DAO Voting System
The DeSciAi platform incorporates a robust DAO voting process to ensure transparent, efficient, and community-driven governance. This process includes token-weighted decision-making, a system of delegates, specialized legal committees, and safeguards for fair participation.
1. Role of Delegates
Delegates serve as pivotal agents in governance, consolidating voting power and ensuring informed and active decision-making.
Eligibility:
Delegates for the Platform DAO must hold a minimum amount of DSA tokens.
Delegates for Project DAOs must hold a minimum amount of PRT tokens.
Selection: Delegates are chosen through token-weighted community voting, ensuring that their selection reflects the community’s trust.
Incentives:
Delegates earn rewards from platform or project taxes proportional to their voting power and token holdings.
Active participation in governance enhances a delegate’s reputation, increasing their future rewards and credibility.
2. Human Entity Committee (HEC)
The HEC is a specialized body of token holders tasked with managing jurisdiction-specific legal and administrative responsibilities.
Responsibilities:
Legal Representation: Acts on behalf of the DAO for intellectual property registration, dispute resolution, and compliance.
Contract Management: Ensures on-chain contracts adhere to jurisdictional laws.
Regulatory Compliance: Manages KYC, tax obligations, and liability issues.
Oversight:
All HEC actions require DAO approval, ensuring transparency and alignment with community goals.
Incentives:
HEC members are rewarded from platform or project reward pools, with payments determined by their contribution and reputation scores.
3. Checks and Balances in Governance
The governance framework incorporates measures to prevent corruption, resolve disputes, and adapt to evolving needs.
Anti-Corruption Safeguards:
Reputation System: Delegates, SMEs, and HEC members maintain reputation scores, ensuring decisions are merit-based and transparent.
Audit Trails: All actions and decisions are immutably recorded on-chain, allowing the community to audit governance processes.
Dispute Resolution:
The HEC mediates disputes as a neutral intermediary.
If unresolved, disputes can escalate to a community arbitration vote, enabling token holders to decide the outcome.
Evolution of Governance: The governance structure is designed to be adaptive, with DAO votes enabling:
Introduction of new roles.
Modifications to voting mechanisms.
Adjustments for regulatory and operational challenges.
4. Governance in Action
Voting Mechanisms:
Token holders can vote directly or delegate their voting power to trusted representatives.
Votes are weighted based on the number of tokens held or delegated.
Transparency and Accountability:
All voting results, HEC actions, and delegate decisions are available on-chain for real-time tracking and auditing by the community.
Community Rewards:
Active participation in governance, whether through direct voting, delegation, or HEC contributions, leads to tangible incentives, fostering sustained engagement.
By integrating these mechanisms, the DeSciAi DAO ensures that all stakeholders—researchers, token holders, and external collaborators—have a fair, transparent, and efficient way to participate in shaping the platform and its projects.
