Proposal #5: Temporary Tier Access without DCB Staking

Introduction

Great news for everyone in the Decubate community! We're proposing a new rule that shows our dedication to making our digital economy more open and active for all.

Here's Governance Proposal #5': Temporary Tier Access without DCB Staking. This proposal is about letting people temporarily reach different tier levels without needing to stake or lock up the usual number of DCB as they are normally required.

Why this vote?

It's simple. We don’t want to make changes to our platform without first consulting our valued users, you! We're considering including this functionality to work toward a more diversified and democratic ecosystem where opportunities aren't always just for the big players. This initiative aligns perfectly with our ethos of opening up avenues for community engagement and enabling a wider array of stakeholders to participate in some events they might otherwise be unable to access.

As such, the approval of this proposal empowers us to create exciting marketing campaigns and engage potential partners without impacting the DCB token's stability, aligning with our vision to continually evolve and grow the platform.

Expected implications

We see a number of main pros and cons to implementing this functionality, which are listed below.

Pros:

• Events and giveaways: Temporary higher-tier giveaways for randomly selected winners of an event. A winner of an event can get a higher tier for an upcoming IDO on Decubate without them receiving any DCB tokens and us risking selling pressure.
• Demo our platform to partners/KOLs/customers: Decubate partners/customers/KOLs often want to better understand the details of our platform. To properly test out our platform for one time, we can grant them access to a tier, again, without risking any selling pressure afterward. This can help us close deals with partners/KOLs/customers.

Cons:

• Unfair: Users who’ve saved up to get a higher tier might feel disadvantaged when other users are getting a tier without staking/investing (in) DCB.
• DCB utility: Decubate enhances the efficiency of DCB's use by providing an additional route for obtaining tier status, occasionally circumventing the need for staking DCB in specific scenarios.

Voting options

Option 1: Allow temporary tier changes without staking the normally required DCB. Option 2: Do not allow temporary tier changes without staking DCB.

Let us know what you think!

Whatever the outcome of this governance vote, it is important to mention that increasing tiers for users without the required staked amount will only be used in rare cases and, therefore, will not be the norm.

Remember, your vote directly shapes the future of Decubate. This is your opportunity to influence how we democratize access and unlock the full potential of our platform. Together, let's create a more inclusive future for the decentralized economy!
