Hello everyone!

 With this post, we are requesting a top-up to the Moderation Team Bounty to continue funding their contributions and support to our community.

 Due to the current market conditions, we are requesting this top-up earlier than we expected.

 In addition, somes changes have been made to the initial proposal.

 All of these changes and the details of the proposal, along with spending analysis, can be found [HERE](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aFniLjcaNHc4ehJyIy0zQbWJJsEHqWuCRxX0szggPxk)

 Thank you for your attention!

Treasury Proposal: Moderation Team Bounty Top-up

Imbue was started with the vision of accountability empowered by the blockchain. We as an ecosystem can do better!

Imbue at its core is milestone-based vesting powered by democracy. Proposals are submitted on the network with milestones and their respective %s. Only funders get to vote on the progress of a project since they have the most to lose, while project initiators are incentivised to continue delivering so they get more of their project’s funds unlocked.

What we want to build is a platform where creatives, developers, researchers and anyone with talent can utilize their expertise to get paid securely and safely regardless of where they are in the world. To give people options that do not exist where they live and get funded in whatever substrate native token they wish

We believe this resonates strongly with the ethos of Kusama, and will be a great outlet to bridge over other ecosystems that can leverage Imbue and hence Kusama as a vehicle to achieve their dreams or improve their lives. Thereby pushing more adoption onto Kusama and definitively answering the popular misconception that Web3 lacks utility

The team reached out to the community and described what we wanted to do. A promise was set that - given the team's expertise to deliver on this - there will be no external funding until a usable product is produced. We decided to build it in an open-source manner with volunteers

Imbue is one of the very few(GM perhaps being the only other) that remains to this day open source and not funded with the sole purpose of protecting the community. As such, the team are also exploring ways to migrate towards a common good chain

We strongly believe that Imbue can add much-needed utility and value to Kusama beyond just DeFi, as well as help us reach beyond the Polkadot ecosystem and clearly and definitively answer "Why Kusama?" or "How does this make my life better?" and bring in users and adoption

Please feel free to look at the [proposal](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X-zlnNZ5zD9wZhNf-Prb3a5zv_HW_7aYrfcNBmPg9I4/edit?usp=sharing) and we look forward to your feedback

**Spanish Content and Event Production Bounty** is created to reward the community's content creators for their efforts in creating content in Spanish, as well as to ensure that the content created is of quality and kept in line with the needs of the ecosystem, incorporating defined criteria for each area of assessment.

This bounty was approved on Governance V1 as you can check [here](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/motion/568). Now we submit this referendum to assign the curators to that bounty.

Assign curators to Spanish Content and Event Bounty (Bounty #16)

Dear community,

**Summary:**  This proposal seeks to test the Treasurer's origin in its ability to cancel bounties and slash tips.  The bounties are SPAM and the tipping system is no longer receiving the attention of the Council.  If these actions are successful I am seeking a payout of 32 KSM (8 KSM per item) for use with my public staking rewards payout bot.

**Details:** The Treasurer track has been used to primarily fund recipients using `treasury.spend()`; it has also been used to fund and assign curators to bounties.  I would like to further test its ability to close two SPAMMY bounties entitled "[Catching #KSM Scams And Buying And Burning Rug Nfts](https://kusama.subscan.io/bounty/17)" and "[Help Bring The Ruggables Real Governance](https://kusama.subscan.io/bounty/18)".  I would also like to test use of an extrinsic that hasn't been used often, `tip.slashTip()`, this extrinsic removes a tip and slashes the user's deposit (0.033 KSM x 2) returning it to the treasury.  These are items of house keeping and it is best administered by the public in an open and collective manner.

As a reward, I am proposing a payout of 32 KSM (8KSM x 4) made payable to an account used by my public KSM staking rewards payout bot.  Rewards are divided into two independent branches, 16 KSM if both bounties are indeed closed and another possible 16 KSM if both tips are slashed.  If neither extrinsic is successful then no reward would be issued.

Regards,

This referendum is to assign the Administrative Curators to the IBP program. It will assign the following proxy address controlled by the following multisig account. Please note, originally, per our proposal we were supposed to have Art from Purestake act as one of the curators. Unfortunately due to time restraints we replaced Art's multisig slot with Coinstudio.

Assign Administrative Curators to Infrastructure Builder Program (Bounty #19)


This proposal seeks to enact the will of Ref 35 which failed due to "Bad Origin" on the proposeBounty() call.

[Treasurer] Referendum #51

**Proposal Summary**

On behalf of the community and ecosystem, we propose the creation of the **Infrastructure Builders Program** that will work to create a decentralized network of infrastructure services providers working as an autonomous organization to provide mission critical services. With recent issues in the crypto space regarding centralization around single providers for core network services; it is critical that the ecosystem work to decentralize all aspects of operations. By putting too much trust in any one entity we put the entire network at risk. We believe this program will work toward the goal of creating a more trustless environment with better collective oversight of network infrastructure and a high quality of service. 

**Service Details**

Existing members of the 1000 validators program will be able to apply to this program after having achieved the necessary rankings set forth in the proposal. Accepted applicants will deploy owned server hardware in enterprise datacenter environments to provide necessary bootnodes, rpc services, snapshots, and other critical infrastructure services. These services are expected to be 100% powered by renewable energy or 100% offset by other carbon reduction strategies. Members will be paid in an Infrastructure-as-a-Service format for the various nodes they run and operate decentralized health checks for all other members as well as other aspects of network infrastructure. 

We have already begun deploying and have a limited proof of concept as outlined in Program Milestone 1.  Stake Plus has teamed with 3 other 1000 validators program members located in the US, Turkey, Czech Republic, and Portugal. We are currently providing support for Westend, Kusama and Polkadot and are currently working to bring up services for Westmint, Statemine, Statemint, Encointer and Collectives. Existing services are deployed at the following locations:


- wss://rpc.dotters.network/polkadot
- wss://rpc.dotters.network/kusama
- wss://rpc.dotters.network/westend


**Funding Details**

We are requesting $1,300,000 for funding of the program milestone 2. The funds will be held in an Administrative Curator controlled 3 of 5 multi-sig wallet. The expected utilization of these funds is broken down as follows:


- Member One-Time Payments: $300,000 
- Member RPC Service Payments: $500,000 
- Member Snapshot Payments: $100,000
- Member Services/Monitoring Infrastructure: $75,000
- Janitorial Advisors Payments: $45,000
- Administrative Curator payments: $26,000
- Software Development Fund: $254,000

[Treasurer] Referendum #35

As we navigate OpenGov, we re finding new things again, a second time: referendum #1 would not have enacted succesfully, because the call we used (treasury.ApproveProposal) would have only be enacted successfully with root origin. Additionally, we have now discovered that referendum #3 will also not be enacted successfully due to a polkadot-js UI issue whereby it used the expected enactment block as the enactment duration rather than particular given time, so the proposal would take many years to enact.

This has since been fixed in the polkadot-js UI.

This is the (hopefully final) resubmission of the proposal:

- on Treasurer track (same one)
- with the call treasury.Spend (including the amount in KSM for the allocation)

Original replaced treasury submission: [HERE](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/treasury/229)
Second replaced treasury referenda: [HERE](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/3)

This proposal is now up for vote! aiming to cover the development of **Snowbridge** by the Snowfork team: a fully trustless, permissionless and general purpose bridge between Kusama/Polkadot and Ethereum. The bridge will launch on the Bridge Hub, a common-good parachain that is being developed by Parity for Kusama and Polkadot. This proposal is a funding request for 28 months worth of long term runway for all operations for the Snowbridge team (16 months retroactive, 12 months in future), with the goal to launch as a common-good bridge on the Bridge hub on both Polkadot and Kusama.

The full proposal can be reviewed on [the post](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/treasury/229) and includes extensive additional details related to further motivation for supporting and promoting Snowbridge, a long term roadmap, governance and economic plans as well as long term economic incentives for successful execution, launch and running of the project. Please note that both networks are voting on the project: the Polkadot proposal (up for vote by the council as external motion and later by the community if approved) can be found [here](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/treasury/229).
