Bluebonnet Round Airdrop Decision

A clause in The Bluebonnet Membership Round proposal reads: "Upon the approval of this proposal, a snapshot will be taken of all unique wallet addresses that have participated in voting on any proposal since February 2022. Each eligible wallet will be airdropped a Bluebonnet round NFT as a token of appreciation and recognition for their involvement in ATX DAO's decision-making processes.” This clause was informed by precedent (of the 24 Genesis members, 12 were airdropped Zilker Round NFTs as a reward for building out the initial iteration of the DAO).

Recent discussion has revealed that members of the organization hold concerns about whether to proceed with this airdrop because it could be viewed as unfair to incoming new members (skewing voting power to incumbents) and it increases the total supply of NFTs. This has also led to discussing the potential of flattening votes entirely so that no matter how many NFTs a wallet holds, they have a max of 1 vote. This is a topic warranting further discussion because the technical aspects require more examination.

In response, the airdrop has been justified as a way to reward early contributors and future-proof governance decisions for the longevity of ATX DAO.

This proposal is meant to determine how ATX DAO should proceed.

Should we:

1. Allow any current members to trade an existing NFT for a Bluebonnet NFT and cancel the airdrop
2. Move forward with the airdrop as-is

Additional Notes:

• No matter which option is selected, this proposal also seeks to add royalties to sales of the membership NFT on the secondary market.
• If the ATX DAO decides to proceed with the airdrop, there will be a limited window in which existing members can claim their Bluebonnet NFT
