Proposal: DAO Community Coach​

​

Introduction: Laying the Foundation for Unity and Progress​

PIVX has consistently demonstrated resilienceadaptabilityand innovationthriving in the decentralized space despite challenges. Howeverlike any complex and decentralized organizationthe lack of a shared direction and cohesive structure can impede progress and morale.

This proposal seeks to address these challenges by uniting the PIVX community around a common goalfostering a structure that supports collaboration and efficiencyand empowering contributors to realize their potential within an environment of safety and growth.

​

Priority 1: Establishing a Common Goal​

Objective: Define a clearactionableand inspiring goal that aligns the efforts of the PIVX communityensuring that all initiatives contribute towards a unified overarching goal.

Steps to Achieve the Common Goal:

1. Community Consultation: Discussions to gather feedback from key community members on the proposed vision and mission statements.
2. Finalize the Goal: Refine the statements based on feedback and officially adopt them as a new common goalthe guiding star for the DAO.
3. Set Measurable Milestones: Work with the community to define clear milestones for the Hubs and Teamsthat align with the overarching goalensuring progress can be tracked and celebrated.

​

Priority 2: Restructuring the DAO for Efficiency and Collaboration​

Objective: Establish a structure of Hubs and Teams to improve workflowfoster collaborationand align efforts with the common goal. Ensure that mental health and respectful communication are integral parts of the restructuring process and the overall culturemaintaining PIVX's reputation as a friendly and welcoming community. A friendly and welcoming work environment not only keeps community members close and motivatedbut also attracts new talents.


Proposed Structure:

• Hubs: Core functional groups that encompass related activities. Example Hubs:
  • Community Hub: Socialsoutreachinternational ambassadors.
  • Development Hub: Corenon-corewebsiteand PIVXLabs.
  • Marketing & Design Hub: Brandingcampaignsand visual assets.
• Teams: Subgroups within Hubs focused on specific projects or tasks.

Steps to Implement the New Structure:

1. Assessment: Review current departments and contributors’ roles to identify overlaps and gaps.
2. Redesign: Propose a new Hub and Team framework based on the assessment and community feedback.
3. Transition Plan: Develop a phased approach to implement the new structure and role assignments.
4. Hub Cuddles: Introduce monthly meetings within each Hub to foster collaborationbuild cohesionshare progressand address challenges.
5. Community Pods: Create cross-Hub groups to address broader issuesfoster communication across Hubsand increase creativity and collaborationensuring alignment with the common goal.

​

Role of the DAO Community Coach​

As the DAO Community Coachmy role will be to act as the glue that holds the community togetherfostering cohesion and ensuring that all members feel supported and aligned. The role will blend seamlessly into the community and focus on:

• Facilitate Consensus: Guide the community through discussions to finalize and adopt the common goal.
• Foster Alignment: Ensure that all community membersinitiativesproposals and voting align with the common goal.
• Promote Workplace Well-Being: Prioritize mental healthemotional safetyand respectful communication to nurture a friendly and welcoming community.
• Nurture Collaboration: Organize Hub Cuddles and Community Pods to enhance communicationincrease cohesionand strengthen teamwork.

​

Proposed Implementation Timeline​

Month 1:

• Host community consultations to finalize the common goalincluding defining the community's 'Big Hairy Audacious Goal' (BHAG).
  My BHAG suggestion: To position PIVX as one of the top three privacy coins by market capitalization by fostering a boldcreativeand friendly community dedicated to advancing robust privacy technologydelivering unparalleled user-friendlinessand striving for increased decentralization.
• Initiate discussions on restructuring the DAO into Hubs and Teams.
• Conduct a listening tour with key community members.

Month 2:

• Announce the BHAG.
• Launch the new Hub and Team framework.
• Hold the first round of Hub Cuddles and Community Pods.

Month 3:

• Collaborate with Hubs and Teams to set measurable milestones.
• Introduce a visual roadmap to track progress.
• Evaluate the impact of changes and gather feedback for refinement.
• Propose the concept of PIVX Showcase: Monthly or bi-monthly public community sharing events where members present accomplishmentsideasand updates to inspire creativity and collaboration.

​

Long-Term Ideas​

Community Discussions on Decentralization and DAO Security:

• Initiate discussions about enhancing decentralization and designing safeguards to protect against hijacking attemptsensuring the DAO's resiliencesecurityand independence. Additionallycreate routines for consistent follow-ups on proposal fulfillments to maintain accountability and progress.

Community Celebrations:

• Organize annual or bi-annual gatherings to honor milestonesrecognize contributionsand build camaraderiereinforcing the DAO's friendly and inclusive culture.

​

Proposal Details​

Commitment: 15 hours/week (60 hours/month) for the initial 3 months.

Compensation: USD 60/hourtotaling USD 3,600 per monthconverting to roughly 10000 PIV at the time of submitting this proposal (PIVX price ~$0.31 on Jan 1st2025).

Outcome Measurement:

• Adoption of the common goal by the community.
• Successful launch of the Hub and Team structure.
• Positive feedback from community members regarding cohesion and collaboration.
• Progress toward defined milestones.

By rallying the community around a shared goal and implementing a structure that supports collaboration and growththis proposal aims to position PIVX as a leader in the decentralized spaceready to tackle future challenges with confidence and unity.

I'd love to read your constructive feedback on this proposal. I hope that -with your help- it can find the needed acceptance.

I am looking forward to closely cooperating with @LeacyMcK@Liquid369@PIVX Labs@Jeffrey@RedByrd@Hawtch and many others and am grateful for the valuable feedback that I have already received.

Mental health... If your that unstable you should be no where near. This isn't a safe place for your feelings.

You cannot keep the community close when alot of us are banned from discord and discussions! Your little sect may be close but theres a whole different set of people that have been shunned.

Your far from glue. If anything your causing more division as I can't stand the way you feel your involvement to shape pivx is the next step. Trying to change how groups have been working fine for years. Yes there needs to be someone to make sure people are pulling there weight. I'm sick of having to call people put but this involvement is brainwashing. Trying to set your view as this is thr direction. Good job the votes control that and I hope other masternode owners realise this is not the direction to go. Votes control it and always will.

Sod the mental health and emotional safety. This is not a safe space for your feelings. If your doing a bad job you get called out. That's how management works.

Ffs what is it with cuddles?? Just reading that makes me cringe. I hope other people see this and realise this is not a proposal that should be anywhere near pivx.

Thank you for your viewwhich I don't agree with. In my opiniona workplace should very well be a safe space. Psychological safety is the cornerstone of any thriving workplacewith an environment where individuals feel secure to express ideasask questionsand admit mistakes without fear of judgment or reprisal. When contributors experience psychological safetythey are more likely to collaborate effectivelytake creative risksand engage in problem-solvingall of which drive innovation and productivity. It reduces stressbuilds trustand enhances team dynamicsultimately contributing to a healthiermore resilient organization where everyone can perform at their best.

Gerrald said:

I respectfully disagree with your suggestion. While masternode owners play a crucial role in voting on proposalsthe role I’m proposing as a Community Coach is not about catering to the interests of a select few. It’s about fostering a collaborativerespectfuland creative community environment that benefits everyone involved in PIVXnot just those with voting power. A responsible masternode owner sees this.

Over the yearsyour communication has frequently been divisivenegativeand at times even threateningwhich has consistently undermined the core principles of what PIVX stands for. Such behavior does not serve the greater good of the community but instead weakens our ability to growcollaborateand attract new contributors; individuals who value freedomprivacypurposeand a mission to create positive change.

I fully expect you to vote against my proposaland I respect your right to do so. HoweverI also see this as further evidence that you prioritize your personal rejection of me over what is beneficial for PIVX as a whole. This pattern of behavior has been demonstrated in your earlier comments and actionswhere divisiveness seemed to take precedence over constructive collaboration.

A responsible masternode owner recognizes the importance of strengthening respectful communicationthe well-being of the communityfostering inclusivityand supporting initiatives that align with PIVX’s long-term success. My proposal is about building a unified and empowered community for everyone willing to submit to the values PIVX stands fornot about personal agendas. If you truly care about the future of PIVXI urge you to consider what will help us grow and thrive rather than perpetuating a cycle of division and negativity.

If you find yourself unable to engage respectfullyif living up to PIVX’s values of a friendly and constructive community feels out of reachor if providing criticism in a constructive and friendly way and granting others their right to being treated with respect is beyond your scopethen perhaps PIVX is simply not the right community for you. We need contributors who build bridgesnot wallsand who see the value in collaboration over conflict.

Not in my experience or anyone who I have spoke to. Your adding extra people put in place that serve 0 purpose. Cut the waste. Look what's happening with Elon musk and DOGE draining the swamp. You are obviously in favour of all of it. People are finally waking up that people in your mindset are a drain on resources.

Can't do the job? Then don't.
Worried about people calling you out? Should never have been in that position in the first place.

I don't care about people's feelings and mental health. I care about how best to spend the pivx budget which all masternode owners job is to do. Cut the waste and spend it on worthwhile proposals.

You've not even been here long enough to grasp why my wording is so blunt. There's no threats in my wording only yes or no votes. The core of pivx is a decentralised communitywhere anyone can step up but a view which I hold and others gets shut down because you are all hypocrites who only believe in a direction if it's your own. Where as I would want to find a middle ground.

I am a responsible masternode owner that has been here from day 1. I have provided thousands of £s to help when budget was thinpaying for other people to then be shunned out because I call put bullshit and this proposal is one of them. Don't try to patronise me thinking your above me. I've been involved in pivx far longer than you and I have put my money where my mouth is to buy nodessupport proposals not funded to make pivx succeed. Again to be shunned and silenced from the community. If you really want inclusivity unblock everyone and let freespeach happen.

Again. Who decides these? It wasn't a community effort as the opposition view is ignored. A liberal leftard movement is trying to take over a dao which should be everyone's views. Not silencing the opposition.

You all involved are complete hypocrites. A storm will happen eventually. At first we couldn't block proposalsnow we sometimes do. There is a community away from this fairy tail one you have all made and it is will become more and more powerful as it has been doing over the years.

Tell me and everyone else your qualifications. You said you worked in banking? What did you do? You said you have done research to say this is how to go? Show it. Your trying to convince me and others that your view is the best way. Show some evidence.

It's unfortunate that you've again chosen to resort to insults and inflammatory language rather than engaging in a respectful and constructive dialoguebut I am grateful for you proving my point. Your comments are not only disrespectful but also detract from the core values of what a community-driven DAO like PIVX should represent: values of mutual respectcollaborationand meaningful engagement.

Diversity and inclusion are about creating an environment where differing perspectives can coexist respectfullyeven when there are disagreements. Howeverthat does not mean tolerating personal attackstoxic behavioror divisive rhetoric. Criticism is welcome when it is constructive and contributes to a better understanding or improvementbut this kind of aggressive and derogatory language is neither productive nor acceptable.

I will not tolerate this type of behavior against me or anyone else in the community. PIVX deserves better—contributors who can disagree with dignitydiscuss opposing views intelligentlyand work toward solutions without resorting to insults. If you find it challenging to communicate respectfully and align with the values of a collaborative and inclusive communitythen I invite you again to consider whether PIVX is the right space for you. There is no room for your toxicity in a community that strives to build something meaningful together.

I will ignore future posts from you until you are able to manage to communicate respectfully.

And you are to say what the community can tolerate? Pivx is the owners. Not younot ericnot leacynot jeffery. This is a dao. People get voted in and out all the time. The masternode owners are pivx currently how pivx works. They control the funding which in its self controls the direction of pivx. People don't work for free! You are living in a bubble of self entitlement who has never had anyone call put your obvious hypocritical bullshit.

Which is what leacy has done and look how close she is to not passing? Not a good route to take. Accountability! One of your own words used yet you don't want it when it's an opposing one you are the beacon of hypocrisy and I hope all masternode owners see this.

Here are my thoughts at this point.

I value the objectives of the proposaland I want to see it succeed. HoweverI feel you are 'putting the cart before the horse'. What I would like to see firstis Community consensuson the need forand definition ofa 'Big Hairy Audacious Goal' (BHAG). After that is completeI would like to revisit this proposal.

I summarized my view herein the preliminary discussion thread:


Your response was; "I don’t believe we need to wait for complete alignment before making progress." (You are agreeing it can be done first.)

The only downside if we do the BHAG firstis that it delays this proposal by 1 or 2 months. Not a big deal.

Furtherworking with the Community to define the BHAG firstas a volunteerwill demonstrate you have the 'cat herding' skills absolutely necessary for working with the PIVX DAO. This will add support to this 'DAO Community Coach' proposal and increase the odds it will pass in a future cycle.

Lets look at it this way. There are 3 options:


Option 1: Work with Community to first determine our BHAG.

This already has the support of youme@Gerrald (He liked my above post) and indirectly appears to be supported by the entire Community. (All discussions related to the need for a BHAG have been positive.)

You can start on it RIGHT NOW. No vote is requiredas no funds are involved.


Option 2: Continue with this proposal.

Based on feedback in this proposal and the preliminary discussionodds are this proposal will NOT pass. Sadlythat will likely undermine any future efforts on Option 1.


Option 3: Start on Option 1and re-group for Option 2 later.

This does not increase the amount of work required. Just re-orders it.

It separates the BHAG from the rest of your proposal.

It provides an opportunity to gain support from others that are not yet convinced to vote for your proposal.

You will most likely learn a significant amount that will shape an update to this proposal.

It gives much more time for people to consider your proposal and provide respectfulconstructive feedback.



I hope this helps!

As has always been said for everyone and every proposal. Volunteer first and prove it's worthwhile. Show everyone it's worthwhile.

Prove me wrong it's worth it i welcome it but the problem is you want to know everything and be involved in every part of pivx which I think goes completely against the dao and how it should work. People put seperate proposals in for the role they want and how they will work. They do not put a proposal in to then be told this is not the right way and you need to change it to and do it this way.

Here are my thoughts at this point.

I value the objectives of the proposaland I want to see it succeed. HoweverI feel you are 'putting the cart before the horse'. What I would like to see firstis Community consensuson the need forand definition ofa 'Big Hairy Audacious Goal' (BHAG). After that is completeI would like to revisit this proposal.

I summarized my view herein the preliminary discussion thread:

Pre-Proposal Discussion: DAO Community Coach Role – Shaping Our Future Together

Hello PIVX Community I’ve been part of the PIVX community since 2019and many of you may know me from my activity on X (formerly Twitter)where I work to raise awareness about PIVX and its values. Over the yearsI’ve deeply appreciated this community’s resilienceinnovationand commitment...

forum.pivx.org

Your response was; "I don’t believe we need to wait for complete alignment before making progress." (You are agreeing it can be done first.)

The only downside if we do the BHAG firstis that it delays this proposal by 1 or 2 months. Not a big deal.

Furtherworking with the Community to define the BHAG firstas a volunteerwill demonstrate you have the 'cat herding' skills absolutely necessary for working with the PIVX DAO. This will add support to this 'DAO Community Coach' proposal and increase the odds it will pass in a future cycle.

Lets look at it this way. There are 3 options:


Option 1: Work with Community to first determine our BHAG.

This already has the support of youme@Gerrald (He liked my above post) and indirectly appears to be supported by the entire Community. (All discussions related to the need for a BHAG have been positive.)

You can start on it RIGHT NOW. No vote is requiredas no funds are involved.


Option 2: Continue with this proposal.

Based on feedback in this proposal and the preliminary discussionodds are this proposal will NOT pass. Sadlythat will likely undermine any future efforts on Option 1.


Option 3: Start on Option 1and re-group for Option 2 later.

This does not increase the amount of work required. Just re-orders it.

It separates the BHAG from the rest of your proposal.

It provides an opportunity to gain support from others that are not yet convinced to vote for your proposal.

You will most likely learn a significant amount that will shape an update to this proposal.

It gives much more time for people to consider your proposal and provide respectfulconstructive feedback.



I hope this helps!

Thank you for your feedback. I agree that starting with the community to determine the BHAG (Option 1) is a valuable approach and aligns with my intentions. In factI’ve already begun informal discussions with some community members to understand their perspectives and build momentum. The BHAG proposed in this text is merely a starting pointa first idea to inspire dialogue rather than a predefined goal.

I believe there might be a few misunderstandings worth addressing:

1. While the BHAG is an essential part of the proposalit’s not the sole focus. My intention is to foster community cohesionimprove DAO structureand create a supportiveinclusive environment. These elements are interconnected with defining the BHAG and can progress in parallel.
2. Informal conversations have already provided valuable insights. This proposal aims to formalize and expand these effortsensuring they have the structure and resources needed to succeed.
3. I see no need to separate the BHAG discussions from the rest of the proposal. Both the BHAG and the proposed new structure are steps toward unifying the community and achieving greater alignment.

With this proposal textI introduced the first idea of the BHAG and the new structure as a way to get the ball rolling. I see that I could make a more explicit call for community thoughts and feedback on both the BHAG and the proposed structure.

Thank you again for your input.

It looks like there's a huge misunderstanding about my intentions. I thought I had been clearbut maybe I haven't. My goal was never to take a leading or managing role at any point of the processand I mentioned that explicitly in the proposal.

Working in the proposed role includes being involvedbut not in a way to do or command or know or to be involved in every part of PIVX.

s has always been said for everyone and every proposal. Volunteer first and prove it's worthwhile. Show everyone it's worthwhile.

Wouldn't known I'm shunned aswell as others from Discord. I see what I see on x and here. Which is why I push forever foe postsupdatesreports etc here.

I would like to invite you to explore a BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) that I shared in my recent proposal:

"To position PIVX as one of the top three privacy coins by market capitalization by fostering a boldcreativeand friendly community dedicated to advancing robust privacy technologydelivering unparalleled user-friendlinessand striving for increased decentralization."

A BHAG like this serves as a compassinspiring long-term efforts and innovation. Once we agree on the overarching goalwe can work together to derive smalleractionable stepping stone goals to make it a reality.

But firstthe big question is:
What do you think of this overarching goal for PIVX?
Does it resonate with you? Do you see it as an achievable and meaningful aspiration for our community and project?

Your feedback is crucial to ensure that this vision reflects the shared aspirations of the PIVX community. Whether you’re inspiredhave concernsor want to suggest adjustmentsI’m eager to hear your thoughts!

Looking forward to your insights and ideas.

I would like to address some expectations I’ve perceived regarding starting work in this role before the outcome of this proposal is clear. While I appreciate the enthusiasm and support from community members who see this role as important—and even more those who believe I’m a good fit for it—I don’t believe it’s a good idea to begin prematurely.

I’ve taken the time to reach out to many community members for ideas and feedbackdeveloped a detailed planand proposed a BHAG for PIVXwhich has so far received some feedback. Howeverwithout a proper mandateI will not begin work in this role.

It’s essential that the community as a wholerepresented by the masternode ownersdemonstrates their commitment to this role and the inevitable changes that will come with it. A passing proposal signifies this collective commitment. Without itthere is no clear mandate to proceed.

I hope this clarifies my positionand I remain open to further discussion and feedback.
