This is a strong proposal in principle — especially the full IP ownership and long-term development stability.
However, the payment structure is clearly too one-sided in favor of Steem Monsters Corp.
Key issues that should be addressed before final approval:
DAO must have control or co-control over accepted payment tokens
The “shortfall make-good” clause is unacceptable without a symmetrical upside
Token volatility risk is entirely on the DAO — this needs balancing
IP ownership should not be limited by approval rights from the company
Fix these, and this becomes one of the best moves in Splinterlands history.
