PROPOSAL: Grape Event: Symmetry Challenge

[Arximedis]

1. Proposal Purpose:

Propose the Event details for a competition involving Symmetry Fi and outline the basics for the requirements, rules, and participation expectations.

GOAL: Educational challenges aim to explore new Solana dApps to teach the DAO and Community about applications, functionality, strategies, and/or capabilities that could be used by individuals, teams, or DAOs to manage, administrate, automate tasks, and/or mitigate risk.

2. Grape Proposal Overview:

Grape DAO will support an education challenge to test Symmetry.fi which is a Solana dapp that provides the ability to manage a basket or portfolio of tokenized assets that can automatically configure and balance the composition of allocations for selected assets. The application provides an index-style approach to managing risk and auto-rebalancing.

NOTE : Symmetry Portfolio is public and open for other users to deposit funds. No one should deposit additional funds, including the participant, beyond the required initial deposit. Bundles can not have token allocation selections changed after creation, but do permit rebalancing. Private Portfolios are like public Portfolios, but private unless the URL is shared or permission granted for others to deposit.

Each Participant will require 20 USDC of their own funds to be deposited in a Symmetry.fi Portfolio Basket and confirmed in the Grape Discord sharing the Symmetry Fi URL Link.

Details:

• SymmetryFi URL Example: Symmetry Fi Portfolio Link
• Discord Event Thread: Grape Discord Event Channel
• Challenge Duration: 1 Month
• Start: June 30th 2024 to July 1st 2024.
• End: July 31st 2024
• Symmetry Portfolio Creation: Create Basket | Symmetry
• Initial Deposit Amount: 20 USDC (NO ADDITIONS OR REMOVALS)
• SOL Cost to Create Portfolio: 0.29 SOL
• Portfolio Naming Start with: GR8 (i.e. GR8+ARX for Arximedis = GR8ARX or GR8+YOU = GR8YOU)

REMINDER: Once the 20 USDC is deposited between June 30th to July 1st, there can be no additions or removals, or the participants will be disqualified pending review.

Competition Scoring Criteria:

Each Participant will be scored based on the following 3 factors throughout the challenge:

1. 60% weight will be based on the overall performance of each participants basket taken as a snapshot randomly prior to the end and at the end of the competition.
2. 30% weight will be based on whether information and knowledge are shared to explain and educate others on the application functionality
3. 10% weight will be based on an average of the above, plus innovative ideas to explore or consider next for future events or DAO related activities or applications.

These criteria are subject to change or adjustment based on DAO discussion and agreement.

Regarding reimbursement of portfolio set-up fees (0.29 SOL) per user/wallet: Is there a limit to the number of participants? If there’s high participation (more than 15 participants), will the GRAPE DAO adjust the reimbursement fund to guarantee a refund to everyone?
