Personally, I wouldn’t mind a small increase to oDAO (reminder, I am not on the oDAO). I hope I’m not thrashed for that opinion, lol. It would end up coming out of the treasury, ultimately, so the absolute RPL value to IMC and GMC would be the same (can’t decrease NO rewards, imo).
One thing I want to avoid that I heard spoke of once in the past is having pDAO/GMC etc. provide any type of reward or compensation directly to the oDAO. I don’t think we want pDAO to have even any pretense of “directly employing” oDAO, even though pDAO does ultimately vote on the splits.
If my numbers are correct, the last rewards cycle of 2024 had 77888 RPL of inflation that went as follows:
77888 RPL →
54522 RPL pDAO Node Operators
1168 RPL oDAO Rewards
22198 RPL pDAO Admin →
11068 RPL IMC
4563 RPL GMC
6567 RPL Treasury
Reminder, 70% goes to the pDAO NOs, 1.5% to the oDAO, 28.5% to pDAO administration. The pDAO admin percentage is further split into 50% for the IMC, 20.5% for the GMC and 29.5% for the treasury.
If you went:
70% NO
3% oDAO
27% pDAO
then
77888 RPL →
54522 RPL pDAO Node Operators
2336 RPL oDAO Rewards
21030 RPL pDAO Admin →
11068 RPL IMC
4563 RPL GMC
5399 RPL Treasury
That would keep IMC/GMC the same with new splits:
IMC 52.6%
GMC 21.7%
Treasury 25.7%
This doesn’t take into account a potential shift from treasury to GMC that is also being discussed in another forum post: Revised GMC Split Proposal
The oDAO could further choose to not vote in new members, thus keeping a larger share each of the rewards (which I believe is already the case with Yorick and Blockchain Capital? recently leaving).
