@ONE4All
@BrotherOne
@frwrdslosh
We also want to congratulate and welcome back previous council member:
The test of any organization’s longevity is its ability to pass on control. We’re thrilled to see that the Validator DAO passed this test with the successful elections of the new council members. The election demonstrated the power of self-organization and decentralization. It was great to see the increase in enthusiasm and voter participation. The resulting election was a powerful statement to the ability of the Harmony community to support and sustain itself without assistance from the Harmony team.
What we are accomplishing is ground breaking and thus presents new challenges that will have to be met with flexibility and creativity. Some challenges are small such as how to best log council members work hours. While other challenges are large such as how to onboard validators as the Validator DOA mandates. The council members are motivated to help guide the community in addressing all the challenges, large and small.
In our first meeting, the council members were all added to the multi-sig Harmony wallet and have been given access to all necessary social media accounts and documentation tools.
Funding request:
$100k for the 9 council members for the elected term of 13 weeks
We are excited for the opportunities and capabilities that a multisig staking wallet can mean for the Validator DAO. A multisig staking wallet would allow the Validator DAO to use bootstrapping funds to become self-sufficient. Furthering the Harmony protocol towards full decentralization.
The council members will adhere to their obligation to ensure funds are appropriated in a transparent manner through the use of the following GNOSIS Multisig safe:
