Who's this for?
DAOs
Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) are community-owned entities that leverage on-chain voting to make critical decisions. Holders of a DAO's Governance Token can actively contribute by proposing new ideas and participating in votes to influence the direction of the DAO. Agora DAOs, in particular, excel as a choice for community-owned treasuries. Here, community decisions are executed automatically through smart contracts, eliminating the need for trust in a group of administrators or multi-signature signatories to implement chosen actions. This ensures a transparent and trustless governance process for the community.
Defi Protocols
DeFi Protocols can leverage an Agora DAO to make important decisions like spending decisions, and protocol parameter updates. For example, a DeFi Protocol can use an Agora DAO to have a fee-switch that can be toggled on and off via community votes.
