PROJECT TEASER

Bankless DAOstewards is a meta-governance group from BanklessDAO. We aim to encourage good governance in the DAO space by expressing Bankless values and foster a collaborative environment for the space to grow.

SUMMARY

Project Description

DAOStewards act as professional delegates who help in the day-to-day administration and coordination of DAOs we partner with. We are currently delegates at SAFEDAO and EulerDAO. We are also scoping our engagement to VitaDAO as a part of their recognised delegates program.

Each delegation consists of 2 leads supported by Governance analysts.

Protocol Leads Tokens delegated Budget
Arbitrum jengajojo, LiviuC 200k+ 2000 BANK/lead/week
Euler @Baer.eth @jengajojo 2k+ 2000 BANK/lead/week
Optimism jengajojo, thinkdecade 1k+ 2000 BANK/lead/week
VitaDAO @jengajojo @cryptodad 0 2000 BANK/lead/week
Safe @links @thinkDecade 48k+ 2000 BANK/lead/week

The long-term sustainability model for the group is to mine governance rewards by

  1. Making a compelling case for delegators to delegate to us
  2. Actively involving ourselves in governance
