Round 21 - GMC Call for Retrospective Applications - Deadline is February 7

Name of Retrospective Award

RPIP 64 + Initialization POAP

Who is the proposed retrospective award recipient?

@haloooloolo, @ShfRyn

What specific project or work is the retrospective award in recognition of?

This is in recognition of the work to prepare for the first pDAO on-chain vote. This includes the initiative to activate the remaining vote power, write the RPIP and vote text and some minor governance work.

Are the subjects of this award entirely open source (MIT, GPL, Apache, CC BY license or similar)? If not, which parts will not be, why, and under what license will they be published?

Mostly not applicable, the RPIP and vote text are public.

Benefit

Group Benefits
Potential rETH holders On-chain voting voting reduces governance risk for rETH holders
rETH holders Same as for potential holders - lower governance risk
Potential NOs More direct participation enabled by on-chain voting
NOs Same as potential node operators in addition to some gas savings by having their vote power initialized for them
Community Nice POAP :slight_smile:
RPL holders N/A except for NOs

Costs

$750 - RPIP + governance work (haloooloolo)
$100 - POAP art (ShfRyn)
0.13 ETH - Vote initialization cost minus POAP revenue (haloooloolo)

How much USD $ is the applicant requesting be awarded to the recipient?

$850 (+ 0.13 ETH)
whether to cover the extra 0.13 ETH I will leave up to the GMC as initializing 100% of vote power wasn’t strictly necessary to achieve the stated goal of being “close enough”

Conflict of Interest

None
