## Impact Statement

### Contribution Description

PublicHAUS, the governing framework of the DAOhaus ecosystem and protocol, has been a linchpin in fostering decentralized governance and management of public goods. Its arsenal of tools, including the DAOhaus SDK and development libraries, has streamlined the process of summoning and managing Moloch DAOs for numerous developers and organizations.

The technical infrastructure, encapsulated in the DAOhaus Monorepo structured with Nx, facilitates collaborative development. It comprises:

- **Core Applications**: The Admin App and Summoner App are crucial for interacting with DAOs.
- **Utility Libraries**: These provide common functions and utilities.
- **Data Libraries**: They simplify data fetching and contract interactions by wrapping contracts and subgraphs.
- **UI Component Library**: This offers a robust set of UI components for constructing user-friendly interfaces.

A hallmark of community engagement is the **Haus Party: 12 Days of DAOcember** event, held from December 5th to 16th, 2022. This event showcased a plethora of sessions, panels, and discussions revolving around various aspects of DAOs and the DAOhaus protocol. The community delved into topics like reputation, access/permissions, workstream management, on/off-chain DAOs, and explored the DAOhaus front-end stack, v3 contract architecture, Zodiac & Shamans, and RADDAD (Rapid Application Development & DAO Application Development).

Moreover, PublicHAUS has hosted numerous Community Calls on Discord, delving into a wide array of topics affecting DAOs and the Web 3 space, nurturing a culture of open discussion and collective problem-solving.

## Grants and Funding

Previously DAOHaus has raised funds by:

- Community Contribution Event, which raised 2M, which was used for the development of the V3 protocol.
- 80 Eth Grant from Moloch DAO, which was used to pay for audits of the V3 Moloch DAO contracts.
- 50K USD from The Graph for Sub-Graph fees.

Please note: DAOhaus does have a token with some liquidity on Optimism. [Haus-WETH Pool](https://velodrome.finance/liquidity?filter=default&query=haus) This LP does not benefit Public HAUS financially. We use the HAUS token to stake into the Public HAUS DAO, thereby behaving as a governance token enabling proportional voting weight to the amount staked.
