Round 21 - GMC Community Discussion of Submitted Applications

Grants

Victus Capital Investment

No.

Rocket Pool Validator Integration for ethseer

It’s pretty much identical to their previous application except for a jab at beaconcha.in. They also responded to feedback on their application.

I still stand by my previous comments.

FOMO Factor EP1 (side-event at ETHDenver)

Formatting is messed up. Can’t spell Rocket Pool properly.

It’s probably not worth it but it seems like something we need to do to be taken seriously. The cost seems to be a bit high for something like this but doesn’t seem to be unfair.

Pay them.

Using rETH as collateral to support preconfirmations with mev-commit

I don’t think they realize that the DAO doesn’t have that much funds.

Smart Node v2 Exit Arbitrage Add-on

Fund it. Double it. Triple it.

Certifications for rETH Course Completion Incentive

I don’t think so. Seems like throwing away money? Although it may motivate someone to finish the course and become a valuable contributor in which case it would be worth it.

Retros

Staking ETH with Rocket Pool Organization and Outreach

I don’t get it to be honest. Uisce was already awarded $8,900 for the Nexus DAO mint so this is for the effort that was spent 1.5y ago and didn’t result in mints? The calculation confused me but it’s not that much so might as well fund it as goodwill.

RPIP 64 + Initialization POAP

Pay them. Cover the vote initialization cost as well.
