GM Summer DAO! 
We are pleased to inform everyone that the Delegate Incentive Working Group (DI-WG) is now officially active. A huge thank you to @Raphael_Anode, @Sixty, @vumichien, and @BitChan for volunteering to join this initiative.
Over the past few weeks, we have been identifying the friction points in our current system. Based on the recent Community Calls and data analyses, we have to solve four key tensions:
-
Scaling governance compensation to actual workload
-
Treasury composition (High SUMR / Low Stables) requiring a new payment model
-
Centralization risks where only 1-2 delegates are needed to determine vote outcomes
-
Balancing “Attendance” vs. true "Contribution Quality”
During last week’s Community Call #11, we initiated an exploratory workshop to begin defining the DAO’s “North Star” regarding these incentives. We touched on questions regarding Delegate Vision, High-Value Contribution, Compensation, and KPIs.
While we gathered initial insights, we believe these decisions are too important to be made by a small group. We need broader consensus to ensure the new framework is robust and fair.
To ensure maximum collaboration, we are extending the workshop to this week’s Community Call #12. We will be doing a deep dive into the Miro Board to finalize our stance on:
-
what specific actions constitute “High Value” work?
-
how should the compensation mix be structured to align incentives without draining stables?
-
How should we measure workload to calculate the Base Pay?
How You Can Help We are asking for the community’s full attendance and support as we figure out the DAO’s next step.
