Creator playbook

Running a DAO people want to hold to the close

Your token's floor is its treasury. The playbook is simple: be clear about the plan, report often, and make the treasury grow.

1

Write a request worth approving

Say what the DAO funds, who the team is (with links), why the close date you picked makes sense, and how much you need. Vague or hype-only requests get rejected with a note telling you what to fix.

2

Pick the launch type

Party round when you have a community ready to commit at one price: the treasury starts at almost half the raise. Bonding curve Soon (coming soon) will suit open price discovery from zero; for now every DAO launches with a party round.

3

Commit first, then open it up

In a party round you commit at least 5% of the goal before anyone else can. Those tokens are locked until close, so your incentives match your holders'. Once the raise fills it closes to new commits and launches automatically 24 hours later; there's nothing for you to click.

4

Use Investor relations

Post updates on the DAO page: what shipped, how the treasury is growing, what's next. Holders see your Creator badge and everyone's holding next to their posts.

5

Earn while it trades

You earn 0.25% of all trading volume, claimable any time, plus a carry on treasury growth at close. You pay nothing up front, but a holder vote to close early (Yes over No, with at least 50% of eligible supply voting) forfeits your locked tokens to the other holders, so keep them informed. The same rule lets holders replace you as manager.
