The first round closes in two days with the second round beginning the day after. On June 28th, the Special Council and Governance Steward elections will be final and the two winners of each will be announced. This issue includes updates on each election plus other news across the DAO.

ICYMI, I built another page to help you easily find the AIPs approved by the DAO. You can find it by visiting this newsletter publication’s home page and clicking “Secretary Corner” at the top.

Curious what kind of proposals have been approved by the ApeCoin DAO so far? Here's a breakdown by category. As you can see from the chart below, nearly 50% of the approved AIPs have been tools or process changes.

Note: These are not official categories, just my initial attempt at trying to organize them.

Voting for both ends at 6 PM PST on Wednesday 6/21. You can vote on Snapshot here. Below are the results at the time of this publication.

Special Council

Governance Stewards

There was one proposal that completed the voting process last Wednesday. Here is the final result:
