Safe

let's take a moment to appreciate @safe and @gnosis-dao having remarkable ~8 year token vesting schedules.

unlike many preaching 'playing long-term', the Gnosis & Safe teams walk their talk, and always have.

job: token analyst. Talk to me about football, sports, crypto, outdoors, growth, econ, investing, chess

valid points — this is a nuanced situation that depends largely on co/org/ecosystem strategy+vision, as well as macro events.

that said, believe an org/co could have substantial dry powder and still choose longer vesting schedules to align incentives and filter-out (relatively) short-term builders.

in Safe's exact case, they've raised $100m, and considering the ongoing unlocks ft. 40%+ of supply towards DAO treasury, it seems they have healthy resources for experiments.

I also think they do things the right way but it kinda doesn’t matter if the foundation has such long vestings.

They should spend on whatever helps them win.

In fact, If spending today is better than in 3 years, can also argue for less rigid vesting.

Team members should be long-term incentivized for sure though.
