🗳 Governance & DAO
(ONIONVerse Governance Model – Finalized)
The ONIONVerse DAO empowers ONION holders to shape the evolution of the ecosystem — through proposal-based governance and treasury control.
Staked ONION provides voting power across emissions, grants, integrations, and funding mechanisms. DAO participation is open to all stakers and NFT holders.
🏛 Governance Model
| Role | Description |
|---|---|
| 🧅 ONION Holders | Core voting body (1 token = 1 vote baseline) |
| 🔐 Stakers | Receive up to 3× vote weight (via lock tiers) |
| 🎫 Genesis NFT Holders | Gain bonus weight + early access to proposal rounds |
| 🧠 Proposal Submitters | Must stake minimum threshold to create proposals |
Genesis NFT and early contributor wallets may be granted proposal priority rights post-TGE via DAO vote.
🗳 Vote Types
| Proposal Category | Examples |
|---|---|
| 📦 Treasury Spending | Campaign budgets, grants, LP programs |
| 🪂 Airdrop Adjustments | Bonus criteria, claim deadlines, seasonal pool changes |
| 🔁 Emission Rules | Staking rewards rate, unlock speeds |
| 🧩 DAO Structure | Voting quorum, delegation, roles |
| 🤝 Partner Onboarding | Co-launch pools, SBT integrations |
🔐 DAO Treasury Access
- 10% of ONION supply is governed by the DAO

🧾 Voting Flow
- Proposal drafted using ONION DAO template
- Community discussion (72h pre-vote period)

🏛 ONION Foundation (Finland)

- Will transition into a multi-sig governed by community stakers post-DAO maturity
The ONIONVerse DAO isn’t just about voting — it’s about long-term accountability. With every staked token, you gain power to shape how rewards flow, partnerships are formed, and real coordination happens on-chain.
