[SOLUTION] Please describe your proposed solution.
The SWARM Treasury system, in development since late 2021 is a set of processes which combine Community Contribution systems to an on-chain Treasury System, making it easy for a community to build fully public and transparent contributions and treasury processes into a modular system.
First serious developments of the system have been funded through the Fund 9 DAO - Tools proposal (https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/421708) which has been successfully completed in March 2023.
Biggest Success so far:
The SWARM treasury system has been implemented in the SingularityNET Ambassadors program, where a task-based contribution system handles currently between 100 to 200 tasks on a weekly basis and is currently on the road to become a supporting System for SingularityNET’s innovation fund at DeepFunding and to support community-driven operations, starting with DeepFunding Reviewers.
The Treasury PBL
Our System has been proven to be a nice fitting solution and ecosystems definitely benefit from the stuff we built so far. However, it is not easy to integrate a system and to adapt it to its own needs and use cases. Therefore, we want to take all previously gained knowledge and experiences and wrap everything into a SWARM Treasury PBL, using the Andamio Platform to ensure that anyone is able to have easy access to an education format to use SWARM’s gained knowledge and experiences for their own needs.

[IMPACT] Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community.
Our System has been proven to be a nicey fitting solution and ecosystems definitely benefit from the stuff we built so far.

Therefore, we want to take all previously gained knowledge and experiences and wrap everything into a SWARM Treasury PBL, using the Andamio Platform to ensure that anyone is able to have easy access to an education format to use SWARM’s gained knowledge and experiences for their own needs. Projects using the PBL will have access and guidance on a more than 2 Years accumulated knowledge on SWARM Contribution and Treasury systems, enabling them to leverage our knowledge to innovate, enhance and further develop their projects with strong and 100% practice based knowledge.
[CAPABILITY & FEASIBILITY] What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?
Swarm has been active in Catalyst since its earliest days in early 2021. Since inception, we played a key role in building up the Catalyst Ecosystem and communities, initiated and supported the emergence of whole communities, projects and companies and have since then, grown our networks and engagements across multiple ecosystems where we play a key role in building up decentralised communities and ecosystems. Our Treasury System has been proven to be of great use to not only projects, but whole communities and ecosystems such as the SingularityNET Ambassadors program and the currently built Project DeepFunding, SingularityNET’s innovation fund. We have years of experience, and we know what we do and what we speak about. We are builders and craftsmen, deeply committed to building decentralised communities and ecosystems.
Having the Andamio platform as service provider also enables us to have direct access to the Andamio developer team, which will help us to ensure that the PBL will get all the needed eyes and hands on needed to have a top notch PBL up and running for everyone to benefit from. The Andamio is consist of seasoned Cardano Developers, building a all-stars team with a outstanding capacity on all things education and Cardano Blockchain development

Note:
If the price of ADA goes significantly down over the next few months until proposal approval and budget payouts, we will execute the proposal anyway.
If the price of ADA goes significantly up over the next few months until proposal approval and budget payouts,, we will be lucky and be able to reward proposal members in a higher range and forward leftovers to the Swarm Fund, level up the Pledge at the SWARM Pool and use funds to rewards SWARM Contributors in other activities.
[VALUE FOR MONEY] How does the cost of the project represent value for money for the Cardano ecosystem?
Looking at the previous success of SingularityNET using the SWARM Treasury system, we have a proven use case that our Treasury system is not only of great worth to smaller projects, but to whole communities and ecosystems. The Treasury system eases the onboarding process of newcomers to become engaged contributors and by default enhances onchain contributions, leading to a higher rate of Transactions on the Cardano Blockchain, feeding the Cardano Treasury and showcasing the Cardano Blockchain as an effective operating system to other ecosystems.
