Summary:
This proposal aims to compensate Liqwid’s 5 Community Managers for their work in Discord moderating community discussion, answering questions and providing insightful feedback based on user requests. In many cases Community Managers serve as the first point of contact new users interact with when assessing Liqwid protocol for their specific needs or inquiring into the Liqwid protocol’s design and implementation. Liqwid’s Discord server is the central venue for community members to discuss current topics, ideate governance topics and discuss Liqwid and Cardano DeFi specific points. It’s critical this central venue for collaboration and discussion amongst Liqwid community members remains properly moderated.
The Community Manager role began as a volunteer-based role but has grown in moderation responsibilities necessitating payment for the role. Most CM’s spend meaningful hours each week actively engaging with the Liqwid community on the Discord server. As the Liqwid ecosystem grows with new community members joining daily the Community Managers are asked to take on a leading role in assisting new users, helping answer their questions as they complete initial market actions in the app or inquire about specific protocol functionality.
To date the Liqwid Community Managers have received a 200 ADA monthly payment from Liqwid Labs for this work.
Proposal Actions:
-
Continue the 200 ADA monthly payment to Liqwid Community Managers with the funding now originating from the Liqwid protocol’s monthly revenue.
-
Complete a one-time payment of 1,400 ADA to each of the 5 Liqwid Community Managers (7,000 ADA total) representing the past 7 months of Community Manager monthly payments which have not been paid out yet.
Technical Consideration:
This proposal’s actions do not include any component that requires technical consideration.
Conclusion:
The Community Manager role which began as a volunteer-based role has grown in scope of responsibilities to become the leading resource and first point of contact for new users. As a result of this growth in role responsibilities the Community Managers has received a 200 ADA monthly payment to date paid for by Liqwid Labs funds. The actions in this proposal include 1. future Community Manager payments to originate from Liqwid monthly revenues and 2. completion of a one-time payment of 1,400 ADA to each of the 5 Liqwid Community Managers (7,000 ADA total) representing the past 7 months of Community Manager monthly payments.
