Our membership has concluded its latest quarterly audit of funded members as of Nov 19 2025. This 14th consecutive update reaffirms our institution’s consistency and ability to self-regulate.
The member registry now includes a number of new contributor accounts as well as new alumni, and weight changes; creating a representative body of the developers and maintainers who work on client implementations, research, and upgrade delivery.
Protocol Guild’s membership is now 184, with a net increase of 8 (+4.5%) members from 176 of last quarter. This quarter, the membership update was processed onchain via Protocol Guild’s new Agora-based DAO contracts. Readers will find a comprehensive list of the changeset below.
