Overview §00

Capital for projects still finding their form.

Eidos is a member-owned DAO with closed, invitation-only membership. Its members back promising on-chain projects with staked capital, and the treasury releases the funding gradually — as each project ships what it promised.

The Eidos ecosystem

Eidos DAO is responsible for running Eidos Chain, a proof-of-authority blockchain built for institutional settlement. The DAO primarily invests in projects developing on Eidos Chain.

Mechanism §01

From nominated to funded, in four steps.

No pitch decks, no gatekeepers, no off-chain deals. Backing is members staking their own capital behind a project — and pulling it back if they lose faith.

01

DiscoveryOpen nominations

Any member holding $EIDOS can nominate a project. Every nomination is public and on-chain, so anyone can see what’s up for backing and read the case for it.

02

ResolutionStaked backing

Backers stake $EIDOS behind a project. The stake stays locked while it backs the project, and its weight grows the longer it’s held — the rule we call the Eidos Curve. A project is funded once its backing crosses a set threshold.

03

FundingMilestone streaming

Funded projects don’t get a lump sum. The treasury releases capital in a steady stream, and each milestone the team verifies on-chain unlocks the next portion. If backers unstake, the stream slows.

04

ReturnBack to the treasury

When a project pays off — in tokens, revenue share, or on-chain equity — the proceeds return to the treasury, where they fund the next round of backing.

Portfolio §02

The portfolio lives on-chain.

Every project the DAO backs — with each stream, milestone, and return — is recorded on-chain and published in full. Nothing is decided or disbursed off the record.

Governance §03

The treasury answers only to its members.

Eidos is fully on-chain and owned by its members. There is no foundation, no managing partner, no discretionary veto. The mechanism is the manager.

Token
$EIDOS — held only by members, and not offered or sold to the public. It’s locked while it backs a project, and staked weight, not wallet balance, decides what gets funded.
Voting
Conviction voting. Backing builds the longer it’s held, so nothing is funded — or killed — on a single busy day.
Cadence
Continuous. A proposal passes the moment its backing crosses the threshold, not on a fixed vote date.
Treasury
Self-custodial. Every funding stream, unstake, and payout runs through audited contracts — no one signs the checks by hand.
Submit §04

Bring us a project still finding its shape.

Builders submit a project on-chain. Members stake behind the ones they believe in. Funding follows the backing — every step visible to anyone.
