-= What is Delos HQ? =-

Firstly, Project Delos-- it is the umbrella project and a series of initiatives to empower the Saddle community.

Delos HQ is the pioneer community “syndicate” (i.e. subDAO with grant+multisig) that is being created with the focus of growing and nurturing the Saddle community.

Delos HQ will be a 7 member multisig. Syndicate term length is 1 year.

-= The multisig will have the following “territories” (i.e. powers / responsibilities / objectives) =-

• Lead and collaborate on initiatives for growing, identifying, or rewarding engaged Saddle community members
• Identifying rising leaders in the community and matching them with opportunities for participation in Project Delos (including yet-to-be-created syndicates and territories), bounties4bandits, Saddle Creators, and future community-oriented initiatives.
• Deploying Delos HQ grant funds to facilitate above efforts (1 million SDL to start).

-= How Do Syndicate Elections Work? =-

1. SDL Token holders will vote on Snapshot. This vote is a Weighted vote that allows you to vote for multiple candidates. Each voter may spread their voting power across any number of choices.
2. Top 7 individuals with the most votes will be elected to Delos HQ.
3. Ties on the token holder snapshots will be determined by separate Discord-based votes.
4. There will be SDL token grants for all individuals elected to Delos HQ to compensate these community members for their time and contributions. Grant size will be determined and approved by SDL token holders as an early proposal.
5. SDL token holders may put up a vote to remove syndicate members from Delos HQ if necessary before the 1 year term is up and are responsible for electing future syndicate members.

Members of Delos HQ will play a crucial role in the growth and success of the greater Saddle DAO. These members will be the well that nourishes; the lighthouse that seeks and finds; the genesis syndicate from which a whole metaverse will sprout.
