An easy NO. 60K USD is way too high for someone staying at Southeast Asia and Splinterlands social media management, especially on Twitter was poor..There's little to no promotions the past few years, especially during the bull market! Whoever's in charge only used it more like an info and announcements dump! Absolutely no promotions to bring in new players into the ecosystem!
With the rise of DEXes, CEX listing outside the top few CEXs are pretty much useless. There's no guarantee one person can get it unless it's also paid by the DAO!
Apart from the initial partnership with Pancakeswap for SPS, most partnerships have flopped since then and always tried to extract from the existing Splinterlands community.
How can the DAO hire someone yet report to the team?
Does he even have a valid working visa at the moment?
We are deep in the bear market, recession coming, people lost jobs and now we want to pay a guy "appropriately"?
Nothing personal against Clayboyn.
