The ONIONVerse DAO is the decentralized engine behind ONTON — empowering token holders and contributors to steer ecosystem development, manage incentives, and oversee treasury flows.
🏛 Governance Model
| Role | Function |
|---|---|
| ONION Holders | Core voters (1 token = 1 vote baseline) |
| Stakers | Gain up to 3× vote weight via staking tiers |
| Genesis NFT Holders | Receive bonus voting power + early access to proposals |
| Proposal Submitters | Must stake minimum threshold to submit a proposal |
Genesis wallets and verified contributors may be granted proposal rights via DAO vote.
🗳 Vote Types
Proposal Categories:
- 📦 Treasury Spending: Grants, campaigns, liquidity provisioning
- 🪂 Airdrop Programs: Adjust rules, timing, and multipliers
- 🔁 Emission Policies: Staking yields, unlock pacing
- 🧩 Governance Rules: Role definitions, quorum updates, delegation
- 🤝 Partner Onboarding: Collab incentives, launch support, and co-hosting pools
💰 DAO Treasury
- 10% of ONION Supply reserved for DAO-managed spending
- Treasury held in multi-sig wallet (Foundation + Staker Reps)
- Funds cannot move without on-chain vote approval
📥 Proposal Flow
- Proposal drafted using DAO template
- 72h community discussion in public forum

🧱 Role of the ONION Foundation (Finland)

The DAO turns verified participation into verifiable power — aligning action, identity, and control.
