Community & Governance
Learn about $TAOBOT, revenue sharing, and our vision for future DAO governance.
The TAO.BOT ecosystem is evolving to include a governance token—$TAOBOT—that will allow holders to receive a share of protocol revenues. While we’re excited to provide token holders with a stake in our platform’s success, we also want to be transparent about our current limitations and future aspirations for decentralizing control.
$TAOBOT Token & Revenue Sharing
$TAOBOT is our governance token that will eventually entitle holders to:
- Revenue Sharing: A portion of TAO.BOT’s protocol fees will be distributed to $TAOBOT holders. This is designed to reward community members who invest in the platform’s long-term growth and success.
- Future Governance Rights (Planned): As the ecosystem matures, $TAOBOT holders may gain the ability to vote on proposals affecting protocol parameters, feature roadmaps, and more.
Launch Timeline:
- Week 1-2 After Launch: We aim to introduce the revenue sharing mechanism, so $TAOBOT holders can begin earning from protocol fees.
- Months Down the Road: Further governance functionality (e.g., voting, proposal creation) may be introduced, subject to technical readiness and community interest.
Current Governance Model
For now, the core team retains control over protocol decisions and development priorities. While we eventually plan to transition to a more decentralized governance model, the team remains in control during these early stages—overseeing operations, enforcing security measures, and guiding the platform’s direction.
Key Points:
- All major changes—like fee adjustments, new features, or expansions—will be decided by the TAO.BOT team until further notice.
- The DAO proposal system is on our roadmap but not active at launch.
Future Plans
Despite the initial reliance on centralized control, we’re committed to gradual decentralization. Some areas we hope to develop in the coming months include:
-
Proposal & Voting System:
- A mechanism that allows $TAOBOT holders to formally propose changes and improvements, then vote on their adoption.
-
On-Chain Governance Contracts:
- Smart contracts to automate the approval and enforcement of decisions based on token-holder votes.
These steps reflect our vision of a true DAO where $TAOBOT holders guide the platform’s evolution while maintaining robust security and reliable operations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When can I start earning from protocol fees with $TAOBOT?
A: We plan to roll out the revenue-sharing mechanism around 1-2 weeks after launch. Actual dates may shift due to technical considerations.
Q: Will I be able to vote on protocol changes immediately?
A: Not at launch. Full governance rights (proposal creation, voting) may take months to implement. The core team retains control until then.
Q: How will revenue sharing be distributed to $TAOBOT holders?
A: Details of the distribution schedule (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly) will be communicated alongside the release.
Conclusion
$TAOBOT offers a pathway to align the community’s interests with the success of the TAO.BOT platform. While our immediate priority is establishing a stable, secure environment (with the team overseeing major decisions), we remain committed to evolving into a more decentralized model over time.
