About the Bounty Idea category

The Bounty Ideas category is for early-stage proposals from the community about potential bounties. It serves as a space to brainstorm, discuss scope, and gather feedback before a task is formally approved.

Unlike Open Bounties, which list approved and actionable tasks, this category is for ideas that still need refinement or community input. Contributors and delegates can collaborate here to shape proposals into clear, fundable bounties.

Topics in this category generally contain:

  • A clear description of the proposed task or project
  • Suggested deliverables and outcomes
  • Expected impact for the DAO or protocol
  • Proposed reward estimates (SUMR or stablecoins)
  • References, resources, or supporting documentation
  • Open questions for discussion with the community

This category is essential for fostering innovation and decentralization. It allows community members to contribute ideas, propose improvements, and help identify opportunities for smaller projects before they move to Open Bounties. Once a proposal is approved, it will be moved to the Open Bounties category for contributors to claim.
