RE: Requirements for SIP Submissions

Hey @Delegates @Geraldine & Everyone
:uk: Do you think it’s normal for anyone to submit a SIP? (Not delegates, we agree)
Shouldn’t this be filtered by a minimum level of involvement in our ecosystem? This could be assessed by considering assets owned (from Land to Sand, including assets and avatars), contributions to the ecosystem (engagement/creations/participation)?
Or at least have a guarantor/sponsor system for those who are completely external to TSB?

:fr: est- ce que vous trouvez normal que n’importe qui puisse présenter un SIP? (Pas les délégués on est d’accord)
Est-ce que cela ne devrait pas être filtré par un niveau d’implication minimum dans notre ecosysteme. Qui pourrait être estimé en considérant les assets possédés ( des Land au Sand en passant par les assets et avatars), les contributions à l’ecosystème (engagement/créations/participation) ?
Ou au moins avoir un systeme de garant/parrain pour celui qui serait totalement extérieur à TSB ?

Thank you for initiating this discussion — I believe it’s an important one, regardless of what prequalifications are ultimately decided.

I’m trying to figure out what you mean when you say “filtered by a minimum level of involvement”

Hey Lanzer, I just copy and past an answer I gave to Batmann who ask me more or less the same question :

This is mainly something I was thinking about, and I wanted some opinions.
This has already given me a good idea: in the French Discord channel, someone suggested linking a TSB account to the DAO. If the link isn’t established, you can’t submit a SIP. This seems like a solution to me; I’d add that a delay would be even better.
For example, a request can only be made 48 hours or 1 week after the accounts have been synced.
This isn’t meant to complicate the process, but as you say in your message, no one appreciates people coming and going just to scrape together money. It seems important to me that Sandfam (in its broadest sense) be prioritized.

I hope it answer your quzstion.
If not…ask again, in french :face_with_tongue:
joke :)) , just let me know

Linking our TSB account to the forum would be a good thing. It would make it possible to give certain privileges, like being able to post suggestions (or post at all). The only issue is that it requires some collaboration with TSB so they could provide a secure API to access account info. That would take some work on their part and I’m not sure they would agree :sweat_smile:
Anyway, I’m not entirely sure how Discourse works but there could be two roles for basic users :

  • Unverified : Can only reply to a thread / react
  • Verified : Can do everything else

Hi @sebga, the DAO allow everyone to submit ideas because the process itself ensures quality and relevance.

Before an idea becomes a SIP, the community has a chance to “vote” and provide feedback. After that, the admin team curates the proposal, conducts a background review, and proceeds with KYC once it’s accepted.

It’s also intersting to note that certain proposals such as web3 ecosystem integrations or charitable initiatives are likely to interest/resonate with stakeholders beyond The Sandbox ecosystem.

Hey @Geraldine
I completely understand. While I don’t doubt the process itself and believe in opening up to new opportunities, I believe it would bring greater cohesion to the DAO and the community in general.
We’re not closed-minded, but we’re not a mill either. (not sure it’s correct in english but you understand the french meaning of “rentrer comme dans un moulin”)

That’s just my feeling; I have the impression it’s a bit mixed.
I don’t know; the discussion is here to tell us.

Got it yes! Thanks for launching the conversation. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
I guess also with the Grant Program, more people outside of the ecosystem will discover us as well.
