Open chad-fi opened 2 years ago
Update from Freiheit: asked luukdao from primedao/kolectivo if he has any suggestion or direct contact. It'd be great to have a direct contact with Balancer as they are planning to launch on Gnosis Chain, so they could be interested in further cooperations with Giveth (like BAL rewards on Gnosis).
Lauren to share DM chadfi with Fabio's handle - discussion to start this week.
Conversation with Fabio started.
Balancer hasn't done many token swaps recently b/c of the veBAL demand. Fabio said they would likely be down to help facilitate a public goods pool a la this tweet:
I would like to proceed with a public goods pool, and in parallel request that Balancer do a BAL<>GIV swap to align us both as partners. I'll word smith something after we get a soft consensus here on how we want to proceed (i.e. BAL<>GIV pool only, PG pool only, PG pool + GIV<>BAL pool)
Other public good DAOs: 1Hive Shapeshift Gitcoin (probably won't do it - can't do LPs) DappNode BrightID Opolis Optimism ENS Panvala
re: Opolis Opolis may be inflationary and drag down GIV price, this would be a non-starter. Perhaps more research into their inflation schedule and token unlock
Panvala is a no-go, see #631

chadfi pinged Optimism contact chadfi posted in Balancer Discord #partnerships channel
As discussed in our last meeting, I'm not making much headway with OP or BAL. Freiheit's post didn't gain traction either. Cotabe seems to be making good headway, but before we resort to going for a 1-1 BANK swap, let's do a tweet thread.
Tweet Thread Idea: (1/4): Calling all Public Good DAOs! Let's unite our common communities. [round table meme] maybe tag: · Balancer (BAL) · Radicle (RAD) · DappNode (NODE) · Optimism (OP) · Ethereum Naming Service (ENS) · Aragon (ANT) · Bankless (BANK) (2/4): Instead of creating many 1-to-1 shared pools, a Balancer pool will allow many public good tokens to share one source of liquidity! This will allow supporters of public goods in crypto to easily swap between projects. (3/4): Without the need for incentivizing liquidity, this sustainable swap shared pool will help move us away from mercenary farming and avoid further dilution of public good tokens! (4/4)): Interested in joining? Reach out on Twitter, Discord, or Telegram! [links] For more information, check out this forum post [links]
Thoughts?
Follow up tweet with Medium article if engagement is adequate.
Ping GIV community for Optimism contacts (two-fold, one for BAL pool, one for possible grant).
Talked to Griff about this. He thinks its a good idea, but we don't have the bandwidth to manage it right now. haulting comms and putting this in the icebox.
Fabio, dev at BAL would know who to talk to.
