DAO: your voice, on-chain and fair

The DAO is how the community steers MPRO Lab — with votes that carry real weight. If you hold a licence or MPRO, you already hold voting power. The /dao page is where proposals live: browse, read, vote.

Your voting power

Voting power blends both ways of committing to the network:

• every licence carries a weight (an iNODE carries the full weight, a ggNODE proportionally less),
• every 200,000 MPRO in your wallet carries the same weight as one iNODE.

Both are counted from a snapshot taken when the proposal is published, so nobody can shuffle tokens mid-vote to game the result. The blend ratios are themselves DAO parameters — the community can retune them by vote.

Proposals

Anyone with at least one iNODE licence or 200,000 MPRO at the snapshot can publish a proposal. Proposals are written in English, in Markdown, and the vote runs for five days — short on purpose.

What it takes to pass

Three things, and the first is the one that matters most:

• at least 7 different licence-holding wallets must vote. Not a share of anybody's holdings — seven separate people. A single large holder cannot decide anything alone, however much they hold;
• at least 1% of all voting power must be behind the vote, so a handful of near-empty wallets cannot decide either;
• more Yes than No. Abstain counts as taking part and does not push the result either way.

The headcount is deliberate. Most licences are held by people who have not opened the app in months, so a rule written as "a percentage of everyone" would mean nothing could ever pass. Counting people instead of percentages asks for something reachable — and because every voter needs a licence, it cannot be faked cheaply.

Voting as a clan

If you belong to a clan, your clan votes first, on the proposal page. The clan takes the position most of its voting members chose, and then the power of the members who voted counts double in the final tally.

Three conditions, all of them about turning up:

• at least half the clan must vote — below that there is no multiplier at all;
• only members who actually voted are doubled. Somebody who did not take part adds nothing;
• a tie is no position. A clan that could not agree does not speak with one voice.

The multiplier decides who wins, never whether enough people showed up — it is not counted toward the seven voters or the 1%. A clan cannot carry a proposal on its own.

What the DAO governs

Fees and thresholds across the platform are parameters, and the parameters answer to the vote: the distribution pool and credit rates, the token's burn fee, the marketplace fee, the voting weights themselves. Today's vote shapes tomorrow's rules — meta-governance is the point.

If you are new to DAOs: welcome. Ask questions, disagree in good faith, and vote your truth.
