W3PI Token Index is a new type of Programmable Index Product (PIP) built on Polkadot. It combines decentralized asset exposure, legal protection for users, and upgradeable smart contract logic. W3PI will be the first decentralized non-custodial on-chain index token that tracks a dynamic basket of ecosystem tokens using programmable, transparent rules. The project includes smart contract and front-end development, setup of a Swiss GmbH, and incorporation of a Swiss Trust to own the protocol and hold user funds separately from any private entity.

The bounty is divided into three categories: Technical Development ($78,000), Operational GmbH ($56,000), and Swiss Trust ($52,000 for setup and $16,000 for endowment), totaling $202,000 USD (DOT equivalent). The curator will verify code deployments, audits, and GitHub releases, confirm legal documents, and trigger milestone payments based on proof of delivery. The governance and ownership model includes upgradeable smart contracts with ownership held by a Swiss Trust, protecting user funds from any private entity. The GmbH receives fees only from the protocol fee wallet, and all code will be open-source. Licensing will be MIT or Apache 2.0 for code, and legal documents will be available through links. The estimated completion timeline is 9-12 months.

Dear members,

Our **current [voting policy v0.2](https://docs.permanence.io/voting_policy/voting_policy_v0.2.html) defines the conflict of interest (CoI) terms as applying to core members only**. Please refer to the linked document for details. This internal referendum, in line with our internal discussion, proposes **extending this policy to community members**.

The rationale behind this proposal is that, **at 10 core members and 2 community members**, we still **haven't reached the size where members have enough freedom to critique each other's proposals without being prone to positive bias. Therefore, the DV delegation should be recused from voting on community members' proposals as well.**

As a note, our HQ account will remain eligible to vote on these proposals, as defined in the current policy.

We should revisit this policy once we reach the critical mass where internal evaluation is less prone to any kind of bias.

Kind regards,
kukabi | Helikon

A referendum has been proposed to allocate 500 DOT from the treasury to establish a Community Building Fund for Bend-PVM, a smart contract language optimized for PolkaVM. The goal is to expand the contributor base and foster an active developer ecosystem. The funds will be used for contributor rewards, hackathons, coding challenges, bug bounties, educational resources, and workshops. The allocation is as follows: 60% for direct contributor rewards, 20% for community hackathons and challenges, 15% for educational content and workshops, and 5% for administration and fund management. The community-driven approach aims to distribute knowledge, accelerate innovation, grow the ecosystem, and ensure sustainable development. Expected outcomes include increasing active contributors, hosting educational workshops, completing hackathons, and establishing a transparent contribution tracking system. All fund distributions will be publicly recorded and verified through a multi-signature account, with monthly reports detailing expenditures and progress. This approach is expected to accelerate development, create a pipeline of skilled developers, strengthen Polkadot's position, and demonstrate the effectiveness of treasury funds in fostering innovation.

2. Omni UX: This feature allows users to manage multi-sig accounts across different parachains, making it easier to use across the Polkadot network.
3. Mimir PAPI SDK: This software development kit helps more applications use multisig and proxy users, making it easier for developers to connect with Mimir.
4. Proposer & Multisig API: This allows businesses and DAOs to use multi-sig approval processes in their internal operations, like budgeting and decision-making.

Mimir already has over 2,000 users and is growing in the Polkadot ecosystem. They aim to become the standard for multisig operations in Polkadot.
