About cp0x
cp0x is a crypto community and infrastructure operator active since 2016, working across three areas: validation and operations, governance participation, and education for ordinary users. It runs validators on Ethereum, Monad and Symbiosis, acts as a sequencer on Aztec, provides indexing for The Graph, operates as a restaking operator in EigenLayer and Symbiotic, and curates three Mellow vaults, one of them connected to Symbiotic.
On the community side it votes in governance across more than 20 DAOs and is one of the multisig signers for projects such as Yearn and SpiralDAO; its public-goods work has received community support through Gitcoin Grants and Optimism retroactive grants. It also builds permissionless front ends for several DeFi protocols, so users can call contracts without relying on official interfaces, and organises staking and delegation entries by network with parameter notes and risk disclosures that let users check validator performance.
In April 2026 Lido's Delegate Oversight Committee published its Q1 2026 report: cp0x voted 5/5 on Snapshot and 1/1 on Aragon for 100% participation and shared a $75,000 quarterly pool with six other delegates, about $10,700 each.
Through 2026 cp0x kept posting vote rationales on the Arbitrum governance forum, opposing an extra 100 million ARB allocation to the USDG growth programme and citing its study of 58 spending decisions at Lido, Aave, Sky and Uniswap between 2023 and 2025, only 14 of which set public metrics. Its delegation page lists 233,275 ARB, 142,750 OBOL, about 2.09 million SKY and 17,523 COW delegated, and it reports roughly $15.2 million in extra user value on Hyperliquid (280,000 HYPE) and $250,000 on Lighter.
cp0x will extend delegation across more than 20 DAOs including Lido, Arbitrum, Optimism and Uniswap, refine one-click delegation and voting-rationale tools, and use its research to discipline DAO spending and incentive design.
