1. Overview:
This proposal continues the delegate compensation program first approved in [SIP5.6], this time applying it to October 2025. The goal is to sustain high-quality governance engagement and reward meaningful participation from active delegates across Lazy Summer Protocol governance.
Extending [SIP3.11] (September Distribution) to [SIP3.11.1] (October Distribution) to [SIP3.11.X] (Future Distributions)
2. Motivation:
Active and accountable delegates remain a cornerstone of protocol governance. October 2025 featured discussions around SUMR transferability, Governance v2 audit progress, and multiple RFCs for new vaults and integrations. Compensating delegates for their time and contributions ensures continued accountability and engagement.
3. Specification:
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Rewards Token | SUMR |
| Source of Rewards | Lazy Summer DAO Treasury (Base) |
| Total Distribution Amount | 154,249.98 SUMR |
| Distribution Schedule | One-time disbursement following onchain approval |
| Eligibility Period | October 1st – October 31th (2025) |
| Distribution Method | Direct transfer to verified delegate wallet addresses |
4. Risk Assessment:
- Onchain vote will authorize SUMR disbursement from the DAO Treasury.
- Delegate participation data was sourced from the Lazy Summer Governance Dashboard.
- The final delegate list and breakdown is made publicly available here.
- Any entity may only receive compensation through a single verified delegate address.
- Suspected Sybil delegates will be excluded, subject to verification by @Recognized_Delegates.
5. Voting:
If YES - Approve 154,249.98 SUMR disbursement to eligible October delegates
If NO - Do not compensate for October; continue with further discussion.
