Initial & Forward-Looking Governance Plan for the Exact Agent System
1. Executive Summary
This document provides an initial governance framework and forward-looking plan for an Exact Agent system built around the $EXACT token. It is designed to balance simplicity in early stages with a scalable roadmap for more sophisticated models of decision-making. All aspects described herein are subject to change based on community feedback and DAO evolution.
2. Phase 1: Launch and Governance Setup
2.1 Voting Mechanics
- 1:1 Voting:
Every token holderâs voting power equals the number of $EXACT tokens they hold. For example, holding 500,000 tokens translates to 500,000 votes. - Simple Majority Requirement:
A 50% + 1 threshold (of the tokens cast) is necessary for a proposal to pass, reflecting a standard âmajority rulesâ system. This ensures a transparent and inclusive approach in the early stages.
2.2 Proposal Eligibility
- 10,000,000 $EXACT Minimum:
Wallets or addresses must hold at least 10,000,000 $EXACT to submit governance proposals on-chain. This mechanism helps filter spam and encourages proposals from committed holders.
2.3 Treasury & Operations Oversight
- Treasury Votes:
Major allocations (e.g., grants, liquidity provisioning, partnership funding) require a DAO-wide vote with a simple majority. - Operational Parameters:
Certain core operational decisionsâlike fee structures or contract upgradesâwill also go through DAO voting. - Agentic AI âBoard of Directorsâ:
A specialized AI system will serve in an advisory and administrative capacity, automatically collating data, analyzing community sentiment, and ensuring proposals meet certain baseline criteria before proceeding to a vote.
2.4 Purpose of This Structure
- Fast Execution, Simple Governance:
In the initial rollout, the emphasis is on ease-of-use and rapid iteration. - Trust & Transparency:
By requiring a simple majority, the DAO establishes a democratic ethos. - Prevention of Proposal Floods:
The 10 million $EXACT threshold acts as a gate against frivolous or malicious proposals.
3. Agentic AI as Board of Directors
3.1 Role and Responsibilities
- Proposal Screening:
The AI checks each submitted proposalâs format and feasibility (e.g., ensuring it doesnât contain malicious contract calls, or is not an obvious duplicate). - Advisory Insights:
Before proposals go live, the AI compiles a risk assessment and impact analysisâhighlighting potential financial or technical implications. - Automated Governance Toolkit:
- Summarizes proposals for clarity.
- Sends notifications to token holders.
- Monitors vote tallies, announces results, and triggers on-chain execution (if a proposal passes).
3.2 AI Development
- Progressive Learning:
Initial capabilities will be relatively constrained (data aggregation, automated reporting). Over time, the AI can incorporate machine learning and agent-based logic for more sophisticated decision support. - Community Feedback:
Updates to the AIâs functionality or authority will require DAO approval, ensuring the community maintains ultimate control.
4. Forward-Looking Governance Plan
4.1 Phase 2: Delegated Governance
- Delegation Model:
Introduce delegation options, allowing smaller holders to delegate voting power to representatives or domain experts. - Working Groups:
Form specialized committees (e.g., tech, marketing, tokenomics) that propose solutions and coordinate with the broader DAO for final approvals.
4.2 Dynamic Quorum and Time-Lock
- Dynamic Quorum:
As the DAO membership grows, the system might adopt variable quorum requirements (e.g., a sliding scale that increases for high-impact proposals). - Time-Locks:
Implement mandatory delays (e.g., 48â72 hours) between a successful vote and on-chain execution, ensuring participants can respond to unexpected changes.
4.3 AI-Enhanced Governance
- Advanced Decision Analytics:
The board-level AI could leverage on-chain metrics, off-chain data (e.g., market signals), and historical vote outcomes to provide predictive or simulation-based guidance. - Automated Conflict Resolution:
Over time, the AI might help facilitate dispute resolution or identify contradictory proposals.
4.4 Governance Token Evolution
- Additional Utility:
Discussions may explore layering in new featuresâlike staking-based governance or reputation scoring, which might refine a userâs influence or eligibility to propose. - Amendability:
Any changes to the token contract or governance model itself will require a DAO referendum, ensuring that the system remains fully community-driven.
5. Summary and Conclusion
- Phase 1 Governance
- 1:1 vote weighting
- 50%+1 simple majority
- Proposal Threshold of 10 million $EXACT
- Agentic AI as a âBoard of Directorsâ providing guidance and administrative oversight
- Forward-Looking Plan
- Introduction of delegated governance, dynamic quorum, time-locks, and more advanced AI-driven capabilities.
- The system remains flexible, and all major upgrades or modifications will be approved by the DAO via transparent votes.
In essence, this roadmap aims to streamline early decision-making while future-proofing the DAO for scale and complexity. The guiding philosophy is that a community-driven token should remain adaptable, democratic, and technologically forwardâwith Agentic AI serving as both a facilitator and advisor, rather than an all-powerful authority.
Disclaimer:
This outline is a draft and subject to change. Participants and stakeholders should regularly review official DAO documentation and proposals for up-to-date governance details. As with any Web3 project, risks and uncertainties (market, regulatory, technical) may arise, requiring flexibility and community consensus for adaptation.
