This retro took place on Dec 1, 2021. It was a combo of in-person and remote.
| What Went Well | What Didn't Go Well | Misc | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main themes | Airdrop / Max FOX launch went really well and positive reception from community & media | Bounty - No design/ux, product requirements, or architecture planning before bounty work started | Engineering oversights |
| DAOing it - Feels like the transition to a DAO and community building is going really well | Losing engineers and product folks post wave 2. No recruiting pipeline for engineering at the moment | Worried about next years taxes due to SS decentralizing | |
| Hit the Open Source Platform v2 bounty deadline | Tech debt occurred in open source platform v2 due to having to hit bounty deadline | Defi had to work a weekend on balance charts to get them right. | |
| Strong collaboration and team to hit bounty deadline | Lack of clear vision for DAO | So much innovation happening right now | |
| Other Topics | Open Source Platform v2 is pretty slick and built to scale | Trying to decentralize unchained is like fitting a round peg into a square hole | |
| Props to Bread for mobile responsiveness work | Pranksters in early DAO calls | ||
| Engineering community demos/office hours going well | DAO test funds logistics | ||
| DAO community engagement | A lot of DAO meetings. Most likely not good time management | ||
| Various DAO partnerships | Engineering resource allocation | ||
| Finally, Metamask support | Not enough allocation made to Unchained | ||
| # of Engineers that continued post wave | ~4% airdrop claim rate | ||
| Engineering leadership and planning | Underlying data structures | ||
| Planning and refactoring of v2 LPing | Code owners reviewing own PR's as bounty deadline got closers | ||
| Agile Governance process | Watchtower | ||
| Hired Oxcean | Lack of clear vision for future | ||
| Velocity / throughput increase since open source v2 | Gitflow | ||
| Post wave 2 transition went well | Package versioning in lib | ||
| Is client storage even feasible? | |||
