Hello, thank you all for your initial contributions,
Obviously, before taking on any expenses, we need to know what factually belongs to the DAO. I see this proposal as a final step, allowing us to clarify and take stock (know what belongs to the DAO, who manages it, and at what costs).
In my mind, "Belonging to the DAO" means that a project doesn't belong to a single person, but that it belongs to the community. We can therefore summarize by saying that the DAO could have decision-making rights over this project (we will still need to organize a functional decision-making process for these projects, but that's not the subject of this suggestion at the moment).
I think the issue of licenses will probably vary on a case-by-case basis depending on the use cases and each project. But a project that belongs to the DAO is a project that is managed by the community (therefore code that is manipulable by everyone, hosted on the community's GitHub).
All projects that are currently managed by realT on realtoken.network (such as YAM, RMM, Bridge, voting application, REG claim....) are excluded from this proposal because they are managed by realT for the moment (It might also be preferable to start with simple use cases with community applications).
All personal projects (Pit'sBI, CrypT'Alloc, Ehpst...) are also outside the scope of this proposal. Furthermore, these different projects will be rewarded via the community budget and via the Activity NFT.
In this proposal, I am referring to all functional community projects that are deployed online under the DAO's domain name (realtoken.community):
And other statistics projects (https://stats.realtoken.community/) and MAP projects...
This list is likely not exhaustive.
Indeed, I was thinking of @Sigri to help us evaluate the costs (and possibly describe what the different providers are for hosting, for example).
To respond to @DRKTT , it seems to me that the NFT activity aims to reward everything that happens outside the ecosystem (writing articles on the web, partner YouTube videos, projects developed personally for DAO members, etc.). Here, we're more in the case of the NFT Citizen (citizen contributions to the ecosystem), but i think that's not the right way to reward with an NFT for me (because the initial NFT budget wasn't created to cover the DAO's various expenses, it seems, and it rewards in REG and not in USDC).
To respond to @PhilP , I'm not certain that the 4.3 million REG from the community budget are intended to cover the DAO's future expenses (but rather to reward past actions already taken within the ecosystem). Furthermore, how will we compensate people who pay for external services once the community budget is fully utilized?
This raises two questions for me that need to be addressed:
- In what form should we compensate people who pay for services (USDC or REG)?
- From which budgets should this compensation come?
Personal opinion: in my mind, the goal was to pay out USDC directly from the DAO treasury (and task RealT every six months to make a transaction to the different wallets of the identified people).
