Cross-Chain Governance Transparency: NEAR HoS & Arbitrum Governance members

DAO Programs & Initiatives Delegate Incentives Program (DIP)
1

Dear Arbitrum Governance members and @SEEDGov,

Not long ago, NEAR Protocol launched its new governance initiative (designed by @gauntlet) — the House of Stake (HoS): NEAR Governance: House of Stake Proposal

We have many Governance members who are also active in Arbitrum, so for now, strictly enforcing conflicts of interest (COI) will be practically impossible.

At the moment, @KlausBrave is assisting Lane Rettig in setting up NEAR governance (Code of Conduct, COI policy, mission, values, etc.). You can read the latest unfiltered updates here:

Let’s keep this discussion open and transparent. Any input or suggestions are very welcome!

Hey! @Dacha

Honestly, from SEEDGov’s perspective, we don’t fully understand the purpose of this thread. Could you please clarify this?

With respect to the DIP, there is no rule preventing delegates from participating in programs from other DAOs, so no “enforcement” mechanism is necessary. We simply ask that delegates disclose any potential conflicts of interest (CoIs).

As Program Managers, if a CoI disclosure—or any other item in the application template—is not properly addressed, we are entitled to disregard the application or request additional information, as the applicant would not have fulfilled the requirement of completing the template appropriately.
