Action Items from Previous Meeting:
ย 
ย 
From last meet
  • want to release funding in increments to allow us to guide projects faster
    • 3 months is too long, so we can release funding in half-season increments
  • but we need to give projects guidance on what we are going to be judging them
Project Review:
IMN
  • self-sovereignty? IMN + Bankless BR ask is quite large (> 6M BANK) - have you thought about self-sovereignty?
    • grants, sponsorships, etc
    • potential KPI: sponsorship leads - how many potential customers are interested in what you are building?
  • how about some internal efficiencies? Are all nodes as efficient as other nodes?
    • perhaps look at top 5% and bottom 5% of nodes and figure out how to uplift the others?
  • KPIs
    • for each node: reach and BANK spend (i.e. BANK/subscriber)
    • # sponsorship leads
  • Question:
    • the funding ask is for April as well - will we distribute 2.5 months/1.5 months or 50%?
      • A: 50%
    • what about the fact that IMN contributors are getting less BANK/hr than other projects?
      • Grants isnโ€™t prepared to talk about this at the moment
      • ย 
Infosec
  • KPIs
    • # of incidents
  • is this a project or should it be done through ops?
    • theyโ€™d like to be indepedent but would consider being a guild
ย 
Have a lot of projects left, not much time, what should we do?
  • DECISION: release half the funding, and start meeting projects weekly
    • at the meet, give projects KPIs upon which they will be judged
    • ask for ALL funding on snapshot and then release the rest from the GC multisig
  • ACTION: make a forum post on this to share what we are doing
