Community Support and Educators

Community Support and Educators

ABSTRACT

This DAO proposal aims to establish a Community Support Educators for Keepers and Guardians Role within the “Crypto Unicorns” community, leveraging the power of decentralized governance. By creating a self-sustaining educational ecosystem, this proposal seeks to empower community members with the knowledge and support they need to navigate the cryptocurrency landscape successfully.

With the implementation of a streamlined community support and engagement culture, Guardians and Keepers are able to attract and retain existing users. By cultivating a good community based support system, we can ensure continued participation from everyone in the community to help one another. As the Community space grows, this will become crucial in retaining outstanding community members. We have the opportunity here to pave the way for a better community driven support group and contributors.

It is imperative to ensure Guardians & Keepers are rewarded to provide upward mobility, and discourage any rogue behavior due to the loss of meaningful reward and career trajectory.

MOTIVATION

Guardians and Keepers derive from a diverse range of individuals to provide guidance and education in this complex field for newcomers. However we are on the bleeding edge of Tech and the availability of reliable and accessible educational resources often falls short. By implementing a Community Support Educators for Guardians and Keepers within a DAO framework, we can foster a collaborative and decentralized approach to education, ensuring members receive accurate and up-to-date information while promoting peer-to-peer support.

DETAILS

This proposal is to reward Guardians and Keepers that continue to contribute to the Crypto Unicorns community. Ideally the expected timeline is this proposal to run for 6 months.

The Support Educators team will work together to accomplish 24h coverage as stated below.

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

  • Respond to tickets and questions from the community, identify and resolve issues
  • Escalate complex issues to appropriate managers or specialists
  • Monitor, escalate and track ticket resolution progress

NEWCOMER ONBOARDING

  • Establish a dedicated support circle within the community, where Educators can address inquiries, concerns, and technical questions from members.

LOCALIZATION

  • Localize support for Non-English Communities.
  • Localize Translation for Non-English Communities

We expect the proposal to run immediately by 1st August 2023 if it passes the DAO Vote. If it’s rejected or needs further revision then it will start immediately on the month that it is able to pass.

SAFE GUARD

Guardians has always been a group initiative from the start and with this proposal. There will be a system to safeguard the Guardian circle from abuse. One of them will be a strict onboarding process that will require an interview by the Guardians and CM team, as well as a vote from the Guardian circle as the community grows.

  • An announcement when it is appropriate to receive a new intake from the CM Team.
  • There will be a 1 month trial period.
  • An interview with the new intake among other Guardians, Keepers and the CM team. A unanimous decision will be made among the Guardians and Keepers.

REPORTING & MANAGEMENT

At present, the Guardians and Keepers use a Clock In Bot to track the progress of activity, and output that’s been done. Including an activity tracker recorded from the CM Team monthly.

Together, we track and evaluate the program’s activities and effectiveness, as well as make sure Guardians and Keeper are being rewarded for their contributions.

Reward 100 USD of RBW 500 USD of RBW

USD$500 of RBW for Tier 2
USD$100 of RBW for Tier 1

  • As the price of RBW fluctuates significantly, we believe a stable-value reward system is key to retaining talent who may rely on this income for daily expenses.
  • Hence, we propose denominating the monthly reward pool in USD for the required RBW from the ECOSYSTEM FUND on a monthly basis for a 6 month runway.
  • There is no fixed amount of RBW requested in the proposal, so we are specifying a time period of 6 months within which a renewal or an updated proposal must be generated. 6 months gives us time to evaluate and prepare for the next round of funding.

A month before this proposal ends, the same or an updated proposal will be submitted to the Crypto Unicorns community for their feedback and what can be improved. This initial 6 month run should provide an indication on improving the community experience.

CONCLUSION

Implementing the Community Support Educators role within a DAO structure will revolutionize community support and education within the “Crypto Unicorns” community. By leveraging the collective knowledge and experiences of Educators, we can create a self-sustaining educational ecosystem that promotes learning, collaboration, and empowerment. This proposal aims to foster a strong and inclusive community where members can rely on accurate information, receive timely support, and engage in meaningful discussions.

We believe that this proposal will have a significant positive impact on the “Crypto Unicorns” community. We look forward to discussing the implementation details and receiving your feedback. Please feel free to drop your comments/feedback in this Forum thread.

Hi @IslandGurl, thanks for the great question.

This proposal is open to all existing and future Guardians and Keepers on Discord. However, reward will be allocated based on the highest tier they qualified for.

Base on previous term record from Jan-Jun 2023 . Tier 2 is averaging at 7 per month while Tier 1 average at 1 per month. In total we have 6 Guardian and 5 Keepers currently.

Thanks Terra!

How many Tier 1 and Tier 2 G’s/K’s are you proposing, per month, for it to run smoothly?

@IslandGurl At the moment, the current amount of Guardians is suffice but we lack support for the Mandarin/Chinese community. :thinking:

There are certain aspects that make it challenging to quantify accurately. The Guardian/Keeper Circle is designed as a community support circle, where members come together to provide assistance and help to each other. One of the beautiful aspects of such a circle is its potential for growth over time. As the community grows as more people join, the level of support and engagement may naturally expand as well. :slightly_smiling_face:

Attempting to quantify the Guardian Circle could inadvertently oversimplify the dynamics and value it brings for this proposal. :thinking:

Our priority is to foster an inclusive and supportive circle, and attempting to quantify such a dynamic and evolving circle might not capture the true essence of its potential. Nonetheless, appreciate your concerns in evaluating the proposal. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Thanks for the additional information. Hopefully we start having more growth and more need. :slight_smile:
