Gaining DAO Masons Core Membership​

  • To join the DAO Masons a prospective DAO Mason must:
    • be sponsored by at least one active DAO Mason.
    • have contributed to at least 3 completed projects including 1 Internal Project
    • complete the Ritual of Acumen
    • complete the Ritual of Oaths

Losing DAO Masons Core Membership​

  • To lose DAO Masons core membership:
    • Voluntarily exit the DAO
    • An Inactivity or Bad Faith Demotion proposal passes

Demotion​

A Demoted member has voting shares converted to non-voting shares.

Inactivity Demotion​

Inactivity Demotion occurs when a member is not meeting the DAO Masons Activity criteria and a Demotion Proposal passes to Demote them.

Activity Critieria​

  1. They have made an active contribution to at least one project within the last 90 days evidenced by receiving at least one share within a project.
  2. Have participated with DAO Governance and/or Key DAO Decisions within the past 90 days.

We understand that there are valid reasons to step away from a DAO for a period of time and this Inactivity Demotion is intended to account for that and optimize governance.

Bad Faith Demotion​

Bad Faith Demotion occurs when the DAO agrees that a member is operating in Bad Faith. An example may be attempting to steal or divert DAO funds.

A Bad Faith Demotion generally implies that the former member should never be voted back into member status.

Promotion​

A member who has been Demoted can be Promoted with a passing Promotion Proposal.

Gaining Contributor Status​
