# RRC-48: Rarible Creator Fund Program **Abstract** This proposal establishes the Rarible Creator Fund Program to incentivize high-value creators, brands, and projects to launch NFT drops on the Rarible FUN platform, driving revenue and ecosystem growth. The program requests $100,000 USD in RARI tokens to provide grants of $2,500–$20,000 per creator, brand, or project. Grant applications will be curated by a working group comprising two RARI Foundation delegates, one RARI Foundation team member and Rarible’s VP of Growth. The program proposes a 10% Rarible revenue-sharing model from Rarible FUN drops by funded creators/brands/projects, with proceeds directed to the RARI DAO treasury. The initiative will operate under RARI Foundation and DAO oversight to ensure transparency and alignment with community goals. *** **Motivation** The RARI Foundation and Rarible Protocol aim to foster a decentralized, creator-centric NFT ecosystem. Attracting high-value creators, brands, and projects to Rarible FUN is critical to driving revenue, user engagement, and ecosystem adoption. Currently, there is no structured program to incentivize such creators to launch on Rarible FUN. The Rarible Creator Fund Program addresses this gap by providing financial grants to curated creators, ensuring high-quality NFT drops that align with Rarible’s vision. The 10% Rarible revenue-sharing model will strengthen the RARI DAO treasury, supporting future community initiatives and ensuring long-term sustainability. This program aligns with the RARI Foundation’s mission to empower creators and enhance the Rari ecosystem. *** **Specification** The Rarible Creator Fund Program will operate as follows: * **Funding Allocation**: * Total Request: $110,000 USD in $RARI tokens, disbursed at the prevailing market rate to a multisig wallet administered by the Rari Foundation. This includes a $10,000 USD buffer. * Grants of $2,500–$20,000 will be awarded from the $100,000 USD Rarible Creator Fund Program to 5–30 curated creators, brands, or projects launching NFT drops on Rarible FUN. * **Curation Process**: * A working group will review and select grant applicants, consisting of: * One RARI Foundation team member leading the working group (Anna). * Two RARI Foundation delegates (nominated via the RARI Foundation Forum). * Rarible’s VP of Growth (Jonathan Colon) * Selection criteria will include market influence, creative quality, alignment with Rarible’s brand, and potential to drive revenue on Rarible FUN. Criteria will be published on the RARI Foundation Forum for transparency and community feedback. * **Revenue-Sharing Model**: * 10% of Rarible revenue from Rarible FUN drops by Creator Fund participants will be directed to the RARI DAO treasury. * Revenue will be tracked transparently via Rarible and reported quarterly to the DAO. * **Execution Plan**: * **Milestone 1 (Immediate - Months 1)**: Program Setup and Curation  * Form the working group and finalize selection criteria. * Develop the application process and launch a marketing campaign to attract high-value creators. * Host a community feedback session on the RARI Foundation Forum or Discord Server to refine criteria and process. * **Milestone 2 (Months 1-5)**: Grant Disbursement and Drop Facilitation  * Disburse grants to 5–30 curated creators for NFT drops on Rarible FUN. * Implement the 10% Rarible revenue-sharing model and transfer proceeds to the DAO treasury. * Monitor and report initial drop performance to the DAO. * **Milestone 3 (Months 6-12)**: Program Evaluation and Revenue Sharing  * Evaluate program impact against the defined KPIs (e.g., revenue generated, user engagement, trading activity, ecosystem growth, and drop success). * Publish a final report with metrics and recommendations for future programs. * **Governance and Oversight**: * The working group will manage curation and grant disbursement, subject to RARI Foundation and DAO oversight. * Quarterly reports will detail grant recipients, drop performance, and revenue shared, posted on the RARI Foundation Forum. * Community feedback will be solicited via the Forum and Discord to ensure transparency and accountability. *** **Key Performance Indicators (KPIs):**  The program's success will be measured against the following targets and metrics, evaluated quarterly and in the final report: * Protocol Revenue Generated Through the Creator Fund: Target of at least $150,000 USD in total protocol revenue from funded NFT drops within the first 8 months, with at least 50% derived from the 10% revenue-sharing model to ensure the program achieves a positive return for the RARI DAO treasury. * Revenue Generated per USD$ Spent: Target ROI of at least 1.5x, meaning $1.50 in protocol revenue generated for every $1 USD equivalent spent from the fund (calculated as total revenue from funded drops divided by total grants disbursed). * User Engagement / Trading Activity: Target of at least 50,000 unique users interacting with funded NFT drops (e.g., views, bids, or purchases) and a minimum trading volume of $500,000 USD across all funded drops within the program period, measured via on-chain analytics and Rarible platform data. * Ecosystem Growth: Target of at least 20% increase in active creators on Rarible FUN (measured by new creator accounts launching drops post-program launch) and a 15% growth in total NFT mints on the platform attributable to the program, tracked through ecosystem metrics like user acquisition rates and drop participation.  **Budget Breakdown**: * Total: $110,000 USD in $RARI tokens sent to a multisig wallet administered by the RARI Foundation. * $10,000 USD as a buffer for price fluctuations. * 5-30 Grants ranging from $2,500 to $20,000 USD awarded to high profile creators/brands/projects *** **Rationale** The Rarible Creator Fund Program directly supports the RARI Foundation’s mission to empower creators and drive growth on Rarible FUN. By providing targeted grants, the program will attract high-value creators, increasing platform adoption and revenue. The 10% Rarible revenue-sharing model ensures a sustainable funding mechanism for the RARI DAO treasury, supporting future initiatives. The working group structure, combining Rarible expertise with RARI Foundation oversight, balances efficiency with decentralized governance. The milestone-based approach and transparent reporting align with RARI DAO’s preference for accountability, while community feedback ensures alignment with DAO priorities. *** **Risks and Mitigations** * **Risk**: Insufficient participation from high-value creators. * **Mitigation**: Leverage Rarible’s network and a robust marketing campaign, with clear, community-vetted selection criteria to attract top-tier creators. * **Risk**: Revenue-sharing model underperforms. * **Mitigation**: Monitor drop performance in Milestone 2 and adjust grant sizes or curation criteria if needed, based on early results. * **Risk**: Lack of transparency in creator curation. * **Mitigation**: Publish selection criteria and grant recipient details on the RARI Foundation Forum, with quarterly updates and community feedback.
# RRC-47: Q2 2025 Delegate Incentive Program Report (amendment) Authors: [@jarisjames](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/jarisjames) (Founder of daospace), amendment [@jose\_stablelab](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/jose_stablelab) (StableLab) ## Abstract This proposal requests approval for the disbursement of Q2 2025 rewards under the amended RRC-40 Delegate Incentive Program. The updated framework introduces a fixed-per-activity reward model that simplifies compensation and aligns incentives with the DAO’s current scale and participation goals. Delegates are rewarded for onchain voting, rationale posting, and proposal authorship, each capped at 500 RARI per category, with a maximum total of 1,500 RARI per delegate. This update also includes a revised eligibility model that reflects the DAO’s dual governance setup on Ethereum and Rari Chain, along with a detailed breakdown of qualifying participants and payout calculations. ## Motivation The original Delegate Incentive Program was designed to enhance the quality and consistency of governance participation in RARI DAO. However, as governance activity on Rari Chain evolves, there is a need to adapt the incentive structure to remain aligned with the DAO’s scale, engagement, and financial sustainability. This amendment introduces a clear, capped, and predictable reward model that supports fair compensation without overextending the DAO’s resources. The fixed model encourages broader participation by lowering entry barriers, while still promoting meaningful engagement through voting, rationale posting, and proposal authorship. The proposed structure also reflects community feedback around aligning compensation with governance workload, and aims to balance inclusivity with fiscal responsibility. ## Rationale This revised incentive model supports RARI DAO’s core values of transparency, decentralization, and open participation. By replacing the previous point-based model with fixed-per-activity rewards, the DAO simplifies operations, offers greater predictability to delegates, and ensures proportional compensation without administrative overhead. The cap of 1,500 RARI per delegate per quarter reinforces the vision of scaling the program horizontally rather than vertically, distributing incentives more broadly to attract new contributors rather than concentrating rewards among a few. In contrast to larger DAOs with complex participation metrics (e.g., Arbitrum or MakerDAO), RARI DAO operates with a modest governance cadence and budget. Accordingly, this program is designed to be lightweight and accessible, with low thresholds for participation and a strong emphasis on inclusivity. The 2,000 RARI voting threshold is deliberately modest, opening the door to a wider and more diverse delegate set. Finally, by tying rewards to core activities and maintaining clarity in how rewards are earned, the DAO increases accountability while incentivizing vigilant participation. In the broader context, this helps to mitigate governance risks and aligns the incentives of contributors with the long-term security and decentralization of Rari DAO. ## Specifications ### Eligibility Criteria To qualify for rewards in Q2 2025 under the RRC-40 Delegate Incentive Program, delegates were required to meet the following conditions: * Minimum Voting Participation: Delegates must have at least 60% voting participation requirement set in RRC-40. * Voting Power Requirement (Amended): Delegates must have at least 2,000 veRARI delegated to them on Ethereum Mainnet. However, to account for the dual-governance model introduced with Rari Chain, this requirement has been amended to also include delegates with at least 2,000 RARI voting power on Rari Chain. * Active Delegate Thread: Delegates must maintain an active Delegate Thread on the RARI DAO governance forum, posting rationale for each vote during the quarter. Forum activity was reviewed to confirm compliance. * Updated Delegate Profile in Tally including Delegate name and description, expertise and skills and previous achievements. * Not already paid for delegate services by Foundation. ### Reward structure (amended) The RARI rewards are fixed per activity, and not dependent on a pooled points system. Each delegate’s payout is determined individually based on: * Percentage of votes participated in * Percentage of rationales submitted * Number of proposals authored (capped at one 500 RARI reward per proposal, even with multiple authors) This simple, transparent system ensures predictable, merit-based compensation for delegates while aligning with the DAO’s expectations for active participation. #### 1. Onchain Voting Activity – 500 RARI Delegates are expected to actively vote on all onchain proposals on the RARI DAO via Tally. Participation in 100% of onchain votes during the quarter earns a delegate 500 RARI. If a delegate misses any votes, the reward will be prorated based on the percentage of votes participated in, e.g., voting on 80% of proposals will yield 400 RARI. This component ensures that delegates remain consistently engaged with DAO decision-making. #### 2. Voting Rationales – 500 RARI In addition to voting, delegates must maintain an active Delegate Thread on the RARI governance forum. After each vote, delegates should post a rationale within their thread (or link to a detailed comment left on the proposal’s forum thread) outlining: * How they voted (For / Against / Abstain), * Their reasoning for the vote, * Any concerns or suggested improvements, * Iteration ideas, even if they supported the proposal, * Honest reflections if they lacked clarity on the topic. Writing rationales for 100% of onchain votes in a quarter earns 500 RARI. Partial completion will be rewarded proportionally, e.g., rationales for 60% of votes will yield 300 RARI. We encourage thoughtful, non-generic input. Rationales must reflect independent reasoning and constructive feedback. #### 3. Proposal Authorship – 500 RARI Delegates who take initiative to author proposals will receive additional rewards: * 500 RARI for authoring a proposal that passes the onchain stage. * If multiple co-authors exist, the reward will be split equally among contributors. * Proposals that include built-in author compensation (e.g., grants, working group budgets) are not eligible for this reward. The proposal should be beneficial and aligned with the DAO’s strategic goals and promote growth for the DAO and/or the Rari ecosystem. ## Key Terms * veRARI: Voting-escrowed RARI * RRC-40: The passed proposal establishing the Delegate Incentive Program * Rationale: Delegate explanation of vote posted on the forum * Point System: Scoring method that determines payouts ## Steps to Implement * Publish the Q2 report and proposal to the forum * 7-day review period for community feedback * Submit proposal to Tally for DAO vote * Upon passing, disburse RARI to eligible wallets ## Overall Cost * Q2 Delegate Rewards Pool: 8,214 RARI * Admin Fee (daospace): $1,500 in RARI #### TOTAL COST: ~9,750 RARI \============================================================ ### Full Report & Payout Breakdown Delegate: [@Jaf](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/jaf) Wallet: 0xca85c622d4c61047f96e352cb919695486a193e6 Proposals Voted: 7 (100%) Rationales: 7 (100%) Proposal Author: 1 (Full authorship) Total Rari: 1,500 \============================================================ Delegate: [@jarisjames](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/jarisjames) Wallet: 0xb04e6891e584f2884ad2ee90b6545ba44f843c4a Proposals Voted: 7 (100%) Rationales: 7 (100%) Proposal Author: 0 Payout: 1,000 RARI \============================================================ Delegate: [@bitblondy](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/bitblondy) Wallet: 0x4d32d90d6535bd4e7eabaa27ee72932cb214bbfa Proposals Voted: 7 (100%) Rationales: 7 (100%) Proposal Author: 0 Payout: 1,000 RARI \============================================================ Delegate: [@Firefly808](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/firefly808) Wallet: 0xbe3f82034778fbf474060f7d4a032f592559ab4d Proposals Voted: 7 (100%) Rationales: 7 (100%) Proposal Author: 0 Payout: 1,000 RARI \============================================================ Delegate: [@forexus](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/forexus) Wallet: 0xd8936e602e38dfee5d6466865068b94b1943debf Proposals Voted: 7 (100%) Rationales: 7 (100%) Proposal Author: 0 Payout: 1,000 RARI \============================================================ Delegate: [@PGov](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/pgov) Wallet: 0x3fb19771947072629c8eee7995a2ef23b72d4c8a Proposals Voted: 7 (100%) Rationales: 7 (100%) Proposal Author: 0 Payout: 1,000 RARI \============================================================ Delegate: [@Sixty](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/sixty) Wallet: 0xc2971fe806ce4438da09e21fc7be7fb121cf7e13 Proposals Voted: 7 (100%) Rationales: 7 (100%) Proposal Author: 0 Payout: 1,000 RARI \============================================================ Delegate: [@coffee-crusher](https://forum.rari.foundation/u/coffee-crusher) Wallet: 0x6a39677F216D8Ea21BE5F95798Cd23d0c454E818 Proposals Voted: 5 (71%) Rationales: 5 (71%) Proposal Author: 0 Payout: 714 RARI \============================================================ Admin Fee: 1,500 USD in RARI (500 USD/Month) Daospace wallet: 0xd3EDA7aB6Ed6a1836EAB644D86E7f76ABAd75172
# [RRC-43] Rari Staking Incentives Program ## **Abstract:** Following the approval of [RRC-30](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/rari-foundation/proposal/85102068202527969889208024703113668965813715410446115075088330064807449302588), Rari DAO began transitioning the $RARI token and governance to the Arbitrum ecosystem. The community has already approved the implementation of [RARI staking](https://forum.rari.foundation/t/enable-rari-staking/2073) to enhance the governance and security of the RARI protocol. This proposal specifically seeks approval for: 1. Initial funding budget of 60,000 $RARI from the DAO treasury for staking incentives. 2. A twelve-month staking incentives program to be launched on Rari Chain. 3. Continuous tracking and monthly reporting to optimize the program rewards. Implementing these staking incentives together with the already-approved staking mechanism will maximize its impact on the DAO’s governance participation and token value. ## Motivation: The Rari DAO is undergoing a significant transition from the Ethereum mainnet to Rari Chain. This migration is a critical milestone for the DAO’s evolution, aimed at improving governance efficiency, reducing transaction costs, and enhancing the scalability of the protocol. However, the success of this migration depends heavily on user participation and the seamless integration of existing governance mechanisms into the new environment. The current governance model relies on Rari tokens locked in veRari contracts on Ethereum mainnet. For the migration to Rari Chain to be effective, these staked tokens must be unstaked, bridged, and delegated on Rari Chain. Without sufficient incentives, users may hesitate to migrate their tokens - especially early on. While mainnet utility isn’t lost, since tokens can be wrapped and used for governance after the upgrade, incentives will still be key to drive early staking and adoption of the new RARI L2 token standard. Two of Rari DAO’s most important goals are to improve governance participation and increase the utility of the $RARI token, both of which are significantly advanced by the introduction of RARI governance staking, developed by Tally. In this contract, $RARI stakers that delegate their voting power to an eligible delegate will receive staking rewards. Adding staking rewards will further motivate token holders to migrate and contribute to governance, ensuring stronger alignment with the DAO’s overall objectives and enhancing the utility of the $RARI token by providing tangible benefits to participants. ## Rationale: This proposal establishes a fixed-term (twelve-month) incentives program to jumpstart governance participation. To incentivize early bridging and staking, the incentives will be scheduled in three phases (see specification) with diminishing rewards over time plus a one-time bridging Quests for early users. The initial goal is to attract a similar amount of $RARI as currently sits into the ve-contract in Ethereum, ~300,000 $RARI, to the governance staking contract in Rari Chain. The staking mechanism supports both direct voter participation and the option for token holders to delegate their voting power to active community members, creating multiple pathways for governance engagement while still earning rewards. The long-term vision is for staking incentives to be sustainably funded from the DAO’s revenue streams. After this initial period concludes, a new proposal will be required to continue the staking rewards program, ideally transitioning to the self-sustaining model derived from DAO revenue. The progress of the program will be tracked and reported monthly by StableLab. Reports will be posted in the forum for the DAO to discuss, along with recommendations on next steps. KPIs to track include the following (more can be added in the future): * Number of delegated RARI tokens. * Number of wallets staked. * Numbers of delegates receiving delegation. * Unique proposal voters. ## Key Terms: * RARI token: RARI DAO governance token * RARI DAO: body governing the Rarible Protocol and RARI chain * Arbitrum ecosystem: Arbitrum One and RARI chain L3 ## Specification ### Staking Rewards Mechanics: In the governance staking contract, rewards are distributed proportionally to the amount of $RARI staked. We calculated the amount of $RARI to allocate for rewards based on an APR estimation for 300,000 $RARI migrating and delegating to Rari Chain: * Target APR: An attractive yield of 25% (Phase 1), 15% (Phase 2) and 10% (Phase 3) annualized return to attract stakers, balancing the risk of holding $RARI on Rari Chain against typical crypto yields (e.g., 3-3.3% for ETH staking, 4.5% for Sky’s USDS). ### Reward Calculations: As each Phase lasts 4 months, to estimate the amount of Rari to yield each target APR we must calculate: $RARI incentives = 300,000 (Staked $RARI estimation) \* Target APR \* 4 months (Phase duration) / 12 months (annualized returns) Therefore, * Phase 1 (months 1-4): 25,000 $RARI. * Phase 2 (months 5-8): 15,000 $RARI. * Phase 3 (months 9-12): 10,000 $RARI. Additionally, 10,000 $RARI will be allocated to Quests for bridging into Rari Chain to kickstart Phase 1. ## Steps to Implement Upon successful approval of this proposal on Tally, 60,000 $RARI will be sent to the Foundation’s SAFE on mainnet (**0x2a83d2891Ef3df6967E3C2e9b69cCc7aD029736B)**. Then, Rari Foundation will bridge the funds to Rari Chain and deposit them into the DAO Treasury at **0x83CBaF64b94D1eDfeDd468b23234DeCf2AecDD8b.** The Governance Staking contract will then be given permission to allocate funds as staking rewards based on the outlined reward structure, through a DAO-approved proposal on RARI Chain (more details on governance staking [here 1](https://docs.tally.xyz/tally-features/staking/stgov-lst)). ## Overall Cost: Overall costs: 60,000 $RARI * 10,000 $RARI for Superboard bridging Quests. * 50,000 $RARI for staking rewards.
" # RRC-40: RARI DAO Delegate Incentive Program **Authors:** @sixty, @bitblondy, @cr1st0f # Abstract The RARI DAO Delegate Incentive Program intends to enhance governance participation within RARI DAO by rewarding active and engaged delegates. By aligning incentives with governance activity, the program aims to enhance decision-making, improve voter turnout, and strengthen the DAO’s long-term sustainability and security. The goal is to create a more resilient, secure, and effective governance framework that empowers the RARI ecosystem and drives the DAO’s continued growth. # Motivation Effective governance is vital to RARI DAO’s success. Currently, delegates who review proposals, participate in discussions, and vote on key decisions receive no direct rewards, risking disengagement, voter apathy, and over-reliance on a few committed individuals. To address this, we propose a Delegate Incentive Program that offers compensation and enhanced voting power. This program aims to encourage long-term participation, attract high-quality contributors, and align delegate interests with the RARI ecosystem. Low participation rates and a small pool of active delegates reduce proactive contributions. An improved incentive program could attract experienced community members and skilled governance professionals, leading to better decision-making. While the Delegate Launchpad has drawn in new delegates, it does not reward ongoing engagement and forces active delegates to reapply for foundation delegations. Introducing continuous rewards will help build voting power and ensure long-term stability for the DAO. Compensating delegates aligns with [best practices seen in other DAOs](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1tIbDpeqpCmDHtAL40G15AzjpvSIc_FpgO8L8Z2DQUUU/edit) (examples [1](https://gov.uniswap.org/t/uniswap-delegate-reward-initiative-cycle-3/25241), [2](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/proposal-delegate-incentive-program-dip/26496), [3](https://forum.scroll.io/t/delegate-incentive-programs-daostar-research/470)), and it is generally accepted that delegate incentives drive stronger engagement, higher proposal quality, and a more decentralized decision-making process. By implementing this program, RARI DAO can build a more robust governance system, ensuring that those responsible for guiding the protocol’s future are both empowered and supported. # Rationale The RARI DAO Delegate Incentive Program directly aligns with the DAO’s mission to foster decentralized, transparent, and high-quality governance that drives sustainable ecosystem growth. # Specification ## Budget ($31,500 per quarter) * **$10,000** (in RARI) monthly, split amongst all the active delegates. RARI price will be the average price at the daily close for the month in question. * **$500** (in RARI) monthly for administration. RARI price will be the average price at the daily close for the month in question. ## Frequency of Payment ### Quarterly * An onchain proposal to reward delegates for their contributions will be shared at the end of each quarter. * The reward system will be retroactive, starting January 1st, 2025, and will initially continue for 1 year when it will be reassessed. ## Eligibility Criteria * At least 2,000 veRARI delegated ([38 delegates as of now](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/rari-foundation/proposals)) * 60% 90-day voting participation rate * Active Delegate Thread * Not already paid for delegate services by Foundation ## What Delegate Activities should be rewarded Rewards will be distributed based on 3 criteria. We have chosen these criteria as we believe they fall in line with the expectations of any delegate in a DAO. For simplicity's sake, we have chosen to go with only 3 for now, intending to expand them if the community/delegates see fit. ### 1. Onchain voting activity - 100 Points Onchain voting refers to voting activity on onchain proposals on the [RARI DAO Tally](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/rari-foundation/proposals). Participation in all votes for that quarter will result in a delegate receiving 100 Points. 100 Points is the maximum, and if a delegate misses certain votes, their points will be equivalent to the % of votes that they voted in. Deducting points for missing votes will create an additional incentive for delegates to participate in every onchain vote, bolstering the strength of our governance process. ### 2. Active delegate thread - 100 Points Each delegate should maintain an active delegate thread on the [RARI DAO governance forum](https://forum.rari.foundation/latest). A delegate thread is a post on the governance forum where a delegate introduces themselves and explains their governance philosophy and other relevant details about the delegate. The [DAOplomats delegate thread](https://forum.rari.foundation/t/daoplomats-delegate-thread/2157) here is a perfect example. Delegates should reply within their delegate thread after each vote with reasoning as to why they voted the way they did. If the delegate previously left a ‘comment’ on the proposal’s forum post, they can reference this comment as their voting rationale in their thread. A delegate’s comment on their rationale thread (or linked comment left on the proposal) should include: * Clearly state if they voted **For**, **Against**, or **Abstained** * Reasons for **Support** / **Opposition** of the proposal * If they voted Against or had concerns, **suggest improvements**. * If they voted For but see areas for iteration, **mention them**. We encourage delegates to be genuine in their comments, including whether they might not have properly understood the proposal so we can work on adding more avenues for collective learning. Also, we encourage delegates to give well-thought-out responses and feedback rather than submitting *generic AI responses*. Complaints and/or concerns should also be presented with the aim of providing *constructive criticism*, such as solutions or alternatives for your complaint/concerns. Points for maintaining an active delegate thread will be distributed only for voting rationale on onchain votes (Tally). Therefore, these points will be calculated as a percentage of total onchain votes for that quarter. Delegate threads should be completed before the end of the quarter. ### 3. Proposal Creation - 150 Points / 200 Points If a proposal is passed, a single author will receive 150 additional points. If there are multiple authors, they will split 200 points amongst themselves. Proposals that already intend rewards toward the authors (e.g., receiving a grant or setting up a paid working group) shall not be additionally rewarded. ## Reward Distribution Methodology At the end of the quarter, all points earned by delegates will be tallied up and summed together. This means all the points delegates earned will be added together. After adding all the points, we will divide the total points by the fixed reward pool for the quarter ($30,000). This will allow us to determine the price per point. Once the price per point is determined for the quarter, rewards will be distributed in proportion to the points a delegate has earned for the quarter. ## How should we keep track of rewarded activities? ### Administration **daospace** will handle the administration of the delegate incentive program by combining onchain and offchain data tracking to provide a clearer picture of delegate activity each month, with the aim to automate the process and provide real-time tracking. ### Review Period DAO members will review the quarterly report for any inconsistencies and inaccuracies before an onchain proposal is posted; this is to ensure that delegate payouts are accurate and fair. ### KPIs It is important to track KPIs for any incentive program. As there are two main components to the incentivization strategy, voting and passed proposals, it is proposed that these make up the KPIs for tracking the success of this proposal. The KPIs to be tracked and reported on are, therefore: * Number of active voters. * Average vote participation rate for active voters. * Average $RARI voting on proposals. * Number of proposals passed per quarter. # Proposed Timeline **1st January - 31st March, 2025** - Delegate Rewards period Q1 **First Week of April, 2025** - Delegate Rewards Report Q1 is shared on the forum for feedback **Second Week of April, 2025** - Delegate Rewards Proposal Q1 is posted on Tally # Overall Cost The cost of this proposal is **$31,500 per quarter** with the proposed programme running for one year at a total cost to the DAO of **$126,000 per year**. The dollar conversion to RARI will use the average price over any time period being considered.
# RRC-39: Multichain Primary & Secondary Protocol Fees [<img height="345" width="690" alt="image" src="https://forum.rari.foundation/uploads/default/optimized/1X/acf3ffc692f04807d32c87b1b64e09ba1539f29a_2_690x345.jpeg" />image3000×1500 1 MB](https://forum.rari.foundation/uploads/default/original/1X/acf3ffc692f04807d32c87b1b64e09ba1539f29a.jpeg "image") Proposal author: StableLab&#x20; Review and feedback: Rari Foundation ## Abstract This proposal seeks to grant the Rari Foundation a mandate to collaborate with Rarible on implementing multichain protocol fee collection and designing a primary protocol fee structure for NFT mints. By doing so, the DAO aims to capture missed revenue from secondary trading across all supported chains and introduce a new, DAO-managed revenue stream for primary sales (mints). *** ## Motivation After the implementation of [\[RRC-28\]](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/rari-foundation/proposal/64443561092723928501818567121519051108693422626070463342810224372241233243885), Rari DAO collects secondary fees in Ethereum mainnet. However, the existing Rari DAO setup does not yet have robust multichain fee collection mechanisms in place, causing the DAO to forgo potential revenue from additional secondary trading. Additionally, there is currently no DAO-controlled protocol fee for primary NFT mints, leaving an opportunity for Rarible (or other marketplaces) to collect fees unilaterally. Enabling multichain fee collection and introducing a primary fee will strengthen the DAO’s treasury and align Rari DAO’s longer-term mission of protocol sustainability and growth with the performance Rarible, the biggest app built on top of Rari Protocol. To add some numbers, in 2024, Rarible primary sales totaled ~ $230,000, while secondary sales totaled north of $9.7M during the same period ([Rarible Dune dashboard 1](https://dune.com/sealaunch/rarible-ethereum-polygon)), of which only ~34% happened in Ethereum mainnet. Therefore, ~66% of secondary volume happened in sidechains and L2s.

(Bottom) Distribution of volume by chain in the last 180 days.* *** ## Rationale **New sources of revenue**: Based on 2024 primary and secondary sales data, and with an estimate of a 0.5% protocol fee on both sales categories (as it is currently applied in Ethereum secondary sales), the DAO could be earning an additional ~$33,000 over 2025 if NFT volume projections remain constant. **Alignment with Rari DAO’s Mission**: The DAO’s primary objective is to ensure sustainable growth and revenue streams that support ongoing development, innovation, and community engagement in the Rari ecosystem. Expanding fee collection to multiple chains and implementing a primary mint fee directly address this objective. **Incentives alignment with Rarible**: By leveraging Rarible’s existing infrastructure and user base, the DAO can quickly tap into new revenue. This implies that DAO-led programs aimed at enhancing activity at Rarible will have a direct impact on DAO revenue, creating a synergy where both entities, Rarible and the Rari DAO, benefit from each other’s success. *** ## Key Terms **Multichain Governance**: A governance model or system that spans multiple blockchain networks, enabling consistent decision-making across chains. **Primary Protocol Fee**: A fee applied when an NFT is minted (as opposed to a secondary fee that applies when the NFT is traded on the secondary market). **Secondary Protocol Fee**: A fee taken from NFT sales after the initial mint (e.g., resales on marketplaces). *** ## Specifications **Multichain Fee Collection** The Foundation will coordinate with Rarible to enable fee collection on all chains currently supported by Rarible. Fees will be routed to the DAO treasury or a designated DAO-controlled wallet. **Primary Protocol Fee Design** The Foundation will work with Rarible to negotiate and configure a new primary protocol fee. This fee will replace or supplement the existing “$2 minting fee” that currently goes solely to Rarible, ensuring the DAO captures a share of that revenue. **Governance and Compliance** Fees and fee structures will be implemented in accordance with relevant regulations and Rari DAO’s existing governance frameworks. Any changes or adjustments to fee percentages will require the DAO’s governance approval. *** ## Steps to Implement 1. DAO Approval of Foundation Mandate (This Proposal): Secure approval from Rari DAO token holders to empower the Foundation to proceed with negotiations and technical integration. 2. Technical & Legal Preparations: The Foundation will collaborate with Rarible’s technical team to establish robust smart contract changes for fee collection on each supported chain. It will also conduct any necessary legal review or documentation required for cross-chain fee collection. 3. Fee Structure Negotiations: The Foundation will propose a new primary protocol fee structure in collaboration with Rarible. The Foundation will bring proposed fee splits and structure back to the DAO for final approval. 4. Development & Deployment: Rarible, in collaboration with the Foundation, develops and implements updated smart contracts (or configurations) to collect both secondary and newly introduced primary fees. The Foundation oversees and tests the deployment process to ensure correct operation. 5. Monitoring & Optimization: Once implemented, the Foundation and Rarible will monitor fee generation, user feedback, and overall market impact. The DAO may introduce adjustments or optimizations via subsequent governance proposals if needed. *** ## Tentative timeline Week 2-4: * Rari Foundation coordinates with Rarible to scope out technical requirements. * Initial design for multichain fee collection and primary fee structure completed. * Legal documentation (if necessary) is drafted. Week 6-8: * Smart contract updates and testing. * Deployment to test environments, community feedback collected. Week 8-10: * Final deployment to all supported chains (Ethereum, Polygon, etc.). * Ongoing monitoring and optimization. *** ## Overall Cost Estimated to be minimal compared to projected revenue gains. A final cost outline will be provided once the Foundation and Rarible agree on the technical scope.
