Description

Let’s recap some important proposals that required a DAO Committee’s hands-on intervention in order to enact them: 1. Mar 2021 - [Original proposal to migrate to a gas-less voting system.](https://forum.decentraland.org/t/proposal-for-a-more-accessible-and-affordable-dao/450) 2. May 2021 - [The new DAO launches and the first report is published](https://decentraland.org/blog/project-updates/dao-committee-report-1/) . 3. Jun 2021 - [Activate Snapshot Delegation](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=d43c1e50-daa9-11eb-9110-69b867ba991b) . 4. Jul 2021 - [Convert 1/5 of the Treasury to stablecoins](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=69b89db0-de87-11eb-815a-1f002ccf0372) . 5. Sep 2021 - [Reimbursement of gas fees to DAO Committee.](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=f3f19d40-17ff-11ec-ac84-77607720a240) 6. Oct 2021 - [Expanding the grants program for bigger tires](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=c02ff450-2783-11ec-ac84-77607720a240) . 7. Nov 2021 - [Join Blender Development Fund](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=7890f630-3ceb-11ec-be0c-afec86cba5e5) . 8. Dec 2021 - [Keep Polygon transactions for free](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=7af34c90-5d1e-11ec-8188-4352ce3d30e7) . 9. Jan 2022 - [Resignation of Eric from the DAO Committee.](https://forum.decentraland.org/t/resignation-from-the-dao-committee/4705) The main responsibilities of the DAO Committee are: * Moderate proposals in the governance platform (promote to enacted, passed, rejected) * Keep updated the list of POIs, BanNames and Catalysts. * Create and fund vesting contracts for paying grants. * Calculate and execute compensation for the Wearables Curation Committee. * Pay the DAO Facilitator a monthly compensation. * Use the DAO Treasury (release vesting, transfers to operational wallet, swap funds). * Reimburse gas fees to the DAO Committee. Some other task related to the role are: * Attend monthly Town Halls and provide general community support. * Give feedback to proposals, evaluate risks and implementations pathways. * Contact external organizations in the name of the DAO. So far we enacted 181 proposals, distributed as follow: * 81 POIs added * 50 grants paid * 39 polls were enacted * 10 names banned * 1 catalyst update In the past year I have sent 414 transactions from my [DAO Committee wallet](https://etherscan.io/address/0xfe91C0c482E09600f2d1DBCA10FD705BC6de60bc) in the name of the DAO. Thanks to the proposal of reimbursement of gas fees, this operation doesn’t have a monetary loss for the committee members. However, each of these transactions required attention to review/sign and **those efforts are not being compensated in any form**. I believe this is a problem for the long-term sustainable operation of the DAO. Adding to this situation, one of the initial three committee members resigned early this year. It has been hard to find a replacement that can take such a responsibility and willing to do it for free. **I believe we need to start compensating the DAO Committee members and set the grounds for a sustainable DAO Committee. What do you think? I’m open to questions and feedback.**
