Chihuahua Community DAO Proposal
Allocate 50M HUAHUA from the community pool to a community multisig address to be spent on bootstrapping Chihuahua community engagement.
“To the world Chihuahua is just a dog, to us Chihuahua is the world.”
We believe that Chihuahua can be a fun and engaging tool to introduce current and new crypto adopters to the Cosmos SDK and Inter-Blockchain Communication. With this vision in mind, we are asking the community’s support to form the Chihuahua Community DAO.
We will seek collaborations with every IBC zone starting with Cosmos Hub and Osmosis, to build engagement with two key communities. Future goals will be partnerships with major brands and content creators to increase the Chihuahua influence through strategic growth initiatives.
Initially, the DAO will assemble a team to support the Chihuahua community and mission. This team will create and maintain a presence and influence on platforms such as Telegram, Discord, Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, and more. The primary focus is to have continuous presence and messaging across all platforms. In addition, the DAO hopes to encourage community members to learn about and participate in governance. We will offer to assist in formulating ideas for improving Chihuahua and collaboratively draft and submit these proposals. We want to make the governance process transparent and accessible to all.
Every month, the DAO will produce a transparency report detailing the use of funds in the previous month. The report will disclose the amount of funds spent in the month, and for what purpose they were used. At the end of the first quarter, the DAO will conduct an assessment of the impact of its efforts on engagement and visibility, taking into account the feedback of the Chihuahua community, in order to maintain responsible usage of the community pool. A discretionary spend may be utilized for this purpose.
Staff
In this initial proposal, there will be 6 paid roles employed by the Chihuahua Community DAO: Two lead community managers and four social media managers.
Lead Community Managers will be tasked with supporting and executing the DAO’s community management strategy and organizing community-building initiatives to cultivate participation in community forums, as well as overseeing and participating in moderation. They will collaborate with the social media managers to produce documentation on the project and related concepts and tutorials. They will design and lead the initial content creation campaign. They will also be charged with seeking and executing partnerships with other project and groups in the Cosmos Ecosystem and beyond.
Social Media Managers will create and source content such as graphics, videos, articles, and social media posts, and execute the initial content creation campaign. They will also be responsible for moderating community groups on Telegram, Discord, and Reddit, and supporting the growing community by maintaining a unified and accessible online presence.
These roles are meant to be the bridge between community and the core team. Whenever possible, the Chihuahua Community DAO will aim to hire and reward community members for all roles. We will strive to increase meaningful community participation in the project.
Community Incentivized Programs
We are opting to hire full time positions in order to have a dedicated staff ready to spread the Chihuahua love; however, we also need to involve the community at large, as you are the true heart of Chihuahua. The Chihuahua Community DAO plans to launch with funding for its first initiative, a campaign to sponsor the creation of Chihuahua content such as memes, articles, guides, videos, graphics, social posts, and more. This campaign is intended to be a fun way to create content and engagement and reward the community. 21,000,000 HUAHUA will be allocated over the first quarter to bounties, contests, giveaways, and promotions, designed by the lead community managers and implemented by the social media managers. At least 33% of the spend will be to develop educational content regarding the Cosmos Ecosystem and IBC, and the DAO will seek to leverage funds wherever possible through collaboration with other networks.
Best Practices:
When possible, the Community DAO will aim to hire community members for key roles, to increase meaningful community participation in the project. In addition, the community incentives program will encourage participation and engagement while preventing favoritism. Expenditure details will be shared in the monthly transparency reports.
DAO Signers: Each DAO signer brings a wealth of experience to the table. They provide a well-rounded set of skills, such as experience in the crypto industry, marketing, data visualization, and program management. Moreover, since plans for the DAO were announced, these individuals have made a consistent effort to be part of brainstorming and formation process. These DAO representatives are already engaged members of the community, who can be held accountable to their responsibilities, and will be consistent in fulfilling them. By volunteering for this role and showing up over the last few weeks, these three have proven themselves capable of being good stewards for the Chihuahua Community. DAO signers will not be compensated from the multisig, with the exception of Karan who was chosen as moderator by the Chihuahua team and will continue to serve the Chihuahua Community DAO as one of the first Lead Community Managers.

You might recognize me for my work with Osmosis.zone, as senior community support admin. For me, Chihuahua was love at first sight. It drew excitement and adoration as the first memecoin in the Cosmos, even before the team debuted their sovereign, proof of stake dog chain with a strong validator set, IBC enabled at launch. Mind blown. I jumped at the chance to work with them, and my team, Interbloc, relayed the first IBC doggies, to BitSong and Juno chains (and in the process helped find the IBC bug in Osmosis v5). In working alongside the Chihuahua team I was impressed with how dedicated and technically skilled they are. I have faith that the core team will be able to execute great things for the benefit of the Cosmos Ecosystem and the world of memecoiners and I wish to assist them in this mission in anyway I can.
As to my experience, I have spent over 6 years as a manager of a small business and almost 3 years running my own contracting company. In the crypto sphere, I have a strong background in community building and engagement, with my aforementioned position as senior admin for Osmosis, and also as the co-founder of the Cosmos Airdrops Chat on Telegram (@CosmosAirdrops). In addition, I have served as CMO for SmartNodes validator, and I am the co-founder of Interbloc, where we work to promote transparency and decentralization in the Cosmos Ecosystem.
