I’m voting FOR this proposal after carefully weighing the pros and cons. While I acknowledge some concerns raised about potential overlap with the Treasury Management Committee initiative or OpCo, I’ve decided to support this proposal. Although it may not be a perfect solution, it provides a path towards financial sustainability for the DAO and leverages the expertise of a proven team. I believe that RWA represent a crucial investment opportunity and are key to the long-term stability and appeal of the ecosystem.
Besides that, I agree with @Jojo that this should be the last iteration of the STEP program in its current form. Moving forward, we should focus on developing a well-structured handover plan that ensures the necessary expertise is retained - whether through OpCo, TMC, or an alternative solution.
