The Tezos blockchain project may finally get underway after two board members of the Tezos Foundation, including its founder and president Johann Gevers, voluntarily stepped down and were replaced by Tezos community members, according to a press release published Feb. 22.
Newly appointed Ryan Jesperson and Michel Mauny join Lars Haussmann, appointed to the board on Jan. 31, right as the foundation prepares to launch the Tezos network.
“To serve the best interests of the Tezos Project, Johann Gevers and Diego Olivier Fernandez Pons have voluntarily offered to resign from the Foundation Board. They are committed to the success of the Tezos project and will continue to support its development towards a bright future. We thank both of them for their service”, stated Jesperson in the press release.
