:star2: Citizenship Update Season 7

@optimistic_emily shared about:

  • Expertise is important in impact measurement
    • In Retro Funding 5, OP Stack experts produced an overall more accurate allocation, as judged by stakeholders
    • Expert judgment is an essential input to measurement
    • Separating out measurement from expressing higher level values / preferences allows us to leverage expertise without excluding other stakeholders
  • Opt-in bias means self-selection doesn’t create a diverse group of participants
    • The resulting group (who volunteer themselves) ended up being very similar to Citizens on demographic characteristics and preferences
  • Season 7
    • ~150 Guest voters were invited to participate from the following categories: community contributors, Superchain members, past top 30 recipients of Retro Funding and elected officials
    • Citizenship is about being a stakeholder of the Collective and expressing values and preferences on decisions that have no right or wrong answer.
    • The Citizenry should be a balanced group of the Collective’s stakeholders.
    • In Season 7, we want to learn more about the Collective’s stakeholders.
  • Here are some questions we want to answer:
    • Are the persona groups we uncovered in interviews reflected in the preferences related to Retro Funding?
    • Will some groups have higher voter turnout than others?
    • Will team members vote independently from each other or form voting blocs?

:bar_chart: Decision Market (OP Futarchy Experiment)

  • Futarki OP Decision Market Experiment launching on February 27 and will last for three weeks. You can join even if it has started.

  • Five projects will compete for a 100K grant, with forecasters predicting TBL growth.
  • Impact of experiment will be measured on June 12th, with forecasters rewarded based on accuracy.
