RoyaltyDAO

A 1% royalty is collected on all trades, and sent to a community-operated treasury. The treasury is controlled by RoyaltyDAO, a fork of the NounsDAO, which implements Compound-style on-chain voting using Loot balances. Rather than trying to be "The DAO", this is simply "a DAO", with the sole purpose of collecting and allocating royalties.

The DAO contract contains a small modification, to account for the fact that the Loot contract does not implement check-pointed balances. In order to prevent voting twice with the same tokens, each vote is tied to a particular token id. The main downside of this technique is that it is less efficient for large token holders to vote (requires multiple transactions), but the flipside is that this helps to democratize voting by taxing whales.

Instead, each vote is tied to a particular

Project Structure and Setup

The project is still in active development, which means that things might change quickly (eg. structure, configuration). Proceed with caution.

This repository is structured as a Yarn 2 monorepo, consisting of the following packages:

  • web: web client
  • docs: API and SDK documentation (WIP)
  • sdk: SDK for exchange interactions

Since this project is set up as a Yarn 2 monorepo, make sure to always use yarn instead of npm, otherwise some things might not work properly.

In the repository's root directory, run yarn to install all dependencies across all monorepo's packages. Afterwards, specific package commands should be run in the corresponding package directory.

The global commands yarn deps:check and yarn deps:update will help to maintain the same versions across the entire monorepo. After running yarn deps:update, a yarn install is required. To prevent having duplicates in the yarn.lock, you can run yarn dedupe --check and yarn dedupe to apply deduplication.
