WEIGHTED type DAOs operate a bit differently than the other DAO types, because Weighted DAOs have 2 Consensus Thresholds that must be satisfied in order for a proposal to pass.
In a Weighted DAO, the thresholds of Weight and Members must both be satisfied for a proposal to reach consensus (See below)
Look at the DAO above, we see 2 thresholds for this DAO (Weight and Members)-
63% of the Swarms Weight must vote to pass a proposal
65% of the Swarms members must vote to pass a proposal
In order to reach consensus in a WEIGHTED type DAO both of these requirements must be met.
This means in a Weighted DAO, if both the WEIGHT and MEMBERS thresholds are not reached, the proposal will not pass.
Weighted DAOs have a few extra proposal actions they can make due having 2 thresholds.
First, Weighted DAOs can propose to assign a Vault a Deposit Weight- Whenever someone deposits tokens into the Vault, they gain 1 deposit weight for every 1 token they deposit. This weight can also be adjusted when creating the proposal.
Second, Weighted DAOs can also propose the Adjust Required-Voters Threshold action- Which allows a Weighted DAO to adjust how many MEMBERS are required to vote in order to reach consensus.
Third, A Weighted DAOs Adjust Consensus Threshold action adjusts how much WEIGHT is required to vote for a proposition in order to reach consensus.
