Summary

Provide support for questions posed by Rocket Pool community members in the #support discord channel. This is a continuation of the previously approved Support Payments #6 in gmc_round_33.

Required Milestones

Provide user support in the #support channel of discord, under the following terms:

  1. Provide at least 1 hour of work providing #support discord channel in EACH of the three months June 2026 - August 2026, as measured by RocketScrape; alternatively provide 15 hours TOTAL over the 3 month block.
  2. Total payout of the bounty is min($1000 × √(total support hours), $7500)
  3. The payout will be split proportionally amongst all awardees based on time spent as measured by RocketScrape and adjustments based on investigation (see Verification); payment will be done during the next GMC distribution phase. Should an awardee forfeit their reward, it will be split proportionally among the other eligible participants.

Verification

Multiple previous recipients have generally run RocketScrape independently at the end of the period to reach consensus on final participation numbers. This includes @leighm.eth, @Steely and @haloooloolo (me). This should be sufficient as it is in everyone’s best interest to not understate their own numbers and not let someone else overstate theirs.

  1. Within the first 3 days after a 3 month block ends, a list of all potential awardees will be produced by GMC.
  2. A 10-day period will follow where any community member can publicly or privately notify the GMC that a potential awardee was not providing support (for example, was requesting support) or not providing quality support (for example, multiple ineffective messages/farming). Anyone offering support can also petition for a name to be added to the list if they narrowly failed the initial inclusion criteria and can be included on a case-by-case basis. Community members may also advocate for inclusion of participants that do not strictly meet all the bounty criteria.
  3. The GMC will investigate the #support record of any questioned potential awardee and weight contributions either 0%, 50%, or 100% based on posts in the #support channel. The 50% level will be for users with approximately 25%-75% effective support messages. Potential awardees receiving 0% or 50% will be considered 0% or 50% for future #support bounties unless they specifically request and are granted re-evaluation.
