GnosisDAO Governance Summary ~ 14 April 2023

This week the big news from the Gnosis ecosystem was the Safe teams announcement of gasless transactions for all Gnosis Chain users starting April 13th, 2023 and lasting for 30 days. In the 24 hours since the announcements was made, 500 Safes have been created with over 1,000 transactions relayed! The Safe team is leading web3 in account abstraction innovation with their Safe{Core} AA stack, a battle-tested and complete AA developer stack. Check out their twitter thread below to learn more about the campaign! 👇👇👇

One quick note regarding the GnosisDAO governance process. A number of spam proposals have been published recently on the GnosisDAO Snapshot account. Should a community member author a proposal on Snapshot without first posting on the Gnosis Forum and following the necessary phases of the GnosisDAO's governance process, a Snapshot vote is rendered invalid.

Let's jump into the GnosisDAO governance summary!

GIP-82: Should GnosisDAO co-fund a community owned forest / land art project (terra0)? Voting Closes Apr 21, 2023

This proposal seeks Gnosis DAO to become a sponsor and partner that would partially fund terra0 to support the development of a novel large-scale art project in Germany that focuses on community-land stewardship managed by a DAO. The project will expand the use cases of the Gnosis ecosystem by using Gnosis infrastructure (Safe, Gnosis Chain, Zodiac) to manage and restore a forest over an indefinite time period. The artistic development is being supported by Light Art Space (LAS), a German art foundation focused on art, science, and technology and will culminate in a large-scale exhibition in Berlin (3-6 months), allowing for a broad, diverse, and non-native audience to be exposed to Gnosis and Web3.

GIP-80: Should GnosisDAO fund p2panda's off-chain solution for secure group encryption? Voting Closed on Apr 7, 2023 - 🔴 Failed Quorum

Hello Gnosis community!

We would like to realize a prototype for a decentralized, off-chain, encrypted group chat where Ethereum addresses can serve as the receiver's identifiers.

To achieve this we want to improve and build on top of the Messaging Layer Security Protocol (MLS) and the p2panda protocol. This technology fills a need in the Gnosis community for a generic and encrypted off-chain data layer.

This technology fills a need in the Gnosis community for a generic and encrypted off-chain data layer. The group chat will also be a proof of concept and template for future applications serving the Gnosis community using the same infrastructure.

GIP-83: Should GnosisDAO fund decentralized alternatives of Gnosis Chain pruned and archival RPC endpoints from Pocket Network Voting Closed on Apr 3, 2023 - 🔴 Failed Quorum

Pocket Network is a decentralized, middleware protocol focused on the RPC layer. Its goal is to provide blockchain application developers with a privacy-preserving, multi-chain gateway on top of the Pocket Network protocol that allows dapp developers to mint reliable, fast RPC endpoints for the 40+ blockchain networks supported, including both Gnosis Chain pruned and Gnosis Chain archival.
