Crafting Keys

Hey all! In this episode the group talks about community keys, permissions and configuration for the eden.fractal msig account. MSIGs, or multi-signatory arrangements, are a profoundly helpful tool that enable communities to flexibly share permissions for actions on community computers (such as EOS or Ethereum). You can learn about MSIGs in this article from Eden Creators, along with detailed notes and videos on all previous msig discussions in Eden Fractal.

Dan’s MSIG Configuration Proposal

One of the main topics which started the conversation during the meeting was Dan’s written proposal shared in the group prior to the meeting in these initial and secondary messages. The first message includes a link to easily see the average participants’ rank over the past 13 or 26 weeks in this spreadsheet. The second message is a first draft proposal containing a suggestion on MSIG configuration, which was widely discussed at the main event:

Tadas’ MSIG Configuration Proposal

As a first step, Tadas set up a poll a few days prior to the meting, asking people if they’d take the up the responsibility of being part of the owner permission. He shared the following proposal in the group chat:

Exploring the Fibonacci Distribution of Respect

There were many thoughtful upfront discussions in the Telegram group about the number of people in the msig and Fibonacci ratio coming from Marco’s initial message, which was followed by Noam’s response, Marco’s, Dan’s response which also included a reference to the Schelling Point. There were many thoughtful upfront discussions in the Telegram group about the Fibonacci ratio inspired by Marco’s initial message. This was followed by responses from Noam, Marco, and Dan (1, 2, 3) which also included a reference to the Schelling Point. Noam followed up to share more thoughts on the topic here and here.

MSIG Episode Discussions

Prior to the meeting, Tadas and Noam discussed how delay in the owner permission works, which you can see in this message. During the highly collaborative episode, the main topics got introduced at 0:09 and then thoroughly discussed starting at 59:52 as Dan presented his proposal and Tadas’s proposal. Tadas touched on the Telegram poll where he asked who’d like to take the responsibility of being part of the owner permission at 1:07:04. Following that, the group commented on the roles of MSIG controllers, active permissions and more between 1:10:12 - 1:28:19.

As the discussion progressed, the team debated on the number of participants, the voting options, and the need for an additional poll. Dan expressed his concerns about the number of people on MSIG and favored a 5 of 8 configuration instead of 4 of 6, which can be heard at 1:28:19. Lisa, Duane, and Rosmari preferred not being on MSIG, while Perry also leaned more towards 5 of 8 and was happy to be on MSIG, as discussed at 1:42:00.

The community aimed to reach a resolution after thoughtfully debating on the numbers of people in the msig between 1:54:45-2:09:06. Eventually, they settled on the idea of a 4/7 configuration with a time delay for security at 2:17:56. The meeting ended on a light note, with the team having the usual hats party from 2:20:31 to 2:25:14. 🎩

Throughout the conversation, the team's dedication to finding the best MSIG configuration was evident, showcasing their commitment to effective collaboration and decision-making. This devotion proves to inspire the sprouting of new fractals, and shows players’ care to crafting up Eden Fractal’s processes. 💙
