BFIP-03 Treasure ARB Allocation from TIP-28

Summary

Treasure DAO has recently put forth proposal TIP-28 (https://commonwealth.im/treasure-dao/discussion/11384-tip28-use-of-arb-for-game-studio-partnerships) to distribute a portion of their ARB airdrop to existing games within the Treasure ecosystem. BattleFly DAO has been potentially selected as a recipient of a share of this funding.

Should TIP-28 pass and BattleFly selected as a recipient, there has been discussion about if BattleFly should accept the funds (estimated to be less than 25,000 ARB) or ask that Treasure DAO distribute these funds to other Treasure projects.

This BFIP asks the community to resolve the discussion above via vote.

Please note that if TIP-28 does not pass in its current form or if BattleFly DAO is not given any allocation under TIP-28, BFIP-03 cannot be executed as outlined and will be discarded.

Rationale

Why to accept and what happens with the funds:

If BattleFly DAO votes to accept the ARB, it will be added to the existing ARB treasury and put towards the same goals.

The existing ARB has been primarily used to run community giveaways, special events, and act as an additional source of runway for the BattleFly projects including Battlegrounds and the Flywheel. This additional ARB will allow those and additional similar initiatives to be expanded depending on the total allocation received.

This option assumes that BattleFly DAO will make the best use of these funds to grow both the BattleFly community and Treasure DAO as a whole.

Why to decline and what happens with the funds:

If BattleFly DAO votes to decline the ARB, it will be with the request that Treasure DAO choose another reputable project(s) to receive our allocation.

BattleFly already has an existing ARB supply and reasonable runway. Asking this allocation to be given elsewhere would allow less advantaged projects to grow, ideally improving the quality of the Treasure ecosystem overall more substantially.

This option assumes a more distributed approach to funds will most effectively grow Treasure DAO and by extension BattleFly with the “a rising tide lifts all boats” philosophy.

Indicative Poll

Accept: Accept the ARB allocation from Treasure DAO Decline: Reject the ARB allocation from Treasure DAO and ask it be distributed to other reputable Treasure games more in need
