Original forum post here

Organizations have a need for a variety of web3 data and information (e.g., number of active users); however, the sources of this data are disparate, contain discrepancies, and lack both detailed descriptions and information on how the metrics are derived (i.e., the source and/or the calculation/transformation).

It is important for the ecosystem to effortlessly access and compare metrics from multiple sources while understanding the precise definition of the metrics.

We validated the need/desire from the community through this forum post and have created full proposal based on our proposed solution for discussion. We look forward to feedback on our first proposal!

Cheers.

I am super supportive of the effort itself!

I find the price point to be very high however. We built a governance dashboard with the same architecture, so I know the work involved. Definitely a big team to achieve the deliverables.

Are you open to a post delivery payment? There is a discussion going on in the Kusama direction channel about potentially using child bounties for milestone based payouts. Alternatively a post delivery proposal or a delayed payout proposal might also work?

We're happy you're super supportive, it's much appreciated. We have a big vision for this over time and want to lay a really solid foundation for growth.

After discussing in the telegram channel, we have discounted it 50%. The proposal has been updated to reflect this. We're also fine with a post delivery payment, which is also reflected in the proposal.

Great area of focus - that is fundamental to us all pushing towards treasury spending that can objectively impact on-chain metrics.

Without this work, we're all building on sand.

One question

After discussing in the telegram channel, we have discounted it 50%. The proposal has been updated to reflect this. We're also fine with a post delivery payment, which is also reflected in the proposal.

Did you also reduce scope as well? You mentioned in the TG that the initial pricing was based on work done elsewhere - are you making any compromises to make this work? Pricing is a very touchy/feely subject right now - and everyone is trying to find referencing to assess requests.

How do you plan to do a post-delivery payment?

  • You could either do a first referendum with a $0 payment and then a second one with the payment extrinsic included

  • Or you could use a bounty intermediary. This is currently being discussed/worked on after the recent treasury rugs. If you choose to go via this route then you would only need one referenda. Here you would have a transfer extrinsic to the bounty as opposed directly to you. The bounty curators would then pay out your funds as you meet your milestones.

We're open to either option. It sounds like the community is looking for a new model and would like to see more of the second option (use a bounty intermediary).

Did you also reduce scope as well?

No, we will deliver what is in the proposal without compromises.

When the improved process via bounty intermediary has been fully flushed out we're happy to go that route. Until then I think it's best for us to use the known/current process, especially since we are new to the process to begin with.

Our plan is to submit a referendum asking for only 1KSM upfront and the remainder to be paid out upon completion (a second referendum). This should remove any concern over a rug pull.

I started to review the updated document and most of the mentioned updates are not there i.e. there is no mention of deliverables in the proposal. Did you revert to the old version?

Yes, apologies. I somehow reverted after accepting a suggestion. The correct one should say V2 in the title.
