"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; and each in their time plays many parts." - William Shakespeare"

• DAO Ops Stewards: Delegated representatives of the DAO Council and Foundation who are responsible for assisting with the composition of proposals, ensuring compliance with the governance process, facilitating council operations, record keeping, and supporting the foundation director in general administration of the DAO.

• Space Operators: Curators/promotors/gallerists who have been elected by the community to operate a SuperRare Space.

• Community Editors: Designated community members responsible for curating Space applications prior to review by the $RARE Council and public voting in the Space Race

• RareDAO: any individual (or collection of individuals) holding $RARE curation tokens who, in total, comprise the SuperRare DAO. Responsible for voting on network parameters eligible for public governance - including Space proposals, artist onboarding criteria, network commissions/fees and the ongoing expenditure of treasury funds held by the DAO.

*Note: Officers of the $RARE Governance Council serve as independent directors who represent the interests of both token holders AND the SuperRare Network. While we expect democratic participation of token holders to regularly align with the core interests of the Network, in cases where a vote of token holders may conflict with the long-term health of the Network, Council members are expected to exercise independent judgement as necessary to promote outcomes in the best interest of all stakeholders in the SuperRare Network.
