Where Democracy Meets Innovation ๐ณ๏ธโจ
DemetraDAO is a next-generation decentralized autonomous organization that involves Demetra, a sustainable shoes manifacturer company. It revolutionizes democratic decision-making through blockchain technology. Its goal is giving space to its community, allowing customers to be heard.
- ๐ Multiple Governance Strategies: Direct, Liquid, Representative, and Consensus Democracy
- โ๏ธ Weighted Voting System: Token-based proportional representation (1 token = 1 vote)
- ๐ Complete Transparency: All decisions and votes permanently recorded on-chain
- ๐ก๏ธ Security First: Built with OpenZeppelin's battle-tested contracts
- ๐จ Flexible Categories: Proposals organized by General, Strategic, Operational, Technical, and Governance types
- ๐ฐ Fixed Token Price: Transparent pricing at 0.001 ETH per governance token
- ๐๏ธ Production Ready: Fully tested with 100% compliance verificatio

Purchase governance tokens at a fixed rate of 0.001 ETH per token:
// Purchase governance tokens to join the DAO
function purchaseTokens() external payable {
// โ
Automatic membership upon token purchase
// โ
Tokens = Voting Power (1:1 ratio)
// โ
Minimum: 1 token, Maximum: 10,000 tokens
// โ
Treasury automatically updated
}Real Example:
- Send 1 ETH โ Receive 1,000 DMTR tokens โ 1,000 voting power
- Send 0.1 ETH โ Receive 100 DMTR tokens โ 100 voting power
Requirements:
- โ Must be a DAO member
- โ Must own at least 100 tokens
- โ Automatic proposal ID assignment
function createProposal(

string memory description,
VotingStrategy strategy, // Choose democracy type
ProposalCategory category, // Classify your proposal

- ๐ General (0): Community discussions and general decisions
- ๐ฏ Strategic (1): Long-term planning and partnerships
- โ๏ธ Operational (2): Day-to-day operations and processes
- ๐ง Technical (3): Protocol upgrades and technical changes
- ๐๏ธ Governance (4): DAO rule changes and governance updates
All voting types fully implemented:
// Vote on any proposal

// choice: 0 = ABSTAIN, 1 = FOR, 2 = AGAINST

- Voting Period: 7 days
- Delegate by category
- Expert-based decision making
- Quorum: 20%, Threshold: 50%
- Voting Period: 3 days
- Elected representatives vote
- Scalable governance structure
- Quorum: 30%, Threshold: 60%
- Voting Period: 7 days
- 1 member = 1 vote (regardless of tokens)

Our production-grade test suite verifies 100% compliance with all requirements:
npx hardhat test- โ Users can purchase DAO shares in exchange for ERC-20 tokens at fixed rate, becoming members
- โ Administrators can disable token sale functionality, finalizing initialization phase
- โ Members can propose decisions (Proposals) to be submitted for voting
- โ Members can vote with weighted votes based on number of DAO shares owned
- โ Decisions receiving majority of weighted votes are approved (or rejected)
- โ Contract maintains registry of proposed decisions and related voting
- โ Members can vote FOR or AGAINST each decision
- โ Decisions can include external transfers of ERC-20 tokens to external addresses
- โ Members can vote to ABSTAIN from decisions
- โ Share purchase works correctly, with creation of new members
- โ Proposal creation works correctly, with registry addition
- โ Weighted voting system works correctly, proportional to shares owned
- โ Voting works correctly, with FOR/AGAINST/ABSTAIN and individual recording
- โ Majority decisions are approved and recorded as executed (or rejected)
- โ Registry is maintained correctly for all proposals and votes
- โ Voting restricted to DAO share owners only
Additional Edge Cases Tested:
- โ Double voting prevention
- โ Non-member restrictions
- โ Insufficient token proposals
- โ Admin access controls
- โ Gas optimization verification
- โ All voting strategies compatibility
- Solidity 0.8.20+: Smart contract development
- OpenZeppelin Contracts: Security and standards
- ERC20Votes: Governance token with delegation
- AccessControl: Role-based permissions
- ReentrancyGuard: MEV protection
