Spice Cube Contributor Funding Request
Author: Spice Cube
Up to:
Paid bimonthly for 4 months (August - November)
Stewardship team may cancel this agreement at any point.
Community may submit a proposal to cancel this agreement at any point.
### Scope of Work
A stream request is designed to give contributors freedom and encouragement to work across multiple domains across the DAO; however, here are the current main focuses / intentions:
Governance 2.0 UX / Systems — Citizen 0
Our git-based governance is an ever-growing body of “law” that will require constant iteration. The structure allows for extremely flexible forms and growth and change over time, but this is an ongoing feedback loop require participation.
There’s a learning curve, and it’s not an option for only 2-3 people to know how to use it.
My plan is to be “Citizen 0” and lead the charge by (1) setting up processes to smooth the transition to our “git-based” Governance 2.0 that allow greater participation via minimal friction, and (2) help increase the sophistication of the governance state itself.
This includes and starts with building processes that have differing degrees of friction and process based on their potential risks/repercussions/reversibility to the governance state.
### Specification
This contributor may submit a request for up to the specified amount based on self-assessment of their work.
### Intention
This is intended to encourage contributors to take immediate action on a wide range of problems/opportunities, as opposed to proceeding through the slower process of submitting a proposal for a narrow scope of work.
We prefer to invest in and groom talent, giving them the freedom and capital they need to be entrepreneurs within our community. We value self-starters who are able to take action and deliver quality work.

Both the community and the Stewardship team has the power to cancel this stream if it is being abused. In addition, if a contributor abuses this trust, they are effectively burning their social credibility and ability to successfully submit proposals in the future. We expect some lossiness; however, we believe the benefits of getting good work off the ground is worth this small cost.
