Augur DAO

Augur DAO is a modified version of Governor Alpha designed to serve as a DAO for the Augur Project. While it is intended to use Augur's Reputation Token as its governance token, any ERC20 token will work equally well.

Contracts

AugurDAO and GuardianDAO

The AugurDAO contract is a modified version of Compound's GovernorAlpha contract. AugurDAO has extra functions to interact with a second "guardian" DAO. The GuardianDAO contract is a GovernorAlpha contract which is unmodified except for changes to constants.

The guardian DAO uses a non-transferable token for voting, which can be minted and burned by the Augur DAO. The guardian DAO "guards" the Augur DAO in the sense that it can:

1. Vote to cancel proposals on Augur DAO.
2. Vote to change the governance token of the Augur DAO. This is intended to be used to update the Reputation Token wrapper address in the event of an Augur universe fork.

Note: AugurDAO is intended to receive funds gradually over time, using a mechanism such as OpenZeppelin's VestingWallet.

WrappedReputationToken

Wraps an Augur Reputation Token (or another ERC20 token) so that it has the functionality expected by AugurDAO.

NonTransferableToken

A non-transferable ERC20 token intended for use as a governance token for AugurDAO. The NonTransferableToken contract implements special mint and burn functions that can only be called by the canMintAndBurn address, which is set during initialization. In the context of AugurDAO, canMintAndBurn should be the address of the AugurDAO contract.

Tests

Tests are in the test/ directory and can be run using npm test.
