[SWAT] Public Debate for the Bureau Candidates

Thanks @kiriyha, @sid, @bZ1 for the question ! I will try to answer as best I can

Which area of the DAO activity deserves the most attention from the SWAT program?

As already underlined by the previous answers the most important challenge from my point of view is the recognition of StakeWise as a major actor of the sector by the individual stakers community.

I think that while the StakeWise team needs to focus on institutional partnerships, it is the role of the DAO/SWAT team to grow the community’s awareness. The TVL will follow !

What are the examples of some specific tasks you would lobby to get included into the SWAT program? What would be your winning selection criteria for these tasks?

@cryptochrome already did a great job to regarding community engagement, I totally support them.

I think we may want to run more large campaign for social media campaign : I would advocate the use of layer3.xyz (for low-level task) and guild.xyz (for community building/Discord role). The use of Dework as stated by @kiriyha is a great suggestion for more specific “one wins all” tasks.

Another idea that came to me is an NFT collection. We would have a task to create the NFT collection itself and another one to mint it. Selection criteria for the former might be very subjective though :wink:

SWAT Bureau might want to have an analytics dashboard to monitor media coverage and brand awareness. Building such a thing could be an important task imho.

What are the metrics by which to judge the success of the SWAT program?

The first indicator of success would be a growing TVL.

The media coverage and the community growth and activity come right after.

Would you participate in the SWAT program as a SWAT member (i.e. completing tasks instead of setting them)?

Not sure to have a lot of time to give if I’m elected. In the opposite case, I will as long I have the skills !

In your opinion, what is the most important rule to follow to ensure a healthy resolution of a disagreement on the internet?

As a manager of a team I can say that discussion and the search for consent is a key to a peaceful and positive community. The ban hammer should be a last resort tool.

What challange do you foresee being the most important to Stakewise in the next 2 years?

The most important challenge is to ease the staking for individual (non-technical) stakers.

However stakewise must also make a broader commitment to the health of the ethereum protocol. IMHO it’s the most important thing : developing a trustless, decentralized web !

What idea or project would you work as the community advocate to try to see implemented/completed by the end of your term? (i.e. Protocol Fee Distribution, architect DAO Structure, etc.)

Having a solid DAO structure and organization is by far the greatest challenge for SWAT Bureau. One cannot decree the birth of a community, it must be built stone by stone. Once in place, the rest will flow.
