Creating a Proposal

Proposals are the primary mechanism through which decisions are made on ArchDAO. They define specific actions that affect a project’s direction, treasury, or token economics. Anyone may create a proposal for a project.

​
What Proposals Can Do

Proposals may be used to:
  • Spend USDC from the project treasury
  • Issue new tokens
  • Update token metadata
  • Increase or decrease liquidity provided by the project’s treasury
Each proposal must define a clear and discrete action that can be evaluated by the market.

​
Going Live

Once a proposal is created, it does not immediately become active. To go live, token holders must stake tokens in support of the proposal. By default, a proposal requires 50,000,000 tokens to be staked before it becomes active. Staking exists solely to prevent spam and low-quality proposals. Staked tokens are not locked and are not subject to slashing. Only one proposal may be live at any given time.
