There is a currently a proposal out to set aside 5% of emissions for protocol use. I am in favor of that as there definitely needs to be capital set aside to fund future development.
This early in a project’s life cycle it is too early to completely decentralize so it would be quite prudent for the project to onboard full-time & part time paid contributors. Synthetix set a great model of this with striking a healthy balance between clear leadership, dedicated roles, DAO management of funds, and a mix of community/core team directing project buildout.
The roles required by the project include:
- Project Management (Project Lead)
- Partnerships
- Researcher / Writer (need someone to lead documentation)
- Communications
- Front End Engineering
- Operations
- APR optimization engineering
- Anything else supporting Andre’s/project development
Some of these roles can be filled by multiple people or one person fulfilling multiple roles. Also please comment what other roles the project could potentially need.
