Hi @lschoenl
Thanks for your proposal.
The expenditure of CentrifugeDAO treasury funds needs to directly benefit Centrifuge and the arguments for your research project do not in my opinion stack up towards being a worthwhile investment at this moment in time.
It’s nice to have academic papers on tokenization, but as we are in a growth phase, spending €10K on academic studies is very unlikely to correlate to investment in the protocol.
Please have a look at our Goals and Themes for Funding Priorities where you will see an overview and guide for how Treasury Funds should be allocated.
However, my opinion is just an opinion, and if you disagree, feel free to proceed.
Regards
Kate
