Summary

Proposal to Setup the Supervisor Council

Members of this council are paid minimally. $500 a month. in fox

The Bills are paid in Stable (or other as desired/needed) usually usdc currently.

Goal: 1 -3 members of this council, covering all of the bills.

All bills to fall into this groups control as able.

Background:

Current bills are paid by various contributors. Workstream Leaders usually taking on this burden.

Abstract:

This proposal formalizes the bill paying aspect of the DAO under one group for responsiblity and tracking.

Benefits:

Bills are paid and tracked in one place. Shared between the members of this Council, and the DAO.

One place that we know the bills are paid. no guesswork, no worry if a bill was forgotten about. if someone leaves their position, there are others to cover the bills, knowing it wasnt paid. (monthly meeting for these members) one member to report to ..DFC (or leadership?both?) (async?)

-

Drawbacks:

(need drawbacks)

Vote

A vote of Yes will establish the Supervisor Committee as defined above, and formalize the role as a paid role of the ShapeShift DAO with FOX compensation in the amount of $500 per month. Sent to Hedgey via the payout sheet. (this too low? wanting to keep interest in doing this job.)

A vote of No rejects this proposal and its changes

Yes, but change: Same as yes above, but with some edits, posted in forum, or directly to poster.

I’m not quite sure the cost incurred by the DAO (up to $1500 per month in FOX if I read correctly) would be worth something that has always been the responsibility of the Workstream Leaders who are the ones who budget and usually order such services?

Can you outline the cases in which the current per-Workstream system fails and how that cost would be justified?

this is so that someone that is not leadership, doing the bills, is reimbursed some small amount for their time.

This has fallen onto leadership currently, as the Foundation has closed down. They were paying the bills at the previous points.

as the teams slim down farther, this hidden cost can be moved to its own thing, and tracked better.

Also as transitions happen, things would get forgotten/lost. This is hopefully to prevent that.

I’m aware this, but my question is why doesn’t this continue to be the responsibility of Workstream leaders, including the new services the Foundation cannot handle anymore. At the scale we are and with this austerity period, I don’t see how this makes sense currently.

I’m aware it takes time and sometimes even a legal structure to pay these bills, so these costs should be factored in, but in my opinion it should be in each Workstream’s budget, administrative costs + actual service costs.

I also have no idea how that council would fund their payments of said bills, the ones already handled by WS Leaders currently are part of each WS’s budget so they’d need to transfer these funds to members of that council first?

I’m not inherently against this, but it seems a bit light on the details for now.

it is light on details. it was a rough draft. :slight_smile:

things gotta be answered. i have if/ors there

one was $1k a month/500 a month. i thought 500 was more better.

What are the thoughts around FIAT bill paying? how much of that remains? could this+DFC be combined to help increase scope of DFC?

fiat bill paying

and cryptp paying

all bills. would be in this group.

better organized in one spot. (spreadsheets/docs whatever)

2 members, so that the bill info/payment stuff is shared.

so if one is missing when a bill is due and needs paid… it can be done.

(redundancy)

i listed the bills im paying for with my company cc

Apo has a setup

Tyler has a setup

FBL’s stuff is being handed off (or shut down)

i dont know who is handling what bills.

(which is a large part of the problem)

if we dont know what bills there are, and someone leaves…

something is unpaid. it stops. something breaks.

do you have a spreadsheet tracking these?

11

for mine, yes.

but not the others. (course mine is more of a payout sheet)

if this council was setup, should be done better, with more info.

balances ofc, but Bill amounts/freq and the cc info used.

12

if intent is have this take over all fiat bill paying, we should probably consoldate that list into one. can @tyler @apo both provide their list of items for this proposal?

13

that would be ideal! Thanks!

i’ll have to ask, i think we have a start on old
