⚖️DAO - Your Voice Counts
NEWS
The Space Nation DAO is building to decentralize decision-making and empower the community with the decision making ability to shape the project. It invites members to bring their skills, ideas and networks to fast-track the growth of the Space Nation virtual world. As co-creators of this roadmap, the strategic vision of the Space Nation DAO is to create sustainable value and reward for the Space Nation community and $OIK holders
In Phase 1, the sandbox stage, the DAO can vote on a wide range of proposals across 4 growth tracks , covering key areas like:
👉🏻Treasury Management: Token allocation, disbursement, management & reporting of Space Nation DAO treasury
👉🏻Game Development: Upgrades, new features, and creative content ideas for Space Nation Online.
👉🏻Token Economy: Enhancements to $OIK within the legal framework of utility tokens
👉🏻Charter Amendment: Proposed changes to the DAO governance structure or foundational rules.
The transition to full DAO governance will be completed in 3 phases, ensuring progressive decentralization and optimisation in the weighting of roles and responsibilities. Here's how it unfolds:
⏰Phase 1: From Company-led to DAO-led Governance (April - June 2025)
Appoint the first Guardians (G7) and Stellar Council.
Begin transferring decision-making powers in Treasury, Game Development, and Token Economy to the DAO.
Upgrad the Genesis Charter to define a broader governance framework: including veOIK-based participation, membership rights, proposal mechanisms, and excution logic.
⏰Phase 2: From Representative to Community-wide Governance (Q3-Q4 2025)
Launch formal elections for Guardians (G7) and Stellar Council (SC), completing the foundational structure of G7-SC-Community Voter.
Implement specialized proposal flows and execution processes for each governance category.
Enable efficient and inclusive governance driven by active community participation.
⏰Phase 3: Expanding the Scope of DAO Governance (2026 & beyond)
Once governance structure and workflows are stable, expand the DAO's decision-making scope.
Include major strategic areas like IP development, brand direction, and new product initiatives into DAO governance.
