It is crucial that community advisors give feedback which focuses the proposal towards the challenge itself. While an idea might be impactful on its own it must align with the goals of the community.

What happens next? + +### Review the Reviewer Process + +This is a self correcting process which precedes the Ballot Submission phase and provides guidance to the Voting Committee. + +1. CA's finish reviewing. +2. An anonymized CSV containing all reviews will be passed for peer review by veteran CA's who will filter out substandard reviews. +3. Proposers will also be invited to report substandard reviews. +4. Experienced CA's decide which reported reviews should be excluded. +5. A Catalyst admin removes the results of step 4 and any blank reviews from final published reviews. +6. A list of all removed reviews will be published and a retrospective to review the process for the next fund will be held. + +### Ballot Submission + +- The review score and a link to the proposal's URL on the Ideascale innovation platform will be visible from the Catalyst Voting app. +- All rationales provided by CA's will be attached to the original proposal in Ideascale. + +### Anonymity: + +Identity of the CA will be kept anonymous in Ideascale. However, despite our best efforts and testing, there's always a small risk, because of the nature of Ideascale being a 3rd party tool, and anonymity being an experimental feature, that the CA's identity might become known. Please make sure you understand that risk before reviewing proposals. + +### Community Advisor Incentive + +Goal of incentives is to assure reviewers provide a thoughtful and fair review to all proposals, and that each proposal will receive at least three reviews. + Therefore: + +- A total of 5% of the challenge fund amount will be allocated as incentive to community advisors. + - 4% will be allocated as rewards for reviews. + - 1% will be allocated to incentivize those reviewing the reviews. +- After peer-review by CA's, if it can be determined that a review is: + +- given from a biased perspective. +- clear that the proposal was not read through by the community advisor. +- clear that the selection criteria and review guidelines were not applied or understood by the community advisor. +- lacks clear articulation of the rationale for the assessment in a constructive way. + +Then the community advisor will not be eligible for incentives and will receive a warning. + +- Out of the eligible reviews, for each proposal on the ballot, three reviews will be randomly selected from all reviewers of the proposal to receive an incentive. That means if a proposal received 5 reviews, 3 reviewers out of the 5 will receive an incentive. +- Incentives will be distributed evenly between all reviews that are randomly selected. +- In order to receive the incentive the community advisor will be asked to add a valid shelley payment address in Ideascale. +- Rewards will be sent along with proposer rewards at the start of the execution phase for the Fund. + +### Community Advisor Guiding Principles + +- Misunderstandings are more likely than malign behaviour (see [Hanlon's Razor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon%27s_razor)). Whilst it is easy to assume that proposals, messages or activities you don't understand or disagree with come from negative intentions... it is more likely that you (or they) are misunderstanding something about each other; the proposal; or the challenge/context. Find clarity and common ground before wasting your energy. + +- Separate the idea from the proposal. A proposal is just a document and an expression of an idea. A great idea can still have a poor proposal that is either not expressing the idea appropriately, or needs more assistance/collaboration/resources to reach its full potential. Proposers might want feedback on both, but be clear about what you are discussing. + +- Advisors are here to advise, not collaborate (mostly). We are walking a fine line on this one, but keep in mind that the advice provided may be coming from experts that are trying to help proposers write better documentation, assess risks or build teams. That isn't the same as having passion for the idea, so proposers should not get down-hearted when receiving comments in Ideascale that just "seem negative" and the commenter isn't joining in the team. + +- Advisors are here to advise, not be gatekeepers. Advisors should always remember that when writing advice... and proposers should always remember that when reading it. + +The Project Catalyst team thanks all our community advisors for helping build the future of Cardano! diff --git a/src/fr/docs/README.md b/src/fr/docs/README.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c32eebd4 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/fr/docs/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,217 @@ +# FAQ +Project Catalyst FAQ [original source](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qYtV15WXeM_AQYvISzr0a0Qj2IzW3hDvhMBvZZ4w2jE/) + +[[toc]] +## What is Project Catalyst? +Project Catalyst is a series of experiments which seeks to generate the highest levels of community innovation. Catalyst is bringing on-chain governance to the Cardano blockchain by allowing the community to self-determine priorities for growth. It also lets participants deploy funding to proposals which tackle challenges and capitalize on opportunities that arise in the life cycle of Cardano. + +To do this, Project Catalyst is divided into a series of funds which are deployed every six weeks. These funds will illicit ideas in the form of proposals from participants. Each proposal will focus around a challenge issued by the Project Catalyst team or the Project Catalyst community. The proposals will then go through a community refinement process where they are vetted for feasibility, auditability, and impact by a group of incentivized community advisors. Once the proposals have been finalized they will be voted on by the community and funds will be distributed in the form of ada to winning projects. Each stage of this process is described in greater detail throughout this document. + + +##How can I participate? +Anyone can participate in Project Catalyst. Ada-holders, and those new to Cardano are more than welcome. We are also looking for both technical and non-technical expertise. This is all about casting a wide net to find great ideas and make them better. So, you can take part in Project Catalyst in the following ways: +* Propose new ideas +* Suggest feedback on other ideas +* Help refine the idea into a proposal (fill out a structured questionnaire to help improve proposals) +* Offer help in implementing proposals through a professional service +* Help in problem definition, evaluation or breakdown +* Share insights about competitive analysis of other blockchain solutions +* Share relevant knowledge in regards to problem-solving +* Review finalized proposals to help ada holders make the best decision +* Provide us feedback on how to improve the process facilitating its efficiency + +##What will the process look like? +The program consists of five key phases; innovation, governance and execution + +###Innovation phase +**Challenge refinement**— Share your perspective on the challenge: facts, anecdotes, examples, opinions, wild ideas.

The purpose of collective innovation is to maximize the benefits of our community resources. We believe that working together to derisk and build a decentralized global platform is the key to rapidly addressing arising challenges, opportunities and complexities. Furthermore, by tasking the community with the development and implementation of beneficial ideas through a series of funding cycles, we can achieve significantly more than working on initiatives in a centralized fashion. + +####What do you mean when you call Project Catalyst an experiment? +Experiments are about trying things out, testing ideas, iterating, improving – and that is exactly what Project Catalyst is all about. Voting, treasuries, and generating global consensus are tricky business and we assume that our initial efforts won’t be perfect. That is why we have chosen to develop on-chain governance through a series of experiments meant to expose flaws, reveal dependencies, and test the system as a whole. With each iteration we will take lessons learned and apply them to the next funding round. The end goal of these experiments is a robust voting, innovation, and treasury system which works for everyone. + +####If crowdsourcing is better why aren’t all decisions made this way? +One day, they will. Many centralized organizations do not place a high premium on development through community interaction. Furthermore, their limited scope means that a relatively small amount of challenges need to be solved at any given point. Cardano is building a decentralized global financial and social operating system so increasingly, we’ll be looking to our highly motivated community to set direction, create value and address issues. + +####Is the innovation platform set in stone, or will it change over time? +It will continue to evolve and adapt over time. Given that Project Catalyst is a series of experiments meant to build a global on-chain governance system it will naturally change to become stronger as new ideas emerge. One of the reasons that we are including the community in this work is to ensure that their voice is heard in the final outcome. So yes, the innovation platform will change with each iteration. + +####Is the voting strictly based on the work done in this paper, "A Treasury System for Cryptocurrencies: Enabling Better Collaborative Intelligence", or have there been changes? +This paper was an important jumping off point for defining how governance works for the treasury. Since then, the Catalyst governance protocol team has worked to generate updated protocol taking into regards community feedback and technical constraints. + +#####What are kudos? +Think of kudos like a reputation score - a measure of how your contribution is valued by the community. Kudos is a method for signaling beneficial behavior in the community which we would like to see more of. This could include a great idea, or a helpful comment. +In crowdsourcing projects, once ideas have been generated, they can be turned into a hierarchy. This often pushes ideas which need more incubation out of the public conversation. We are trying to reduce this effect. That is why we are not liking, ranking, or voting up. This allows individuals to take in a large amount of perspectives. This is why we are using Kudos. These are a signal that indicates value given to the community. This could be a great idea or an insightful comment, ultimately it is a way of showing the community what we want to see more of. This helps build the reputation of people who are being helpful. It also helps show support for a proposal, since hovering above the kudos will show the usernames of all supporters. + +####How much in funding does the treasury currently hold? +You can track all the stats [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xny1W7HhHANLNeQcnbr8El5rakJ80VIM7fgDwJ-uqys/edit#gid=0). + +##THE PHASES + +####Why is there an initial challenge refinement phase? +After examining research on collective innovation, the Project Catalyst team has determined that the addition of an ideation phase generates a demonstrably better result. In essence, the ideation phase is a great opportunity to share perspectives on the challenge and set the stage for better ideas in the next stage. + +####What is the purpose of the innovation phase? +The purpose of the innovation phase is to generate high quality proposals which respond directly to the challenge set out by the fund. At this point, ideas will be pitched on the innovation platform. The community will then offer refinements in the form of feedback. + +####What is the purpose of the governance phase? +The governance phase will ensure that the best mix of proposals will receive funding.. Governance makes sure that everyone is coloring inside of the lines set out by the fund challenge itself. + +####What is the purpose of the execution phase? +During the execution phase funding, will be given to teams or individuals working on the project. Implementers will go to work building the idea outlined in the proposal. Regular reports will be required to inform the community about progress and difficulties encountered during the development process. If these reports are not made then funding can be removed from projects which are not bearing fruit. + +##FUNDING +####How do you get funded to become a professional thought leader who helps with ideation? +We have three incentives possible to receive during participation in Project Catalyst These include the voter reward, community advisor reward, and the proposal reward. We believe that the success of these projects means the success of ada in the long term. This means that everyone has skin in the game in some respect. + +####Why is there an 8000 ada threshold to register for Fund2? +Project Catalyst maintains an 8000 ada threshold to vote in order to prevent security breaches. It is important that we ensure honest actors are participating in the governance platform and one way that we do this to make certain that voters have a stake in the system. It makes attacks against the platform costly for malicious actors. + + +####Is there a cap to how much voting power people have? Isn’t pairing voting power to wealth an oligarchy? +This system is still in its early stages and we will continue to iterate as the platform develops. The community will continually assess this process for fairness, useability and impact. We encourage everyone to provide constructive feedback. + +####Why is ada given to participants? +A significant proportion of the Cardano community recognizes the impact they can make when working together. We believe in incentivizing participation further through direct payments. Getting involved is satisfying in its own right. To get the best ideas, implementers, and voters we need to make interacting with Project Catalyst valuable. We do that through ada. + +####What happens to the funds over time? +If experiments go well, the amount of funds under control of the Catalyst process will increase. + +####Can there be multiple projects for one particular fund? +Yes. We hope that there will be. There is no hard and fast rule against the fund being split up across multiple projects. Furthermore, the system allows for multiple challenges to be addressed within each fund. + +####Will voter rewards be tied to how much ada is held by the voter? +Yes + +####Is a minimum ada needed to participate in voting? +Yes, while anyone can participate in + +####How are rewards calculated? +In Fund2, there will be three types of rewards: (1) [Voter rewards](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VX69i5_H--5K5s1XifKl1-Z5ngabVccS73_2isQ6qkk/edit]) (2) Proposer rewards (3) Community advisor rewards. + +####What happens to proposal funding if ada price shifts? +For Fund2, we devised a methodology for insuring price stability: +(1) We measure ada/USD price showing on https://coinmarketcap.com/ on Oct 21 15:00 UTC (2020-10-21T15:00+00:00) = 0.107$ per ada. +(2) At the date of rewards allocation. We will adjust the amount of ada given to the winning proposal to be equivalent of the same amount of USD calculated in (1). + +Example: A proposal asks for 100 ada on Oct 21, and let’s assume ada price on that time is 0.1 USD. On the day of rewarding, the price shifted so ada is now worth 0.15 USD. That means the proposer will be rewarded with 66.666 ada. The same amount in USD they asked for originally. + +##GOVERNANCE AND LEGAL +####Who maintains the intellectual property rights for a funded proposal? +Each proposer will define their own copyright and intellectual property. + +####Who makes the challenges? +During the initial rounds of Project Catalyst the IOHK team will generate the challenges. However, this process will eventually become community led. There is also the possibility that several challenges could be presented simultaneously in later rounds. + +####How will voting take place? +Voting will take place on cell phones through a mobile application. For Fund 3, registration will occur by locking up a set amount of ada until the end of the voting period, however, this has not been onboarded for Fund3. + +####Is there going to be a challenge for each voting period? Who picks this? +Yes, in fact there might be several challenges for each voting period. We must have an intention for each voting period. Challenges are developed by conversations with the community. We believe that by the end of Fund 3 the community will be able to choose their own challenge. Another interesting thing to consider is the fact that we can set multiple intentions in order to accomplish more. + +####What if the implementer runs out of budget and cannot deliver? +They will have to make another proposal and rely on the understanding and flexibility of the community. There is an understanding of how startups and tech companies work among our community. Communication is key here and we believe that regular reports will help voters determine if more funding is needed. + +####Are there any legal protections for IP? +Decentralized innovation is complicated, as is IP. The legal position of IOHK is that there is no legal entity behind the treasury. That means that the treasury cannot enforce and/or own IP. We can support the free flow of information. In the innovation platform there will be a section which allows individuals to discuss their own IP. Some projects will be open source and some will preserve their own IP. In the end it is up to the community to decide for themselves. We will provide some guidelines for how IP is to be dealt with in the future to assist + +####How can we be sure people don’t ‘run away with the money’? +We can keep people informed with Project Catalyst. We ask individuals to file progress reports every week to provide accountability. Furthermore proposals are vetted by the community to ensure that these ideas are based in reality. On top of that, money will be given in small portions after review by key stakeholders. Any suspicion of foul play will lead to a freeze in funding. This process will become more refined over time. Our best asset is the community here if something does not seem trustworthy we believe that the community will not vote for it. + +####What KPIs will be used to track the impact of the challenge? +* How many developers did we attract? +* How many entrepreneurs are working on Cardano proposals? +* How many Dapps were generated? +* How many businesses were founded? + +####These will be tracked via: +* Reporting by funded proposals every two weeks +* On-chain annotations +* New user survey +* Growth metrics + +Additional KPIs will be set by individuals and teams implementing the ideas. + +##IDEASCALE + +####What is IdeaScale? +IdeaScale is the company we have commissioned to provide a collaborative workspace – our innovation platform – that allows discussion and innovation between IOHK and Project Catalyst participants. + +####Why was IdeaScale chosen? +The API and feature set ws flexible enough to express all necessary ideas. We would like to eventually integrate Atala Prism as the decentralized identity standard, but for now we will work on integrating two factor authentication to ensure safety. + +**I have an issue with Ideascale, what do I do?** + + +##INNOVATION AND VOTING + +####How can proposers engage IOG and EMURGO into discourse about promising ideas? +Currently, there is no direct process to do this. We’re looking to the expertise of the community in order to refine ideas as much as possible at this stage. The focus for now should be on getting ideas funded through the program. We certainly anticipate greater direct involvement in the future + +####Will Daedalus be linked to the voting app? +Yes, for Fund3 the registration process will be integrated in Daedalus flight. For Fund3, we are planning to offer a registration process through a variant of Daedalus wallet. + +####How will feedback to proposers be given? +Feedback is given through IdeaScale. There, anyone can provide helpful thoughts to strengthen proposals and their ability to be implemented effectively. + +####Is the challenge intended to be macro focused on how to implement things that encourage developers to build on Cardano, OR micro focused on actually funding the creation of specific Dapp proposals? OR both? +Both. We need big bold development ideas and smaller business initiatives to grow Cardano into a global financial and social operating system. Project Catalyst exists to fund all kinds of ideas. + +####Will there be voting from Yoroi? +Yes, we are in discussions with Emurgo to onboard a voting process in the future. + +##ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES + +####What is an innovator? +An innovator is anyone who brings ideas for advancement to the innovation platform. An innovator can be technical or non-technical. The innovator’s most important job is strengthening Cardano through identifying potential opportunities for development. + +####Who is the proposer? +Think of the proposer as the “CEO” of the proposal, accountable for guiding it’s execution from start to finish. + +####What is a community advisor? +A community advisor is familiar with the innovation platform, the challenge, and best practices for developing a proposal. They act to assist innovators in ensuring that their ideas are auditable, achievable, and impactful. + +####What is the role of implementers? +Implementers make the proposals happen. These can be individuals, teams of developers or even partnerships with organizations. + +####Who is the voter? +Voters will eventually decide if a proposal is funded or if more improvements are necessary. + +####Can teams work on proposals? +Yes! We encourage everyone to explore working in teams and groups. + +####Are there appointed professionals who can refine ideas? +We do not have a structured expert class as of this moment. We encourage anyone looking for guidance to reach out to participants in previous funds. The Project Catalyst community always the best source of information, innovation, and inspiration for new participants. + +####How will the implementers be decided? +The proposer will pick the implementation team. + +####Can participants be non-technical? +Absolutely, building Cardano requires the input of both technical and non-technical individuals. We’re building a platform that works for everyone so we want everyone involved. diff --git a/src/fr/faq/README.md b/src/fr/faq/README.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..77f6e6c7 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/fr/faq/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,218 @@ +# Project Catalyst FAQ +Project Catalyst FAQ [original source](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qYtV15WXeM_AQYvISzr0a0Qj2IzW3hDvhMBvZZ4w2jE/) + +[[toc]] + +## What is Project Catalyst? +Project Catalyst is a series of experiments which seeks to generate the highest levels of community innovation.

Once the proposals have been finalized they will be voted on by the community and funds will be distributed in the form of ada to winning projects. Each stage of this process is described in greater detail throughout this document. + + +## How can I participate? +Anyone can participate in Project Catalyst. Ada-holders, and those new to Cardano are more than welcome. We are also looking for both technical and non-technical expertise. This is all about casting a wide net to find great ideas and make them better. So, you can take part in Project Catalyst in the following ways: +* Propose new ideas +* Suggest feedback on other ideas +* Help refine the idea into a proposal (fill out a structured questionnaire to help improve proposals) +* Offer help in implementing proposals through a professional service +* Help in problem definition, evaluation or breakdown +* Share insights about competitive analysis of other blockchain solutions +* Share relevant knowledge in regards to problem-solving +* Review finalized proposals to help ada holders make the best decision +* Provide us feedback on how to improve the process facilitating its efficiency + +## What will the process look like? +The program consists of five key phases; innovation, governance and execution + +### Innovation phase +**Challenge refinement**— Share your perspective on the challenge: facts, anecdotes, examples, opinions, wild ideas. [Instructions in detail](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bSZaeICuyVnpvbgJDB4elENUF9Pv7MGrPTdmjOMPSEo/edit]) +**Ideate** — Submit initial proposal ideas. Give feedback, follow promising ideas, join forces. +**Refine** — Provide proposers feedback on how they can increase the Impact, Auditability and Feasibility of their idea. +**Finalize** — Turn refined ideas into proposals ready for the vote. +**Assess** — Community advisors review while the community reflects on how to improve proposals and process for their next iteration. +**Voter discussion** — View proposals in the voting app. Discussion is now about which proposals should be funded, and Q&A with proposers, rather than how to improve them further. + +### Fund3 innovation phase timeline +* Challenge refinement phase: Jan 6th -Jan 13 +* Proposal draft submission: Jan 13 - Jan 20 +* Proposal Refinement : Jan 20 - Jan 27 +* Proposal Final submission: Jan 27 - Feb 3 +* Proposal Review: Feb 3 - Feb 10 +* Reviewing the reviewers: Feb 10 - Feb 16th +* Fund3 governance phase + Fund4 innovation phase launch: Feb 16th. + +### Governance phase +**Registration** - Voting committee published top proposals.

The purpose of collective innovation is to maximize the benefits of our community resources. We believe that working together to derisk and build a decentralized global platform is the key to rapidly addressing arising challenges, opportunities and complexities. Furthermore, by tasking the community with the development and implementation of beneficial ideas through a series of funding cycles, we can achieve significantly more than working on initiatives in a centralized fashion. + +#### What do you mean when you call Project Catalyst an experiment? +Experiments are about trying things out, testing ideas, iterating, improving – and that is exactly what Project Catalyst is all about. Voting, treasuries, and generating global consensus are tricky business and we assume that our initial efforts won’t be perfect. That is why we have chosen to develop on-chain governance through a series of experiments meant to expose flaws, reveal dependencies, and test the system as a whole. With each iteration we will take lessons learned and apply them to the next funding round. The end goal of these experiments is a robust voting, innovation, and treasury system which works for everyone. + +#### If crowdsourcing is better why aren’t all decisions made this way? +One day, they will. Many centralized organizations do not place a high premium on development through community interaction. Furthermore, their limited scope means that a relatively small amount of challenges need to be solved at any given point. Cardano is building a decentralized global financial and social operating system so increasingly, we’ll be looking to our highly motivated community to set direction, create value and address issues. + +#### Is the innovation platform set in stone, or will it change over time? +It will continue to evolve and adapt over time. Given that Project Catalyst is a series of experiments meant to build a global on-chain governance system it will naturally change to become stronger as new ideas emerge. One of the reasons that we are including the community in this work is to ensure that their voice is heard in the final outcome. So yes, the innovation platform will change with each iteration. + +#### Is the voting strictly based on the work done in this paper, "A Treasury System for Cryptocurrencies: Enabling Better Collaborative Intelligence", or have there been changes? +This paper was an important jumping off point for defining how governance works for the treasury. Since then, the Catalyst governance protocol team has worked to generate updated protocol taking into regards community feedback and technical constraints. + +##### What are kudos? +Think of kudos like a reputation score - a measure of how your contribution is valued by the community. Kudos is a method for signaling beneficial behavior in the community which we would like to see more of. This could include a great idea, or a helpful comment. +In crowdsourcing projects, once ideas have been generated, they can be turned into a hierarchy. This often pushes ideas which need more incubation out of the public conversation. We are trying to reduce this effect. That is why we are not liking, ranking, or voting up. This allows individuals to take in a large amount of perspectives. This is why we are using Kudos. These are a signal that indicates value given to the community. This could be a great idea or an insightful comment, ultimately it is a way of showing the community what we want to see more of. This helps build the reputation of people who are being helpful. It also helps show support for a proposal, since hovering above the kudos will show the usernames of all supporters. + +#### How much in funding does the treasury currently hold? +You can track all the stats [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xny1W7HhHANLNeQcnbr8El5rakJ80VIM7fgDwJ-uqys/edit#gid=0). + +## THE PHASES + +#### Why is there an initial challenge refinement phase? +After examining research on collective innovation, the Project Catalyst team has determined that the addition of an ideation phase generates a demonstrably better result. In essence, the ideation phase is a great opportunity to share perspectives on the challenge and set the stage for better ideas in the next stage. + +#### What is the purpose of the innovation phase? +The purpose of the innovation phase is to generate high quality proposals which respond directly to the challenge set out by the fund. At this point, ideas will be pitched on the innovation platform. The community will then offer refinements in the form of feedback. + +#### What is the purpose of the governance phase? +The governance phase will ensure that the best mix of proposals will receive funding.. Governance makes sure that everyone is coloring inside of the lines set out by the fund challenge itself. + +#### What is the purpose of the execution phase? +During the execution phase funding, will be given to teams or individuals working on the project. Implementers will go to work building the idea outlined in the proposal. Regular reports will be required to inform the community about progress and difficulties encountered during the development process. If these reports are not made then funding can be removed from projects which are not bearing fruit. + +## FUNDING +#### How do you get funded to become a professional thought leader who helps with ideation? +We have three incentives possible to receive during participation in Project Catalyst These include the voter reward, community advisor reward, and the proposal reward. We believe that the success of these projects means the success of ada in the long term. This means that everyone has skin in the game in some respect. + +#### Why is there an 8000 ada threshold to register for Fund2? +Project Catalyst maintains an 8000 ada threshold to vote in order to prevent security breaches. It is important that we ensure honest actors are participating in the governance platform and one way that we do this to make certain that voters have a stake in the system. It makes attacks against the platform costly for malicious actors. + + +#### Is there a cap to how much voting power people have? Isn’t pairing voting power to wealth an oligarchy? +This system is still in its early stages and we will continue to iterate as the platform develops. The community will continually assess this process for fairness, useability and impact. We encourage everyone to provide constructive feedback. + +#### Why is ada given to participants? +A significant proportion of the Cardano community recognizes the impact they can make when working together. We believe in incentivizing participation further through direct payments. Getting involved is satisfying in its own right. To get the best ideas, implementers, and voters we need to make interacting with Project Catalyst valuable. We do that through ada. + +#### What happens to the funds over time? +If experiments go well, the amount of funds under control of the Catalyst process will increase. + +#### Can there be multiple projects for one particular fund? +Yes. We hope that there will be. There is no hard and fast rule against the fund being split up across multiple projects. Furthermore, the system allows for multiple challenges to be addressed within each fund. + +#### Will voter rewards be tied to how much ada is held by the voter? +Yes + +#### Is a minimum ada needed to participate in voting? +Yes, while anyone can participate in + +#### How are rewards calculated? +In Fund2, there will be three types of rewards: (1) [Voter rewards](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VX69i5_H--5K5s1XifKl1-Z5ngabVccS73_2isQ6qkk/edit]) (2) Proposer rewards (3) Community advisor rewards. + +#### What happens to proposal funding if ada price shifts? +For Fund2, we devised a methodology for insuring price stability: +(1) We measure ada/USD price showing on https://coinmarketcap.com/ on Oct 21 15:00 UTC (2020-10-21T15:00+00:00) = 0.107$ per ada. +(2) At the date of rewards allocation. We will adjust the amount of ada given to the winning proposal to be equivalent of the same amount of USD calculated in (1). + +Example: A proposal asks for 100 ada on Oct 21, and let’s assume ada price on that time is 0.1 USD. On the day of rewarding, the price shifted so ada is now worth 0.15 USD. That means the proposer will be rewarded with 66.666 ada. The same amount in USD they asked for originally. + +## GOVERNANCE AND LEGAL +#### Who maintains the intellectual property rights for a funded proposal? +Each proposer will define their own copyright and intellectual property. + +#### Who makes the challenges? +During the initial rounds of Project Catalyst the IOHK team will generate the challenges. However, this process will eventually become community led. There is also the possibility that several challenges could be presented simultaneously in later rounds. + +#### How will voting take place? +Voting will take place on cell phones through a mobile application. For Fund 3, registration will occur by locking up a set amount of ada until the end of the voting period, however, this has not been onboarded for Fund3. + +#### Is there going to be a challenge for each voting period? Who picks this? +Yes, in fact there might be several challenges for each voting period. We must have an intention for each voting period. Challenges are developed by conversations with the community. We believe that by the end of Fund 3 the community will be able to choose their own challenge. Another interesting thing to consider is the fact that we can set multiple intentions in order to accomplish more. + +#### What if the implementer runs out of budget and cannot deliver? +They will have to make another proposal and rely on the understanding and flexibility of the community. There is an understanding of how startups and tech companies work among our community. Communication is key here and we believe that regular reports will help voters determine if more funding is needed. + +#### Are there any legal protections for IP? +Decentralized innovation is complicated, as is IP. The legal position of IOHK is that there is no legal entity behind the treasury. That means that the treasury cannot enforce and/or own IP. We can support the free flow of information. In the innovation platform there will be a section which allows individuals to discuss their own IP. Some projects will be open source and some will preserve their own IP. In the end it is up to the community to decide for themselves. We will provide some guidelines for how IP is to be dealt with in the future to assist + +#### How can we be sure people don’t ‘run away with the money’? +We can keep people informed with Project Catalyst. We ask individuals to file progress reports every week to provide accountability. Furthermore proposals are vetted by the community to ensure that these ideas are based in reality. On top of that, money will be given in small portions after review by key stakeholders. Any suspicion of foul play will lead to a freeze in funding. This process will become more refined over time. Our best asset is the community here if something does not seem trustworthy we believe that the community will not vote for it. + +#### What KPIs will be used to track the impact of the challenge? +* How many developers did we attract? +* How many entrepreneurs are working on Cardano proposals? +* How many Dapps were generated? +* How many businesses were founded? + +#### These will be tracked via: +* Reporting by funded proposals every two weeks +* On-chain annotations +* New user survey +* Growth metrics + +Additional KPIs will be set by individuals and teams implementing the ideas. + +## IDEASCALE + +#### What is IdeaScale? +IdeaScale is the company we have commissioned to provide a collaborative workspace – our innovation platform – that allows discussion and innovation between IOHK and Project Catalyst participants. + +#### Why was IdeaScale chosen? +The API and feature set ws flexible enough to express all necessary ideas. We would like to eventually integrate Atala Prism as the decentralized identity standard, but for now we will work on integrating two factor authentication to ensure safety. + +**I have an issue with Ideascale, what do I do?** + + +## INNOVATION AND VOTING + +#### How can proposers engage IOG and EMURGO into discourse about promising ideas? +Currently, there is no direct process to do this. We’re looking to the expertise of the community in order to refine ideas as much as possible at this stage. The focus for now should be on getting ideas funded through the program. We certainly anticipate greater direct involvement in the future + +#### Will Daedalus be linked to the voting app? +Yes, for Fund3 the registration process will be integrated in Daedalus flight. For Fund3, we are planning to offer a registration process through a variant of Daedalus wallet. + +#### How will feedback to proposers be given? +Feedback is given through IdeaScale. There, anyone can provide helpful thoughts to strengthen proposals and their ability to be implemented effectively. + +#### Is the challenge intended to be macro focused on how to implement things that encourage developers to build on Cardano, OR micro focused on actually funding the creation of specific Dapp proposals? OR both? +Both. We need big bold development ideas and smaller business initiatives to grow Cardano into a global financial and social operating system. Project Catalyst exists to fund all kinds of ideas. + +#### Will there be voting from Yoroi? +Yes, we are in discussions with Emurgo to onboard a voting process in the future. + +## ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES + +#### What is an innovator? +An innovator is anyone who brings ideas for advancement to the innovation platform. An innovator can be technical or non-technical. The innovator’s most important job is strengthening Cardano through identifying potential opportunities for development. + +#### Who is the proposer? +Think of the proposer as the “CEO” of the proposal, accountable for guiding it’s execution from start to finish. + +#### What is a community advisor? +A community advisor is familiar with the innovation platform, the challenge, and best practices for developing a proposal. They act to assist innovators in ensuring that their ideas are auditable, achievable, and impactful. + +#### What is the role of implementers? +Implementers make the proposals happen. These can be individuals, teams of developers or even partnerships with organizations. + +#### Who is the voter? +Voters will eventually decide if a proposal is funded or if more improvements are necessary. + +#### Can teams work on proposals? +Yes! We encourage everyone to explore working in teams and groups. + +#### Are there appointed professionals who can refine ideas? +We do not have a structured expert class as of this moment. We encourage anyone looking for guidance to reach out to participants in previous funds. The Project Catalyst community always the best source of information, innovation, and inspiration for new participants. + +#### How will the implementers be decided? +The proposer will pick the implementation team. + +#### Can participants be non-technical? +Absolutely, building Cardano requires the input of both technical and non-technical individuals. We’re building a platform that works for everyone so we want everyone involved. diff --git a/src/fr/funds/README.md b/src/fr/funds/README.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9d090c9f --- /dev/null +++ b/src/fr/funds/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,138 @@ +# Funds +

This is a collaborative process to create a worldwide community innovation project. The problem statement, solution, relevant experience, and funds requested will be displayed in the voting application. This will allow everyone to learn about the initiatives before voting on them. + +The proposal plans and attachments can be viewed on our innovation platform, hosted by Ideascale, in order to gain an understanding of the details. This all means that we want everyone to feel confident in contributing to the discussion as a whole. + +The quality of the output is dependent on the community's ability to create and engage with new ideas. To that end, we would like to share a quick guide to writing successful proposals: + +## Proposing a title +(35 char. limit) + +The proposal name should give an indication of the innovation that you are trying to achieve while also grabbing people's attention. But we want to avoid any slick marketing speak. Just tell your audience what it does and who it is for as clearly as possible. Keep it simple and informative and keep your audience in mind. + +**Example Title:** Stake pool operator vlog network + +## HOW TO WRITE A PROBLEM STATEMENT +(140 char. limit) + +**Rising to the challenge** + +Each fund will have a specific challenge which proposals will attempt to solve. Challenges will originally be set by the Project Catalyst team and then opportunities will arise for the community to develop their own. It is crucial that proposals address the challenge directly. Here is an example of a challenge and some problem statements which address it. + +**Challenge** + +_How can we encourage developers and entrepreneurs to build Dapps and businesses on top of Cardano in the next 6 months?_ + +**Problem statements** + +_Builders don't want to deal with the red tape\time cost of securing funding. How do we help Cardano builders streamline proposals?_ + +_I am trying to solve the problem of bootstrapping decentralized\open finance movement on Cardano before Plutus and Marlowe hit mainnet._ + +In both of these examples the relationship between the problem statements and the challenge is apparent. This is what voters will be looking for. However, while the content of the problem statements is clear and effective, these problem statements can be improved. + +## Making great problem statements +(140 char. limit) + +The problem statement identifies the issue related to the challenge, and offers a solution. It is important to focus on _common problems, urgent problems, expensive problems,_ and _frequent problems._ Explaining your problem in these terms is crucial to a good proposal so it should be the first thing seen by voters. A good problem statement has four components: _the desired outcome, blocking problem, costs of the problem,_ and _the evidence._ + +**Structure of the problem statement** + +**Desired outcome:** This paints a picture of the ideal set of circumstances once your solution is accepted. + +**Blocking problem:** A concise explanation of the problem preventing this set of circumstances from occurring. + +**Costs of the problem:** A summation of both the opportunity and financial costs of the problem to key stakeholders. This helps voters assess how much impact the problem has. + +**Evidence:** Support for your position laid out in a detailed plan. + +Here's an example: + +| **Desired Outcome** | We want to make it affordable to transfer money to workers living in the Philippines. | +| --- | --- | +| **Blocking problem** | 11% of the population of the Philippines lose money on transaction fees. | +| **Costs of the problem** | Around $1 billion is paid in transfer fees annually. | +| **Evidence** | Link (s) to data which proves this. | + +Here's the complete problem statement which condenses the information above: + +"Money transfer to Philippines workers should be affordable. However, 11% of the population are losing 1B$ in transaction fees per year. Research links [[1](http://www.pricingphillipines.io/)],[[2](http://www.exampleresearchproject.co.il/)]" + +**In conclusion** + +- State your desired outcome and the problem blocking it +- Define the cost of the problem +- Give evidence for your findings + +## SOLUTION +(140 char. limit) + +**Structuring the Solution** + +So, you only have 140 characters to give a lot of important information. When every character counts, it is important that you address the prompt exactly. + +It may sound obvious, but your solution must be based on a known problem. It has to actually solve the problem laid out in the problem statement. A solution in search of a problem is rarely an attractive option because it is less efficient than filling a distinct need. So remember: start with solving a problem and then lay out the vision of your solution in the 'Plan in Detail' section. Your 140 characters should address the problem, solve it, and give some insight into how your solution is different from others. + +**Example solution statement:** Create a stakepool operator-run digital magazine maintained on the blockchain to expose Cardano to new audiences outside of current users. + +**In conclusion** + +- Address the problem directly to ensure that your solution rises to the challenge +- Make your project stand out through differentiation +- Create a solution that solves a problem instead of one looking for a problem. + +## RELEVANT EXPERIENCE +(140 char. limit) + +**Find your edge** + +Find your 'competitive edge' and ensure you drive it home. We can break down your competitive edge into a couple of different categories. Your solution should include an explanation of as many of these competitive edges as possible. Remember, the people voting on these proposals want to see yours as a 'sure thing'. If you can clearly explain _why_ you are different from any of the other projects in the blockchain space, then you have a significant competitive advantage. + +**Founders:** The people who are working on your proposal can lend their personal expertise and work history to the project. + +**Example:** John Doe completed his PhD with a focus on incentive schemes for blockchain treasury systems. + +**In conclusion** + +- Find your competitive edge and make sure that it is well known +- This might look different for different kinds of projects +- Remember that your audience is other people on the innovation platform + +## PLAN IN DETAIL + +**Differentiate through insight** + +Now that we have outlined the problem and given a solid solution, let's talk about execution. + +Different problems require different solutions. We are looking for a wide variety of project ideas from marketing campaigns and educational resources to developer infrastructure improvements and business development.. + +You should look at your plan as a roadmap and a need analysis. First of all, Why does your solution work? While you may have been the first to identify your problem it is important that you explain why your solution will be the most successful in a field of possible options. + +**Market:** The market you have identified has not been previously accessed or prioritized. Markets should be identified that have 20 percent growth a year. + +**Example:** Our hardware solution works with all proof-of-work blockchains. + +**Product:** Your solution works in the market in a particularly impactful way. + +**Example:** This hardware addition reduces energy consumption of mining rigs by 20 percent. + +**Acquisition:** Your route to user and platform acquisition is clear and well thought out. + +**Example:** Access to network information drives user acquisition for no cost + +**Monopoly:** As you grow in the field your company actually gets stronger. + +**Example:** Using the Ouroboros protocol allows our system to become more secure as decentralization increases. + +**Show us the money** + +Complex problems often need sufficient funding to be solved. This is understood by the community at Project Catalyst. However, anyone voting on these proposals should be able to know how the funding is being spent. Giving a detailed breakdown of how the budget will be spent. This can come in a variety of ways but distilling your budget into a series of line items is a clear way to show voters that you have considered how major funding initiatives will be spent. + +It is also important to remember that your budget should meet the requirements of the project you're setting out to accomplish. If you are trying to gain funding for a small meetup then a couple hundred dollars should be sufficient. If you are coordinating the development of critical infrastructure then you will need more resources. Make sure to pair the vision with the appropriate funding. + +**Example:** Creating a developer focused podcast will take $5k in the initial 6 months. + +**Getting on the road** + +When building your proposal, you should write as if you will be receiving funding. But it's important that anyone reading your proposal understands that you will be able to hit the ground running. This is where your roadmap comes in. Your roadmap should break down all of the key milestones you intend to hit once funding is received. This can be done in a couple of different ways, but a good roadmap details your **one month, three month, and six month goals.** + +In the roadmap it is also important to identify your key performance indicators (KPIs). These are the goals that you hit which demonstrate that you have been successful. Here are some examples of KPIs: + +- Users acquired +- Product capability built +- Performance benchmark reached +- Network stability achieved for x amount of time + +The important thing to remember about KPIs is that they should have a number attached to them. Acquiring an initial 15 users is an achievable goal. Acquiring 'a lot' of users is pretty vague and difficult for anyone to adjudicate. Remember, you are presenting these ideas to the community, the clearer you make your intentions and the easier it is to verify that you have achieved your goals, the more likely it is that you will be seen as a great bet. + +**IP** + +Please share with reviewers what is your IP policy (Patents, trademarks, copyright, licensing etc') so they can assess if that is a good fit for the treasury. + +**Defining success** + +What does success look like for this particular project? While it might not be entirely complete after one round of funding, your proposal should give us an idea of what an end state looks like. This, like your KPIs should be an easily understood number that can be verified by anyone. + +**In conclusion** + +- Suit the budget and the roadmap to the needs of your project. +- Establish reachable key performance indicators that show good progress towards your goal. +- Establish intellectual property rights so that everyone knows who owns what. +- Define success for your project. + +## Attachments/links + +It is important for everyone to be able to share additional necessary information. That is why PDFs, images and additional URLs can be sent through the Ideascale where they can be viewed by everyone. + +**FEEDBACK** + +**Community support** + +In order to make each individual proposal as strong as possible we encourage everyone to use the innovation platform to discuss each idea. In fact, we've created [reviewer guidelines](https://www.google.com/url?q=https://docs.google.com/document/d/13GDOj2vuxZzQttagfgnS3hbnP65xsSsWbf_6TURLI_U/edit%23heading%3Dh.bnxyy561vexh&sa=D&ust=1598993137279000&usg=AFQjCNFiQg_8--NfvsqnBbKhJz-AG-jgLw) to help you direct your critique. For a productive and informative conversation we encourage everyone to focus their feedback on the following areas: + +**Auditability:** What details are missing from the proposal to help reviewers accurately assess the project? + +**Impact:** How can the proposal better address the challenge? How can we encourage people to build dApps on Cardano in the next 6 months? + +**Feasibility:** What are ways that the proposal's budget, plan, and scope can be modified in order to make it more achievable. + +**Example:** If your marketing initiative gave the exact number of users it was attempting to onboard as a KPI then it would be much easier to track its success. + +**In conclusion** + +- Make other proposals stronger by giving good feedback +- Incorporate useful feedback into your own proposal +- Participate actively in the innovation process to make sure it continues to grow + +## HOW TO WRITE A Community choice proposal + +**Emancipating the community** + +The purpose of having the Project Catalyst community write their own challenge is to emancipate the platform from the Project Catalyst team. Eventually, the Cardano community will control the innovation and collaboration process from inception to delivery. With that in mind, it is crucial that we understand what an impactful challenge looks like. + +**Focus on advancement** + +The challenge is a question which helps the community focus its creativity on advancing the Cardano ecosystem. Of course, 'advancement' means different things to different people. The key to writing an impactful challenge question is balance. It must be broad enough to be addressed in multiple ways, but specific enough to enhance the value of Cardano for everyone. + +**Challenge question examples** + +Below are a couple examples of challenge questions: + +**Too specific** + +_How can stake pool operators based in southern Europe make their pool more attractive delegators in the next 2 months?_ + +This challenge question addresses only stake pool operators in Southern Europe. Cardano is a global ecosystem which allows participation in many different ways. The challenge question should help everyone. + +**Too broad** + +_How can we make Cardano more useful?_ + +Of course, we want Cardano to be more useful but this challenge doesn't give the participants any parameters to spark their creativity. Constraints are necessary to help the community address the direct needs of the ecosystem. + +**Just right** + +_How can we encourage entrepreneurs to develop businesses on Cardano in the next six months?_ + +This challenge has a time frame and addresses a community which is important to the entire Cardano community. Furthemore, it can be addressed in many different ways through both technical and non-technical contributions. However, writing challenge questions is only one important part of Project Catalyst. Addressing those challenges in a clear and concise manner is also necessary to identifying the most impactful ideas for Project Catalyst. + +## Tags + +Please add tags to your proposal if you are looking for collaborators/advice/implementers. diff --git a/src/fr/resources/README.md b/src/fr/resources/README.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..53dfed2b --- /dev/null +++ b/src/fr/resources/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,76 @@ + + +# Resources + + +

It is a fund filled up by a portion of Cardano epoch rewards, and can be spent to implement different proposals. The decision how to distribute the fund is made by Cardano stakeholders participating in the Catalyst project through a decentralized voting procedure. There is no voting privacy in the current version of protocol yet. + +There are several main types of participants in Fund3. _Proposers_ are those who request funding from the treasury by submitting proposals. _Voters_ are registered stakeholders who decide on proposals. _Community advisers_ are reputable community members who initially evaluate proposals before providing them to voters. _Referrers_ are those who give recommendations to proposers what kind of proposal it is better to submit. + +Fund3 lasts around 1.5 month (from 2021-Feb-17 till 2021-Apr-02). + +The funding volume is \$500,000 worth of ADA (according to ada market value on a day funding is distributed). There are measures to prevent risks based on price fluctuation\: proposals will be paid the $ value they requested in ADA according to ADA valuation at reward distribution date (April 2th). +Fund intention is to engage people to submit proposals addressing the fund challenge +**"How can we encourage developers and entrepreneurs to build Dapps and businesses on top of Cardano in the next 6 months?"** + +## How to submit a proposal? + +Using the Ideascale innovation platform, everyone can submit a proposal for free for further discussion. For the convenience of users, templates of proposals will be presented on Ideascale, and a [proposal guideline is provided](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oE_cnP0gksdAanXV4w5DYaDNp_tbYEvyHhTUG4HYZ3Q/edit). A proposal should contain comprehensive information about the proposed project: ideas, deadlines and required funding. Proposals further are reviewed and filtered by community advisers according to impact, feasibility and auditability ([See community advisor guideline](https://docs.google.com/document/d/13GDOj2vuxZzQttagfgnS3hbnP65xsSsWbf_6TURLI_U/edit#)). Thoughts of advisers (compliance of the required funding with the declared spending goals, etc.) are represented as proposal metadata and provided for proposal registration on the Catalyst blockchain. + +## Proposal lifecycle + +After a proposal is submitted to Ideascale, it is evaluated by community advisers who must be real people with verified and transparent identities (with valid accounts in social media with Cardano participation history, like Cardano ambassadors) registered and approved on Ideascale two weeks before the voting. + +The proposal submission (moving from Ideascale to the blockchain) is called a registration (pre-voting) stage and starts on 2021-Feb-17. It lasts till 2021-Mar-03 when the snapshot is done. + +Then on 2021-Mar-05 the voting stage starts (it lasts 19 days, till 2021-Mar-24) and Cardano holders submit their ballots. + +The winners are selected using a _fuzzy threshold voting_. This is a Yes-No-Abstain voting system with a specific feature: the voting procedure depends not only on the score of candidates but also on the amount of funds requested by each proposal that allows obtaining more accurate results. + +Based on the voting, proposals are ranked by sum of votes and funded in order of community support: _Yes voted stake_ - _No voted stake_. If the amount requested by a proposal is larger then the remaining fund amount, it is skipped. A proposal must have 15% more Yes votes than No votes (measured in Fund3 participation stake) to be eligible for funding. E.g. a proposal receiving 10 Yes votes and more than 8.5 No votes would not receive funding. A high level of participation in the voting is expected, so 15% of community approval is quite reasonable value for the threshold. + +During a tally (post voting) stage (it lasts 9 days, till 2021-Apr-02) votes are counted and the results are published. The winning proposals get the required funding right after that (without special control of proposals execution and additional payments on proposals). It is assumed that large payments are made only to well-established teams; projects requiring long-term funding are consistently supported in Fund3, Fund4, etc., with a discussion in the community about how well the previous phase was completed. + +## How to vote for proposals? + +To be able to vote, a Cardano stakeholder must have at least 2950 ADA (or $1000 on 2021-Jan-15) (_voting stake threshold_) and voluntarily hold them for a predefined period of time (till the end of the voting stage). That is required to define the precise number of voters in the system (and incentivize them to vote responsibly), as well as to calculate the voting power of each participant and the corresponding rewards for voters. + +The minimal voting stake threshold is partly defined so that to have a reasonable maximal expected number of voters to keep effectiveness of the voting procedure. Taking the voting stake threshold of 2950 ADA along with the assumptions that voters are rewarded with 14% of the total treasury fund and interest rate for cryptocurrency investors is around 10%, in the rational participation model we obtain that the maximal expected number of voters is 28,589 voters (that allows the voting protocol to operate normally). The detailed explanation of how this value is calculated can be found [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/10DoE5oJ1J90spVNt__v8KRUScwkFjar22qfd38pIZL0/edit). + +The voting is done through the Catalyst Voting Application. Voters mark proposals in the ballot as Yes, No or Abstain. The voter's power of vote for each proposal is proportional to the voting stake held by the voter. It does not matter how many proposals are voted (one, several or all proposals), each voted proposal is supported/rejected by the whole voter's stake (if the proposal is not voted, it is automatically marked as Abstain). + +The marked ballot should be submitted to the blockchain till the end of the voting stage (to be counted in tally). A fee on the ballot submission and resubmission is 1 voting token (needed for DoS protection). A voting token is the token generated on the blockchain to signify voting power. For every 1 ada you use for registration, you will automatically receive 1 voting token on the Catalyst blockchain that is only valid for Fund3 voting period (these tokens can be used on the Catalyst blockchain for voting in Fund3 and nowhere else). + +## Incentives + +_Voters incentive_ + +14% of the treasury fund goes to voters' reward. The value is chosen as a trade-off between treasury efficiency (the volume of funded projects) and security (the volume of the honest rational fund involved in the voting). The voter's reward is proportional to the voting power: reward\_i = (stake\_i / stake\_total) \* (ADA worth of $70,000). + +The detailed explanation of how voter's reward is calculated can be found [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z2qLzGbLQxLgfDKqnTZFTL3IM28V8uUykptng0p5jbE/edit). + +_Community advisers incentive_ + +Community advisers are incentivised to prepare high quality evaluation and review the maximum number of proposals by paying rewards. 4% of the treasury fund goes to community advisers' reward. + +We assume that every adviser is invited to review any proposal and can see how many reviews are already submitted. Community advisers are rewarded at the end of the evaluation process through a lottery: 3 winners among reviewers are randomly selected for each proposal and given equal amounts of tokens (note that low-quality proposals are excluded from the lottery). + +_Referral reward_ + +1% of the treasury fund goes to referrers (equal amount distributed between all referrers who referred to a funded proposal per funded proposal). + +_Reviewing reviewers reward_ + +1% of the treasury fund goes to reward veteran community advisors who evaluate reviews (equal amount distributed between all of them). + +\*\*\* + +Fund3 assumes the voting process is open to community members. During this phase we aim to test behaviour of independent users participating in the voting, explore the social dynamics of the community and receive feedback on the voting experience. + +## Glossary + +_Proposers_ - those who request funding from the treasury by submitting proposals. + +_Voters_ - registered stakeholders who decide on proposals. + +_Community advisers_ - reputable community members (real people with transparent identities) who initially evaluate proposals before providing them to voters. + +_Referrers_ - those who give recommendations to proposers what kind of proposal it is better to submit. + +_Ideascale_ - a platform where participants can submit proposals for further discussion. + +_Fuzzy threshold voting_ - a modified Yes-No-Abstain voting system (the voting procedure also takes into account the amount of funds requested by each proposal). + +_Voting stake threshold_ - a minimum amount of ADA a voter must have and voluntarily hold till the end of the voting stage. + +_Voting token_ - a token generated on the blockchain at voter's registration to signify voting power and used by the voter for paying fees on the ballot submission and resubmission.
