correct ✅ the Funding Council will remain responsible for distributing payment on a monthly basis

_[Edit 7/6 @ 9:50 am CT]_ Correct ✅

though they _could_ be a feature of WG v1.2.

Seeing that WG’s are expiring, time was/is of the essence and there are a number of complexities that need to be figured out, including but not limited to:

- How do we manage all of the-below?
- How do we determine lock-in prices?
- How / when do they reset? Is it tied to the WG or the contributor?
- How does it work when a contributor works across multiple working groups?
- Can a single contributor have different lock-in prices across multiple working groups?
- What happens if INDEX price craters? What happens when INDEX moons?
- How can all of this tracked in a consistent / transparent manner?

Not being difficult at all, great questions.

Re: multiple different rewards structures // contributor rewards generally needing an overhaul – i believe it is in the Coop’s interest to having different structures that enable different types of contributors to make a meaningful impact. With that said, the current structures _have_ been bottoms-up in nature.

Should you have specific suggestions for improvement, please do share! Improvement & iteration is great.
