Project Highlights & Needs
🤖 DEGEN prepares to go-to-market. They are still ➡️ looking for Customer Support folks to get involved and help education & troubleshoot with new servers. Also ➡️ looking for a FE developer.
🗒️ Bounty Board is working on Discord OAuth and fleshing out governance.
Bankless Loans is ➡️ looking for a Web3 developer to aid in connecting the UI to Liquity’s functionality; they are targeting launch for the end of Season 2.
🖥️ Website V2 is fixing up some final tickets and launching this week! Both MrPackman and Zberwaldt are ➡️ looking to handoff the project to a new PM and Lead Dev after launch and there are many plans for the future of this product - get in touch with MrPackman or hit up #website to get involved.
🗜️ DevOps finished migrating the bankless.community domain to Vercel management so we can manage subdomains and DNS records on our own - this will soon transfer to AWS once Terraform is running. ⚠️ Setup 2FA on your Github account to maintain access ⚠️
Content Gateway is full steam ahead with plans to integrate DEGEN, Bounty Board, Bankless Academy, the Website, a mobile app and more! Check out their proposal.
🤝 Membership
Last week, we began discussions around how to qualify for a potential Guild Coordinape round or programs like UBI and other benefits. This week, we met further to discuss what a path forward could look like.
We discussed varying degrees of high-tech solutions for tracking contribution through integrations with Github, Discord, Notion, etc to compose of a score for contribution.
We talked about project earnings, staking with rewards, and the potential ability slashing & penalties could play in aligning incentives as well.
We also discussed low-tech solutions like autocratic approval, vouching, and other social-level methods for approving membership.
Most likely, we will pursue progressive decentralization by starting with low-tech social consensus and iterate on top of each subsequent version by introducing more automated support for proving membership.
In Season 2, expect a proposal outlining the first version of membership requirements as well as a roadmap & vision for what could come thereafter.
Who knows, maybe it could be its own product 🤔.
