SUMMARY
Implement a monthly Coordinape round for Guest Passes for the remainder of this season (December and January) instead of a single Coordinape round at the end of the Season.
BACKGROUND
In the Season 2 Specification, we allocated 500,000 BANK for an end-of-season Guest Pass Coordinape round with the following details:
A seasonal Coordinape round of 500,000 $BANK for Guest Pass holders
- Level 2 members must nominate Guest Pass members to participate in this
Coordinape round- Level 1 & 2 may allocate but not receive
- Guest Passes can receive (but not give) → Rewarded solely through existing
DAO members
This stands in contrast to the monthly L1 and L2 rounds.
Originally, the Ops guild suggested a seasonal Guest Pass round because we thought it would be an operational lift to allow one group to allocate and another group to receive. As we found out with November’s Coordinape round, this can be automated.
As such, I would like to propose a modification to the seasonal spec to introduce a Monthly Guest Pass round in December and January for 250,000 BANK per round. Details in Specification below.
Some dates:
December Coordinape Round
- Submission period: Dec 3rd - 7th
- Upload to Coordinape: Dec 8th
- Allocation period: Dec 9th - 13th
January Coordinape Round
- Submission period: Jan 3rd - 7th
- Upload to Coordinape: Jan 8th
- Allocation period: Jan 9th - 13th
MISSION & VALUES ALIGNMENT
We’ve had quite a few standout guest pass members. Many have earned their way to L1 and some have jumped directly to L2. We also have a number of existing Guest Pass members that are working hard and with enthusiasm.
It is imperative that we keep Guest Pass members happy, part of which is compensating them for their work. If we were running a Seasonal L1/L2 round, this would be less problematic, but since L1/L2s have a monthly round, it reflects poorly on us as a DAO to make Guest Pass members wait months.
One of our values is:
Culture: We reward action and embrace risk. We empower our community to continually drive new initiatives by providing a space to self-organize and quickly move from idea to action.
Compensation is a form of rewarding action. Previously we were uncertain of the operational lift. But knowing it’s minimal, why delay?
SCOPE OF WORK
Scope of work would be handled by the Operations Guild. Guest pass coordinape rounds would follow the same workflow as L1/L2. Guest Pass members would type in /coordinape in a text channel and receive a google form asking for their wallet information and some basic DAO-health-check questions.
SPECIFICATION
We would hold a Guest Pass coordinape round beginning on Dec 9th and another on January 9th, each with 250K BANK.
- Guest pass members would opt-in
- Guest pass members would only be able to receive tokens
- Guest pass members would NOT be able to give tokens
- L1/L2 members participating in their respective circles would be able to allocated tokens to guest pass members
This is different from what is detailed in the spec. The spec asks for L2s to nominate Guest Pass members. This model would Guest Pass members opt in, but would still limit collusion by only allowing L1/L2 to allocate.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
This change would not require additional funding. It would split the 500K allocated for the Seasonal Guest Pass round into two 250K rounds.
BRAND USAGE
While this does not require formal brand usage, it will help us become more equitable and treat all contributions equally.
SUCCESS METRICS OR KPIS
We’ll note how many Guest Pass members have signed up for Coordinape.
NEXT STEPS
Ops Guild will move forward with a Guest Pass Coordinape round in addition to the L1 and L2 round beginning on December 9th.
