Boardroom: A universal governance dashboard for DeFi protocols
Objective
Enable token holders, issuers, and protocol politicians (delegates) to understand the governance processes they hold influence in and allow them to frictionlessly participate across different protocols.
Governance Management Portal
With Boardroom, users can learn about governance processes, review the status of current proposals, understand who top voters are, and delegate/interact with the protocol as long as they hold the respective token ($COMP, $LEND, $KNC, $BAL, etc.)
The portal will include the following features for each protocol:
- Protocol Governance Info
- Voter Information
- Proposal Information
- Protocol Politician / Delegate Profiles
- Proposal Q&A
You can find an MVP of the Portal Here
Progress
We are in contact with the following protocol team members, have pitched them the portal, and will be integrating them in the following order:
- Compound
- Aave
- KyberDAO
- Balancer
The portal idea was spawned in 2019 after winning ETH SF with a similar concept. Since then, we’ve conducted a suite of user interviews - including multiple members of MetaCartel - along with spec’ing out the MVP’s design.
Our Ask
3000 DAI to build the Alpha of Boardroom.
The MVP was bootstrapped and we need development help to go live with the portal and take it from MVP to Alpha in the next three weeks through:
- Setup generic API for providers and interface
- Integrate with Aave, Kyber, Balancer
- Build API schema and DB model
- Build components library for Voter Profiles and Remaining Projects
- Gather and integrate information from API
- Import off-chain data through backend scripts
- QA and improvements
The MetaCartel community has been instrumental in organically pushing the DAO and DeFi ecosystems forward, and what this project needs today is feedback and support from stakeholders that are entrenched in the day to day of DeFi and Web3 token projects. We’re here for as much constructive criticism and feedback as possible.
Our Team
Our team met 3 years ago and since have hacked dozens of web3 projects across a multitude of hackathons, including ETH SF (finalists), Capitol Royale (ConsenSys winners), Ethereal, WCEF…
