Balancer core team logs its last regular working day

Balancer core contributor Marcus Hardt (Marcus_Balancer) said the team's last regular working day was October 31, marking the start of the protocol's wind-down phase. Some team members had been with Balancer since its earliest days.

The team will maintain only the minimum infrastructure needed to support the exit process, with low-risk permissions gradually revoked between November and December 2026. Pools remain in withdrawals-only mode and users can still exit positions at any time as the wind-down proceeds.
