### Summary

DAOhaus proposes to add a veBAL guage for the [HAUS/WETH 80/20 pool](https://app.balancer.fi/#/pool/0x17ddd9646a69c9445cd8a9f921d4cd93bf50d108000200000000000000000159).

### Protocol Description

[$HAUS](https:// daohaus.club/token) is the governance token for DAOhaus.

DAOhaus is a home for purpose-driven community DAOs. The DAOhaus platform is a human-friendly interface for communities to collectively deploy and manage [Moloch DAOs](https:// medium.com/raid-guild/moloch-evolved-v2-primer-25c9cdeab455). Over 2,000 DAOs have been summoned on the DAOhaus platform to date, with over 10,000 individual DAO members and millions of dollars worth of crypto assets secured in DAO treasuries.

#### Governance: UberHaus and Warcamp

DAOhaus is governed by [UberHaus](https://uberhaus.club/), a DAO whose members are themselves DAOs that use the DAOhaus platform. UberHaus’ powers include governing the non-circulating $HAUS supply.

Uberhaus delegates (appointed by each DAO according to their own processes) meet weekly to discuss Uberhaus business. Proposals are made with a 4 day voting period and a 14 day "grace period" during which member DAOs can exercise their right to  `ragequit`, i.e., exit the DAO with their full share of the treasury. This credible threat of exit creates a robust balance of power within the DAO and incentivizes seeking consensus whenever possible.

UberHaus funds one of its member DAOs – Warcamp – to build, maintain, and promote the DAOhaus platform. All core contributors to DAOhaus are members of, and receive compensation from, the Warcamp DAO. Warcamp members are admins of the DAOhaus Github repos.

* The [Warcamp DAO](https://app.daohaus.club/dao/0x64/0xef3d8c4fbb1860fceab16595db7e650cd5ad51c1) (on Gnosis Chain)
* The [UberHaus delegate multisig](https://gnosis-safe.io/app/eth:0x648DfEBbaf3638cDa047141dbF4AF3006e880f49) (on Ethereum; 6 of 11), via which a set of delegates from UberHaus and Warcamp manage UberHaus’ assets on Ethereum. Those assets include a portion of the HAUS/WETH Balancer pool liquidity.

#### $HAUS Price History

The majority of the $HAUS price history is viewable [on Coingecko](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/daohaus).

March 29, 2021, was the first time there was publicly available $HAUS liquidity. The initial price at that point was $8.88. There was an immediate runup just prior to Coingecko beginning to track the price.

### Motivation

The [HAUS/WETH 80/20 pool](https://app.balancer.fi/#/pool/0x17ddd9646a69c9445cd8a9f921d4cd93bf50d108000200000000000000000159) needs incentivization to help maintain and deepen its liquidity, which would have a number of important benefits, including the following.

* Enabling easier access to $HAUS for DAOs and individuals wishing to participate in DAOhaus governance activities
* Facilitating DAOhaus ecosystem grants denominated in $HAUS (by increasing the relative stability of the $HAUS price)
* Facilitating upcoming utilization of $HAUS as a coordination mechanism (beyond voting) within the DAOhaus ecosystem (also related to price stability)
* Supporting the utility and value of DAOhaus contributor compensation denominated in $HAUS

### Specifications

#### Governance:

See Governance section under Protocol Description above.

#### Oracles:

The DAOhaus platform does not rely on any external oracles.

#### Audits:

The most used smart contracts in the DAOhaus platform are instances of the [MolochV2.1 contract framework](https://github.com/HausDAO/Molochv2.1). V2.1 makes only a small adjustment to the [V2 contract](https://github.com/MolochVentures/moloch), which was audited by Consenys Diligence.

None of the contracts used within the DAOhaus platform are upgradable.

DAOhaus also makes use of Minion contracts, which allow a DAO to interact with external contracts and control external vaults. The predominant version is the [Safe Minion contract](https://github.com/HausDAO/MinionSummonerV2), which acts as middleware between the DAO contract and a Gnosis Safe, where all the funds are stored and external contract interactions are executed.

There have been no hacks of DAOhaus smart contracts to date.

#### Centralization vectors:

DAOhaus takes decentralization seriously and has made several organizational design choices to avoid concentrating power. As a result, the current state of DAOhaus is reasonably decentralized:

* None of the DAOhaus contracts are upgradable.
* Governance power over key on-chain assets is distributed across multiple entities, each of which is a DAO of its own. For example, DAOhaus core contributors (Warcamp) is a 30-person DAO with distributed governance powers.
* Non-circulating $HAUS is controlled by UberHaus, the DAO of DAOs. No DAO in UberHaus controls more than 10.5% of voting shares, and there is no path by which a DAO could gain additional voting shares without permission from a majority of peer DAOs.

The largest centralization vector is our front end hosting, over which a handful of developers have admin control. However, while an attack on the front end could manipulate what users see, the on-chain contracts (readable and writable via block explorers) remain the source of truth for all key user assets.

Our goal is to migrate our entire stack to decentralized infrastructure.

#### Market History:

The pool has been active since March 8, 2022.

* Current TVL: $2.1M
* Historical volume: $248k
