Thanks everyone for the discussion.
As background: following points raised by the community during the SIP-14 discussion, the Insider Participation wording was updated to provide clearer expectations around insider participation and disclosures.
Appreciate Giveth addressing this point openly in detail in their submission thread. There are reasonable arguments and concerns being raised from different perspectives here.
Applying a purely binary approach to eligibility may not fully reflect the context and the nature of Giveth as a donation platform, where participating team members may also be donating real funds to public goods projects through the platform, rather than simply routing activity back to themselves. That makes the question of intent less straightforward, especially as SIP-14 refers to activity conducted “for the purpose of earning campaign rewards”.
Ultimately this is something for the DAO and voters to weigh during the campaign selection vote.
Appreciate the discussion, which should help how insider participation proposal wording can be improved in future seasons.
