GIP-55: Should GnosisDAO fund Dark Forest DAO for Arena game mode on Gnosis Optimism?
Dark Forest DAO (dfdao) is a team of developers and players that has been building on top of Dark Forest, an open-source, web3 game.
The xDAI team paid dfdao for Phase 1, but disbanded as part of the Gnosis merger before paying dfdao for Phase 2. This proposal is to request payment from GnosisDAO for Phase 2 of dfdao’s work, due to the xDAI / Gnosis merger.
GIP-56: Should GnosisDAO fund student web3 education?
Kairos is a platform that provides an education for students to learn through certifications about the different aspects of the ecosystem free of cost.
Kairos aims to work with key players of the ecosystem to provide a free education.
GIP-58: Karpatkey DAO Service Extension
After the GIP-20 approval, the development and sustainable growth of the Gnosis Chain became a top priority for GnosisDAO. Even though efficient treasury management is still a must for GnosisDAO’s evolution, the scope of Karpatkey’s work has to encompass more in order to take the Gnosis Chain to the next level, co-creating a safe, trustworthy ecosystem.
Karpatkey increased their headcount and went beyond the scope of GIP-20 to be able to adequately cater to Gnosis’ current needs.
This proposal focuses on the Gnosis Chain and treasury development, seeking to reduce risk exposure, develop anti-liquidation bots to increase capital efficiency, update security protocol, run security audits, further improve Karpatkey’s reporting, execute and manage a sustainable rewards plan for new and existing protocols in the GC, and scout attractive new ones to make them part of the GC.
🏔 of the Week
A few weekly tidbits highlighting regular goings on.
🏘 DAO of the Week: Hero DAO
Hero DAO is a community that creates and publishes physical comic books to an open-source platform.
Creators not only own their art and receive reliable compensation, in the form of xDAI, which protects the treasury from market volatility, but they also earn DAO tokens, currently backed by Moon Rock! Media and DAO decisions are owned by fans, like character choices, and they are made by the community using DAOhaus.
To learn about contributing to the DAO, creators can go to the Discord and join a town hall.
🙏 Thank you

Gnosis Chain Team
