I am all up for the future of this project, additionally I am pleased that there appear to be clear and concise remedies moving forward.
However, we really need to address the ‘now’. Since we are DAO, I have no issue with the vote as to whether or not Sifu remains the treasurer. That is a good first step.
The outcome of the vote really need to be Yes he stays, or No he is 100% out. By all means recompense him but out is out, not out but still involved in someway.
We then need to bring the confidence back and try to put an end to all the FUD. You need to remember that a lot people have FOMO’d into this with money they really shouldn’t have invested, lost life savings, rent money, student loans etc, yes we can argue that this was a silly move, and it was, however, it has happened.
If we are to function as a DAO/VC whatever it is, we need to have that vision and that scope. It needs to be clearly defined what we are doing and where the project is going.
At risk of trying to do too much too quickly, what I personally feel is needed is as follows:
- A brief pause to everything after the Sifu vote, whatever the outcome is.
- Sort out the whitepaper, get it updated - put to a vote of required. Get a proper Wonderland YT page, Twitter account, Telegram, Discord, no issue with the Frog nation stuff but that should be seen as a community thing and not representing the Wonderland project. Have dedicated people in charge of content, Mods et al. I see too many people getting banned, timed out or kicked out of the various forums often for trying to express their feelings which makes me think this all needs a complete overhaul.
We need clear guides on getting fiat into AVAX, wMEMO as an example so people aren’t scavenging all over the internet trying to work out what to do. The same goes for using Abracadabra, outside of that clear URL links if they want to use Fantom, Popsicle, dare I say Trader Joe.
This gives us the time (excuse the pun) to steady the ship, the financial impact and damage is already done, pausing everything won’t make it worse.

We clearly have an issue with those that got rek’d, those who were liquidated and those who are down 90%. I am not against a buyback, but we have to look at what investors were doing, reimbursing people who took stupidly high leveraging positions, in my opinion should not get anything out of any reimbursement of funds. We can’t have a position again where people are getting liquidated, only to get their funds back and do it over again, this must be put to a stop.
Additionally people who exited, profit/loss, well they exited, that for me was their choice and they are no longer an investor, so not due anything.

If we want proper ownership of the management side for the treasury, marketing, project work, development and potential investments, then we need to go to market and find the right people for the job. Not put all out chickens in one basket, bringing in an all-in-one company might seem a great idea, but if there is an issue and they went bust, lost focus, made a mistake etc then we have a problem.
Furthermore, like others have said they MUST be doxxed, properly vetted, maybe have an AMA with the candidates so we the investors can speak with them, understand what they can bring and see if their vision aligns with our own. Then have a vote. Once we have a potential team in place, they need properly vetting and I would do this with an external company, including all the relevant background checks before being officially announced.

If Dani is to remain the voice of the spokesperson which I hope he will, he needs a PA, someone with the language and grammatical skills to properly convey both written and vocal where needed as to anything he wants to put out into the open. Too many people in positions of wealth, fame and notoriety come across as out of the loop, stupid or simply incompetent, like unfortunately has already happened with Dani, I appreciate that Dani isn’t a native English speaker, but if he is going to make a social media post, it has to be done in the right way. We can’t have people disclosing personal messaged with him where he admits fault, he can’t be put in that position again. Of course he can use his personal twitter for anything he likes, but this should be for his own personal views, not the views of the project. There has to be a drawn line for this. Also, if he is going to carry on with Frog radio and all the other outreach stuff he is doing, he HAS to know what is going on with the project, saying things like he adds wMEMO leveraging when he is taking a shit might be funny at the time, but that has a negative reflection on the project and the whole eco system as a whole.
Once this has been done, then we go live again. I fear that if we don’t get it right this time, there will be no next time.
