> Draft of a potential bounty proposal template. > Please add your comments below! # Bounty Proposal Template Bounties are open-ended goals that could be met by anyone, including those other than the proposing party. - If you believe that something important should be done at Arrow and **you are willing and able to do it** - write a [grant application](https://dao.arrowair.com/t/grant-application-template/54/8) - If you believe that something important should be done at Arrow but **you are not willing and/or able to do it yourself** - write a bounty [proposal](https://dao.arrowair.com/t/bounty-proposal-template/55) and/or [definition](https://dao.arrowair.com/t/bounty-definition-template/56) (it will get posted on the bounty wall) The goals of the Bounty Proposal are: - to communicate your bounty idea clearly so that the GBC can decide if it’s worth pursuing. - to estimate the benefits and costs attached to your proposal. - to disclose any relevant conflicts of interest. Answers to the template questions do not need to be highly detailed. Estimates or ranges are acceptable. Brief answers are also fine. # Bounty Name - Name ## General Information - Briefly describe the proposed bounty - Why are you writing this bounty proposal? ## Benefits - Which other non-ArrowDAOs, projects, or individuals would stand to benefit from the bounty being successfully completed? ## Work Involved - What steps would be entailed in completing the bounty? Do successful examples of such work exist elsewhere? What skillsets or knowledge will be required? - What advice would you give a bounty hunter working on this bounty? - Should the output of this bounty be available under an open source license? ## Costs - How much do you think the completion of this bounty worth to Arrow (in USD)? - How much work will be needed to verify this bounty has been completed? What skillsets or knowledge will be required? - Apart from labor costs, do you predict this bounty would involve other associated costs? E.g. equipment, fees, subscriptions… ## Bounty Structure How would you structure this bounty, and why? - A single payout to single team on completion? - Divided into milestones? - Divided into Decision gates - Multiple payouts to multiple teams? - Should this be written up as multiple bounty definitions? - Something else? ### Is this bounty repeatable? - Are there any reasonable circumstances under which this bounty should be withdrawn? Should it expire? ## Conflicts of Interest - Does the person or persons proposing the bounty have any conflicts of interest to disclose? (Please disclose here if you are a member of the GBC or if any member of the GBC would benefit directly financially from the successful completion of the bounty). - Will the applicant, or any protocol or project in which the applicant has a vested interest (other than Arrow), benefit financially if the bounty is successfully completed? ---

No feedback after 4 days so I will assume that everyone is happy with the proposed template. 🙂 I’ll convert it into a google application form. I will leave this thread open for ongoing suggestions on how to improve the bounty proposal template in the future.
