Former MakerDAO and Chronicle Labs contributor Marc-André Dumas joins The Graph Council, reinforcing leadership across protocol governance and treasury management

Dumas covered MakerDAO revenue analysis during the surplus buffer debates, then Chronicle Labs where the oracle stack secures $5B+ of Maker/Sky collateral. Graph Council picks him up as Horizon Mainnet rolls out Q1 2026, with query volume down 15.9% QoQ and indexer unit economics decoupling from the 15,087 active subgraphs. GRT issuance math has to account for Base flipping Ethereum as the dominant query chain — having someone with Maker-grade scar tissue on collateral rebalancing is overdue.
