DRC - DOT Enforcer {Compensation Increase}

Hi @ImmutableLawyer,

After closely following dYdX governance for the past few months, I’m excited to join the forum discussion on your topic and plan to be more active in the future.

I have a few questions regarding the Enforcer role within dYdX Operations Trust and the rationale behind the proposed compensation increase. If I understand correctly, the current base compensation is $1500, and your request entails a 300% increase, as outlined here: dYdX Operations subDAO V2

Aside from considering your work, have there been significant changes between the initial draft and your current actions as an Enforcer?

Regarding the Enforcer role, I came across this note, which appears to document your surveillance work as an Enforcer over the past month: Enforcer’s Notes .
From my understanding, the Enforcer role isn’t intended to be a full-time commitment, and compensation should reflect that.
However, it seems that your requested increase may be related to other contributions you’re making outside the scope of the DAO. Is this correct?

Additionally, what is your stance on the compensation for trustees? Just as a reminder, it’s currently set at $2000. Considering industry standards, this also appears to be on the lower side. Typically, the Enforcer role is less time-intensive compared to that of a trustee. Should trustee compensation be reconsidered as well?

Please note that I am genuinely neutral on this proposal, and I believe I do not have a comprehensive enough understanding of your contributions to either support or oppose this proposal.
Looking forward to your insights on these matters.
