As Rim has already said, we selected new degens from spreadsheet, to which anyone could send their resume.
All decisions were taken by the consuls collectively. I personally selected several people specifically for my groups, Reddit, BTT, YT based on their past experience.
Unfortunately, I’m not good at moderation issues, I think this is a question for project management. I’m just focused on the Degens ecosystem. But I think we will raise this issue in our further discussions that we will have about the restructuring of Degens.
At the moment, we want to create a professional community where everyone can generate first-class content, have their own KPIs and other indicators.
I think we should work through November in a new composition and, based on statistics and indicators, make a decision on hiring new specialists. I say specialists because the entry threshold to Degen 2.0 will be high. I am in favor of our community being based on the most powerful minds and professionals, so we will also discuss the possibility of accepting new degens.
Actually, not anyone, because announcement wasn’t published on official Near protocol media resources.
Some of decision couldn’t be taken fairly, and @p0k ‘s friends it’s an example of it (he is a council). Conflict of interests was present during all pasts hiring events.
By the way , P0k is OWS team member.
I hope to see best in class professionals in new army who will work for Army only (no other guilds and TG groups).
Can you please Explain ,what Kuenshahi have Contributed to Near Ecosystem, i can see only very less Contributions are made. Her Twitter Account only says 67 Followers. i dont know what value that can be added for past months as Degen. @Dacha Need your Thoughts @Grace Kindly Check up this !
Would you still be saying the same if NEAR’s price wasn’t $10? No, because you said the exact opposite thing in August payout report when NEAR’s price was $5. It’s called volatility. Check my other reply above for more info.
So aren’t you contradicting yourself right now? The price was low three months back, therefore we received lower salary in USD. The price is higher right now, therefore we received higher salary in USD.
If let’s say that the price goes down to $2 next month, will you again propose to increase our salary?
We our paid in NEAR which will be volatile in prices due to it being a cryptocurrency.
I understand what you mean, but if you count all the hours I spend creating content and managing in degens, you get about the same amount that is currently credited to us.
20 hours a week is the minimum that degen spends on average. But in Degens 2.0, only those who spend much more time in this direction will remain, and we will also be much stricter about the quality of the created content. I understand that the current state of affairs causes you some concern, but we discussed many things with @Grace and came to the conclusion that we need a restructuring.
Let’s do a restructuring and see how it works for us in November. Moreover, if you want to try yourself as a degen, I can offer to become part of my team for a few days to understand how much work each member of degen 2.0 does. You will need Twitter, a good account on Reddit (2000+ karma, I’m even ready to rent my account) and active daily participation in the direction of YouTube Targeting.
I would be happy to work shoulder to shoulder with you and if we have a place in the ranks of Degens 2.0, I am ready to gladly consider your candidacy as a member of the core team for my teams, as well as the core Twitter team.
I’m used to focusing on metrics that I see in front of me. My task is to analytically solve the problems. In the new direction of Degens 2.0, I will regulate the activities of each member even more strictly and consider the real returns and benefits for the Degens 2.0 ecosystem.
My responsibility at the moment is only Reddit, YT, BTT, as you can see, everything in this segment is under strict control and we are trying to improve metrics and indicators every month.
I think I can invite you to a test period in Degens 2.0 on the 20th of November, when our new team will start working in full force
I sincerely believe that every Degen does a huge amount of work, and especially those who will be among the top 25.
It has not been fully approved yet, there are minor differences, I think we will not hide who will be on the list. As soon as our list is ready, we will publish a document with the details of Degens 2.0
But we’re in the crypto space doing work for NEAR and by NEAR. So it makes more sense (and we expect) that we’re paid in $NEAR.
Also, none of the Degens ever proposed to increase our salary when the token price was low (that was you, even when you’re not in the group) and none of us will do that in the future.
Also you keep bringing up the term “social media specialist” and I’m not so sure you know what it means because if you did you’d realise that not all of us do only that. Many of us also take tonnes of other initiatives (not to mention moderating). And also most (actually all) of the times, a social media specialist is hired for just one single platform yet most of us do our work on several platforms.
No doubt we appreciate your 10th dentist approach, but with all the facts laid out by us and the transparency we showcase it’s frankly getting a little aggravating and irksome that we have to answer to your exact same questions and doubts every month cause if we don’t you start shitposting and start calling people out personally on the forum.
