**Voters have become increasingly cautious**, making it harder for projects to gain approval for their proposals. Our project introduces a **clawback mechanism** to *significantly reduce risks to the Polkadot Treasury*. By implementing this safeguard, we aim to *lower financial exposure* and provide voters with *peace of mind* to confidently approve funding for impactful projects.

With our innovative tool, a group of **decentralized treasury guardians** is *incentivized to oversee scheduled payouts* and intervene when necessary to *protect the Treasury’s integrity*.

**Key features of our proposal**:

* *No upfront payments* are requested.
* All payouts are *tied to milestone delivery*, with sufficient time for the community to *review, delay, or cancel* disbursements if needed to ensure accountability on our behalf.

We are *passionate about leading the charge* to **de-risk the Treasury**, enhance its *efficiency*, and *better align the interests of token holders and proposers*. We eagerly look forward to *collaborating with the Polkadot community* and new + existing ecosystem teams to achieve these goals.
