3️⃣ Governance & DAO Mechanics

RocaDAO Overview

• Voting unit: 1 ROCA = 1 vote

• Proposal types: parameters, treasury, partnerships, upgrades

• Lifecycle: see stepper below

• Voting period: vote window and quorum rules described in Voting Math

1

Submit

A proposal is created and submitted to the DAO.

2

Validate (48h)

Proposals go through a 48-hour validation window for basic checks and eligibility.

3

Vote (5d, quorum ≥ 5%)

Voting opens for 5 days. A quorum of at least 5% of voting power is required for validity.

4

Timelocked Execution (24h)

If passed, the proposal is scheduled and executed after a 24-hour time-lock.

3.2 Voting Math

Voter weight:

$$V_i = \frac{h_i}{\sum_{k=1}^{N} h_k}$$

Decision rule:

$$\sum V_{\text{yes}} \;>\; 0.5$$

Outcome:

$$\mathrm{Outcome} = \begin{cases} 1, & \text{majority yes} \\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}$$

3.3 Treasury Governance & Security

• All treasury spends require DAO approval and multi-sig (3/5) sign-off.

• Time-locks for sensitive operations; monthly transparency reports.

• Snapshot voting for gas-efficient polling.

• AI anomaly detection for voting and treasury flows.
