Vote Reasons & Discussion

Benbodhi | "Thoughtful and skilful giga brains. ⌐◨-◨"

Wattsy | "These are not industry standard salaries, they are much higher."

Mach | "Voting yes, but will be looking at the work done. I do not think that 450,000 per year in work has been done so far. Expect big contributions over the next 6 months."

Mindtoasted | "I proudly vote yes on this, the previous proposal went smoothly. A concrete team with a vision."

Coral Orca | "we like the verbs"

These are incredibly important people to the DAO and work on significant protocol upgrades, from gas efficiency to core DAO behavior like governance and treasury spending. I also think the compensation is fair for this type of role and the quality of engineers the Verbs team (and Solimander) are.

Big supporter of these guys. Very thoughtful and skilled. Amazing asset to the DAO. ⌐◨-◨

Verbs is important, possibly the most important technical team funded by the DAO.

Verbs makes a lot of money.

Verbs should be used as a ceiling for technical team compensation, at least in cases where there isn't a specific project being funded but more of a "residency" for the DAO, unless there is very specific reason why it should be increased. We should keep this benchmark in mind when funding/renewing future residencies.

We love the Verbs.

need to keep improving the base nouns protocol.
