Team public accountability surface
Venus Protocol'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 #
Brad Harrison has high accountability surface: 5+ documented conference appearances (Consensus 2025, EFDevcon Nov 2024, Crypto Valley Conference 2024, CoinMarketCap Capital Conference), YouTube video interviews, X account @bradherenow, LinkedIn. Joselito Lizarondo: Medium blog, X @joselito, public AMAs. However, the broader Venus Labs development team has thin public accountability surface — only one GitHub org public member (@therealemjy / Maxime Julian) identified. No individual developer LinkedIn profiles for the broader Venus Labs team were surfaced via public search. Yellow because leadership accountability is solid but development team surface is opaque beyond CEO level.
