a consistent leadership and coordination layer for the community. It would support key coordination functions across the community, another service provider. We've seen the benefits of this model in other ecosystems, such as the @uniswapFND. We look forward to further discussion in the community around the idea of a Compound Foundation in the forums. Labs stands ready to assist the community, if that assistance would be helpful.

In the next two weeks, the House of Representatives will vote on the most important piece of crypto legislation to date: FIT21. We’ve long called for regulatory clarity that protects consumers and innovation and the FIT21 Act will do just that. Americans have embraced digital assets, but the current regulatory approach too often limits innovation and privacy without actually addressing the solutions needed to protect consumers or tackle illicit activity. FIT21 will help stamp out scams, ensure oversight of crypto exchanges, and protect American consumers by implementing strict rules on crypto trading. FIT21 has bipartisan support because it tackles these issues. I encourage everyone who believes in the power of blockchain technology to support this legislation. The best thing to do is get in touch with your local representative and tell them to support FIT21. @standwithcrypto offers helpful resources to find and contact your local representative here: standwithcrypto.org/action/email
