While this approach aimed to promote diversity across the ecosystem, over time, expectations from users and partners increased, Schor said. <\/p>\n<p>The co-founder explained that some specific challenges included \u201cgovernance gaps\u201d due to the foundation\u2019s limited involvement over operational tasks as well as \u201cmisaligned incentives\u2019  that risked \u201ca divergence in strategic priorities to optimize for this revenue model.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To migrate their accounts to the new interface, users must accept Safe Labs&#8217; Terms &#038; Conditions. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis shift establishes a direct link between the operations of Safe{Wallet}, the Foundation, and by extension the SafeDAO,\u201d Schor said. \u201cIt aligns incentives, governance, and funding, making it possible to invest at the scale required to meet today\u2019s expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leading the transition is Rahul Rumalla, the recently-appointed CEO of Safe Labs.
