WITH HYBRID ADVISORY
_
DAO1 is reliant on modern technology to offer the most desirable services to its Decentralized Economy.
Artificial intelligence (AI) assisted decision making enables the community to make prudent but smart
decisions on where to invest funds. This feature empowers the community to invest in respectable
coins or tokens. The AI Advisory provides guidance on projects that carry the highest investment
potential. DAO1 promotes a system that maximizes profit and diminishes risk, catering to all kinds of
user and risk profiles. DAO1 is fully committed to create a safe investment environment for community
members, but users are still at risk of losing their investment capital due to the nature of the market
and volatility involved in the digital assets space. DAO1 recommends that users only use disposable
income to invest on the platform.

5.3.2. REVENUE GENERATION

The predefined investment funds proposed by the
DAO1 platform or any funds built by community
members will carry ongoing charges, and these
will be payable when buying and selling positions
in the funds. The platform charges are generally
dynamic and can vary depending on the type of
fund and demand. DAO1 will update community
members about the charges before the release
of this functionality.

9
5.4. CRYPTO VENTURE
& STARTUP FUND
_
The DAO1 Crypto Venture & Startup Fund will include
a Crypto Startup Fund and a Venture Startup Fund.
The Crypto Startup Fund will be a portfolio supporting
investments with any coin of choice in various funds
that come with an attractive APY. As part of the Venture
Startup Fund, there will be multiple funds to choose from
based on personal preferences. DAO1 will apply for an
applicable license in the relevant conducive jurisdiction
to boost the confidence of community members.

The Crypto Venture & Startup Fund will be a fully licensed

platform, and the DAO1 fund will eliminate barriers to
entry and promote community members’ inclusivity at all
levels of expertise. Financial inclusivity is at the heart of
our fund strategy. DAO1 wants to be fully inclusive from
an investment perspective, and community members
will be able to invest in the Crypto & Venture Startup
Fund with just $100. The platform will greatly improve
user exposure to the highest quality projects, and this

maintenance cost, as well as costs for transacting in
and out of both funds. We plan on paying rewards to
DAO1 token holders and a detailed costing structure
will be announced following the release of this
5.4.1. FEATURES feature.

Investing in a similar style of a venture capital fund or in startups, is not something people can traditionally access.
DAO1 aims to change this limiting perception tied to investing in the blockchain space by introducing the Crypto
Venture and Startup Fund. This feature grants the ability for community members to make smart investment
decisions right from the beginning and provides a human-centred investment approach, coupled with artificial
intelligence decision-making. Community members can extensively research projects, assess teams, roadmaps,
competitive edge and risks. The Crypto & Venture Startup Fund is truly a unique offering and it will push DAO1
community members to become skilled startup investors over time.

The Venture Startup Fund will allow community members to select their risk level tolerance, similarly to the Hybrid
Advisory feature. It will offer a user-friendly panel to allow community members to review all the opportunities,
risks, and threats involved with investing in any project they select for investment. As part of the fund, there will
be multiple combinations of funds available to community members based on the level of risk. For example, a
safer option would involve a fund offering Bitcoin and Ethereum. A higher risk option will be a fund with a heavy
allocation in Altcoins projects such as Uniswap, Polkadot, or Chainlink. A safer option would be an allocation to
stable coins such as Tether (USDT) or USD Coin (USDC).

10
5.5. DAO1 INCUBATOR
PLATFORM
_
The challenge observed in the blockchain space is that the majority of projects will not fill a consumer need.
This challenge, coupled with a lack of investment or team misalignment, results in the failure of many projects.
DAO1 has seen an opportunity to improve this by introducing the DAO1 Incubator Platform. Its sole purpose will
be to identify projects with the most potential, and work with them to provide exclusive mentorship, funds for
development, and access to respectable partnerships until there is a finished product or service.

The idea is to help develop innovative business plans and make them successful, whilst taking them on a great
journey from start to finish. The focus will be to make projects successful while actively supporting and helping the
members of our DAO1 community strive for success.

5.5.1. FEATURES
The DAO1 Incubator Platform will help entrepreneurs and teams to shape their ideas into full-fledged businesses.
They will be helped by an experienced DAO1 team and external experts from diverse fields with the know-how of
various aspects of running a viable business.

Everything big starts with a simple idea. While there is no dearth of ideas in people’s minds, the challenge is to
find the right platform where these ideas can be expressed to understand its true potential. The DAO1 Incubator
Platform provides a conducive atmosphere where community members can submit their product ideas or
prototypes, to be evaluated by industry experts and DAO1 community members in terms of innovativeness and
the real-world problem-solving potential.

Based on the evaluation reports, the projects will be shortlisted and voted upon by DAO1 token holders. The entries
receiving the highest scores will be selected to be part of the incubation program, where they will be provided with
mentorship and necessary resources to further enhance the initial idea and turn it into a viable business.

Participants in the DAO1 Incubator Program will also benefit from the development, marketing, advisory and legal
services through trusted DAO1 partners, to accelerate product development and launch. As a part of the DAO1
ecosystem, the incubatees will also receive support for listing and fundraising on leading blockchain startups and
investment platforms, as well as exchange listing of their respective project tokens.

5.5.2. REVENUE GENERATION

All projects incubated by the DAO1 Incubator Program will be part of the DAO1
ecosystem. DAO1 token holders will gain early access to these projects, allowing
them to invest in the early stages to enjoy long term benefits in the form of discounts
on products and services offered by the platform, appreciation in the value of project
tokens, participation in the project’s governance, and a small share in the revenue
generated by the project.

DAO1 token holders will also be eligible to receive the incubatee project’s tokens as
airdrops.

11
 5.6. DAO1 CHARITY INITIATIVE
CHARITY COLLECTABLES NFTS
_
DAO1 believes in providing for communities and supporting charitable projects. It will be implementing a
feature that will allow community members to support a range of charities right from within the platform. This
feature will be open to anyone that signs up on the platform and it will enable any community member or artist
selling tokenized NFTs, to raise funds and donate to charitable causes of their choice. DAO1 plans to offer its
community members a portal where they can support important causes. It also plans on supporting charities
directly through a portal, where anyone holding the DAO1 token can directly donate the equivalent amount in
any currency denomination of their choice.

5.6.1. FEATURES
Being a community-led initiative, DAO1 intends
to give back to the community through
charitable causes.

To facilitate donations to the non-profits and

charities committed to serving society, the
platform will create an environment where
community members can list their NFTs for sale
or auction, such as tokenized art pieces. Anyone 5.6.2. REVENUE GENERATION

12
5.7. INTERNATIONAL
HACKATHON FOR DEVELOPERS
_

D
AO1 is creating an ecosystem that is capable of nurturing ideas as well as products that could
potentially shape the future of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Blockchain and Robotics.
Apart from the Crypto & Venture Startup Fund and DAO1 Incubator platform, the project will
frequently organize International Hackathons for Developers where anyone from anywhere can sign up and
create prototypes of different DeFi products and services with real-world use cases.

The DAO1 International Hackathon has a low barrier of entry to attract more participation, and each candidate
participating in the hackathon will have their entries evaluated and judged by a highly qualified team. The
winners will receive attractive monetary benefits and a chance to have their ideas turned into full-fledged
products with the help of DAO1’s incubation services.

The involvement of talented teams from all over the world showcasing innovative ideas and technology
skills to build solutions for the future will not only help the participants to create business of their own, but
also helps the ecosystem constantly upgrade its tools and modules for the growth of the community as well
as the DAO1 native token.

By operating a Decentralized Fund with Hybrid Advisory, providing staking, farming, underwriting services,
creating Charitable NFTs, a Crypto & Venture Startup Fund and Incubator Platform, DAO1 is at the forefront
of technology innovation. The international hackathons will give opportunity to anybody to contribute to
the development of the features and services of DAO1, while earning great prizes, mentoring, and access
to funding and other resources. Being a completely online inclusive event, teams from developed, as well
as emerging and underserved markets, can participate without any distinction between race, gender or
nationality. Those with the talent, vision and the desire to succeed will make it to the top.

 5.9. YIELD FARMING
_
Yield Farming is where you provide liquidity to DAO1 by
depositing your DAO1 plus ETH tokens into a liquidity
pool on Uniswap or SafeSwap.

The Liquidity Providers/Yield Farmers get a share of the

transaction fees generated by the DEX, usually around
0.30% based on their share of the total pool of funds.

The token pair receipt then can be deposited into a

farming vault that returns additional DAO1 tokens as
rewards for locking up the tokens for different time
intervals. Providing liquidity helps reduce slippage and
stabilizes the price for trades on the DEX.

Moreover, Liquidity Providers can deposit their

community members who want to earn higher

16
5.10. UNDERWRITINGS
_
The DAO1 Incubator Platform is helping entrepreneurial individuals and teams to shape their ideas
into full-fledged businesses growing a new generation of startups. These projects will be fundraised,
mentored, supported with resources, partnerships, and market entry facilities using the power of DAO1
infrastructure & the voting and decision power of the members.

DAO1 holders will also benefit from so-called underwritings, meaning every token holder is eligible to
participate in the fundraising platform. In cryptocurrency, underwritings stand for the right of preference.
In this case, it translates to DAO1 holders being able to engage directly in the value appreciation of
launched incubation projects.

All projects incubated by the DAO1 Incubator Program will be part of the DAO1 ecosystem and will help
the advancement of the platform. DAO1 token holders will gain early access to these projects, allowing
them to invest in the early stages to enjoy long term benefits in the form of discounts on products and
services offered by the platform, appreciation in the value of project tokens, participation in the project’s
governance and potentially a share in the revenue generated by the project.

The DAO1 token offers sustainable, long-term value, derived from the utility it brings to the entire DAO1
community. The community members are trusting the native token’s ability to support, nurture and
grow new and emerging startups. We will ensure the startups that we support offer unique and
value-adding features to help solve real world challenges. Our long-term commitment stretches
beyond what most of DAO1’s competing platforms are able to create.

6. REVENUE
GENERATION AND DISTRIBUTION
_
The DAO1 ecosystem is on a mission to offer socio-economic freedom to the DAO1 community. In order
to do that, the project redirects a significant portion of its revenues back to the community.

To start with, 80% of the revenues generated through transaction fees, commissions and subscription
charges towards products and services offered by the community, will be used for the benefit of its
users.

The platform will distribute 40% of the total revenues among stakers and yield farmers, while the
remaining 40% will be divided between DAO1 governance rewards, airdrops for DAO1 token holders and
the DAO1 token buyback program.

The remaining 20% of DAO1’s revenue will be used for further development of the platform and to
manage related expenses.

17
 7. AUDITING
_
Transparency is becoming an increasingly complex problem that is limiting new investments in the
blockchain space. To gain new investments and further nurture a culture of innovation, this space
requires more regulation and auditing. Users and Community Members alike are reluctant in joining the
whole ecosystem due to security breaches and loss of funds. DAO1 believes there are means to instill
confidence in the ecosystem and guarantee the safety of funds for its community and members.

DAO1 has in place a suitable strategy for driving adoption forward. It has an arrangement with the best
auditing firms in the blockchain space to guarantee the system has no vulnerabilities or loopholes
that can cause harm to community members such as loss of funds. All the DAO1 protocols and smart
contracts will go through meticulous checks to assure community members that the protocols are
technogically secure before going live.

8. VERIFICATION
BY DAO1 COMMUNITY
_
A commonly held belief in the blockchain space is that blockchain is based solely on a trustless system.
We believe that blockchain is not merely a trustless technology, but instead, it can be viewed as a
confidence machine based on cryptographic rules.

DAO1 incorporates and promotes a verification system responsible for a transparent environment
surrounding the DAO1 native token usage by the team and its associates. The aim is to deliver the most
desirable network to all community members globally, and there are stringent processes in place to
ensure that the verification runs smoothly.

Besides the rigorous auditing of DAO1 protocols and smart contracts by the most prestigious firms in
the industry, a locking system is formulated to lock tokens for team members, advisors, and marketing
at the early stages of the project backed by time-release smart contracts.

All the corresponding addresses regarding these individuals and sectors will be made public in a periodic
announcement. The goal is to offer the DAO1 community the right to verify the authenticity of the
project’s operations, and how responsible they are with the funds. DAO1 actively promotes transparency
across the entire team involved in the project delivery.

DAO1 believes the process is an ideal path to instill transparency and promote growth in the DAO1
Decentralized Economy.

18
 9. WHAT MAKES DAO1 BETTER
THAN ITS COMPETITORS?
_
The year 2021 has seen an unprecedented proliferation of DeFi projects with little to no utility. DAO1
guarantees that it is drastically different. The uniqueness of DAO1 is its proposed decentralized solution
within the Incubator Platform and the Crypto & Venture Startup Fund. This has never been done before
across the blockchain space. In essence, this is the broadest spectrum of financial services and the
most innovative, which includes the DAO1 Hybrid Advisory to DAO1 Crypto & Venture Startup Fund and
DAO1 Incubator Platform. DAO1 is an all-in-one platform that stands out from the rest.

10. PROMOTING ADOPTION

_
One of the core priorities is placing the community members first. DAO1 operates under the principle
of participation, which means community members’ opinions are significant, affecting the ecosystem’s
governance. Community members are stakeholders and profit from projects that will be supported by
the DAO1 Incubator Platform, which will include voting rights.

DAO1 expects a strong synergy with its Hybrid Advisory, whilst also incorporating aspects from the
DAO1 Crypto & Venture Startup Fund and DAO1 Incubator Platform.

11. SECURITY
MEASURES TO ENSURE MAXIMUM SAFETY OF FUNDS
_
DAO1 promotes the highest standards of security. The saying, “not your keys, not your coins” holds true
and has been relevant since the inception of Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency space is full of unfortunate
stories surrounding exchanges being hacked and Community Members losing funds. We do not
recommend storing tokens on cryptocurrency exchanges unless one is actively trading on a daily basis.
Exchanges are the most targeted entities by malicious attackers.

The DAO1 ecosystem will offer trading functionality via a decentralized exchange in a rapid, cost-
efficient, and secure way. Users will never be required to leave the DAO1 platform to trade. Furthermore,
the project is in conversations with a global cybersecurity firm to ensure the platform is protected with
state-of-the-art technology.

14. CHANNELS
FOR ENGAGEMENT
_
DAO1 will make use of social media platforms and online channels, particularly channels that are
commonly used by the cryptocurrency community. It will have a strong presence on social networks
such as Twitter, LinkedIn, BitcoinTalk, Telegram, Facebook, Discord, Youtube, Reddit, Quora, and others.

Regular engagement over the aforementioned channels will ensure the community is well informed
about DAO1. The platform will address any outstanding questions, concerns and provide answers to
the blockchain community. Furthermore, it will provide weekly technology and platform updates and
insights on the website, blog and Medium account.

The team members will engage in various events or platforms such as Clubhouse, Meetups, AMA,
conferences, Fireside Chat, both online and at locations. If in-person meetings are organized, they will
be held in a COVID-secure environment.

15. REPUTATION
IS IMPORTANT
_
After creating a solid social media presence, the next stage is to ensure industry players understand
our proposition so we can be part of aggregated platforms. The goal will be to get listed on popular
dependable, carefully chosen, and thoughtfully organized platforms in the space like DeFi Hunters, DeFi
Prime, DeFi Pulse, and many more. DAO1 will pursue the listing of the DAO1 native token on CoinGecko,
CoinMarketCap, and LiveCoinWatch. These platforms thoroughly assess all projects before listing, hence
by instilling trust, opening a space for new audiences.

16. EDUCATIONAL
STRATEGY
_
Education is the best means to building a thriving and active community in the digital assets space.
The more enlightened and engaged the community, the better they can appreciate the project and get
involved. DAO1 is building a platform with no entry barriers to bring beginners and advanced users on-
board. To ensure a great customer experience whilst using its protocols, the project will focus on an
educational program for the public about the entire ecosystem. When users gain knowledge about the
DAO1 project and the entire DeFi sector, it will reflect in their investment choices. Providing educational
content such as video tutorials, online classes, FAQ, chat support via its website, periodic educational
meetups, and other educational initiatives will make an incredible difference and have a positive impact.

17. INSPIRATIONAL
PROMOTERS
_
DAO1 will utilize influencers to actively promote the project as part of its marketing strategy to reach
a large audience. These influencers could be social media sensations, or from the crypto, finance, and
technology industry. An influencer may be open to promote the advantages of DAO1 as well as joining
the DAO1 community. The aim will be to achieve project penetration and acceptance. Attempts will be
made to engage those with huge followings on Twitter, Youtube, Instagram, Facebook, Blogs, podcasts,
etc.

18. ADVERTISING,
MEDIA AND EVENTS
_
Cryptocurrency and blockchain events present excellent opportunities to promote a new project and
build a network around it. The strategy is to attend and sponsor some conferences to exhibit the project,
run presentations, or feature as speakers. While the COVID-19 pandemic has presented unprecedented
challenges, the project will ensure that any in-person meeting will be COVID-secure.

DAO1 will engage the crypto/blockchain media to run Op-eds, interviews, feature articles, press releases
to discuss pertinent and trending issues in the industry. The approach will include pitching ideas across
media channels, promoting topics, and engaging in an open discussion with the aim to educate the entire
community frequently about blockchain, DeFi and socio-economic applications of such technology. It
will strive to achieve media presence with at least two mentions or engagements every month.

The team will periodically launch advertising campaigns on social media, and release news blogs with
videos, sponsored posts, banners, and community giveaways, targeting top news outlets, cryptocurrency
programs, social media platforms, among others.
