[RFC] Delegate Compensation Program for Compound

This proposal appears to be specifically designed for a select group of delegates who were granted COMP tokens from the treasury under the premise of incentivizing governance participation. However, this arrangement creates a situation where only these delegates (benefiting from a subsidized allocation of COMP) would receive compensation for voting using tokens they did not acquire through standard means.

When StableLabs initially proposed the Delegate Race Application, there was no disclosure of fees or compensation tied to voting activity. The current proposal would effectively allow delegates awarded COMP tokens at no cost to monetize their voting power derived from this subsidy. This dynamic raises ethical concerns, as it could be construed as a misappropriation of the DAO’s resources for personal gain.
