Hi there!
Thanks a lot for your interest, support and comments. Our team appreciates it very much!
Here are clarification regarding two main concerns from the side of community - VOTE to Earn Mechanic and technical dependence on third party:
- “VOTE” TO EARN. We’ve proposed the Vote to Earn Mechanic idea because there is a successful example of using a similar mechanic in the Aavegotchi universe. Aavegotchi managed to create one of the most active DAOs in the world by implementing an XP earning system for voting. You can learn more about their system here: Aavegotchi Governance: Voting as a Member of the World’s Most Active DAO | The Curve
We believe that such a mechanic will not greatly affect those who have a strong voting power and those who are accustomed to thoughtful voting. In our view, there is no need to fear a bias towards mass unconscious voting. However, there is a chance to increase the overall level of involvement in this process, attract more people who will vote. By increasing overall activity, quality can ultimately be improved in the future. New voting participants do not necessarily have to turn into formal voters who are only hunting for points. They can also become thoughtful and conscious members of the community. This already depends on the internal life of the community, reactions, events, updates.
We consider the Vote to Earn practice to be super successful and believe that it will work in DCL and raise interest in voting. However, we will not insist if the DAO does not like this idea.
We can conduct an individual vote to decide whether to remove or keep this part if the community is interested. Otherwise, we will simply remove this part.
- TECHNICAL Decentralization. We do not have a task to monopolize technical support and scene service. As we mark in the application, all the code will be open source. The part that will require server deployment will be documented so that any team can do this.
We understand the importance of decentralization. Therefore, we welcome any ideas that will minimize influence/dependence on the third party. So please share you ideas how we can improve this part.
BR, D
