Dear Proposer,

Thank you for your proposal. Our first vote on this proposal is NAY.

The Medium Spender track requires 50% quorum (at least 4 aye votes) and simple majority of non-abstain votes according to our voting policy v0.2, and any referendum in which the majority of members vote abstain receives an abstain vote. This proposal has received two aye and three nay votes from eight available members, with three members abstaining. Below is a summary of our members' comments:

The comments reflected both support and concerns regarding the proposal. Some voters lauded the team and the product’s contribution to Polkadot’s ecosystem, emphasizing that Nova Wallet played a vital role in user growth. Others questioned the sustainability of retroactively funded, high-budget wallet proposals, pointing out excessive treasury spending and the lack of alternative, competitive funding models. Several expressed worries that continually high funding without prior community consultation might fuel an inflationary trend. While there was acknowledgement of Nova Wallet’s innovation and success, critics urged a more coordinated approach with structured evaluations to ensure that funding allocations align more closely with sustainable practices.

The full discussion can be found in our internal voting.

Kind regards,

TruthDAO vote: NAY

The proposed $130/hour rate exceeds our voting guideline of $100/hour. In addition, some members believe that, compared with wallets in the Ethereum ecosystem, all mature wallet tools in the Polkadot ecosystem should be self-sustaining and not rely on Treasury funding to continue product development.

Right now Saxemberg's scores for retroactive proposals are heavily penalized. This is done so that Opengov doesn't wake up to a 5-6 or 7 figure bill for work it didn't know was paying. Right now only wallets core efforts, Mimir, explorers and RPCs have a positive retroactive score.

Our modeling includes more than 1000 non-linguistic parameters so these are only verbal observations also included in the vote calculations and they are not an extensive review of the full rationale behind this vote.
