Description

Summary

We propose raising 100 ETH through Daos.world to reestablish Energy's treasury and migrate its operations to Base L2. This migration builds on the intentions outlined in Proposal 38 and includes transitioning to token-based governance model. Our aim is to revitalize community participation, fund new artistic initiatives, and expand visibility across the Superchain ecosystem.

About Energy DAO

ENERGY is a global creative grants collective founded on August 8, 2023, by 13 members of the Zora community. Its mission is to publicly fund the arts while empowering artist autonomy and fostering experimentation onchain. The DAO has supported creators and collectives across the U.S., Canada, South America, and Europe, with works showcased at institutions like Sotheby’s and the National Finnish Museum. Energy sponsors year-round programming including exhibitions, drops, installations, and creative tools—backed by a collector base in the thousands. Governance is modeled after the Nouns framework, with community members holding voting rights based on token ownership. Entry occurs through token sales, and funds are granted by consensus. With continuous project proposals, a growing membership, and collaboration potential, Energy remains a vital force in shaping onchain creative culture.

### Why Daos.world? Daos.world is a launchpad and fundraising platform for decentralized communities built on Base. It facilitates ETH-based raises and token distribution for new or evolving DAOs. The platform has supported multiple successful launches, such as GG Capital DAO and Three Beras Capital, providing effective infrastructure and visibility.

Daos.world Highlights:

  • ETH-based fundraising with onchain tracking
  • ERC-20 token creation with 1.1B supply per DAO
  • 1B tokens to contributors, 100M to Uniswap V3 LP on Base
  • LP tokens locked until expiry to ensure safety
  • Snapshot-based airdrop and refund options
  • Staking to earn $DWL for future whitelist access
  • Optional team mint, public sale tiers, and treasury snipe options
  • Compatible with multichain growth including Solana and Base Raise Mechanics We intend to raise 100 ETH. Tokenomics include:
  • 1B total token supply
  • 10–20% to Uniswap V3 liquidity pool on Base
  • Remaining tokens distributed to contributors pro-rata

Fund Allocation:

  • $15,000 released as-needed for foundational setup (domain, GSuite, GitHub, Vercel, mmm.page, multisig, etc.)
  • 5% allocated to ongoing marketing and social engagement
  • Remaining ETH transferred to new DAO treasury wallet
  • Veto power redistributed post-raise via Proposal #1

Distribution Fairness for Current Members

  • Current ENERGY token holders receive an equivalent % allocation in the new DAO
  • Airdrop sent to the same wallets
  • 2x multiplier for holders who have participated in 2 or more proposals
  • !!!!Snapshot is the moment this prop is live!!!!

Example: A holder with 1.2% of the total ENERGY supply and 2+ proposal participations receives 2.4% of the new token allocation.
