Kenric@Photrek Proposals (26)
Design & Sim of Voting Influence
<p>Blockchain DAOs, including Catalyst, are governed by one coin - one vote policy which is susceptible to oligarchic control.</p>
Cardano Risk Profile Audit
<p>Cardano stakepool operators face a variety of cybersecurity risks that they have not adequately prepared to defend against.</p>
Challenge: Prototype Diversified Voting Method
<p>Can we implement a prototype demonstration of diversified voting and flexible funding for one challenge fund?</p>
AdaQuad - Crowdfunding Platform
Solution: Design a voting and funding method for Cardano Catalyst and other DOAs in the Cardano ecosystem.
wadaDAO
Solution: Fuse known organizational standards into DAO models. Design distributed treasury system. Confirm quadratic voting and other voting models.
Forecasting Cardano Native Tokens
Solution: We propose the development of an automated valuation method for native tokens based on tools of machine intelligence for complex systems.
OpenSource Quadratic Voting Funding
Solution: Bring GitCoin to Cardano with quadratic voting and funding to amplify trust and opportunities to build the future of open-source Cardano.
PRISM DIDs for Catalyst CA Process
Solution: Decentralised identity can improve the Catalyst CA process. Using Atala PRISM in Catalyst supports broader adoption of Cardano technology.
Improving Integrity of CA Processes
Solution: Identify the community's best improvements on reputation and ranking and integrate these into the parallel effort on CA digital identity.
Community Governance Oversight
Solution: Provide community oversight of Catalyst governance processes.
Risk Monitor for SPOs
Solution: A Risk Monitor tool suite empowers SPOs with decentralized means to detect whether network-wide block production aligns with expectations from protocol so that reward distribution remains honest.
Consenz: Community Consensus Measurement & Optimization Quick Pitch
Solution: Consenz is Agreement Building Platform. It uses the "consensus-meter" - an algorithm for consensus calculation. We wish to open-source its code to invite researchers and developers to optimize it.
Governance Hackathon: Cardano DRep Teams
Solution: A hackathon platform for development of governance capabilities. Utilize plural voting with payment & rewards to facilitate the community in deciding the winning awards. Run a DRep team hackathon.
Alternative Catalyst voting schemes with new crypto protocols by IOG Research, Photrek, and the Catalyst Team
Solution: A set of selected voting schemes for Catalyst, a research paper on their properties, comparison and recommendations for selection, a research paper on supporting cryptographic protocols for voting
AI Assistant for Governance: Empowering Team-Based dReps
Solution: Photrek will develop an AI Assistant that empowers Team-Based dReps, analyzes proposals, assesses their impact across Cardano, and guides decisions aligned with the community & the constitution.
dRepWatch - A Sustainable Platform for Informed Voters
Solution: Leverage existing dRepWatch, and bring it up a notch to create a user friendly interface that offers transparency and facilitates communication between voters and dReps on various governance issues.
Superintelligence for Cardano: Groundbreaking Integration for AI-Powered dApps
Cardano needs more transaction volume to sustain its ecosystem. The race to AGI presents an opportunity to make the resources of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (ASI) accessible to Cardano.
Wolfram Voting Power Index
Voting power is a misunderstood metric. Most weighted voting systems have a large degree of centralization without constituents knowing it. There is not a clear quantified measurement.

Our work on the Study Buddy curriculum is documented at the website https://sites.google.com/view/study-buddy-catalyst-pa-projec/background?authuser=0
Photrek originally contracted with Modig Development for the development of the Study Buddy curriculum. Michael Cenkner, who is leading the effort, has decided to complete the work as an individual rather than through Modig. As such, the contract with Modig was ended and a new agreement was completed with Cenkner.
The IICAP project launch has been successful. Paul Erikson and Michael Cenkner of Modig Development have joined the team to develop a process for demonstrating core competency in the PA/vPA processes. Snapbrillia will provide their quadratic voting tools to facilitate feedback from the PA/vPA community regarding each proposed competency. Snapbrillia's bounty system will be used to reward community members who participate in the review.
Thank you to the Catalyst Community for supporting Photrek's initiative to improve the CA processes. We look forward to working with the community.
