Hydro Committee
The Hydro Committee is a DAO on the DAODAO platform responsible for overseeing liquidity deployments via Hydro. The Hydro committee ensures that liquidity allocations align with Hydro’s risk management framework, governance guidelines, and overall platform sustainability. The committee plays a crucial role in vetting bids, monitoring deployments, and enforcing security measures to protect liquidity providers and the broader Cosmos Hub community.
While governance decisions are ultimately determined by Hydro voters, the committee serves as an expert advisory body, conducting due diligence on projects and making recommendations based on performance and security metrics. Committee members specialize in different aspects of Hydro’s operations, including whitelist management, auction oversight, security monitoring, and ecosystem growth.
Below is a list of current committee members, their roles, and responsibilities. For more details on the committee’s governance decisions, visit the Hydro Committee DAO on DAODAO here.
