OpenGov.Watch - 2024 September Performance Summary

· 3 min read
Alice und Bob

Mid September through Mid October we focused on two initiatives:

This Treasury report had the first shades of routine to it. While it is still a lot of manual work, we at least have one year of experience now in getting it done. To potentially decentralize the process in the future, we also created a playlist of the most essential processes to allow others to replicate the process.

Budgeting is still a big topic, and we are finally making tangible progress in translating theory into practice. As a first stepping stone, we brought the Bounty Compliance Standards to an on-chain WFC vote. The idea is to create a foundational standard upon which we can build a budgeting process in the future. This month, we published the first draft called “Budgeting via subDAOs”. The idea here is to establish the actual process by which quarterly budgeting may be introduced as a process to the DAO. We think the process is still going to take time. It is dependent on the support of major stakeholders and our ability to follow along with the progress of subDAOs.

For the next few weeks, we plan to work on helping bounties coordinate better. We were very involved in reforming the marketing bounty and the Ambassador Program and will report on that next. We have also identified a need in the DAO to improve workforce recruitment, so HR is becoming a more relevant topic. In addition, BD and DevRel are the next big pieces missing in the decentralized organization puzzle.
