Praise is a comprehensive community intelligence, reputation, and rewards system designed to help communities create a more engaging online environment. It allows community members to acknowledge each other's contributions and practice gratitude by praising peers, promoting a bottom-up approach that values peer recognition and community engagement. Praise offers a transparent and verifiable record of community contributions, making it easier to gather and analyze data about community engagement, and to reward contributors based on their actual impact.

Our proposal is to integrate Praise into the ENS ecosystem, providing ENS users and contributors with a powerful tool to enhance community engagement and promote a more positive and productive online community. By implementing Praise, ENS can address some of the coordination problems faced by decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), such as a lack of incentives for community members to engage, and a lack of transparency and verifiability regarding community contributions.

Objectives:

Improve Community Engagement: Praise provides incentives for community members to engage with each other and contribute to the ENS ecosystem, creating a more vibrant and productive online community.

Enhance Community Intelligence: Praise offers a transparent and verifiable record of community contributions, making it easier to gather and analyze data about community engagement and contributions.

Promote Reputation-based Governance: By implementing a reputation-based governance system, ENS can ensure that decisions are made based on expertise and contributions rather than financial power, promoting a more fair and equitable governance model.

Align Rewards with Contributions: Praise enables ENS to reward contributors based on their actual impact, creating a more aligned rewards system that encourages meaningful contributions to the ecosystem.

Implementation Plan:

• Integrate Praise into ENS: We will work with the ENS team to integrate Praise into the ENS ecosystem, providing users and contributors with a seamless experience.

• Customize Praise for ENS: We will customize Praise to meet the specific needs of the ENS community, ensuring that it aligns with the values and goals of the ecosystem.

• Launch Praise for ENS: We will launch Praise for ENS, providing users and contributors with a powerful tool to enhance community engagement, community intelligence, reputation-based governance, and aligned rewards.

• Support and Maintenance: We will provide ongoing support and maintenance for Praise for ENS, ensuring that it continues to meet the needs of the ENS community.

Praise is a powerful tool for enhancing community engagement, community intelligence, reputation-based governance, and aligned rewards. By integrating Praise into the ENS ecosystem, ENS can address some of the coordination problems faced by DAOs, promote a more positive and productive online community, and create a more fair and equitable governance model. We look forward to working with the ENS team to implement Praise for ENS and support the growth and success of the ENS community.
