The governance SubDAOs were not reelected and ceased 21 October 2022. Sobol needs correcting

100% complete, up from 40% at the beginning of the month? yet there’s still more work to be done? You’re referencing two “concrete deliverables” that were not shared in the original proposal and there’s no obvious or transparent point of reference on what was planned or delivered. To clarify deliverable 2 100% Completed, Done could you guys provide a link, please.

Cool.Nice work on pulling together that industry data. Was there any further analysis of those growth trends, especially re:syndicate. Be interesting to understand the size of DAO membership (mean/median/mode) across the different creator tools.

Thank you. It was not simple, but I feel we have created something that has never existed before and provided amazing insight to how to achieve the objective of more active DAOs.

Expect the articles outlined above to focus on the topics you mentioned and more :slight_smile:

Agree with Renee that some more insight would be great! Getting Henry to dive deeper into Syndicate would be worth it. Copying @mroldann since we spoke last week that Syndicate specifically is tricky to gain insight into as the contracts are not open source. A few specific comments:

  • Adding 12k+ wallets in two weeks in July is an outlier worth looking into. Yes, it is around the time Syndicate launched on Polygon, but this looks a whole lot like airdrop hunting
  • Classifying a DAO as “active” if the only activity is the DAO being deployed might be worth refining
  • Cumulative active DAOs as a metric does not make sense since “active is defined by a time frame”
  • Maybe we can add some activity metrics - the industry standard (TVL) as well as the number of transactions
2 Likes

Thanks @fartunov!

I love it that more and more people are excited about the insights we are creating. This is just the start :slight_smile:

We have indeed been working closely with @mroldann and he has been really really helpful!

I wanted to add some comments to the points you made below:

  1. It seems to me that the fact that Syndicate advertised a legal wrapper to their “investment clubs” was the cause of the the biggest spikes (and lots of publicity). Their definition of what an “investment club” is or is not, their definition of custodial vs. non-custodial and how they deal with an entity’s funds are all peculiar. We are looking to write an article and shed some light into all of this next season. If you would like to help we would love your contribution!

  2. The dashboard linked in v1… more like a beta version as we just managed to get everything hooked up (including the use of just released features) to make it work. We are working on a new version for season 3 which will delve deeper exactly at the points you mentioned, and maybe more too.
    2.1) For example, our current definition of activity was a compromise to get us a number. Today it is an activity (inflow or outflow) of the registered wallet of the organism within the timeframe (1 week or a quarter). We are looking to dive deeper into this metric to better understand DAO creation and activity.
    2.2) We have just today been able to get a better list of token values so that we can get closer to TVL – it has not been easy and i do not want to over promise, but we are working towards this number too.
    2.3) we have just today flagged the cumulative active metric as incorrect and we are going to update the dashboard in the coming days to reflect a more meaningful and useful number.

Having said all that. If you would like to offer more support and ideas, share what else you would like to see, lets get in touch :slight_smile:

Best regards
Fabs

Thanks for sharing this dashboard Fabs! This is brilliant. I understand how difficult this must have been so kudos to Henry as well and Martin! @fartunov brings up brilliant points about the Syndicate statistics, there’s obviously something off there not because of a mistake but simply because of the parameters. I won’t pretend I know how to fix that! But this still overall is really helpful to look at. Thanks!

Hi all! Thanks @fartunov for pinging.

As @Fabs mentions, we need a general disclaimer regarding data accuracy as it is still work in progress. Mind that this kind of dashboards have only been possible since early November 2022 with Dune V2 faster and multi chain queries (thanks to SQL Spark vs. Postgre in V1), Dune V2 adding Polygon data and, specially, Dune spells (user defined data abstractions) that Henry created to make queries even faster.

Regarding Syndicate, clubs creation data seems to be correct as the dashboard shows they had 20k clubs at the same time they announced this milestone on Twitter.

As for the outlier, it seems they have been attacked by airdrop farmers when they launched in Polygon as @fartunov mentions.

image

As a side comment, Syndicate Clubs seem to be quite different to other forms of organization. For example, Club tokens are non-transferrable ERC-20s, members cannot be more than 99 and if the Club is created by an EOA the funds of the fundrising goes to it. Finally, their contracts are’t verified to getting sense of what happens within them is harder.

As a conclusion, this is a good start but we need more time to continue curating the data, discuss whether to include Syndicate and/or other DAO frameworks and add data related to TVLs and membership.

Thanks Martin, this is brilliant. You all have a tough job! Obviously it goes without saying I look forward to the day we have a dataset that is aligned on an industry basis with who our target market is and who the other orgs are that offer a similar value prop.

S3 budget update for Eagle Ops

Since Eagle Ops is the first experiment of clustering multiple Squads into a guild, there are some lessons learned that we would like to share:

  • A guild should revising its budget in a timely manner, in order to provide transparency to stakeholders (short reasoning why a budget should remain the same or should be adjusted, should be enough)
  • We have learned that squads should start with the bare minimum of contributors for the work, as it is easier to expand than to reduce.
  • Having fewer contributors in a team will have (in general) a positive influence on accountability and performance

Based on the aforementioned learnings, the guild revised S2 internally and would like to propose a significant budget reduction of 49% (from $53.5k to $27.5k per month) for S3, according the following changes:

Ops Squad: As the focus shifts from facilitating day-to-day operations towards facilitating the DAO transition, we would like to reduce the budget significantly with 79% (from $12k to $2.5k per month)

Finance Squad: As the Squad managed to stay below 50% of the budget in S2 and it is not planning to expand in S3, we would like to reduce the S3 budget with 57% (from $18.5k to $8k per month)

Data Squad: As the product is not expected to launch in S3, we would like to reduce the budget with 30% (from $14.35k to 10k per month), and let the squad focus explicitly on the good work of the data dashboard.

Legal Squad: Based on S2’s experience, we are able to legal squad is able to reduce the budget with 36% (from $11k to $7k per month)

The guild is expected to only require $5k of funding in S3, as the Eagle Ops’s multisig still has $78k left from the S2 due to proper budget management (remaining funds of S3 will be transferred back to the Aragon treasury).

S3 Proposed KPIs for Eagle Ops

Hey Folks, due to my prior commitments, I will not be able to assist @AClay and the Ops team during Season 2. All the pending deliverables have been handed over to the concerned members of the team.

While most deliverables listed in the proposal were written keeping in mind Aragon Network DAO, it is fascinating to note how far the Aragon Project has come as it’s gearing up for its next phase with a new DAO altogether, Aragon DAO. Unfortunately, I won’t be around to participate in or assist the new DAO. However, I know the Ops team will continue to flourish.

All the best!

It’s great to have an overview of the direction Ops is heading - whether that’s as a collective Sub-DAO or separate Guilds - but for a financial proposal there’s a lot of information here, that imo is not relevant to the funding request..

.

Hey @carlzdooms this proposal is for the eagle ops that was associated with the AN DAO.

The AN DAO has been dissolved and the Aragon DAO has taken its place. Whereas the AN DAO was primarily outside contributors, the Aragon DAO is solely made up of Aragon Core Team members. If you would like to view the Ops proposal for the new Aragon DAO you can check it out here.

Exactly this @Shawncubbedge, thx!

@carlzdooms, if you have additional questions, feel free to ask them here or reach out to me in DM
