    • Key difference and reason to explore Rarible is that they have better royalty system
  • Balancer
    • 2 addresses listed as owners
    • Do we need to upgrade from v1?- Yes!
    • Penguin- main thing we get with upgrade is ability to passively invest the reserve pool

      • Not a feasible upgrade if we want to add tokens or adjust fees
  • DefileZebra asked Penguin: When MoonDao?
    • Team has been recharging after hackathon
    • Misanth: How scalable is the protocol?
      • Bring it all the way to badger and have badger put it on their platform
    • Penguin that’s the first level, rather than forking it and making it our own. Figured out a way to leverage money and make money with it. Next step would be to implement it by taking the project from hackathon to staging/production.
    • What they did was used a local blockchain spun up with Brownie for testing. Allows you to deposit BTC, (badger bounty) and takes BTC deposited uses it on AAVE and takes a loan to leverage the money usually 3x but could go 10-11 and be healthyish.
      • Generates supply income off the balance that was deposited.
      • Then takes and AAVE token generated interest and sells it to buy wrapped BTC to pay back the loan to support withdraw.
      • Policy itself readjusts.
      • Gets pricefeed from Chainlink Oracle.
      • You put money in and it grows -> Money leverages itself to make more money.
      • Use case for metagame would be that ideally, we would be able to get some of our pool excess from Balancer v2 to generate additional wEth and then buy our LP token with the wETH.
      • Use 20% of profits to buy LP tokens and lock them
      • Then uses additional 10% to select random DAO to buy
      • Ideally use the liquidity in balancer pool to generate income
      • Which pool? Penguin seems to think Badger is the spot
  • Mint updates
    • During the process Alec and Michiel are now able to build the XP calculation.
    • Penguin was able to generate the merkle root.
    • Current centralized choke-point is the deployment to the UI.
      • Ran XP and created merkle root and able to get it updated
      • On most recent mint we still needed MetaDreamer to handle the Fleek deployment
    • Alec, Misanth, Michiel worked together for 4+ hours last week to help realize mint
    • Seed calculation that was minted from Aragon was 130 seeds more than the calculation
      • Unaccounted for in the multi-sig?
      • Not in the XP printout
    • Sidenote: You can tell a lot about a person by what they have in their wallet
  • Mushashi

      • Bacon
        • Following crypto space and was excited for Ethereum. Wanted to get involved and found Raidguild, but didn’t have coding skills. Found link to metagame through newsletter. Was short .03 pseed for patron role and both Luxumbra and Peth offered as much as a gift. Bacon was impressed by the fact that multiple people were willing to back what was written in the documentation and were willing to gift it.
      • Chair
        • In the desert in Joshua Tree in 2016 at an impromptu rave. Arsenie from graph protocol told him about Ethereum. Started following Peterpan and Metacartel. Moved to Boston in 2018 and decided that he only wanted to work in software. Became a support engineer in Healthcare industry. On M arch 31 quit job, and same day spoke at MetaFest about Proof of onboarding (POO). Met penguin in LSDAO.
      • Penguin
        • When penguin started in web3 was running a text based game like D&D or Wow but no graphics (Waterdeep). Sebastian and Ronin reached out for help testing Ethernal and penguin gave feedback. Entire game was done with NFTs. Ronin shared the NFT bible. Initial reaction was that if truly interoperable, there is no way to stop cheaters. Over many discussions helped reframe ownership. Found Metagame, Metacartel and Raidguild and read some initial posts. Very different than regular job as a software developer. Thought this was better than selling sports tickets through APIs. Covid hit and decided to DAO fulltime while developing. Metagame is the church of web3 for penguin.
          • Previously analyzed recessive traits in axis by ID
          • Undergrad in bio informatics
      • Artcore
        • Played avagotchi and found voice, then met Musashi and became friends. Invited to Metagame and Metacartel. In the airport with extra time today and joined onboarding call. Has an idea with Musashi that he wants to write up.
  • Throne takes the floor to present Tarot: What it is, what it means to him
    • Chair will tell why he is doing presentation on Tarot cards
      • Chair was explaining NFTs and Compared them to Tarot cards and Throne was hooked.
    • History of Tarot and what its used for.
      • 1400s Italy or France was first use.
      • 1800s was recorded that Tarot came from Egypt, but there is no hard evidence of where it came from.
      • Purpose was to communicate with subconsciousness and make decisions and plan life.
      • Then was used for commercial purpose and witchcraft and to tell the future.
      • Throne utilizes Tarot for self-exploration.
      • All religions of the world were trying to destroy tarot, would burn cards and owner!
    • Throne has at least 15 different decks.
    • Specific cards:
      • The fool/card #0. Dog and song, all the little details have meanings. Messages for the subconscious mind. Everyone has a card they associate with, and it can change over time. Can be first card, last card or in between, represents youthful energy. Reason called the fool is because is new in this space, lots to learn but lots of energy. It multiplies powers of whatever card its next to.
        • There is art and can be regional.
        • shows us various deck’s version of the fool/card #0
      • Magician
        • Represents has all 4 elements on the table (air, water, fire, earth) has abilities and powers to create.
        • Shows several examples of magician
      • Death card
        • End of something and rebirth. Not a bad card, mostly a positive card depending on where it lands in the reading
      • The Devil
        • Everyone is afraid but it’s not a bad card. Represents ego or addictions. Negative influences from within. Lives in all of us.
        • Several examples
    • Different decks feature different art
    • A person can do a reading without being a scholar just by interpreting the art
    • Tarot is kind of game with self or can be like a psychology session
      • Makes a path of possibilities and can help answer questions
    • Throne has a Card of the day with breakfast
      • What you want to explore that day
      • A tool to communicate with self
    • Tarot has been misused by people trying to profit
    • Gnomeski: has some history and a 30 year old deck.
      • Found it to be very useful as a tool to see things on the periphery. Doing a reading can broaden the mind to possibilities.
      • Tune into part of self or energy and focusing on a single card, meditating on it, and trying to feel it and fuse with it.
    • Chair has a question for Throne:
      • What if we made new combinations and maybe having more than just 78 cards?
        • Tarot card creator needs to understand symbology and would not make sense to make new card combos
        • card 36 and card 17 symbols wouldn’t go together
      • The Tower for example- not a great card, symbolizes expectations not met or breakage of something
        • What about 3d art for the tower? Music attached maybe?
        • this would be cool
      • Symbology needs to be close but can make it unique
      • Penguin: Do a daily draw and then if you like the reading then mint it?
      • Gnomeski: spread creates a virtual 3d reading

      • Raise too much, too little…what happens to your economy.
      • Base it off of ostrams principals and the human side of DAOs
      • Don’t want to enable token engineers to be the technocrats.
      • But instead get everyone participating and help people
      • Already had commons stack and token engineering inside metagame…should we officially onboard token engineering commons as well.

S3W14 Community Gathering
19/09/2021

NFT workflow understanding what happened with MCON. Deadline was too late, should have been 10th. Tenfinney - saying the artist did not have enough heads up. Is apologetic for his part. It was very last minute. Minting related issues were discussed and actions required by multi-sig. General round of what is happening esp regarding help needed.

Chair

What I did last week: NFT thing hugest failure. should have not extended deadline. Moving forwards - Next time be very strict about deadlines etc. There was so much confusion about platform use.

penguin saying stop beating yourself up. We got 1 item in.

FT this is an opportunity to build a good structured flow in future.

TF title, description, min bid, reserve, unlockables and co-ord distro. How to display physicals. Metafactory is taking on all the commercial processes. Super involved and responsibility. TF - no physical, unlockable content in future to avoid all the issues with logistics with those NFTs.

chair Playbooks- Been too busy. Excited about pursuing tenfinney donut plan.

Help: TF- will run through Donut UI…

Fearless Thompson

What I did last week:

added stuff to content strategy for twitter ‘Metagam Shower’ , still about to implement Breaking Jargon, 50 pieces need scheduling o0ver 2 months. Focusing on money market. Will pay off, must not be dropped. Olympus DAO can be used nby us to create bonds. Sees as a big opportunity. Community will benefit because of ebbs and flows relating to seed value.

Video: bogie maybe needs extra help with video help, he needs a bunch of help.

Michiel

What I did last week: Same page as FT for ETHonline. Calculate distro for SC is needed now… Missing first parts of process. Need to get seed minting script down better with merkle, json related processes…

penguin excel sheet is handmade, last mint after mint MD had to update it and he said totals mismatched, so he had to take over. Tutorial on it is not there for grain calculation. Calculated excel sheet from yarn grain, made into json then spreadsheet. Michiel did similar and had an error. Observable script issues. Michiel will connect with Tina from SC to go over it. Once figure out make a tight tutorial on whole process. Focusing on minting process, will connect to penguin… Penguin saying have another XP fairy meeting? Find a good time for that.

Gnomeski - MD needs to download better.

TF - Concerned about a chaos/vacuum where main admins were.

penguin . Hammad has been doing all of it still. MD IS still doing what we need. Chatted to him at MCON and Bacon also chatted to him about many tokenomic aspects etc… it is still good with MD and we,

Michiel - go over stuff among ourselves and find main bottlenecks to bring to MD.

penguin - let us be more focused this time. Maybe do with just 4 people and prevent interference questions.

Michiel - Gnomeski, had issues

TF- help MD to DL simply and offload the responsibility. Very detailed questions and info required list to be prepared before approaching him.

penguin - Bacon has a list of MD based queries for him. The other bit is the BAL upgrade. Tina at SC good idea to get as many answers as poss before hassling MD.

Penguin

gonna be taking on a FT position, maybe make biuxmaster in charge of merch as Champ. FT- does anyone have a connection to BAL? Pull some strings for a 1 click? penguin saying not poss with private pools maybe.

Been at MCOn representing and speaking to Austin Griffith and Kesinia? Made lots of points about gamification to entice and engage people.

Tenfinney (TF)- Working on Chakra based scaffold eth stuff… how to get get involved more with him? Moonshot collective could be good to hook into. penguin agrees. TF - how do we move into that?

penguin - Austin supports ecosystem projects via buidlguidl and they may start paying us potentially.

TF -How to do it?

penguin - not based on voting.

TF - Can you be point of contact potentially?

penguin - needs refund for sponsorship, chatted o peth liquidity to multi-sig for ETH. To make quorum for votes to be lowered which is also a smart idea for SEEDs.

Bagsy - thought that was already agreed?

Penguin - Not specified how much etc…

Penguin - claim contract is still bugged for some people, how to sort it out?

Bagsy - it is not browser specific etc by his.

Michiel - nothing has changed at GitHub.

penguin - maybe response not built properly in first place…

Michiel - ask balancer ?

penguin - some database somewhere with lower casing of eth addresses.

Bagsy - be good to create a circumventing process.

Michiel - Last mint bad mint and need to get it back.

Gnomeski - saying what about the extra admin rights of ownership.

TF - lexdao had issues with all this stuff. Is gonna be an ongoing issue for DAOs.

penguin - it has been the worst bit.

TF - nuclear option?

penguin - violate s experiment.

Chatting about Gnomeski issue and it will be okay! because… either can be sorted in new mint or DAO will re-mint him the SEED trapped in claim.

Misanth

Cohort went ok. Should now activate players as end of season. Bring guild innkeepers should report who earnt player rank. Minting still has 6 days to be a month. Graduate people first. We need an extra Champs ring call to make an address about this. Only obviously active people can be retained?

TF - watch out with too harsh kicking. Maybe incentives being stronger would call in these peripheral people who have great skills.

Rankko we have over 150 engaged octos!

Tf - it does need culling based on simple DM responses.

Misanth - Looks at it like an advertising campaign. Open office day.

A lot people seem really good etc bur, 3-4 days lurking and gone. Confusing space. We can help some. Open all the doors then, allow them to make their choices.

FT - Under impression that a video library as an onbording resource. Then peeps can either get involved or not.

TF - How can we not motivate with SEED? How can we not expose the value to be had better?

Bogie being discussed, how to create enough support ie via initiative, looking forward to The Creditor from SC. He should be offered money etc…
TF - How to expose the pay structure to attract people. Make it blatant how much money is available etc

Misanth - How currently works is we offer seeds., or other .

penguin - retool was a thing for setting up initiatives for SC json value feeds.

Rannkko

Basically not so much. Tommi wants to solve purging and Mis and Tommy been doing a lot.

Can someone help with Dunbars number, where we claim we are full at above Dunbar when we are not at 107 players. Create a meta academy for educational purposes.

Gnomeski - how is it different?

Rankko - We are onboarding machine and we wanna educate as many peeps as poss, educational material for normies.

    • Depends on how was created and up to the creator/event administrator
  • Misanth

Summary:

  • More data would sure be nice to help understand diversity gaps in web3. Jovian is keenly interested in this and is working to get actionable data and design processes that reduce/remove gender bias. I don’t think it was ever actually mentioned on the call, but she has a gitcoin grant here: https://gitcoin.co/grants/2959/designing-gender-diversity-in-daos or connect on twitter @joviannetwork where the deck she was sharing is pinned.

  • Jovian met Peth through Panvala and will discuss Designing Diversity into DAOs
  • Quick poll of females that choose to identify themselves:
    • ~18% women on this call
  • Best way to increase female participation is to welcome women and invite them to talk about what they are passionate about
    • Engage and invite them to have a voice and then listen
  • When invited as an “other” one might be limiting their voice
  • Storybook deck and Jovian invites participation in the conversation (also pinned on twitter @JovianNetwork)
    • Might make some ppl angry, because current state of diversity is that needs to be improved
    • Sidenote: Research shows that women are less trusted unless you see their face
    • Designing our DAOs for diversity
      • Why do we want to talk about women, rather than other minorities?
        • ½ of everything is women, if you can brin women in you can bring women in from other cultures too
      • Women will change the collective traits enough and women are more naturally focused on inclusion
    • Gitcoin and bankless report of ~422 ppl in the space (survey), >150 chose to skip the question
      • 250ish ppl that responded to the gender question
        • 29 said female
        • 202 said male
        • others answered something to the effect of they would prefer not to answer
    • Critical mass theory says you need to have 30% representation from any group to impact policy
    • Github data indicates that 95% of contributors are men
    • The tough thing about web3 is that ppl have to find their own way
  • Step 1: Survey the field
    • Collect present data on experience, pay hours, work life balance, values and advancement
      • There are surveys: Gitcoin, She256
        • Gitcoin has collected a lot of data, but didn’t sex de-segrate the data
          • Did men and women report having different values?
    • Partnering with Diamond DAO…. first step was to look at existing data and then will conduct their own survey
  • Step 2: truth seeking research
    • Differences between M&W values and experience
    • Does the unpaid transition to web3 impact women more than men?
      • Time scarcity from caring for others
      • Less wealth to start with so less of a buffer to jump into uncertainty
    • Yes, data is on chain- but doesn’t show details of work life balance and doesn’t really show what people are actually making for their time away from their passions
      • Lack of standardized pay means that inequity could actually increase
      • May be able to see some numbers on public ledger but can’t see the picture
  • Abundance and rewards
    • Jovian asks: how do you get women to accept the risks and step into abundant mindset?
      • How do we expect women to trust that they will be reimbursed in this paradigm shift?
      • For women that transition to trust and abundance may be tougher because of unpaid hours to care for others
      • If men’s identity is more in their work and women’s Identity and more in the family
        • Then she is borrowing time from serving her family to work, feels pressure to compress her work time because investment in family life
        • Challenge us to “think across the divide”
          • Men: you could have the freedom to work 2 hours and have more time for the family
          • Women are likely to fear that those 2 hours may not amount to much
    • Anonymity-
      • A closer look at open-source work environments point to making gender bias worse
    • Penguin- sadbirdsclub would often prefer to spend her time with the family than putting in a few hours on web3 work bc she feels like it might not be of value
    • J: you have to experience the new way of work to trust it, but such a high barrier and concern/reservations
      • Having an “agent” is a huge win and a huge strategy (like Penguin serving for Sadbirdsclub- who makes dope stickers, in case you are new here)
  • Taekikz
    • This is not a problem unique to web3, have we seen efforts in the tech space and what could we learn from those experiences?
  • Nothing better than diversity for solving problems
  • Women in general bring higher emotional intelligence
  • More variation in perspectives creates more holistic solutions
  • I don’t think it was ever actually mentioned on the call, but Jovian has a gitcoin grant here: https://gitcoin.co/grants/2959/designing-gender-diversity-in-daos
  • Thena from SourceCred joins us for an AMA
    • About Thena:
      • They/them non binary person
      • Background in software engineering at Uni, and into big corporate pipeline
      • In web3 for about a year
    • Metagame instance of SourceCred
    • SourceCred home page has a bunch of resources
    • Why do contributors have different seed to XP ratios?
    • Recent and balanced policy
      • Recent- looks at all historical Xp but uses historical decay to value more recent contributions
        • Doesn’t care about seed from the past
        • Gaps can be widened
        • Can create gaps over time but tends to be the more stable week to week
    • SourCred instance on github
      • File config details are in grain.json
    • Example
