"GoodCats Review " – Honoring Top Contributors of the Jupiverse

  JUP Catdets, the vibrant community arm of Jupiter, a leading decentralized trading platform on the Solana blockchain, have kicked off their "GoodCats Review" initiative. This program aims to recognize and reward significant contributors to the "Jupiverse" from November 3, 2023, to November 2, 2024. The announcement, made at 3:27 PM WAT on Saturday, marks a milestone in Jupiter’s commitment to fostering a thriving DeFi community.

The review process, detailed in a thread on X, involves evaluating 7,904 submissions based on two key criteria: engagement/consistency and impact. Contributors self-identified into roles such as Content Creators (shaping narratives through frequent posts), Community Contributors (supporting initiatives and engagement), and Developers (building tools for Jupiter’s ecosystem). The initiative underscores Jupiter’s dedication to appreciating those who have driven its growth across platforms like X, Discord, Reddit, and internal channels.  

JUP Catdets have developed a custom review platform to streamline the process, featuring quick toggling between platforms, keyboard-only navigation, and consolidated data for accuracy and efficiency. However, the team noted challenges, including some submissions lacking verifiable evidence or falling outside the specified timeframe. To ensure no deserving contributor is overlooked, a second round of reviews is now underway, reflecting Jupiter’s promise of excellence.  

“GoodCats aren’t guaranteed,significant and regular contributions must be substantiated,” the Catdets emphasized. The playful astronaut cat imagery, featuring orange cats in space suits, symbolizes the community’s spirit and Jupiter’s innovative, community-driven culture within the Solana DeFi ecosystem.  

Jupiter, launched in 2021 as a DEX aggregator, has become a cornerstone of Solana’s DeFi landscape, offering features like limit orders, DCA, and perpetuals. The "GoodCats" program aligns with its mission to make decentralized finance more engaging and rewarding than centralized alternatives, as highlighted in recent reports from CoinGecko and SATS.VIP.  

Community members are invited to provide feedback or ask questions via replies on X or through Jupiter’s official channels, with applications for the program having closed on February 5, 2025. As the Jupiverse continues to grow, this initiative celebrates the dedication of its "Catdets," reinforcing Jupiter’s position as a leader in decentralized community governance.
