Work spaces

A member can indicate the different work spaces they have engaged in and provide an estimate of hours worked in each space.
The spaces are Operations, Website, Governance, Content & Metaverse and Intangible work.
Intangible work is meant to capture contributions not covered by the scope of a work area.

Peer Review

Group

After the survey each contribution is assessed for due diligence by members of the appropriate space work squad - to confirm that there is agreement that the work took place etc.

Reward and evaluation

Cost & Remuneration Calculation

For now we need to calculate manually, this will be upgraded by end of December.

• 40 * 45 = 1800
• other expenses: none
• Livelihood 80% = 1440
• Total amount = 1440 USD + 8 Tarot NFTs
  The ADA/USD exchange rate will be calculated before funds are distributed

Pro-bono & livelihood ratio

Pro-Bono work will be rewarded with a reputation token, that have exclusive contributor NFT drops as utility.
Livelihood work will be remunerated with an hourly rate paid in ADA.
how much % of your contribution is pro-bono and how much livelihood?

• 100 % pro-bono
• 100 % livelihood
• at least: 80% livelihood

The key approach is to capture contributions first and assess value last.
Detailed Explanation below

Why ? Because value led models typically dictate the nature of contributions e.g. a financial incentive contribution model will tend to favor immediate returns, an equal share of rewards upfront will penalize those who have contributed more than others etc.

A contribution led model either tracks or audits ACO member contributions first. Then rewards (in ADA) or recognition (in a Token) are applied to the contribution data afterwards.

Identity

This survey encourages DisCo members to identify themselves as it provides a record of their contribution.

However an anon ID option should be available and peer reviewed per work area.
