Structure of DAOSquare community
Introduction
Every community should have its purpose and goals. For the DAOSquare community, the community is a place to bring together talent and support innovation, and the goal is to build a community-based innovation base. This is an important component of the DAOSquare incubator (other components include VentureDAO, incubator technology infrastructure, etc.).
- For entrepreneurs, they can find like-minded people here to start their first steps in business.
- For talented people, they can gather here to support entrepreneurs or create value together.
- For those who share common interests in certain fields, they can find interesting friends here to explore and share together.
- For everyone, they can be angel investors in those great projects, supporting them to grow and reap value from them.
A community is a group of people with shared values, where people work together based on a consensus of ideas, values, culture, and interests. We built the initial community structure based on the goals and objectives of DAOSquare.
The community is made up of four groups of people:interestor, community members (Passport holders), Cafeteria members, and Matrix members.
- Interestor. Only announcements can be viewed for public information about DAOSquare.
- Community Member. Have community rights and interests, including participation in investments, all community guilds, community events, community benefits, etc.
- Cafeteria. Participate in DAOSquare community governance.
- Matrix. Participate in building DAOSquare as a full-time person.
We automatically assign and update members’ entitlements through NFTs representing different roles, and anyone can earn the corresponding role NFTs by contributing autonomously.

Framework of DAOSquare community governance
The goal of DAOSquare is to eventually achieve full community-based governance, including the evolution of the infrastructure, the operation of VentureDAO, and the operation of the community. However, it requires a gradual process that relies primarily on the maturation of two conditions.
- The system enters a healthy self-running state. Whether it’s the evolution of the infrastructure or the operation of VentureDAO, until it gets into a healthy self-running state, the effective and robust way to do this is to leave the build tasks to the experts. Once it gets into a healthy operational state, the community is better able to govern the product and mechanism based on real consensus, which is what most successful projects do, such as Gitcoin, ENS, Uniswap, and others.
- Self-governance and automation of communities complete the break-in period. Before we can fully implement community-based governance, we need to gradually build community mechanisms and practice them a lot, which we call the break-in period.
However, achieving both of these goals requires early community involvement.
- Give counsel suggest and contribute to the construction of DAOSquare together
- Practicing community-based governance and accumulating experience in community governance
We, therefore, divide the scope of community governance in DAOSquare at this stage into two categories:
- Category 1: Voting results must be implemented
- Category 2: Expressing suggestions to Matrix
Governance Scope
Category I: Voting results must be implemented, including
- Upgrading of community identity mechanism, including modifications, additions, and deletions
- Upgrading of community operation mechanism, including modifications, additions, and deletions
- Upgrading of community activities, including modifications, additions, and deletions
- Community publicity and promotion suggestions
- Management of community guild, including initiation, affairs management, personnel management
- Management of community funds, including grant using and fundraising
- Management of community products, including forums, Snapshot voting space
- Upgrading of community reward mechanism, including modification, addition, and deletion
- Upgrading of community governance mechanisms and processes, including modifications, additions, and deletions
- Upgrading of governance scope, including modifications, additions, and deletions
Category 2: Expression of proposals to Matrix. Proposals in this scope express a number of constructive suggestions from the community on the build process of products such as DAOSquare technology infrastructure, VentureDAO, etc. These suggestions will need to be further communicated with Matrix eventually to reach an implementable consensus, including
- Product Optimization Suggestions
- Product Functionality Suggestions
- Product mechanism suggestions
Proposal Workflow
This governance process applies to the “Voting results must be implemented” section.
Typto has submitted a DAOSquare Community Proposal Framework (DCP0: The DAOSquare Community Proposal Framework ) to the community. This is the executive guidance for DAOSquare governance, and the community can of course initiate proposals to modify and upgrade this executive guidance.
Step1: Submit a proposal in forum
- Everyone can submit a DCP in DAOSquare forum (Governance — DAOSquare 1).
- Share your proposal in Discord #TownHall channel and @Cafeteria.
- 3 days of discussion for a proposal and then it will be put into the queue for the next step.
Note: Queue is a waiting pool for execution. Every execution period only handles one proposal, so all proposals need to wait for the previous proposal to leave the execution period.
Step2: Meetings organized by Cafeteria
- Cafeteria organizes one or more calls to discuss the proposals in 3days when the proposal is into the execution period.
- The meeting call is in #CafeCall channel in Discord, and it’s open for all community members.
- If there are modifications suggestions after the calls, Cafeteria can suggest applicants modify it and re-submit. If not, will be in the queue for the next step.
Step3: Vote on proposal on-chain
- Cafeteria submits the proposal on Snapshot.
- Members who hold the Cafeteria NFT can vote on the proposal.
- The voting period is 2 days.
Step4: Bulletin in community
- When the voting is done, Cafeteria needs to note results in proposals on the forum via a comment.
- Matrix posts the announcement on Discord and Twitter.
