PIP-XX: Understanding and Improving ParaSwap DAO Governance- A proposal by DeepDAO

Thanks for your comments, @Albist & @stikers

I think we need to do the opposite, bring people together rather than compartmentalising them.

100%. And I think this proposal basically does just that - find ways to get more people involved long term in the DAO. If we know the people better, the DAO can prioritize initiatives and create better onboarding flows. It could also greatly improve communications. For example, you could write to them and say “We would really like to talk to you because of your specific interests in x, y, z. DeepDAO identified you as possible contributor for our subteams X, Y, Z. Let us work together. Please contact x@paraswap.network.

Another thing to note is that at present, the DAO may not have the best picture of all its members. Apart from the members that are active on Discord and forum, ideas and preferences of other people may be currently going unheard. Initiatives focused on them has the potential to bridge this gap and onboard those people to the DAO.

we’re not here to try and please our members, but to help the protocol evolve as best we can.

I can relate to this. Ultimately, we are trying to develop the best version of a product. Even though this proposal is not directly about improving the core infrastructure, it could be a major advantage in doing so. You could use the data to find the right beta-testers, analyze the viability of certain working groups and who to reach out to, and at the end of the day have a stronger and more vibrant community committed to the product’s success.
