Discuss Next Proposal / Next Steps

Thanks - this is just merely brainstorming as to what the next proposal(s) should be.

Issues remaining:

  1. DAO Mission
    The current mission of the DAO is arguably complete, The mission of the AssangeDAO is to inspire a powerful solidarity network and fight for the freedom of Julian Assange.

    That’s why I think it’s wise to vote on a new mission and to include the option of Mission Success, to close the DAO, however it is clear that this option would have very little support unless the DAO was able to refund current Justice holders a significant amount, which the treasury does not have.

  2. Consensus Unit Clarification
    Now that Gabriel is on the Multisig, some community members think we should vote on whether to leave a consensus unit in place or to remove it. I personally think it is wise to see what Gabriel thinks before we put this to a vote.

    Gabriel Shipton:
    The consensus unit as part of Julian’s family, are his voice in the DAO and we represent his wishes and best interests until a time where he can do so on his own.
    AIP-12: Consensus Unit Comment

  3. Wau Holland issue
    The DAO voted in AIP-16 to choose a list of proposals to start with and the community decided to go with:

    Proposal:Request for the Return of 3,681.59 ETH from Wau Holland Foundation to the AssangeDAO Treasury

    What are the next steps for this? It appears that Wau has 3681 eth still remaining.

    The GTU heard from Gabriel that he thinks that there is very little chance of Wau Holland being able to send any funds to the DAO.

    I also think that is unlikely that Wau Holland could send any remaining funds to the DAO

    Does the DAO have to draft a letter to Wau Holland still?

    If Wau Holland says no they cannot send any of the remaining Eth to the DAO, do we ask them if they are willing to use it to fund to DAO-proposed projects that align with our mission and theirs?

  4. NFT Sale
    The Clock NFT sold for over $50 million to AssangeDAO - however the community thinks that if the Clock NFT sold again, it would get much less. The second highest bid I believe was from Jesse Powell (4,242 ETH).

    I believe that if we found partners we could sell/auction the NFT for a significant amount.

  5. DAO Governance - moving to Fully On Chain such as Tally
    Silke has suggested this multiple times.

  6. Launching Projects / Apps

  7. Appointing leaders, community moderators, outreach teams, developers, and other positions.

We have to think about the order of these steps, for example, we could do it in this order:

  1. Meet with Gabriel to discuss Consensus Unit, as it represents Julian’s voice in the DAO.
  2. Draft an Open letter to Wau to request return of funds
  3. Vote on sale of Clock NFT (or not)
  4. Vote on a new DAO mission
  5. Move to fully on-chain governance
  6. Community re-engagement / recruitment / appointing people to various positions to expand leadership roles and other roles
  7. Launching Projects

If I am missing anything main issues that the community needs to vote on still, let me know.
