成立时间 | 2018 |
成立地点 | 美国加利福尼亚州旧金山 |
主营 | 治理 |
初始筹款 | $ 3.2M |
Commonwealth 协议筹集了 320 万美元，由 Dragonfly 和 Parafi 领投。 参与的投资者和天使投资人包括 Framework、Hashed、IDEO、Nascent 和 Balaji Srinivasan。 Commonwealth实验室孵化了Commonwealth协议，并将继续成为社区的活跃成员。
Commonwealth简介:
管理全球利益相关者实际上很困难，尤其是基于区块链的协议。 协议需要明确治理，以迅速实现功能、确定负责的项目团队和合适的资源分配。 Commonwealth促进了协议和组织的可扩展治理和决策制定。
项目介绍:
Commonwealth 是一个供链上社区共同讨论、投票和资助项目的一体化平台。 通过 Commonwealth，代币创造者被赋予了简单和便利的处理社区和治理的各种工具，如：代币创建者可以采用“链上通知”、“链下投票和链上投票”、“众筹”和“ 丰富的论坛经验”。
Commonwealth协议是一个集成客户端，它是代币持有者的社区中心，每个代币化社区都有一个类似 Reddit 的讨论板。其他功能包括链上功能，例如查看新代币和社区计划的关键利益相关者、治理和众筹。
基本信息:
ParaFi 资本合伙人Santiago Santos将综合社区体验描述为：“积极的、有代表性的、高度参与的治理讨论对于协议的成功及建立强大社区至关重要。 没有它，协议就会有中心化的风险（echo chambers）。 作为 DeFi 的治理积极参与者，我们发现有时很难密切关注我们投资组合中不断增加的讨论和提案数量。 Commonwealth 是一个治理聚合器：简单的界面监控和管理提案。 我们很高兴能够支持团队并通过客户端来提高我们的治理能力。”
Commonwealth协议的可覆盖性:
Commonwealth协议已经为以太坊、Cosmos 和 Substrate 生态系统中的协议社区提供支持。 包括著名的项目，如：AAVE、Opyn、Osmosis、Marlin、Injective Protocol、SportX、Showtime、Terra、Clover Finance、hydraDX、Kylin、Anchor 和 Mirror Protocol。
Commonwealth 的目标:
Commonwealth协议创始人 Dillon Chen 表示，Commonwealth 的目标是成为代币社区发起、讨论和共同成长的地方。 为了实现这一目标，该团队正在构建一个多链社区平台，任何 EVM、Substrate 和 Cosmos 兼容协议或代币都可以使用。
有了资金，Commonwealth协议计划招聘新员工来加速产品和协议的开发。Commonwealth协议将提供的主要功能之一是支持各种代币社区的跨链协议治理和众筹资金。 这允许项目使用 Commonwealth来众筹社区的关键计划，例如初始流动性、开发补助和审计。
- Commonwealth协议通过三个主要用例获得价值：
1- 项目：类似 Kickstarter 的活动。
2- 集体：类似于 AngelList 的流动基金。
3- 治理：具有集成投票功能的加密原生讨论。
花在Commonwealth协议客户端上的时间间接推动了讨论。 每一次讨论都是一次众筹机会。 随着Commonwealth协议客户端上代币市值的增加，可以将更多价值押在集体（又名资金）中。
“尽管 DAO 管理的资产大幅增长，而且这些 DAO 管理的操作也很复杂，但它们的工具仍然停留在石器时代。 解决方案是分散的、自治的和不透明的。 参与了许多协议的治理过程，我个人非常敏锐地感受到了这些问题。 Commonwealth协议是真正用于管理这些社区的下一代软件，对于不同规模的 DAO 进行筹款、组织和扩大规模都是必不可少的。 我们非常高兴能够为团队提供支持，并期待与他们合作，共同打造 DAO 管理的未来。” Dragonfly Capital 合伙人 Tom Schmidt 说。
当common的创始人Chen被问及Commonwealth协议的灵感时，他说：“随着每个利益都被标记为 ERC20 或 NFT，您的链上地址将成为您的链上个人资料的链接。 Commonwealth协议可以帮助这些在链上的用户使用我们为讨论、资助和小组协调而构建的具有相同default-open 原语（primitives ）讨论进行协作和决策。”
¡ 链上通知：准确、持续地提醒正在发生的事情，引导社区在投票和大额转账时更好的同步。
¡ 链下投票和链上投票：无论用户使用 Snapshot、COMP 治理合约还是本地第layer 1投票，为访问所有内容提供了更大的灵活性和效率。
¡ 众筹：通过类似 kickstarter 的方式为代币和社区计划提供资金。
¡ 丰富的论坛经验：在讨论式的论坛中讨论关键决策。 使用内置的 Markdown 和趣味性来增强用户发帖。
团队成员:
Commonwealth labs和 Common协议背后的团队之前创建了 Edgeware，智能合约平台，用于构建打算在 Polkadot 生态系统中运行的去中心化应用程序 (dApps)。 截至公告之日，其代币 EDG 的市值约为 2.55 亿美元。

Commonwealth: a tool of discussion, crowdfunding and governance for any token community

Year of Establishment | 2018 |
Country of Origin | San Francisco, California, USA |
Sector | Governance |
Initial Fundraising | $ 3.2M |
Common Protocol raises $3.2M led by Dragonfly and Parafi. Participating investors and angels include Framework, Hashed, IDEO, Nascent, and Balaji Srinivasan. Commonwealth Labs incubated Common Protocol and will remain active members of the community.
Brief Overview About Commonwealth:
Governing a set of global stakeholders is hard, especially for blockchain-based protocols. Protocols need clear governance for prompt feature implementation, accountable project teams, and correct resource allocation. Commonwealth facilitate scalable governance and decision making for protocol and organizations.
Project Summary:
Commonwealth is an all-in-one platform for on-chain communities to discuss, vote, and fund projects together. Through Commonwealth, Token creators are empowered by simplicity and facility of handling for the community and the governance with various tools such as: “On-chain notification”, “Off-chain polling & On-chain voting”, “Crowdfunding”, and “A rich forum experience”. Later on, these tools are briefly explained.
Common Protocol includes an integrated client which is a community hub for token holders, each tokenized community features a Reddit-like discussion board. Additional functionality includes on-chain functionality like viewing key stakeholders, governance, and crowdfunding for both new tokens and community initiatives.
Basic Information:
Santiago Santos, Partner at ParaFi capital describes the integrated community experience as, “Active, representative governance discussions with high-participation is paramount to the success of protocols and their efforts to build strong communities. Without it, protocols run the risk of centralized echo chambers. As active governance participants across DeFi, we’ve found it hard at times to keep tabs on the ever-expanding number of discussions and proposals across our portfolio. Enter Common Protocol a governance aggregator to monitor and manage proposals from one simple interface. We’re excited to back the team and use the client to boost our governance capabilities.”
The coverability of Common Protocol:
Common Protocol already powers $5b+ of protocol communities in Ethereum, Cosmos, and the Substrate Ecosystem. The waitlist for integrations includes notable projects like: AAVE, Opyn, Osmosis, Marlin, Injective Protocol, SportX, Showtime, Terra, Clover Finance, hydraDX, Kylin, Anchor, and Mirror Protocol. Many of the founders on the waitlist are also investors in the round.
What Commonwealth want to achieve:
The goal of Commonwealth according to Dillon Chen, founder of Common Protocol is to become the place for token communities to launch, discuss, and grow in common. To accomplish this the team is building a multi-chain community platform that any EVM, Substrate, and Cosmos compatible protocols or token can use.
With funding in hand, Common Protocol plans to make new hires to accelerate product and protocol development. One of the major features the Common Protocol will offer is cross-chain protocol governance and crowdfunding for any token community. This allows projects to use Common to crowdfund key community initiatives like initial liquidity, development grants, and audits.
- Common Protocol earns value via three main use-cases:
1- Projects: Kickstarter-like campaigns.
2- Collectives: AngelList-like rolling funds.
3- Governance: crypto native Discourse with integrated voting.
Time spent with the Common Protocol client drives discussion. Each discussion is a crowdfunding opportunity. As the market cap of tokens on the Common Protocol client increases, more value can be staked in collectives (aka funds).
“Despite the immense growth in assets managed by DAOs and the complexity of operations these DAOs manage, the tooling for them is still stuck in the stone age. Solutions are fragemented, home brewed, and opaque. Having participated in many protocol’s governance processes, I’ve personally felt these pains very acutely. Common Protocol is true next-generation softwre for managing these communities and will be essential for any DAO of any size to fundraise, organize, and scale-up. We can’t be more excited to be supporting the team and look forward to working with them to build the future of DAO management” said Tom Schmidt, partner at Dragonfly Capital.
When Chen the founder of Common were asked about Common Protocol’ inspiration, he said, “As every interest gets tokenized into an ERC20 or NFT, your on-chain address becomes a link to your on-chain profile. Common Protocol can help these users who are linked on-chain collaborate and make decisions using the same default-open primitives we’ve built for discussion, funding, and group coordination.”
¡ On-chain notifications: an accurate and continuous reminder of what is happening on-chain, leading the community to a better synchronization when it comes to voting and large transfers.
¡ Off-chain polling & on-chain voting: whether users use Snapshot, COMP governance contracts, or native Layer 1 voting, access everything from one provides more flexibility and efficiency.
¡ Crowdfunding: Fund new tokens and community initiatives with kickstarter-like raises from a thread.
¡ A rich forum experience: Discuss memes or key decisions, in a Discourse-style forum. Enhance users posts with built-in Markdown and fun reactions.
Team members:
The team behind Commonwealth Labs and the Common Protocol previously created Edgeware, a smart contract platform for building decentralized applications (dApps) that intends to operate within the Polkadot ecosystem. As of day of announcement, the coin market cap of EDG, its token, is ~$255M.
