Hi @pathrocknetwork
Thanks for voting. I would really appreciate any feedback on the nay so that I may improve the proposal.
Hi @xcRom1.dot
Thank you for the thoughtful feedback and for raising this important point around transparency.
I did include my role as community manager for the Discord as I think it helps voters understand I am in alignment with their interests. I did not include the Anti-scam team as I did not feel that was relevant. That said, I agree it would be helpful for the community to see the full picture, and I will update the proposal to reflect my current commitments.
For clarification:
I am no longer part of the moderation bounty, as I now manage the Polkadot Discord entirely under the marketing bounty. This is noted in the proposal. I have added additional text to ensure that voters understand it is funded through the marketing bounty.
I also serve as a curator and content creator for the Anti-Scam Team. With the recent update to the bounty structure, this role now has a significantly reduced workload. I have also added this part
Given these adjustments and the delegation in place within each initiative, I believe I’m well-positioned to take on this additional proposal and deliver effectively. I appreciate the opportunity to clarify and will make sure the proposal reflects this context moving forward.
Edited
I would like to link my talk on AAG #230, for those who might be curious of who I am, or what the proposal is about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wx8Tk67XcN0

PolkaWorld votes AYE.
Continued engagement with policymakers and the exploration of potential collaborations are critical efforts Polkadot should be investing in at this stage.
While working with policymakers and governments often involves a high degree of uncertainty, this proposal still provides a relatively clear set of objectives, a concrete work plan, and defined key performance indicators (KPIs).
The proposed $50,000 budget ($4,166/month) for a full-time role is even below the industry minimum, according to Web3 non-tech salary benchmarks, making this a cost-effective initiative.
I've been working with the TBC for the past year and have already onboarded Judge so he's ready to hit the ground running as I pivot to doing development work. With his background, I think he'll do great, and he's already shown quite a bit of initiative and thoughtfulness within the TBC.
