Budget proposal 4-30-2025

In principle, a budget proposal should cover approximately 4 months until the next budget proposal is due. The budget proposal withdraws the total amount needed from the Aragon treasury and makes it available for the multisig.

System: multisig wallet(s) to spend for the budgeted purposes.

Current Budget Allocations

The multisig wallet already has the following budget allocations (excluding airdrops and LP reserves) per April 30, 2025:

  • XP Rewards (Jan-Apr): 8,000,000
  • Unallocated (reserved for Snapshot proposals): 16,800,000

Approved Budget Allocations for Period May-September

The following aspects required budget allocations for the period May-September and were approved and executed per Aragon Budget Proposal:

Part 1

  1. Hiring budget: 10M RETAIL (to fund rewards for various roles) - sent to designated hiring budget multisig wallet.
  2. Ambassador program: 10M RETAIL (a new initiative to attract ambassadors that promoted the DAO among fitting communities) - sent to Main Multisig Wallet.
  3. Discretionary budget: 20M RETAIL (this budget was to make token expenses as they occurred or fund new activities in the next period at the Contributors team's discretion) - sent to Main Multisig Wallet.
  4. XP Rewards for May-Aug: 7M RETAIL - sent to Main Multisig Wallet (after these funds were received, XP rewards distribution started shortly).

In the Genesis Proposal, there was a provision for budgets that a periodic reward would be allocated to the Contributors Team. For this period, some Contributors proposed that no Contributors reward allocation would be requested.

The total budget therefore that was requested from Treasury on Aragon was 47 million $RETAIL.

Part 2

The budget proposal also included a transaction that claimed the first unlocked amount of tokens from the vesting contract, of which Treasury was the beneficiary. This transaction therefore sent the 38.8M unlocked Retail DAO tokens from the vesting contract to the Aragon DAO Treasury on Aragon. This meant that this budget proposal caused a net reduction of the Treasury balance by 8.2M $RETAIL.
