Vote 23: Risk Pod Vote (take two)

Summary

This proposes to establish a Pod that deals with risk aspects of Gro DAO and its product(s). The vote and options are refined after a previous failed vote. In this vote, two proposals are being put forward by four different facilitator candidates. These proposals vary in scope, structure, and budget so please read them carefully. If a facilitator(s) is elected, then they will be empowered to act within the remit and budget they have requested from the DAO. If all proposals are rejected, further discussions will be held in the forum/Discord to refine the proposals of existing candidates, and search for additional candidates.

Background

As part of Gro DAO’s podification, DAO members have proposed contributing to risk, as well as treasury and strategy work streams (through drafted proposals both on Discord and in the forum). Three proposals were rejected in vote 22 due to a number of reasons (aggressive budget requests, different proposal durations and lacking standardisation). The request for proposals was refined for this new vote. There are two proposals with different complexity, but both have the same duration and both explicitly have 1st party coverage of risk.

Risk pod Candidates

1. Proposal 1: Rex’s Risk Pod Proposal 1 part-time contributor, focusing strictly on operational and security risks. Budget: $60k + 80k GRO Duration: 6 months

2. Proposal 2: Bernard, Pavel and Exa’s joint Risk, Strategy and Finance Pod Proposal 3 part-time contributors (sharing the facilitator role), combining multiple aspects of risk, finance/treasury strategy, and business strategy. Budget: $110k + 120k GRO Duration: 6 months

Next Steps

This vote is a ranked preference vote and will run for 5 days.
