The 8th Execution | Eco-development Funds Community Management Plan

In April 2021, the IRIS Foundation launched a new Ecosystem Development Program, which included the Eco-Development Funds Community Management Plan. The Foundation will undelegate about 300 million IRIS gradually, and then transfer these assets into the Community Pool in batches.

Through on-chain governance proposal submission, every community member can co-manage all assets in the community pool for the purpose of enhancing the ecosystem.

The 8th execution of this plan has been completed by the end of November: https://irishub.iobscan.io/#/tx?txHash=B6CA72B1A83947A92F933A9D539EB321685A936C7651F1BBB55DD2753B4D8AFB
