#30 Proposal: Ratify Nation3's first Constitution

#28 Proposal: Allow up to 9 $NATION to be spent on rewarding top Constitution edit proposals

Background As we are in the phase of actively seeking feedback for the Constitution from the wider Web3 community, I’d like to ask for up to 9 $NATION to be used for rewarding best proposals (new clauses or significant clause edits) that make it to the final version of the Constitution. This will primarily be used to incentivise participation from outside communities, such as Proof of Humanity, BanklessDAO, CityDAO and others. Proposal Enable 3.nation3.eth, which already has 30 $NATION , to ...

#27 Formation of the Solar Guild & Roadmap Proposal

This is the suggested roadmap for the Solar Guild, a guild composed of a handful of laser-focused full-time members. Intro Why: All the other guilds are semi-open and mostly composed of part-time members. That structure works very well in some cases like maintainance of existing products, adding scoped features and performing research. However, two-pizza teams with full-time members excel in efficient product prototyping, fast-paced iterations and tight vertical integrations. Nation3 has the o...

#26 Proposal: Allow 12.6 $NATION to be spent on sponsoring citizenship Constitution reviewers

Background There is now a draft for Nation3’s first Constitution, necessary to launch the Nation3 Jurisdiction. However, this document needs thorough review. Some lawyers with Web3 background have been participating in the process. Proposal Enable 3.nation3.eth, which already has 30 $NATION, to spend 12.6 of those $NATION on sponsoring Genesis Passports for lawyers who have helped/help review the Constitution draft. 3.nation3.eth would send 2.1 $NATION to lawyers who have helped review the...

#25 Proposal to amend prevailing variables to secure Solar Guild funding

As the market conditions continue to change at a very fast pace (including the requirements posed by lenders), the Meta Guild requests to amend the constraints of the fundraise for Solar Guild (original proposal can be found here and amendment here), whereby these two parameters would prevail over previous proposals: the Meta guild will raise up to 370,000 USDC loan for Solar Guild funding the Meta guild can offer up to 500% collateralisation ratio (or 2573 $NATION, whichever is higher) at its...

#24 Proposal: re-finance to cover the approaching repayment of $50k bond

Background On August 2nd, @Luis made a proposal to raise a $50k bond to fund work on approved community proposals denominated in USDC. The proposal was approved and resulted in a successful bond issuance. The term of the bond was 90 days, and its maturity date is approaching in 15 days (on 07/12/2022). The bond was collateralised with 150 $NATION. The bond was raised with a reasoning that the market conditions were not optimal for the DAO to sell $NATION, and that it was sensible that such sa...

#23 Proposal: approve up to an additional 1200 $NATION to collateralise the bond for Solar Guild funding

Given the difficult market conditions, the valuation of $NATION is changing by the day, making it difficult to estimate the exact amount of $NATION required to collateralise the requested bond amount. Since the original proposal was published, market conditions have deteriorated, and the proposed 1300 $NATION is no longer sufficient to provide the initially proposed 250% collateralisation ratio. Because of time required for each governance approval, it is difficult to request an exact amount o...

#22 Proposal: Issue over-collateralized bond to raise 370,000 USDC for Solar Guild funding

Background A proposal has been made to establish the Solar Guild - a “two-pizza team” comprised of full-time members exclusively focused on advancing the Nation3 mission. Specifically, according to the recently published roadmap, the Guild would focus on: efficiently bringing to market new products like the Court; issuing the next iteration of Passports; drafting the Nation3 Constitution; establishing the Guardian Guild; integrating all Nation3 apps into one monorepo; maintaining key infrastr...

#21 Proposal: 🕵 Research Guild (Q4 2022) - N3BI

Objective The objective of this proposal is to do research and refinement of a Nation3 Basic Income (“N3BI”), as a temporary project within the 🕵 Research Guild. The proposal builds upon the thoughts already published by @anastasiya in UBI as a public good - or unleashing human creativity and @0xGallego’s feedback given in Proposal: 🧧 Basic Income for Nation3 Citizens. “Introduce UBI for Nation3 citizens” is one of the Phase 1 milestones listed on the Nation3 website: N...

#20 Nation3 Flag Campaign to Activate the Community and Allocate 50 of the Remaining Genesis Passports

Background We’ve all been busy building and focusing on the fundamentals the past few months. This has resulted in: the release of the most robust governance system DAOs have ever seen; implementation of passports-in-passbook, which allows push notifications and, alongside the ‘designated-signer’ feature contributes to seamless governance experience; the issuance of the first ever cloud nation bond; a framework for interconnected, reusable legal agreements; the introduction of Nation3 North S...

#19 Proposal: 🧧 Basic Income for Nation3 Citizens

To make it more attractive to become a Nation3 passport holder, we can introduce a type of Universal Basic Income (UBI) for Nation3 citizens. This is a proposal to spend 0.086% of the total $NATION supply on building a Basic Income for Nation3 Citizens (“N3BI” for short). The proposal builds upon the thoughts already published in UBI as a public good - or unleashing human creativity Basic Functionality All 420 GENESIS passport holders will be eligible to receive Basic Income for Nation3 C...

#18 Proposal: Set Q4 2022 goals

If the North Star metrics governance proposal passes, the next logical step is to define how to measure those metrics and set goals to meet in the next quarter. In terms of criteria to measure, I would propose: Number of active citizens: Citizens with a NationCred score higher than X during the last 4 weeks of the quarter Value secured by the Nation3 jurisdiction: Equivalent amount of BTC staked in Collateral Agreements secured by Nation3 Court. Measuring in USD makes us prone to market ext...

#17 Proposal: Revoke allowances for $NATION airdrops

Months have passed since the airdrop was launched, so I’d propose to revoke the allowances for the airdrop contract and call it a day! Pull request to the gov-proposals repo.

#metaApproved

#16 Proposal: All governance proposals must explain how they help advance the North Star metrics

This is very self-descriptive, but it’s a nice add-on to Proposal: Set Nation3's North Star metrics. We have seen too many times how DAOs end up with endless bureaucracy because there’s no room for execution amidst chaos and uncertainty. Therefore having a unified set of metrics to advance, and making all governance proposals adhere to advancing them, makes sense. This is the pull request to the governance proposals repo, and this is the specific change.

#15 Proposal: Set Nation3's North Star metrics

A North Star metric is paramount since it aligns everyone in the nation towards a particular, measurable goal. Everything we do should then be aligned with such metric. While we already have the Nation3 Manifesto establishing the vision and the moral compass, a manifesto isn’t measurable per se. This proposal aims for Nation3 to adopt the following North Star metrics: Number of active citizens: The ethos of the Nation3 Manifesto is that we need to re-imagine nation states so people can enjo...

#14 Proposal: Issue over-collateralized bond to raise 50,000 USDC

Background Given the current market circumstances, it’s not ideal to sell $NATION. Even more so knowing that GSR became the official $NATION market maker and might start work on increasing market liquidity soon. In other words, it would seem that the DAO selling $NATION should be postponed until a further price and liquidity increase. But in the meantime, there are multiple proposals that have passed and are denominated in USDC. Those commitments currently amount to 90k USDC over the next few ...

#13 Proposal: Formalize Nation3 governance process

When I cofounded Aragon in 2016, we thought that DAOs would be managed under one tool supporting the end-to-end lifecycle of governance. We got lots of assumptions right, but that clearly wasn’t one of them! Today, DAOs are managed by using a bunch of tools, from off-chain discussions in forums to signaling tools like Snapshot and then on-chain enactment with Aragon. With such wide range of tools, the actual content of the proposals and how they affect the DAO’s assets and resources can get lo...

#12 Funding Proposal: Nation3 Court V1

In response to Open Call for Projects and Guild Roadmaps Nation3 Court System V1 Original rational by @luis : Nation3 court: A backbone to bootstrap a circular economy by increasing trust between citizens Goals & Scope The goal of the Nation3 Court project it’s to provide a system that allows the creation of collateral agreements between two or more non-trusted parties that will be arbitrated by a trusted third party in the case of a dispute. This project’s scope is to research, design & d...

#9 GSR Market Making Proposal

GSR Market Making Proposal <> Nation3(NATION) This proposal outlines the indicative terms of an agreement for market-making services (the “Agreement”) to be provided by GSR Markets Limited (“GSR”) for the NATION token, and provides relevant background on GSR. The aim of this proposal is to seek approval for a loan of 2,104 NATION tokens, which would be used by GSR to provide liquidity across a set of specifically-supported venues. GSR: Who are we? Founded in 2013, GSR is a crypto market-maker...

#8 Proposal: Renew multi-sig inactive spot

Context Recently the members of the Meta & Rewards guilds decided to merge under the common umbrella of the Meta Guild, that from now on will be responsible for Finance & Operations. One of the primary responsibilities of the rewards guild was to operate the multi-sig that performs payments for bounties, community distributions (through NationCred), and, lately, contributors’ compensations. To ensure the guild can perform financial operations efficiently, we need to have the most active contr...

#7 Contributor Project Proposal

Hey everyone, Wanted to share this as a draft version and get your feedback before proposing the budget. Below I have listed out the things I’d like to work on for the next 3 months, based on what I think adds the most value at current stage. The issue I ran into is that if I were to split it into separate Guild roadmaps, this would probably span across at least 3 different guilds, some of which currently don’t have any / almost any active members. So that would mean drafting multiple separat...

#5 Partnership with BanklessDAO

Last week I had a chat with one of the Bankless Community members, who is responsible for cross-DAO collaborations. We discussed different ways in which Nation3 could collaborate with BanklessDAO with the purpose of: community cross-pollination educating the Bankless community on Nation3 mission introducing ways for them to get involved in practice In my view, the Bankless community is one of the largest, ideologically aligned communities in the ecosystem, and their members are very knowledge...

#4 Proposal to design the dopest ever Nation3 swag 🚀

As Nation3 has marked its birth 5 days ago, it’s already winning the hearts and minds of thousands of community members. To continue building on this momentum and generate a deeper sense of belonging, I’d like to propose the creation of dopest swag ever created. Why? Because at the end of the day, Nation3 is a movement centered around culture - the culture of freedom, peace and prosperity. Read the proposal for specific pieces of swag below: Swag Types I would like to propose two types of de...

#3 Proposal: Set up initial rewards guild

Background DAOs need to do work, and they rely on contributors to do so. A marvelous product released lately is Dework, which is pretty much the product that I always wanted myself for DAOs to manage tasks and payouts (disclaimer: I helped the founders with product ideation and I’m an investor). Proposal I have already set up a Nation3 workspace on Dework, and allowed for contributors to make suggestions, and also in the future we can allow citizens to post new tasks, etc. In order to make ...

#2 Proposal: Perform minimal treasury diversification

Background Right now the DAO is very well capitalized, but it just holds NATION and some ETH. NATION is the most important asset for the DAO to hold, as it’s the heart of the community when it comes to economic alignment. ETH is also fine as it’s the platform that makes this all possible. However, the DAO might need some other tokens in order to hedge market risk, and also to pay certain providers that would only take fiat, therefore needing stablecoins (to interact with the physical world). ...

#1 Proposal to launch Liquidity Rewards

Background On April 8th 2022, Nation3 was born as a movement towards a peaceful future of interconnected communities: cloud countries and crypto cities powered by the Web3 stack. To mark its birth, today 2150 $NATION have been distributed in a tweetdrop to 2150 addresses. Today, these 2150 members constitute the core of the Nation3 community, and some of them will become Genesis Citizens and receive the first ever Nation3 passports, granting them the right to govern the cloud nation in its bic...
