Bounty #1: 🛠 Use Aragon OSx to solve a problem in your local community [$2,500]

👀 Description

  • Like many other projects in the ecosystem, Aragon came out of the need to solve some of the world's largest issues.
  • Corruption, climate change, terrorism - these are threats the world must solve together. And yet building together often requires trust among strangers and can lead to centralization of power.
  • To solve this, Aragon OSx is a DAO framework, enabling communities to manage their assets in a decentralized and trustless way.
  • Through its modular architecture, organizations can easily install and uninstall plugins into their DAOs, enabling greater transparency and equity within communities.
  • Through this prize, we want to see teams use crypto to solve a pressing issue within your communities - be it the oversight of a property or public good (like a park or a school), the incentive of certain collective behaviors (like using tokens for rewards and voting power), the management of assets for a specific mission, or any other idea that comes to mind!
  • Whether you decide to build your own plugin, dApp or custom DAO - we’re looking for fun, creative projects who want to leverage the power of on-chain governance to solve a problem in their local community and make the world a better place.

✅ Requirements

  • a) Must be a solution to a local problem or need (wherever local is to you) - i.e. park management, neighborhood elections, university clubs, etc.
  • b) Submission can be a dApp, an Aragon OSx plugin, or any other prototype.
  • c) Submission needs to leverage Aragon in some way (App, OSx, CLI, SDK).
  • d) Must submit a project description, a pitch including a demo, a Github repository with a README on how to run the project, as well as a working prototype.
  • e) Bonus points for creativity and innovation!

👩🏽‍⚖️ Judging Criteria

  • a) Having an innovative solution to a local problem
  • b) Understanding and usage of Aragon OSx
  • c) Meeting of the requirements
  • d) Bonus points for a user-friendly UX and good docs

Bounty #2: 💰Build a plugin that helps DAOs raise funds [$2,500]

👀 Description During the last bull run, DAOs proved to be a great mechanism for raising funds. Projects like ConstitutionDAO, for example, were able to show the world how raising funds in crypto could lead to “real-world” actions and impact. Some examples of characteristics that have made this possible:

  • a) DAO tokens added to liquidity pools. This enables DAO tokens to be instantly exchanged with other assets, granting them liquidity and value.
  • b) Bonding curves as a way of ossifying the relationship between token price and supply.
  • c) Rage quit functionality, meaning a person can leave the DAO and take a representative share of the treasury’s value based on how many DAO tokens they own.
  • d) Among other non-technical characteristics like good marketing, relatable mission, good roadmap, trusted team, etc.. With this bounty, we want to see an Aragon OSx Plugin that enables DAOs to raise funds easily - be it through facilitating any of the above mentioned examples, or through crafting your own strategy! All ideas are valid.

✅ Requirements

  • a) The submission should facilitate Aragon DAOs to raise funds
  • b) The submission should leverage Aragon OSx
  • c) The submission should be at least deployed to a testnet chain
  • d) Submission should include a demo and documentation on how to get the project up and running locally

👩🏽‍⚖️ Judging Criteria

  • a) Effectiveness of the solution to raise funds for DAOs.
  • b) Understanding and usage of Aragon OSx
  • c) Meeting of the requirements.
  • d) Bonus points for a user-friendly UX and great docs.
