What is Coordinape?

Coordinape is a program that decentralized communities can use to come to consensus on the contribution amounts that should be received by different community members. While it is mostly based on Ethereum, the idea of using it in operations does not require the use of a blockchain, only an account.

The basic idea behind this is that each 'epoch' all members of a Circle (a group denoting a group working on a particular kind of function) can distribute a set amount of GIVE tokens to other members to indicate the impact that they had on one another's work.

This means that at the end of each epoch, al users allocate their, say 100GIVE to those that they measurably affected the outcomes that the Circle were aiming for. To this end, a group might look like the following:\

`Alice - 100 GIVE
Bob - 100 GIVE
Charlie - 100 GIVE
Deborah - 100 GIVE`

Before the end of the epoch, these Circle participants would distribute their GIVE such that:

`Alice:
	Alice - 20 GIVE
	Bob - 50 GIVE
	Charlie - 30 GIVE
	Deborah - 0 GIVE
Bob
	Alice - 30 GIVE
	Bob - 10 GIVE
	Charlie - 30 GIVE
	Deborah - 30 GIVE
Charlie
	Alice - 40 GIVE
	Bob - 20 GIVE
	Charlie - 10 GIVE
	Deborah - 30 GIVE
Deborah
	Alice - 20 GIVE
	Bob - 35 GIVE
	Charlie - 25 GIVE
	Deborah - 20 GIVE`

At the end of the epoch, the totals would be tallied:

`Alice - 110 GIVE
Bob - 115 GIVE
Charlie - 95 GIVE
Deborah - 90 GIVE

For a total of 400 GIVE`

These Circle members would then be allocated their 'share' of distributions from whatever granting system is being used to pay them:

`Total pool size : 6000 USDC
	Alice - 27.5% of pool - 1650 USDC
	Bob - 27.75% of pool - 1725 USDC
	Charlie - 23.75% of pool - 1425 USDC
	Deborah - 22.5% of pool - 1350 USDC`

This way, those that participate in pool distribution all have a say in how much of the pool is used to allocate toward different efforts, and each participant of the Circle is recognized based on the impact seen by the others in their Circle.

Namada community work

For Namada rPGF community program, this might be a favorable tool, because it could mean that fair distribution is done on the basis of perceived impact by a Namada rPGF council.
