Explore the World of FOODNOUNS

FOODNOUNS DAO’s treasury exists to benefit the long term growth and prosperity of the project. This is done via proposals. A proposal is one or more transactions to be executed by the FOODNOUNS DAO contract. Proposals can range from funding addresses to more complex structures that interact with other contracts.

Below are instructions for FOODNOUN owners to send a proposal to the FOONOUNS DAO contract.

Proposal to fund a project via transfer of funds

Most FOODNOUNS DAO proposals revolve around funding teams that build on the FOODNOUNS protocol and brand. For this reason, the basic template for a proposal is to send ETH to one or multiple addresses from the FOODNOUNS DAO treasury. To do so, follow the instructions below:

1. Head over to foodnouns.wtf/vote and click on the "Create Proposal" button.
2. Click the "Add Transaction" button. The "Add a Proposal Transaction" modal should pop up. Follow the steps in the modal as follows:
   1. Step 1: Address value is the address of the recipient
   2. Step 2: Value is the amount of ETH to be sent to the recipient denominated in ETH
   3. Skip step 3 and 4. These steps are required for external contract interactions.
   4. Step 5: Review that both address and value are correct. If so, click the "Add Transaction" button.
3. If your proposal requires multiple transactions, repeat step 2 with each recipient address.
4. Fill in the proposal title and description. Descriptions accept markdown for formatting and you can use an online editor (eg dillinger.io) to compose and preview.
5. Submit your proposal by clicking the "Create Proposal" button. The wallet submitting the proposal must hold the minimum threshold of 1% of the total FOODNOUN supply (1 FOODNOUN until FOODNOUN #100) to submit.

<aside> ⚠️ Governance proposals occur on-chain and require a transaction. Ethereum transactions require paying a transaction fee, when you submit a proposal you will have to pay the transaction fee. While FOODNOUN’s Governance contracts use techniques to reduce the amount of gas required to submit a proposal it may take 400,000+ gas to submit your proposal.
