This post means to start an update thread from the Governance Contribution Reward Working Group.
The working group kicked off yesterday (18.07.2025), with participation from @kevinknielsen, Alex, @Seiryuu, @Bitblondy, as well as @Jamilya, and @eugene.
We are aiming to draft a proposal in the next ~4 weeks, targeting the September voting cycle. The
group is tasked to outline the next GCR iteration covering the second half of the year, following the initial version passed in June.
By next week, the working group members will research existing delegate incentive programs, compare the criteria and develop delegate personas.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or input!

The working group held its second meeting yesterday.
We reviewed a list of incentive criteria (thanks Alex and @kevinknielsen), summarizing criteria from other delegate incentive programs, and discussed which activities should be considered baseline, and which could be treated as bonus or optional.
The goal is to recognize active delegates, while keeping the program accessible for new participants and reducing operational overhead.
By next week, we plan to collect data on current delegate activity to run potential scenarios (@Seiryuu) and draft the initial proposal outlining the structure and rationale of the next GCR iteration.
Thanks for the good wishes @Matt_FactoryLabs!
