Thanks for putting this together @dhaiwat10 and @Derked. Seems obvious we’re going to need to find a ways to "recruit’ new members into the DAO and democratise access. For example, we’re short on design and product skills, I wonder if guest passes in some form could potentially be a very good solution for this ![]()
A few questions in good faith to straw-man this idea:
- Have you considered the cost to existing members re lowering the value of their NFTs and/or future $CODE holdings?
- As per [DRAFT] Governance Token Allocation Amendment for Founding Team & Advisors we’re already allocating the equivalent of ~387 memberships in $CODE to welcome people into the DAO. I believe @luan and co in the fellowships team are considering doing this in two ways: allocating $CODE to orgs so they can gift to their members and providing ways for people to earn their way into the DAO via paid tasks. How do these play together? Is the ~380 not already generous enough?
- What happens if they’ve been an awesome contributors but haven’t quite earned the 400 tokens to stay? That would suck! (imagine that would probably take > 2 months)
Another angle could be teams being able to request guest passes for specific skills they’re lacking to fill project roles? Or maybe each guild getting a budget of Guest passes for the Season ? Given we’re struggling with effective onboarding at the moment making it possible for our membership to double like this with no control might be too much to handle and negatively impact existing members who’ve "paid"to get in! If i could do this I know I would use it ![]()
Couple of other things:
- What would success look like and how would we track it?
- Might be worth updating the format of this to match the incoming Updated Proposal Template for DDIP for consistency cc @willblackburn @isiah
