Giveth Core Team Compensation - October 2023

Proposal Information

Proposal description:

For October 2023, contributors were paid in stable coins by Griff (DAI, USDC and USDT on Polygon). This is a proposal requesting reimbursement.

Proposal Rationale:

Griff is a GIV maxi, and to facilitate the payments of stable tokens to our contributors while we still 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 would be greatly appreciated.

Team Information

For this month, we paid 41 Giveth contributors. Details of the paid contributors are as follows:

Funding Information

For this month, Giveth earned $13,374.66 from the technical partnership with General Magic (GM). Non-technical work for GM projects have the same invoicing arrangement.

:pray:t4: Praise to these Giveth Unicorns who brought in revenue to Giveth through providing their services to GM:

  • Moenick
  • Alireza
  • Mitch
  • Mateo
  • Ramin
  • Maryjaf
  • Suga

On a separate note, the compensation of GM contributors who works for Giveth goes to the GM wallet (this is indicated in each of their Giveth work agreements). Instead of Giveth receiving the revenue earned, this will be deducted from the amount that Giveth pays to GM contributors. If there’s any excess, GM will need to pay Giveth any amount due.

To summarize this month’s figures:
