Simple Summary
In order to incentivize existing GNO holders to immediately become active in the GnosisDAO, the GnosisDAO should merkledrop a 5% bonus to all Gnosis Safe addresses that participate in GIP snapshot voting within the first month after the GnosisDAO launches.
Abstract
The GnosisDAO will use a merkledrop to distribute, pro-rata, 5% of the GNO balance held in Gnosis Safes and used to vote in the GnosisDAO within the first month after the GnosisDAO launches. For example, a safe that holds 100 GNO and casts a vote for this (or any other) GIP proposal, within the time limit, would receive 5 GNO tokens in the merkledrop.
Motivation
The motivation for this proposal is to immediately activate existing and new GNO token holders to become active in GnosisDAO governance decisions. This proposal would also help to further distribute GNO tokens in the community.
Specification
The merkledrop will use an instance of Balancer Labsâ erc20-redeemable contracts and an instance of Balancer Labsâ claim interface.
More detail will be added to the specification as becomes available.
Rationale
A merkledrop should be used, as opposed to other designs, so as to reduce the upfront gas cost and to require recipients to actively claim their bonus tokens.
