Introduction

On May 9, 2023, at 00:45, a proposal was voted on to purchase land in Decentraland. As a result, the Decentraland DAO acquired over 80 plots of land, including both individual parcels and larger estates. These plots are currently held in the DAO’s wallet.

The proposed Decentraland DAO Land Program (DDLP) aims to facilitate content creation on the platform. This new program would allow DAO Committee members (or other members appointed by the DAO Committee) to delegate these plots (excluding roads) for free to projects or members with compelling initiatives to deploy.

Additionally, the program empowers the DAO Committee to appoint or remove other members to review, analyze, and make decisions on proposals submitted by those seeking land delegation.

Procedure

To be eligible for land delegation, community members must complete a form explaining why they need the land, how long they require it, how many plots are necessary for their project, and other relevant details. The DAO Committee (or the appointed members, if applicable) can then accept, decline, or request modifications to the proposal.

Criteria

For a project to be accepted, the use of the land must meet specific criteria and parameters:

Content Creation: The land must be used for creating genuine content rather than primarily displaying banners or advertisements. Prohibited Content: The project must not use the land for pornographic or explicit sexual content. Land Rental: The project is not allowed to rent the land to other members, except when renting is part of a game or experience. Prohibited Activities: The project must not promote discriminatory or illegal activities.

Cancellation

The Decentraland DAO Committee or their appointed members reserve the right to terminate access to the land at any time if any of the following conditions are met:

Irrelevance: The project has shifted focus to something unrelated to its original proposal without consulting and getting approval. Non-compliance: The project is not adhering to the established criteria. Community Behavior: The creators are engaging in or promoting toxic behavior within the community by not following the code of ethics. Lack of Engagement: If the project is not attracting any users and the land is needed for more relevant projects, the delegated member will receive a two-week grace period as notification before access is revoked. Project Duration Expiration: The allocated time for the project has ended, and the land is needed for new delegations.

FAQ

Q: Why will the DAO Committee be doing this and not a INSERT NEW CORE UNIT HERE? A: Mostly because we can do it ourselves, and it doesn’t cost any additional money to the DAO. However, if we think it would be better to appoint volunteer members, we will do so with the best of intentions.

Q: Does this include roads? A: No.

Q: I don’t like X specific thing of the program. What can I do? A: Feel free to leave your comments on what you would like to be different.
