Syndicate Network Collective Roadmap

About Syndicate Network Collective

This dashboard is the focal point for information related to the Syndicate Network Collective DUNA. As a taxpaying U.S. entity, it is essential that members are aware of the financial inflows and outflows (and related tax consequences) of the DUNA Treasury in a clear and concise manner. The SYND governance token provides the members with ultimate control over how the Treasury should be utilized in support of the Syndicate Network. The Syndicate Network Collective is established as an organizational framework for collective decision-making and innovation to pursue the common, nonprofit purpose of providing a foundation for community-aligned platforms to reshape how participation and contribution is valued on the internet.

Token governance is live, with a temp-check and tax reporting intake (via Cowrie – Administrator Services tooling) completed upon passage of the governance proposal.

Voting in the Syndicate Collective

Voting process

  • In order for a Governance Proposal to be enacted, it must:
    • first be submitted as a Temp-Check, which is a five-day period during which Members can utilize their SYND token to indicate support for a proposal. In order for a proposal to transition from a Temp-Check to a vote of the membership, the Temp-Check must attain the support of 5% of the SYND tokens in circulation, except as limited by Article 13 of the Association Agreement.
    • upon a successful Temp-Check, the Governance Proposal period is open for seven days, during which time Members can utilize their SYND token to affirm, deny, or participate without voting on the proposal. A proposal:
      • passes if the majority of votes affirm the proposal and 10% of the SYND tokens in circulation participate in the vote; and
      • fails if the majority of votes deny the proposal or 10% of the SYND tokens in circulation did not participate in the vote.
  • A passed Governance Proposal can be reverted for further consideration and modification pursuant to Article 14 of the Association Agreement if it is determined by the Rules Committee within 3-days of passage to be violative of legal requirements, technically unfeasible, or malicious. If the 3-day period expires without reversion or the Rules Committee affirms the Governance Proposal, it is enacted.
  • Upon enactment of a Governance Proposal, any recipients of funds must complete a tax reporting intake through tooling provided by the Rules Committee Administrator within 15 days, or the payment will expire, and the recipient shall not be eligible to receive the funds absent future Governance Proposal.

How voting power works

The SYND token uses OpenZeppelin's ERC20Votes. Your tokens don't count as votes until you choose where your voting power should live:

  • Self-delegate to vote directly from your own wallet.
  • Delegate to someone you trust so they can vote on your behalf.

Either way, you keep full ownership of your tokens. Delegation does not let anyone move your tokens or claim them; it only points your voting power. You can change or revoke delegation at any time by making a new delegation.

Why it's designed this way:

This model keeps everyday transfers cheaper and lets governance use reliable onchain snapshots of voting power at specific blocks.

Delegating to yourself and others

Self-Delegation:

Self-delegating activates your voting power so you can vote directly in onchain proposals.

  • Onchain action: Call delegate(0xYOUR-WALLET-HERE).
  • After this one-time step (per address, per chain), your votes will track your token balance automatically. No need to repeat unless you later delegate to someone else.

Vote directly from your wallet

Delegate to Other Members:

You can point your voting power to a trusted delegate. This helps active representatives vote on your behalf while you retain token ownership and can re-delegate at any time.

You are still a member of the WY DUNA.

Under Wyoming's Decentralized Unincorporated Nonprofit Association Act, a member is someone who may participate in selecting administrators or shaping policies. A membership interest is the voting right defined by those principles, and the Act explicitly contemplates that voting can be administered by smart contracts. Delegating your votes does not transfer your tokens or your membership; it only authorizes another address to cast votes using your voting power.
