Lazy Summer Governance Recap [May 2025]

Let’s dive into the highlights:

Governance News and Builds in Focus:

As we transition into June, our aim shifts again to exploring innovative strategies on our way to $1B TVL and new possible integrations, so we can bring the lazy summer closer to end users. Your continued engagement and feedback are invaluable as we navigate the evolving DeFi landscape together. Shout out all the @Recognized_Delegates for doing the work!

See you on the forum; your friendly green blob.

thank you for your kind words @MasterMojo! I would like to add some metrics to these recaps going forward, if you have any notes for me to improve these, shoot them my way! :melting_face:

Jensei: Metrics are hard for governance; if you want some metrics for governance look into number of delegates (increase or decrease from previous month), Treasury asset balance, Token owners, SUMR delegated (and include %), # of active delegates. I think you could pull numbers easily from your Dune: https://dune.com/lazysummer/lazy-summer-dao-governance

I think something that could be useful to see is a monthly protocol metrics with this:

  • Top 5 vaults for the month and APY (you guys do this weekly now)
  • Deposits for the month (maybe include the largest deposit for the month)
  • TVL (include a % from previous month)
  • Token breakdown (include chains breakdown too)

This is just a start but helps. Id love to help if your interested just reach out!
