11 Participants in Meeting (See list of participants at end of notes)
1. Weekly Endowment Updates (@karpatkey + @Steakhouse)
Over $100m due to Eth price appreciation
Preparing to chat with DAO about rebalancing policy, have been doing regular swaps
Q: As ETH appreciates what is the strategy?
A: Swaps are something that are handled regularly. Aiming for 25% stables, lower now due to ETH price appreciation
2. General DAO Updates
EthDenver Recap
- Great conference! Lots of noise to sift through, but amazing conversations.
- Really nice to meet people IRL
Working Group Funding Requests
- Budgets are formed at the start of the term, funding requests follow ~2 months later
- Will post funding requests to Forum this week for Meta-Gov and Public Goods (Ecosystem not requesting)
- Funding as a social vote followed by funding as a payment vote will take place over next few weeks. Also, voting on litigation payment will occur
3. Klaus Bravenboer from Hack Hummanity
- Wanted to create hackathons for more than just technical people, talent exists outside of developers
- Have run 11 hackathons for numerous different types of organizations, also have background in brand design
- Create challenge statements to rally hackathon participants around solving problems
- Ran 3 day hack during EthDenver to ship governance proposals for Arbitrum, goal was to drive trust and innovation across Arbitrum ecosystem
- Received high NPS scores, participants really enjoyed!
- More info on hackathon on Arbitrum Forum: Arbitrum GovHack Submissions - Arbitrum
- Q: How to engage with ENS about running something like this?
- Spence: Processes to engage with ENS DAO: Create proposal, run temp-check, have flow we can help you with. Success for previous proposals: Outline a problem and demonstrate how you propose to fix the problem. Don’t want a solution looking for a problem.
- @avsa.eth: How get new people to engage and understand ENS DAO? Engage in voting, understand grants etc.? These are the biggest issues IMO
- Q: What relationship between ENS and Arbitrum?
- A: Many developers and ecosystem leaders are connected, connections always being made
4. Open Discussion
None
