As outlined in the proposed methodology for structuring & rewarding contributions, our goal is to set up a system where individual guilds are able to operate autonomously, setting up their own budgets and roadmaps (with approval from the DAO at large), and allocating compensation to guild members internally based on their contributions.
The ideal tooling that helps achieve this level of autonomy and decentralisation is a combination of Dework + Coordinape (works via a native integration), whereby each guild creates (unpriced) tasks based on their roadmap, and at the end of each period guild members allocate points to each other, based on how much fellow members have contributed. More detail on this rewards mechanism can be found in Coordinape documentation.
What this ensures is that compensation is peer-assigned, and participation in tasks is open to any citizen. That means no centralised HR decision-making, no need for ācore teamā definition and associated bureaucracies.
While we are moving towards this model, there are a few dependencies - āmetaā work, most of which has been documented in Q2 Roadmap, including:
- treasury diversification
- liquidity
- passport issuance
- member onboarding processes
- guild set up & associated processes for budget and roadmap decisions
- brand & community work to introduce talented & committed members into the community that will actually contribute work.
Alongside some fantastic & committed recurrent contributors, a bulk of this meta-work is done by the founding members. Before the dependencies are solved and the Coordinape model is implemented, the founding members are also the ones who add and price tasks. To date, we have only published tasks with the goal of incentivising community members to contribute & earn $NATION, without claiming compensation ourselves.
Since the incentives would be quite weird for the founding members to add and price tasks, and then pick them up ourselves, Iād like to propose to the community a temporary compensation of 10k USDC per month for 3 months to be allocated to @0xGallego and myself (Anastasiya) each for our work on the roadmap and the āmetaā tasks. @luis has chosen to not take up compensation.
Compensation in USDC is of course subject to the DAO securing funds for runway in USDC or similar without damaging the market for $NATION (eg through bonds as proposed by @Luis).
After this period, we should be in the position to move fully to the Dework + Coordinape system and then all contributors, including founding members, would be rewarded the same way.
