This proposal requests the allocation of token based compensation to the Astar Community Council (ACC) members for Q3 2026, covering the period from July 1 to September 30 2026. It reflects their commitment, time investment, and operational contributions toward decentralized governance, dApp Staking oversight, and Community Treasury management during the third quarter of 2026.

This is the third ACC compensation allocation under the fixed ASTR model introduced by Referendum #54 – Transition the Astar Collective to a sustainable compensation model. Compensation is not calculated in USD and converted at prevailing market prices. Each full member is entitled to a fixed amount of 48,000 ASTR per quarter, pro rated monthly for members who joined or left during the quarter.

There were no changes to the Council membership during Q3. All six members served the full quarter, under the roster enacted on chain through Main Council Motion #78 – Update Astar Community Council membership, May 2026.

To streamline distribution, @Gaius_sama (Main Council) will receive the full amount from the Main Treasury and distribute the allocated compensation to each Community Council member accordingly.

✅ Justification

During Q3 2026, the Astar Community Council delivered key governance and operational contributions, including:

1. Completed the Q2 2026 Astar Ambassador Fellowship evaluation cycle and executed the Ambassadors Tips distribution on chain via Community Council Motions #155 to #160 and #162: 7 Ambassadors, 98,000 ASTR in total
2. Published the Astar Ambassador Fellowship Activity, Performance & Retention Framework, setting clear standards for participation, performance evaluation, reward eligibility, retention, and offboarding
3. Handled the dApp Staking side of the WASM smart contract sunset: removed Lucky from the Strategic Staking Program via Community Council Motion #165, moving its 24M ASTR stake to the Community Treasury's own dApp Staking position so it keeps earning staking rewards, and delisted Lucky from dApp Staking via Community Council Motion #166
4. Claimed 2,606,326.43 ASTR in staking rewards (52 eras) for the Community Treasury, and continued to manage and review the Strategic Staking Program allocations
