KAT TOKENOMICS DAO - FRAMEWORK APPLICATION WORKING GROUP (FA WG)

Proposal: KAT Reward & Privilege Framework v1.0

 

1. Proposal Title

KAT Reward & Privilege Framework v1.0 - Application, Configuration & Operating Guidelines

2. Proposal Overview (Short Summary)

This proposal applies and operationalizes the KAT Reward & Privilege Framework v1.0, the unified symbolic recognition framework used across selected DEP Cohort 2 DAOs.

The purpose of this framework application is to provide:

  • Fair, consistent, symbolic recognition for contributions across DAOs
  • Clear regeneration-aligned contribution categories
  • Multi-stakeholder eligibility (DAO Members, Collaborators, Ambassadors, Partners, Volunteers, Users, KAT Holders)
  • Standardized configuration templates, logic, and operating guidelines
  • Cross-DAO comparability and auditability
  • A practical foundation for future (Cohort 3+) privilege-based systems

This Working Group focuses on applying, configuring, and supporting the framework in practice, not on designing new tokenomics primitives or executing DAO reward cycles.

Funding requested: $420
(from the Framework Application WG envelope - $800)

3. Alignment With Master Plan

3.1 Impact Alignment

This proposal delivers core Tokenomics DAO impact outputs:

  • DAO-specific KAT Reward & Privilege Framework configurations
  • Standardized contribution categories and configuration templates
  • Operating and review guidelines
  • Cross-DAO application practices
  • Non-financial privilege application examples

3.2 Regeneration Alignment

The KAT Tokenomics DAO does not directly generate revenue.

This proposal supports regeneration by:

  • Applying regeneration-related contribution categories consistently
  • Ensuring regeneration work is recognized under shared guardrails
  • Supporting DAOs in mapping regeneration activities to framework categories
  • Improving transparency and comparability of regeneration-related recognition

3.3 Budget Alignment

  • WG Envelope: $800
  • This proposal: $420
  • Remaining: $380

3.4 Synergy Alignment

The framework application requires coordination with:

  • Documentation & Learning WGs (tracking, guides, logs)
  • Working Groups of participating DAOs (application and feedback)
  • System Prototyping WG (workflow and dashboard alignment)
  • DAO Support & Audit WG (review and consistency checks)
  • DEP Organizer Team (governance alignment)

4. Purpose & Background

4.1 Purpose

To apply a simple, fair, transparent, multi-stakeholder KAT recognition system that:

  • Can be used consistently across DEP Cohort 2 DAOs
  • Aligns contribution recognition with regeneration goals
  • Supports diverse contributor roles
  • Enables repeatable monthly execution with low friction
  • Prepares the system for future cohort extensions

4.2 Background

DEP Cohort 1 highlighted:

  • Inconsistent KAT recognition practices
  • Divergent category interpretations across DAOs
  • Limited transparency and reuse of templates

DEP Cohort 2 introduces a dedicated Tokenomics DAO.
The Framework Application WG acts as the implementation layer, translating the framework into DAO-ready configurations and operating tools, rather than designing the framework from scratch.

5. Activities & Action Plan

5.1 Key Activities

  1. Review DAO scopes and contribution types
  2. Configure framework parameters per DAO
  3. Apply contribution categories and weighting principles
  4. Customize monthly Credit / Karma / KAT templates
  5. Define evidence and review requirements
  6. Facilitate 2–3 cross-DAO alignment workshops
  7. Support DAOs during early application cycles
  8. Produce recommendations for framework refinement (v1.1)

5.2 Deliverables

  • DAO-specific framework configurations
  • Monthly operating templates
  • Evidence and review guidelines
  • Cross-DAO application guide
  • Workshop slide deck
  • WG completion report

5.3 Timeline

Week Activity
Week 3 DAO scope review & configuration
Week 4 Cross-DAO workshops
Week 5 Finalization & governance alignment
Weeks 6–7 Application support
Week 8 Recommendations for v1.1

6. Roles & Contributors (Global)

A. Leads

  • Sofia Oliveira (Portugal) - Framework Application Lead
  • Bao Nguyen (Vietnam) - Cross-DAO Alignment Lead

B. Contributors

  • Daniel Smith (USA) - Configuration logic & examples
  • Rina Matsui (Japan) - Templates & documentation
  • Joseph Kim (South Korea) - Weighting application analysis
  • Priya Sharma (India) - Workshop facilitation

C. Supporting WGs

  • DAO Support & Audit WG (Tokenomics DAO)
  • System Prototyping WG (workflow alignment)
  • Documentation & Learning WGs (all DAOs)
  • Communications WGs (visual guides, where applicable)

D. Notes on Multi-Stakeholder Participation

While this WG’s core contributors are DAO Members, the framework applies to:

  • Community Collaborators
  • Partners
  • Ambassadors
  • Volunteers
  • External participants in DAO activities
  • KAT holders

These stakeholders do not participate in WG governance but are included as eligible recognition categories.

7. Budget Request – $420

The budget supports application work, configuration, facilitation, and early operational testing.

Budget Breakdown

Item Purpose Cost
Miro Team Plan (1 month) Contribution mapping $20
Notion Plus (1 month) Framework documentation $10
Figma Pro (1 month) Workflow visuals $24
Canva Pro (shared) DAO educational materials $28
Workshop mini-grants (4 × $15) Facilitators $60
Data analysis micro-grant Weighting application analysis $40
Alignment event logistics Materials & coordination $38
Prototype testing support Early application feedback $90
Contingency Tools & review support $110
Total $420

Remaining WG budget: $380

8. Regeneration Component

This proposal contributes indirectly to regeneration by:

  • Applying regeneration contribution categories consistently
  • Ensuring regeneration work receives appropriate recognition
  • Providing evidence and review templates
  • Supporting DAOs designing regeneration-related activities

This WG does not execute regeneration activities directly.

9. KAT Token Considerations

This proposal applies and governs:

  • Contribution categories
  • Weighting and configuration principles
  • Symbolic caps and guardrails
  • Multi-stakeholder eligibility
  • Evidence and review requirements
  • Cross-DAO consistency rules
  • Governance workflows for configuration changes
  • Non-financial privilege applications

Privilege examples may include:

  • Priority registration
  • Recognition badges
  • Early access to learning resources
  • Participation-related privileges

All privileges remain symbolic, non-financial, and exploratory in DEP Cohort 2.

10. Dependencies & Risks

Dependency / Risk Mitigation
Low DAO adoption Workshops and hands-on support
Category confusion Examples and shared Q&A
Overcomplexity Start with minimal v1.0
Data inconsistency Standard templates and reviews
Technical limits Manual workflows; automate later

11. Success Criteria

Primary Success

  • Framework applied by participating DAOs
  • Templates used in live cycles
  • Reduced ambiguity and rework

Secondary Success

  • Cross-DAO consistency achieved
  • Positive DAO feedback
  • Clear inputs for v1.1 refinement

12. Documentation & Reporting
