--- tags: DAOstillery --- ### [Gitcoin Canon DAO Template](https://hackmd.io/@TravisWyche/CanonDAOtemplate) # Canon DAO Overview ### Opportunity for Conversation - Quadratic funding calculation to do matching for each of the Yeeters - Does the Quadratic Calculation and Yeets into each yeeter based on that calculation - Quadratic mechanism is the funding mechanism between Captains DAO and the individual yeeters ## Beyond the Capital Flow ### Cultural Alignment Flows to Canon & Exit Rights flow to Individual Contributors through the Yeeters - Individual contributors retaining Accredation & Attribution - Canonical Contribution - What is a viable contribution but will not be passed as Canon - Is it Canon that get's incentivized only, or are there a spectrum of contributions that get valued **Quadratic Mechanism for Distributing the Value Makes sense** #### Contributor Flow - How are the Captains DAO & Yeeter Connected - Proposal in the Yeeter - Captains DAO gets to decide whether or not the proposal is Canon (determining Value) - CC0 (creating space for remixing & reusing canon in interesting ways where economic value flows back to the canon) - Increased attention e.g increased economic activity around the canon (economic royalties flowing back to the canon creators) - Once passed, that piece becomes Canon - How does Value flow back to the contributor - What might be built into that? - NFT wrapped compensation? - Streaming? - NFT Royalties #### Incentive Mechanisms - Attribution & Compensation are working - We want to create a change to the Canonical asset - governance structure to be able to ratify that change - Transference of the token/symbol to flow back to the original contributor and new contributor at an adjusted level - how does that distribution flow - Don't have zero-sum replacement mechanisms - let the market decide - Allow the community to signal support and the valuation of the canon to be flexible - NFT serves as a reciept for contribution & attribution - Harberger Tax - DAOgroni style transmutations - how Moloch can serve - Moloch v3 and NFTs used as membership - How Gitcoin is using a DEGEN NFT model, taking the profits from that and putting them toward regenerative public goods - Regen Native NFT (something that can alter the incentive - additive to the greenpill campaign) - Baking in a pledge to a certain Public Good to signal support and follow up with **Making the mechanism approachable for the governerds - helping contributors to know *how* & *why* this is significant** - What is the process for this project to get funded? #### Specific Tailoring to Gitcoins Setup - Using the Devrel setup within DAOhaus to support contributors in Gitcoin flowing into a Gitcoin branded yeeter - Compensation could be directly related to the degree that DAOhaus has to help hand-holding ### Value Props for DAOhaus ##### The Positive Feedback Loop & Pattern for DH <> GC - Recognition, Respect, & Visibility associated with Gitcoin doing this with the help of DAOhaus - Communication of Community developer capabilities using DAOhaus - Monetary & Economic flow back in our direction #### Phase 1 - Articulate High Level for Universe Guide itself
