Summary

Fio Adoption and Sustainable Growth Proposal

The steering committee is reviewing new worker proposals. Sarn, a Fio block producer, is pitching a proposal from One of One Labs focused on increasing Fio adoption and sustainable growth. They aim to offer a more cost-effective model prioritizing fee-based payments and aligning incentives, believing the current RevOps proposal is underperforming. Sarn is presenting details to the committee for their consideration and vote.

FIO Foundation Marketing Strategy Proposal

Sarn presented a worker proposal to improve the marketing and business development strategy for the FIO Foundation. The proposal aims to increase community engagement, drive measurable adoption, and boost brand recognition. Sarn highlighted the low engagement on social media platforms and the need for a fresh perspective. The proposal includes a new marketing strategy, community management, and business development. The team plans to outsource certain tasks and focus on sustainability. The proposal also includes a budget breakdown, with compensation in FIO tokens. The team is open to adjusting the budget to include locked FIO tokens. The proposal was well-received, with no major concerns raised.

FIO Adoption and Partner Strategies

The summary discusses two worker proposals presented by Justin, Sarn, and their team, and Adam. Justin and Sarn's proposal focuses on marketing, partnerships, and leveraging existing relationships to grow FIO adoption. They emphasize quality over quantity in partnerships and plan to utilize the FIO dashboard to increase organic growth. Adam's proposal covers integrations, development, and technical support for partners. The steering committee members ask questions about partner onboarding, conflict of interest in voting, and strategies for attracting new partnerships. The presenters address these concerns and highlight their experience in the crypto space.

FIO Blockchain Development Proposal

Adam presents a proposal for blockchain development, focusing on creating functional and non-functional token assets on the FIO blockchain. The proposal includes a new worker role to reach out to academic institutions in Colorado with blockchain programs. The budget for this proposal is $24,000 over three months, with half of the funding coming from existing proposals. Adam also discusses the benefits of implementing FIO assets, including increased platform utilization, domain registrations, and TPID exposure. He outlines a timeline for development, testing, and deployment of the FIO assets functionality, with marketing discussions planned for July.

Integration Support and Revos Proposals

Adam discussed the future of integration support and the potential for using funds from Wayne's proposal to fund the development of Pheo assets and outreach to new Kols. He also presented two proposals for the Revos life support, one with a 90% budget cut and an alternative budget with a lower cost. Pawel sought clarification on the scope of the proposals, particularly the Revos life support, and the differences between it and Wayne's proposal.

FIO Platform Worker Proposals Discussion

The meeting discusses several worker proposals related to marketing, development, and support for the FIO platform. Pawel clarifies that only fully submitted proposals can be considered, not potential future modifications. Adam explains his proposal includes conditional payments based on token price and delivery of FIO assets. The group debates the merits of building new features versus attracting users, with Pawel expressing skepticism about user adoption. Emily seeks clarification on the marketing aspects of Adam's proposal. Pawel summarizes that there are three overlapping proposals for marketing and operations, suggesting steering committee members should vote for one of those, plus a separate proposal for FIO assets development.

Social Media Engagement Strategy

Wayne presented a rebuttal to Sarn's proposal, arguing that their current social media engagement and token price are not anomalies, as engagement is down across all projects. He proposed a new strategy with a smaller team, focusing on growing social media engagement, closing big partnerships, and attending major events. He also mentioned the importance of top-tier partners and the need for a grant structure. Sarn disagreed, stating that Theo's reach and engagement are unique and that the current strategy is not working.

Steering Committee Considers Delaying Vote

The steering committee discusses whether to delay voting on existing marketing-related worker proposals to allow for a new proposal from Micah. Pawel explains the usual governance process and timeline for worker proposals. The committee members have differing opinions on whether and how long to delay. They ultimately decide to hold a vote on delaying until Friday to hear Micah's pitch, with the current tally at 2-2 and GP's vote needed as a tiebreaker. Micah also shares his thoughts on the value of the existing partnerships team and concerns about bringing in someone new for a short period.
