This proposal requests the allocation of token-based compensation to the Astar Community Council members for Q1 2025. This reflects their commitment, time, and continued contributions toward building a decentralized and transparent governance framework that serves the entire Astar ecosystem.
To make the distribution process easier and smoother, @Gaius_sama, a Main Council Member, is requesting the full amount from the Main Treasury and take responsibility for distributing the allocated compensation to each Community Council member accordingly.

This ensures fair compensation aligned with the original intent of the $800/month value, avoiding unnecessary limitations caused by temporary market volatility.
This adjustment also reflects the substantial contributions and consistent performance of the Council throughout Q1. From the launch of the Code of Conduct for dApp Staking, to refining grant mechanisms, and advancing delisting and onboarding procedures, the Council has demonstrated exceptional commitment and care.
Council members contributed across a wide spectrum of initiatives—governance design, ecosystem coordination, compliance enforcement, and community engagement—often exceeding the baseline time commitment. This high standard of delivery justifies applying a stable, EMA-based calculation and removing the cap as an exceptional but fair measure.
This approach not only maintains the credibility of our reward framework, but reinforces our shared values of transparency, contribution-based recognition, and long-term ecosystem health.
