🟣Set Vault Deposit Weight (Weighted)

Set a Vaults Deposit Weight in a Weighted DAO

This Feature is only available in WEIGHTED type DAOs

Weighted Type DAO's use Weight as a method to determine if consensus is reached.

As such, a Weighted DAO has the ability to set and adjust deposit weights to each of it's Vaults- Once a Deposit Weight is applied to a vault, from that point on whenever someone deposits tokens into the Vault they will gain the Deposit Weight.

  • For example, if a Vault has a deposit weight of 3.0, and a Swarm member deposits 1 token into the vault, they will gain 3.0 Weight.

  • If a Vault has a deposit weight of 3.0 and a Swarm member deposits 2 tokens into the vault, the member will gain 6.0 Weight.

This "Weight" is then used whenever that member votes.

Swarm members with the most 'Weight' have more voting power than the Swarm members with less 'Weight'.

Weight is what allows DAOs to be crafted at Swarms.Finance where one person may have more control over the DAO simply because they have participated and deposited more tokens into the DAO.

How to Set Deposit Weight of a Controlled DAO's Vault

Deposit Weight does not get applied retro-actively- Setting a Deposit Weight on a Vault does not retro-actively apply weight to members who have previously deposited into the Vault.
