Proposal: Admit Government Relations Consultants to ATX DAO

Author(s): @johnm

In our first government event, ATX DAO connected with policymakers to explain our mission. We offered our organization as an educational resource, and introduced our network of Austin-based Web3 professionals. In organizing the event, our Marketing team also connected with experienced consultants familiar with the local political landscape.

With the strength of our community and collective experience, ATX DAO now has the opportunity to advocate blockchain technology to local and state governments in service of continuing technological innovation, democratization of our communities, and the public good.

This proposal is aimed at providing a membership track to political consultants Nate Walker and Jacob Smith on the basis of their substantial support of these efforts and their expertise in local government.

Be it resolved that:

• Given Nate and Jacob’s contribution to organizing our local government event, both will be whitelisted to mint Zilker round NFTs (at the most recent round’s mint cost) on the passage of this proposal.

• Should they prefer to contribute additional consultation in exchange for membership, they will be eligible to mint NFTs at no cost (except that of gas fees) following two additional weeks of consultation with ATX DAO, given that they continue to materially advise our team during that time.

Be it further resolved that:

• The Membership and Operations committees will collaborate to create a set of standards for future case-by-case admissions, with an aim to promote fairness and meritocracy in selecting new members for specific focus areas.
