rubric v1.7.0

Team public accountability surface

Sushi (SushiSwap) — v2 + v3 + Trident + BentoBox/Kashi + SushiXSwap's assessment for RD-F-112 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Current leadership has meaningful accountability surface: Jared Grey (LinkedIn, Twitter, CEO history at EONS/Bitfineon, consulting record); Matthew Lilley (LinkedIn uk.linkedin.com/in/matthew-r-lilley, GitHub @matthewlilley, CTO nomination coverage). Original founders (Chef Nomi, 0xMaki) have zero to thin verifiable public trail — pseudonymous, no LinkedIn, no conference attendance confirmed by identity. Ops/Treasury multisig signers (5 + 6 EOAs) are not individually identified publicly. Overall accountability surface is moderate for current layer, weak for founding/governance layer.

Methodology #

Count the number of verifiable public trails per team member (LinkedIn with employment history, conference talks, prior employer records, GitHub with aged contribution history).
