# Gmoot DAO Working Spec Proposal DAO governance ideas: - Stake bags for rewards ([@TheDaveGmoot](https://discord.com/channels/885674458755510272/890648497685135371/890652494601027624)) - Hierarchical DAO, perhaps clans are sub-orgs ([@gimple](https://discord.com/channels/885674458755510272/890648497685135371/890649118748311603)) - Grape protocol ([@ThotPocket](https://discord.com/channels/885674458755510272/890648497685135371/890753867229323266)) - Time phase voting ([@clayton](https://discord.com/channels/885674458755510272/890648497685135371/891126636907470888)) - Governance token for stake ([@Kroo](https://discord.com/channels/885674458755510272/890648497685135371/891227060922617877)) - Multi-input involvement score, perhaps using number of bags, age of bags with current owner, Discord activity as inputs ([@Big Boys NYC](https://discord.com/channels/885674458755510272/890648497685135371/891396655562260560)) - Award gov tokens based on interaction ([@b0mple](https://discord.com/channels/885674458755510272/890648497685135371/891693005755535391)) - [Bonfida token vesting](https://github.com/Bonfida/token-vesting) ([@Conor](https://twitter.com/messages/1441078395736002560)) My thoughts: - KISS – keep it simple, stupid. start with the most basic DAO and build up. - Use the [SPL DAO](https://github.com/solana-labs/solana-program-library/tree/master/governance) at least as a starting point. - Appoint a few gmoots as the "council" per SPL docs, whose purpose is to bootstrap the DAO for the broader community. - Council will finalize logic and economics into contracts, then release to the community. - Voting must be based on stake or non-pseudonymous identity. Anything else can be gamed. Please provide counterexamples if I'm incorrect here. - [Grape community-first manifesto](https://github.com/metacartel/mission/blob/master/community-first-manifesto.md) - Consider applying for [Hiro LaunchDAO](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeiWtue-A1GjMhxwPjo7oApY76O2GPIg61W19UJbqMz75EifA/viewform?pli=1) Action items: - [ ] Setup [Grape Discord access](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe97GpvQC-tVe4Jobb6raKkd3miCGCrIFYCBXTYb8dN-odabw/viewform) - [ ] Identify devs and council members - [ ] Create and run a test DAO with council - [ ] Finalize v0 spec for real DAO, perhaps using the test DAO - [ ] Implement real DAO with existing council members - [ ] Release to community - [ ] ... - [ ] gmoot!
