5) Pick which type of DAO you will be creating.

There are 4 different types of DAOs you can create at Swarms.Finance, each one is a unique form of organization.

Equal

  • Every member has the same voting rights and voting power as any other member.

  • Consensus is achieved when enough people vote in favor of a proposition.

Use case example: A group of developers create a new DeFi project, everyone has equal share of the new project and the newly founded team wishes to manage their funds together and vote over transfers and withdraws.

Weighted

  • Whoever deposits the most assets, gains the most voting power, allowing one member to have more 'WEIGHT' than another member if they have deposited more assets into the Swarm.

  • Deposit Weights are voted upon and the DAO can be set up to where specific token deposits give more 'WEIGHT' than others.

  • All members can create proposals and vote over proposals.

  • Consensus is achieved when enough people AND enough WEIGHT vote in favor of a proposition.

Use case example: A group of investors, each with various assets, form a DAO in order to vote over trades and distribution of profits.

Controlled

  • The Swarm Creator may add or remove members at any time.

  • The Swarm Creator must decide who can create Proposals - Only the Swarm Creator, and the members given permission by the Swarm Creator, can create proposals in a CONTROLLED Swarm.

  • All members can vote and have equal voting power (But not all members can create proposals).

  • Consensus is achieved when enough people vote in favor of a proposition.

Use case example: A teacher creates a DAO where students are DAO members and must vote over the teacher's proposals- Vote where the next class field trip will be!

Custom

  • Organizational Roles are created and granted permissions- Decide which roles can create which types of proposals, and which roles can vote over which types of proposals.

  • Create custom actions and decide which roles can propose and vote over those custom actions.

  • Consensus is achieved when enough people vote in favor of a proposition.

Use case example: A company creates a DAO where only the Managers can create proposals to "Hire" new employees, while all other members cannot.

Pick a DAO type according to which type of DAO you will be creating. The rules enforced by each DAO type cannot be changed once you create your DAO.

In a Swarm represents a pure and equal democracy where any member may create proposals, and vote over proposals.

In a Swarm, members gain voting power as they make deposits into the Swarm.

In a Swarm, the Creator of the Swarm has special permissions and is always in ultimate control of the Swarm.

In a Swarm, a hierarchy of custom member Roles is established to where only certain roles can perform certain actions.
