Swap.Wei and Treaury.wei
I’d like to donate both of these names to zfi, Ross and the Dao.
I could use the Ethereum for a project. I’m building on wei domains.
I would be forever grateful for a 1eth “bounty” so I can build the projects I want on Wei.
I have no idea what I’m doing so I’m not sure if I put the proposal upright or if it’s ridiculous for me to be asking this.
Thank you wei holders.
Those a solid domains. I think it honestly just makes more sense rn to place those domains on auction and invite the DAO and public to engage in order to raise funds or get them into hands that will use them for cool wei dapps. If the goal is to especially make those domains available to DAO first in exchange for ETH which is a nice gesture (like 'right of first refusal'), then this should be done onchain, IMO, rather than a deal where payment comes without atomic assignment of domains in same tx in exchange for ETH. After all if crypto people don't use crypto tools, then who will. The proposal as made is 'send ETH and I will do X'. Which is fine for tight circles, but won't be a trust structure or precedent that invites more people to join WNS (having even the suggestion of an early group of insiders is bad optics). The DAO already just had two follow up proposals to send out ETH on a trust-basis based on this suggestion, seemingly, so I want to nip this format in the bud. To avoid confusion here, since you may not have understood the automatic transfer of ETH involved in the proposal as made, the DAO app could be a lot better about making it simpler to make a 'signal' proposal to do temperature check without having actions attached as the current does. Ultimately, as a crypto project and to differentiate from ENS, we should try and avoid trust for DAO dealings, even from our best supporters and early domainers. As well, as you would understand, the proposal as encoded is not "donation" to the DAO but the opposite for outside observers. So I would recommend getting more feedback in this thread and revising the approach to work with the admin policy (https://holders.vote/h/wns.wei/p/be7ef96c-df28-440d-b8ea-5ea2778103da) which is designed for now to avoid need to keep up with sorting well-intentioned (relatively) large treasury transfers and the potential for endless spam proposals that amount to an attack. Given the current treasury is not that big it also doesn't make sense IMO to make this deal at this time (roughly 40%), but to continue allocating the roll.wei lottery for now to grow WNS registrations as the simple DAO treasury strategy. As DAO treasury grows and proves out a predictable policy on how it uses ETH to benefit WNS, I think we should then work to support the community with ETH and engage them in improving the dapp, the protocol and market reach. For now, the simple of existence of WNS as alternative namespace and rejecting domain monopoly on Ethereum is sufficient common cause, and as it grows, we can make a name for ourselves as part of Ethereum's productive capacity and I would like to see contributors live and grow with our humble network. We are in this together for now!
I knew the proposal would not pass or be vetoed, but it was more just a show of intention.
Could we do native auctions on the app?
