This is awesome. Read it in full.

This should answer a lot of questions people have about voting process and answer why or why not their grant passed.

If any upcoming grantees have questions about the application process or experience feel free to reach out to me ! I’m happy to help

Thanks for the detailed guide @AG42

A few transparency questions that would be helpful to address in the guide:

CoC Members: Could you list the current CoC committee members?

Vote Records: Are CoC grant voting decisions viewable by the JUP community?

Quarterly Reports: Are these reports accessible to the broader JUP community?

Ultimately up to you guys whether or not to include this but it would enhance transparency and community engagement within the JUP DAO grants program.

Hi Matto! Thank you for the suggestions! I’d like to provide a few clarifications.

@matto

CoC Members: Could you list the current CoC committee members?

Any Cat of Culture can participate in the grants discussion and voting process. I’m not quite sure if the list of Cats of Culture is available outside of Discord, but we’ll discuss it with Catdets Work Group.

@matto

Vote Records: Are CoC grant voting decisions viewable by the JUP community?

All the vote records are available at JUP Catdets, but again, this is CAWG’s domain, so I am not sure about visibility settings. Will be discussed.

@matto

Quarterly Reports: Are these reports accessible to the broader JUP community?

Yep, all CWG Quarterly Reports are available here:

CWG Quarterly Report #1

Intro As promised back after the initial CWG Budget Proposal passed, one of the items we would adhere to is releasing a quarterly report that would serve as an aggregate update of all of the things we’ve worked on for the past 3 months. This would become a community touchpoint and provide a proper orientation opportunity for the Workgroups to address what is working and where they want to go next. Ideally this is to become a standard for all Workgroups going forward and provide a benefit to th…

CWG Quarterly Report #2

Intro As promised in the original CWG Budget Proposal, we’re excited to present our second quarterly report. This report aggregates our updates and accomplishments from the past three months, serving as both a community touchpoint and an opportunity for reflection for the CWG to move forward into the next quarter. And If you’d like to refresh on the first quarterly report, you may do so here In this 2nd issue of the Quarterly Report, there are 4 sections: Vision for the DAO and the CWG Task…

CWG Quarterly Report #3

Intro As was promised in the original proposal for the Core Work Group, we’re excited to present the third and final quarterly report. This report serves as an aggregate and description of the activities, updates and accomplishments of the CWG in these last few months — offering us both a community touchpoint and opportunity for reflection as a whole. If you’d like to read the prior 2 quarterly reports, you may do so here and here. In this 3rd issue of the Quarterly Report, there are 4 section…

Again, thanks a lot for the suggestions! Added them to the backlog for the next interation.

I fully support the JUP DAO Contributors’ Mega Guide proposal. This comprehensive guide is a vital resource for WGs, Grant Groups, and aspiring contributors, providing clear guidance on expectations, processes, and best practices. It streamlines key areas like grant applications, proposal formats, and voting procedures, fostering transparency and fairness in DAO governance. The case studies on J&J, Devrel, and Design offer valuable insights, while sections on collaboration and revenue guidelines strengthen community ties.

To enhance its impact, I suggest establishing a process for regular updates to keep the guide relevant and hosting it directly on the Jupiter platform for easier access. Adding performance metrics for WGs could also improve accountability. Overall, this guide will empower contributors, drive ecosystem growth, and boost $JUP’s value, benefiting the entire Jupiverse.
