Giveth Core Team Compensation - November 2024

November 2024

Proposal Information

Proposal description:

This is a funding proposal to pay for contributor monthly compensation. For this month, a portion of the payment to contributors were paid in stable coins by Griff (DAI, USDC and USDT on Polygon and Optimism). This is a proposal requesting reimbursement.

Proposal Rationale:

Griff is a GIV maxi, and to facilitate some of the payments of stable tokens to our contributors while we build a better treasury management system, he pays people in stable coins and asks for reimbursement here. Hopefully this process will cause upward pressure on the GIV price as our contributors use stable coins to buy GIV, instead of the opposite, where our contributors get paid in GIV and then sell the GIV to pay bills.

Also, while we sort out a streamlined process for payments, we believe this is the efficient way of paying people on time and without delay. Should there be better alternatives, your suggestions and feedback are welcome.
