Conviction Voting #12

Open MaxKaay opened 3 years ago

MaxKaay commented 3 years ago

⚡️ Challenge:

To pay out small efforts or proposals with only little fund requests they still need to reach a fixed quorum of 10% - no matter the amount of funding requested. This triggers slow reaction time and voter apathy of the community - where everyone needs to vote.

🦋 Desired Outcome

Let's build a conviction voting module for community treasuries allowing to adapt the quorum based on the amount requested. There will be no deadline or time constraints - conviction voting is a continuous voting mechanism that is passed once the "conviction" or relative quorum of funds requested is reached.

🎯 Action Points:

Research on how to implement in Habitat rollup - see research group at Common Stack. Coming up with an equation that balances funds requested and funds in the treasury - allowing smaller quorum for only small proposals.
