Routing your request to work with GitcoinDAO 🔀

From time to time, people slide into my DMs asking if they can do some work with GitcoinDAO.

These requests vary in nature, sometimes people want to sponsor a matching round. Sometimes people want Gitcoin to join a twitter spaces. Sometimes they are partnership requests.

But in almost all cases, I cannot field the requests because I’ve disaffiliated from DAO leadership.

So I am creating this gov post to help route these requests. My goal for this post is to (1) get these requests out of my DMs + get them to where DAO members can see them (2) route them to who can actually help.

Here is an easy 3 step process to route your request:

1. Verify that this request matches the essential intents of Gitcion

Everything at Gitcoin revolves around this purpose (100 year vision) and essential intents (12-18 months vision).

From this post:

If your inquiry does not match this purpose/essential intent it is not likely to be actioned.

3. Engage in the DAO

If you engage in the governance forum https://gov.gitcoin.co or the discord https://gitcoin.co/discord that is a great way to get to know Gitcoin. The DAO also hosts weekly calls which you can find on the calendar at https://gitcoindao.com/ Requests from engaged community members are usually prioritized over “drive by BD” engagements.
