"For the sake of clarity, I am stepping down as a member of the Monero Core Team effective immediately. I have not really had any active role in the Core Team in many years, and this is in line with my stated goals since 2018.
As part of this, any remaining privileges or access I have will be handed over or revoked. It is my hope that it can be handed over to new workgroups in the coming weeks / months, instead of the Core Team continuing in a highly centralised model."

End of an era. Monero had seen many people come and go, and many more will come. What matters is that the project endures.
"The sietch at the desert rim was Liet's, was Kynes's, was Stilgar's, was Muad'Dib's, and, once more, was Stilgar's. The Naibs one by one sleep in the sand, but the sietch endures."
