Introducing WalletDAO

The WalletDAO is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization Governed and Owned by The WALLET Token Holders. Its Purpose is to Govern Ambire Wallet Development and Integrations.

Treasury

The DAO has a treasury managed by a multisig controlled by delegates. The treasury consists of 35.5% of the total WALLET token supply, as well as revenues from transaction fees (collected by the Ambire Relayer) and swaps.

Proposals

Proposals that involve treasury spending on project development work can only be submitted by the core team, but they can be voted on by all token holders, and would require a quorum.

The DAO Relies on The Following Revenue Streams:

  • Swaps: swaps made using the built-in UI (swap, diversify) charge a 0.5% fee
  • Relayer: if the relayer manages to save from gas fees by rebroadcasting the txn (with Flashbots, transactions can be re-broadcast with a lower fee), then a portion of the amount saved goes towards the DAO
  • Revenue share deals with FIAT on-ramp partners
  • Yearn revenue share: Yearn has a rev-share program for dApps that integrate their vaults
  • Plugin visibility: revenue from purchasing premium spots in the Ambire Wallet plugin catalog

Example of WalletDAO Governance

Since wallets are the main user-facing component of crypto infrastructure, integration decisions are usually the most contentious. Especially if the wallet is designed to be a full-featured DeFi dashboard like Ambire. For example, what if two DeFi protocols are competing over being the default provider of the Swap functionality? Their respective communities will likely lobby for their protocol to win.The WALLET token and the DAO give the opportunity for everyone to put their money where their mouth is by actually acquiring WALLET and competing through a governance system designed to elect a clear winner.

$WALLET Rewards and xWALLET Staking

30% of all WALLET will be distributed as rewards encourage users to use Ambire Wallet

In the first 4 years after Ambire Wallet’s launch, all users would get WALLET tokens based on the proportion of their digital asset value held in their wallet account over the TVL of the Wallet as a form of a liquidity mining program.

WALLET holders can stake their tokens on a single staking pool, and in return they'd get xWALLET which is a token representing their share of this pool. Additionally, WALLET holders can participate in providing liquidity to a variety of third party protocols to earn various token rewards.
