Hey all, I’m curious what the DAO thinks about whether we should be funding new or any separate initiatives at this time, while we are still working on the transitional work that’s been underway for the past year.
When the multi-sig unpaused funding, they said the following:
To me, this makes it clear that we should not be funding new initiatives unless we convince the multi-sig or otherwise have the DAO approve a proposal to start funding new or other separate initiatives again. I’m thinking about things like Use Treasury Yield to Fund IRL Events or the Layer 2 Newsletter component of Fund DAO Newsletters Till End of Year (to me, the DAO newsletter part is related enough to the transition to be funded anyways, but that could be debated).
Let’s do a poll and have some discussion.
Should the DAO be funding new initiatives or other initiatives not directly related to the transition, at this time (i.e. before the transition is complete)?
Nice post ser! I support some level of retro funding for newsletters, but don’t think we should being doing any proactive funding at this time. i tend to agree that the rollup helps w/ the transition, and that team should apply for additional retro for future work after the transition is complete. not sure i can say the same for the l2 tho as it’s not related to the transition. considering the funding restart forum post, perhaps only the rollup should be retro funded at this time since it’s the only newsletter that relates to the transition. thanks for helping me to clarify my thinking.
The inclusion of the poll as a temp check is fantastic, and something that I would like to see on all Forum posts before consensus drives it to Snapshot.
I support this proposal, and voted “no” in the poll. If we as the community are following the intent (what the tlBANK holders voted on) for the use of DAO funds while in this transition, then I agree, current proposals outside of this scope (below image), should not be funded until transition is completed.
I do have one caveat to my position, that I do support retro-funding for past work completed on the L2 newsletter published editions. My support of the Weekly Rollup newsletter funding until December 2024 I believe aligns with the tlBANK Snapshot funding definitions. Here’s my comments on regarding that proposal Fund DAO Newsletters Till End of Year - #9 by coffee-crusher
I am asking the community whether those mentioned things (and similar) should be funded during our transitional phase, and I think they probably shouldn’t (with the exception of the DAO newsletter).
