TMI DAO Token

Govern, stake, and
shape the protocol.

The DAO token is the governance layer of The Midas Initiative. Holders direct the protocol, vote on every major decision, and can stake their tokens to earn a share of rewards generated by the protocol.

What is the DAO Token

Governance and
staking, combined.

The TMI DAO token gives holders two distinct rights: the power to vote on how the protocol operates, and the ability to stake their tokens to earn a portion of rewards generated by the protocol.

These rights are built into the protocol contracts directly. They are not promises or policies. They are enforced on chain, without any trusted party in the middle.

How to get it
🥩
Staking Rewards
Stake your DAO tokens to earn a portion of rewards generated by the protocol. Rewards accumulate across DG fees, D-Token fees, and EOL token fees. The more the protocol is used, the more is generated.
🗳️
Governance Votes
Token holders vote on fee rates, contract upgrades, ambassador appointments, project support, and more across the full protocol stack.
🔐
Upgrade Control
No contract in the protocol can be upgraded without a DAO majority vote. The team cannot push changes unilaterally, ever.
🏗️
Project Support Allocation
Governance decides which projects receive protocol liquidity or support.
Staking

Stake to earn.
Across every token.

The protocol accumulates a portion of fees generated across all contracts. Stakers earn rewards from this pool, proportional to their stake.

Governance Powers
Real control.
Not advisory.

DAO token votes are binding at the contract level. When governance passes a proposal, the contract executes it. There is no multisig or team approval step in between.

Important distinction

The DAO token governs the protocol infrastructure: DG, G, and D-Token contracts. EOL tokens have their own governance structure where EOL holders are the primary voting party for decisions specific to their token. The DAO token does not override EOL holder governance.

Upgrade veto

Every contract upgrade across the entire protocol requires both a DAO majority vote AND an ambassador majority vote to pass independently. Either party alone can block an upgrade. The protocol team has no unilateral upgrade path.

Governance sets the burn rate, transfer fee rate, mint fee rate, and redemption fee rate across DG and all D-Token clones, within immutable floors and ceilings set at deployment. Governance also controls the fee split ratios that determine how much goes to burns, gold reserves, and protocol revenue.
Ambassadors are the independent verification layer for physical gold audits and end of life votes. Governance exclusively appoints and removes ambassadors across the G Token and each D-Token clone. Ambassador counts are always kept odd (5 to 11) to ensure clean majority outcomes.
All upgrade proposals must include the new implementation address, a plain-language description of changes, and an IPFS CID linking to the full diff and audit. A DAO majority vote is required alongside an ambassador majority vote. Both must pass independently before any upgrade executes.
New DG tokens can only be minted after governance approves the mint. Before any vote, the team publishes an audit confirming that new gold reserves are already in custody. Governance reviews and permits the mint only once the audit checks out, ensuring that every token in circulation is backed by physical gold that actually exists.
Governance decides which projects or pools receive protocol support. Liquidity provision is the preferred form.
If the protocol treasury ever becomes inaccessible, changing it requires three completely independent approvals: founder majority, ambassador majority, and DAO majority. No treasury change can execute without governance consent. The DAO is one of three hard blockers.
How to Get It

Three ways in.

The DAO token will be available through multiple routes at and after launch.

01
Buy on DEX
The DAO token will be tradeable on decentralised exchanges. Connect your wallet and swap any supported asset directly for the DAO token at market price. No account or KYC required.
02
Provide Liquidity
Add liquidity to pools supported by the protocol and earn DAO tokens as a reward for contributing to healthy markets. Liquidity providers are a core part of the protocol's stability over time.
03
Community and Launch Events
Allocations will be available through community participation, early supporter programs, and the initial launch event. Join the Discord to stay informed as details are confirmed ahead of launch.

Exact contract addresses, exchange listings, and launch event details will be published in the documentation and announced across official channels. Always verify contract addresses through official sources before any transaction.
