It's worth continuing to pay $8,400 per cycle and sending an additional 3m JBX to filipv for:

1. Continued development of independent projects. Over the last 7 cycles, I made:

• juicebox-tweeter, a tool to send out Twitter notifications when new projects are created on Juicebox.
• juicebox-heartbeat, the tool which powers # 💓｜heartbeat in JuiceboxDAO's Discord and # 🤖-juice-notifications in Peel's Discord.
• G.R.E.G., a tool which processes, transcribes, and summarizes town hall audio and can be used for other meetings.
• jb-chat-cli, a CLI proof of concept for using LLMs to guide Juicebox project configuration.
• discord-summaries, a tool which fetches activity across a Discord server and summarizes it using LLMs.
• bannygpt, a website which uses LLMs to assist Juicebox project creators.
• (Still WIP) bananapus.com, a frontend for the bananapus-721-delegate. This will be live soon.
• (Never shipped) I created a merkle claiming frontend and server for Bananapus.

I'm getting better at programming over time and hope to spend more time doing this going forwards. My planned work includes (in order):

• Finishing and publishing the bananapus.com MVP.
• Significantly upgrading bannygpt with a more capable LLM, a larger context window, better data, and a more user-friendly interface. I will also experiment with various embedding models to see if they yield any improvement over the current model (Sentence Transformers all-MiniLM-L6-v2). I plan to continue studying LLMs and to incorporate them in more sophisticated projects in the future – some examples are: a natural language Juicebox project risk assessor, project creator assistance built into juicebox.money, and an LLM to help developers explore Juicebox's technical docs.
• Making discord-summaries more configurable and building a frontend for it. It should function as a mostly automated SaaS product. Initial feedback suggests that this will be very useful for JuiceboxDAO members.

2. Contributions to projects within the Juicebox ecosystem. Within the past seven cycles, I :

• Added a "How it Works" page and updated the copy throughout Defifa's website.
• Created a PR to update copy throughout blunt.fund.
• Submitted several pull requests to juicebox.money, including copy updates, bug fixes, a new legal resources page for project creators, and multiple legal improvements suggested by Robert Leonhard from Open Esquire (who I have retained to provide legal advice pertaining JuiceboxDAO). I have learned enough about the law to write basic drafts which I can send to Rob (or another legal expert) to finalize.

3. Onboarding and helping project creators. Outside of projects related to JuiceboxDAO, I have personally helped out the project creator associated with every project currently trending on juicebox.money. Over the past 7 cycles, I have helped the project creators associated with:

• MijaniDAO
• Edu3Labs DAO
• Bobo's Big Top DAO
• $Pepe sponsors Hibernian FC
• Legends
• DomainDAO
• Thirsty Thirsty

I also helped the Buidl Guidl project and projects made by Hackathon entrants through my role running the Hackathon. This is based on a quick scroll through juicebox.money, and I may be forgetting some projects. I also worked on several projects which didn't come to fruition, respond to most messages from https://juicebox.money/contact, and have ongoing email correspondence with several project creators. I plan to keep helping project creators going forwards.

4. Operations.

• I queue, coordinate, and execute most multisig transactions.
• I'm heavily involved with DAO governance. I wrote 13 of the 28 proposals in the previous 7 cycles – of note were Shut Off v1.1/v2 JBX Minting, Sponsor Buidl Guidl NFT Delegate Hackathon, Implement Buyback Delegate; Deploy JBX Liquidity Pool, Migrate to JBETHPaymentTerminal3_1_2, and several proposals made this cycle.
• I manage the DAO's software subscriptions – Figma, Notion, Google, and other things as they come up.
• I manage and moderate the DAO's Discord server, and help out with Discord servers for project creators and projects within the ecosystem.
• I'm involved with the implementation of most governance proposals.

5. Ongoing management and improvement of docs.juicebox.money. You can see my contributions on GitHub.

Some messages from the most recent Code4rena contest:

I can't overstate how much I like these docs

yeah docs are really good

wow the docs are great

The project has excellent docs.

Jango likely wrote much/most of the docs being described here though.

6. Running events.

• I proposed and helped to run the Code4rena audit of the Buyback Delegate (although Dr. Gorilla did most of the actual work responding to questions).
• I proposed and helped to run the Delegate Hackathon (although Jango did most of the actual work responding to questions).

7. Security.

• Helped Jango mitigate and wrote the postmortem for the issue described here: v1 Payouts Post Mortem.
• Remediation and postmortem for the issue described here: 2023-07-24 – Hold Fees Calculation Error.
• Various frontend bug fixes.

8. Miscellaneous.

Over the past seven cycles, I've participated in several Twitter spaces, been a guest on the DAO Deep Dives podcast, and gave a guest lecture about Juicebox at NYU. I've worked on some other things omitted from this proposal for brevity – you can see more in the # ☝｜standup channel and on GitHub.

If JBP-418 is approved, this should be a $12,600 payout for 5 cycles instead.
