The following is an assessment of the on-chain treasuries for Polkadot and Kusama, and aims to provide thoughts and encouragement to the community on it’s improvement.

Would appreciate feedback 🙏



1. Polkadot and Kusama are now on-chain treasury models and are expected to use these funds to finance their growth in the future. 
2. The funds currently held in the treasury are placed in a myriad of assets, the largest of which being DOT and KSM. 
3. The diversity of assets allows for certain advantages and protects the treasury from potential bad actors. 
4. Since these treasuries are funded by user contributions, there has been a discussion around increasing transparency regarding how these funds are used and managed. 
5. Furthermore, the community has discussed minimizing value leakage from these treasuries while maintaining financial prudence. 
6. Finally,the community is slowly moving forward with plans to use modules and external auditing to adhere to industry standards.
