Can we build a better game?

Thanks for the detail on this!

One of the significant changes I would see would be combining many guilds into service-focused methods. Additionally, I would expect initiatives to share if they intend to make money for the DAO. If we change the game, that will enable paid positions from some of these things.

I’m unsure if the guild model still works tbh. their primary value is social, typically they don’t collectively create value, groups of folks in them do. having a social space for folks with shared kills and interests makes sense but guilds don’t seem to be based on observations. think empowering groups to spin things up that benefit the DAO independent of the DAO/it’s experience would be better.

Lots of different delineations here. IMO should be decided on a case-by-case basis.
think we can experiment here using social mechanisms like POAPs for attending workshops/social events. assume by case-by-case basis you don’t individual folks?

if it’s external and reasonable, we should issue code to it. If it’s internal and laborious, we should pay people USDC (or whatever real money). We should issue $CODE for it if it’s internal and fun.

Like this framing, definitely agree for folks “building the DAO” rather than just participating $CODE alone can’t work. imagine these changes will reduce the opportunity to build the DAO in the short-term but mean people are more meaningfully rewarded. particularly if we empower folks to spin things out.

I think this also needs to happen on a case-by-case basis. We could put significant effort into it or do it as required. I think the external facing issues are the most important to solve, and most of that could be handled with fancy captchas on things like the academy.

would like to see us do crypto-native things if we can! also helps folks learn about the benefits of these various tools. Hopefully D_D Code of Conduct and moderation process - Seeking Input can help with bad cases too.

@ntindle

I have no idea, but I think it would get more $CODE to those who don’t run the DAO

This is a super important benefit of this to me. more folks with more $CODE to decentralise and influence governance.

@ntindle

This is one of the most complex questions to answer. I need a lawyer to answer this, but its model should be the sub-DAO allocated X $CODE to use as appropriate. Y% of profit should be assigned back to the DAO. X should vary based on the sub-DAO, and Y should be required in the charter of the sub-DAO.

More and more I’m thinking we leave this pretty open and see what we get back, could have some novel ideas of value return. the disadvantage is the legal implications of their actions and needing folks with Governance power to get involved in conversations.

@ntindle

I say yes. This is one of the essential things the DAO can do regarding the sustainability required to accomplish its mission. This is very important to the future of the DAO.
