[SWAT] Public Debate for the Bureau Candidates

[dreth]

Let’s goooo

@kiriyha

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

I think community engagement, governance involvement, marketing, and SWAT participation are all very important targets that the SWAT should try to attack.

@kiriyha

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?

Very specific tasks that @cryptochrome hasn’t mentioned regarding community engagement + marketing, I think not many more come to mind for me. All his ideas here are excellent and i support them.

I think the only specific thing i’d add are maybe some tooling like what @brianchilders has built in the community launchpad or the dune analytics dashboard.

Another SWAT task could be more technical writing of documentation around the protocol. Tutorials, etc.

More ideas should come with necessities that the DAO and the team consider in the future as well. The SWAT should be an entity that must be leveraged to solve punctual problems that can be assigned gitcoin-style to willing community members.

@kiriyha

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

A board of tasks with completed tasks, continuous activity and engagement from members, growing opportunities for SWAT members to target are all very good measures of success for the SWAT.

@kiriyha

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

As long as I have time and the ability to complete a specific task, absolutely!

@kiriyha

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

Violence

I think a disagreement on the internet should be a give and take thing. I like to think (most) of the discussions i’ve had with @cryptochrome on the lounge channel of the server are a good example of this. An exchange of ideas should take priority over ‘winning the argument’, as with disagreements, there’s no ‘winners’.

I don’t have any specific rules for this, but I think this entirely will depend on the individuals involved in such disagreement. As long as they’re civil, the disagreement can be solved meeting each other in the middle or asking other peers for their input as to what the most optimal path to take is (assuming the disagreement occurs over a decision, the most important kind of disagrement).

@Sid

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

IMO the biggest challenge for any project in crypto is remaining as secure, resilient, safe and credibly neutral as possible. If we manage to keep those in check, almost nothing else matters.
