# Welcome to Coordinape

Coordinape es una plataforma para que las DAOs distribuyan justa y fácilmente los recursos con los contribuyentes. Las subvenciones comunitarias, salarios internos y proyectos especiales pueden incentivarse y ser recompensados por la misma comunidad. En lugar de las desagradables votaciones o comités de caja negra, los propios contribuyentes pueden recompensar el valor que se vea creado de manera rápida y transparente.

## Visión

La promesa de las DAOs es una colaboración descentralizada, en donde grupos de personas puedan resolver problemas juntos y compartir la recompensa de su trabajo. A medida que el potencial revolucionario de las DAOs se hace más evidente, también lo hacen sus retos y limitaciones… especialmente de parte de quienes operan en ellas. Coordinape busca que la verdadera experiencia de las personas que trabajan en las DAOs sea mucho más dinámica, gratificante y justa.

Coordinape traslada la toma de decisiones a la comunidad. La simple premisa es que si preguntas a todos los miembros en la comunidad quien realiza un buen trabajo, la respuesta colectiva dará una buena idea de dónde está el valor y quién debería de ser mejor recompensado. Con el tiempo, esto igualmente proporciona valiosa información para la DAO sobre que tipo de trabajo se prioriza, que es lo que la comunidad encuentra más valioso y quiénes son los contribuyentes clave en las diferentes áreas. La visualización compartida de igual manera permite a todos los miembros de la comunidad ver quien trabaja en qué y encontrar oportunidades de colaboración o reducir la duplicación de esfuerzos.

Ahora se concentra en los círculos de regalo para la distribución de recursos, pero se añaden constantemente funciones para que así los presupuestos, la contratación y la incorporación, la priorización de proyectos y las inversiones puedan realizarse en la plataforma.

## ¿Cómo funciona?

Coordinape actualmente se implementa como un alpha off-chain mientras continuamos desarrollando nuestra versión on-chain, utilizando un EVM compatible L2 o una side-chain.

Coordinape se construye alrededor de círculos – grupos de participantes de una DAO que desean distribuir fondos mediante un proceso de regalo descentralizado. Cada círculo puede definir las reglas de participación – puede incrementar su red sin necesidad de permisos, establecer parámetros en torno a ciertos elementos de su mecánica de juego y alternar la visibilidad de la red, ya sea mediante una administración descentralizada o gobernanza interna.

Los círculos funcionan en epochs: periodos de tiempo en los cuales los contribuyentes que lo constituyen pueden enviarse mutuamente GIVE tokens, los cuales representan la asignación presupuestaria total de ese círculo. Concebimos los epochs como eventos mensuales, en donde los contribuyentes pueden considerar la colaboración de los demás y la habilitación y fomento mutuo de la misión de la DAO durante ese período de tiempo. A cada miembro se le asigna una cantidad fija de GIVE (100 por defecto), y puede enviar cualquier número de estos tokens libremente a otros miembros del círculo durante ese epoch. Los miembros también pueden “opt out” si reciben financiación en cualquier otro lugar, lo que les permite enviar GIVE pero no recibirlo. GIVE no tiene valor si no es dado a otro miembro del círculo – el proceso de regalar define el pago por miembro del presupuesto del círculo.

Cuando el epoch termina, el GIVE que cada miembro ha recibido puede ser intercambiado por una cantidad dividida del presupuesto mensual de tesorería.

## Aprende más

Coordinape actualmente se encuentra en una fase off-chain Alpha, trabajando con equipos seleccionados como Yearn para así desarrollar y refinar la experiencia. Existe una versión pública disponible y accesible por medio de [www.coordinape.com](http://www.coordinape.com).

### Bienvenido a Coordinape

This section of docs has been prepaired for organizations that are newly getting to know Coordinape. Follow links below for the general premise and vision of Coordinape, how to use the application, and best practices.


# Vision

## Building DAO Operations

DAOs have revolutionized our facility for coordinating decision-making via coin-voting, but the shortfalls of these broad consensus-finding mechanisms have become very apparent as we’ve put them to the test across hundreds of communities over the past year.

While DAOs are often used to manage growing protocol's many operational decisions such as hiring and compensation, the average coin-holder often lacks the time or expertise to add useful input to a system and is most often either abstaining or rubber stamping initiatives based on their trust, or lack of trust, in the core team.

DAOs solve one half of the problems decentralized networks require, defining governance. Coordinape is a DO (decentralized operations) platform that aims to solve the other half: a structure to make operational decisions within a team of contributors. If a DAO is the decentralized version of a board of directors plus shareholders, a DO is the decentralized version of the executive team plus contributors themselves.

## Roll-out

We are testing Coordinape in phases to understand the social dynamics. For the first phase of its development, Coordinape is being built to tackle a key pain-point for Yearn: community grants. We have tested our proof of concept compensation mechanic, the “gifting circle,” over several trial periods at Yearn, including dedicated circles for specific groups and processes. Now, we are opening the alpha version to select partners for their use.

## Development

Coordinape is currently implemented off-chain, to allow rapid changes and iteration as we research the best applications of core ideas. Simultaneously, we are working on an on-chain version, to be implemented on a layer 2 EVM compatible side-chain as we launch our on-chain ETH L1 offering.


# Gift Circle

Coordinape’s core feature (central to the Alpha version) is the Gift Circle. The Gift Circle allows a group of DAO contributors to decentralize the payment process, identifying eachother’s value to the organization to create a compensation map.

This is done through a process of Gifting.

## The Gift Circle

An organization can stand up any number of Gift Circles, adding members through a decentralized process. During a set period of time (the Epoch), the group can perform the Gifting process, as follows:

At the start of the epoch, each member of the Circle receives a number non-divisible GIVE tokens (Determined by the Circle Admin) Members allocated their GIVE tokens to other members over the course of the epoch to reward them for the value they bring to Yearn Members can adjust their allocations up until the end of the epoch They can add notes to their allocations if they wish At the end of the epoch, all allocated GIVE tokens become locked (now called GET tokens), and all unallocated GIVE tokens are burned Budget distribution is then formulated according to the percentage of total GET tokens that each member of the circles has received.

## Example

* Joe receives 75 GETs over the epoch from his colleagues,
* Total GETs allocated during the epoch are 1500,
* Total Contributor Budget is 50,000 USDC
* Joe is sent 2,500 USDC (0.05 of Budget).


# How To Use Coordinape

En esta sección encontrarás un resumen de como utilizar la aplicación web de Coordinape.

## Selección de Círculos

Al visitar por primera vez el sitio web de Coordinape es necesario que conectes tu billetera virtual. Si no logras acceder, probablemente tu billetera eth no ha sido añadida a un “gift circle” o círculo de regalos.

Si deseas crear un nuevo círculo, por favor sigue las siguientes instrucciones el sitio de Coordinape [Permissionless Circles](/spanish/welcome/permissionless_circle)

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-eaa5b948d19a0e659930b700ba5a3a5a4bb0b6ae%2FHow_to_Coordinape1.jpg?alt=media)

Si tienes acceso a uno o más círculos lo podrás ver en la página de selección de círculos.

Por favor ten en cuenta que tendrás que conectar tu billetera virtual cuando accedas a un círculo por primera vez.

## Asignar

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9637c82de1ae66ed6b5bca295e9bf126dd05de76%2FHow_to_Coordinape4.jpg?alt=media)

### Mi Epoch

La primera vez que utilices Coordinape se te dirá que respondas un par de preguntas, las cuales ayudarán a tus colegas a determinar como asignarte “GIVEs”.

La primera es una declaración de trabajo durante el epoch. En este campo puedes poner cualquier actividad que realizaste. Es público a leer para todos los del círculo y puede ser utilizado para detallar el trabajo que has hecho en el mes o para aclarar por lo que se te ha compensado y por lo que quieres ser compensado en Coordinape.

La segunda pregunta es si vas a optar (Opt in) o no (Opt out) a recibir GIVEs para este epoch.

* Si optas por no aceptarlas (*Opt Out*), quiere decir que tienes otras fuentes de ingresos los cuales son significativos, y no deberías recibir asignaciones de grants para contribuyentes. Será imposible para otros lograr asignarte GIVEs.
* si optas por aceptarlas (*Opt In*), serás capaz de recibir subvenciones. Puedes utilizar la declaración de perfil para detallar el motivo por el cual otros deberían asignarte.

Cualquiera de estas configuraciones se pueden cambiar al acceder a tu perfil en la pagina de asignaciones, lo puedes hacer en el transcurso del epoch, o para futuros epochs. Si cambias tu estado a “Opt Out” después de recibir GIVE durante un epoch, se devolverá a su remitente.

## Página de Selección de Equipo

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-7fd97bfd203b51bd823ddf45151a96195fcc9fd8%2FHow_to_Coordinape5.jpg?alt=media)

Como siguiente paso se te pedirá que utilices la página de selección de equipo. Esta página te permitirá mantener una lista reducida de contribuyentes, con los que ya has trabajado de cerca y quieres recompensar.

En esta página puedes seleccionar cualquier número de contribuyentes, clasificarlos o buscarlos, para así encontrar quienes son las personas que más has interactuado.

* Los contribuyentes se enlistan con el número actual de GIVE que les has asignado, así puedes observar quienes ya has incluido en tu asignación.
* Si eliminas a un contribuyente de tu lista después de asignarles un GIVE, ese GIVE se te devolverá (junto con el epoch activo).
* Después de seleccionar tu lista inicial puedes regresar a editar la página de equipo en cualquier momento, enlazada desde el menú principal para así editar tu grupo.

## Página de Asignación

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-b0d7f6a4bbc19b3ecbf902df257181d17079ac37%2FHow_to_Coordinape6.jpg?alt=media)

La página de asignación te permite recompensar a los compañeros de equipo que has seleccionado enviándoles GIVEs.

Así es como puedes hacerlo:

* Navega por la pagina de los contribuyentes y accede a sus perfiles.

# Who To Gift

The purpose of the gift circle is to reward all the ways value is brought to your DAO. Over the course of the epoch, each member should allocate their GIVE tokens to other members using whatever logic that makes sense to them with the goal of making sure valuable contributions are recognized and compensated as accurately as possible.

The goal is not to share money equally, give from obligation, or to pay people for spending time within the organization (unless you think that is valuable). The goal is to reward valuable contributions. If someone doesn’t get any GIVE tokens, that’s OK. Maybe they were busy that month? Or maybe they aren’t bringing value. There is nothing wrong with that.

Use your own judgment in allocating GIVEs. In general, give them when you have first-hand experience of people creating value. If you are working with someone on a yearn project and you think they did a good job, allocate some GIVEs.

Try not to allocate GIVEs based on who is “supposed” to get them, or based on hype. Give them where you see value happen. Give them to people that help you.

Don’t worry too much about getting the numbers right, go with your heart.

3. Click Save
4. You can also delete any Epoch that's not active.

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-335fc949a2e328aa8ab71e137528fd25aca57d4a%2FEpoch%20Settings.jpg?alt=media) ![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-290bf264f8713e8d462e351ab41610a958bd9103%2FEpoch%20Settings2.jpg?alt=media)

### Editing User Settings

1. After the initial upload of users may be edited by clicking the pencil next to their name![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9c6ee076d550803c1d1071e277e021012d49bbec%2FUser%20View.jpg?alt=media)
2. Then you can enter their name, starting tokens, admin status, force opt-out, and whether or not they can send GIVE ![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-3e04c6d1ad75375c6eaab4dd08f960a94a27cffa%2FEdit%20User.jpg?alt=media)
3. Force Opt Out will prevent the user from receiving Give. The user will be alerted to this change via the Telegram Bot, and on the allocations page. If they have had any give allocated prior to making that save it will all be removed, and users who had allocated to them will have to re-allocate to other users.![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-5ea725a8431ef06248e78112e8e45e4a9c3b16fd%2FOpt%20Out.jpg?alt=media)
4. You can also delete users from the Circle by clicking the trashcan.

### At the end of an epoch export a CSV of the epoch data for analysis and distribution.

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-028063560e26a5d1482fd8845b9dc879c7ff3729%2FExport.jpg?alt=media)Pro tip- If you

You can use either the [dispers.app](https://disperse.app) or the Multi distribute in Gnosis safe to distribute you allocations

In the Disperse app after you have your csv you can distribute the tokens you wish to allocate by pasting the token address into the token address section

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-77584bf732b04398fed8e1d0b670bd9fb48f6138%2Fimage.png?alt=media)

Pro-tip!

> If you right click and copy the url of the export CSV button and add
>
> "\&grant={total\_grant\_amt}" where {total\_grant\_amt} is replaced by the number of tokens you want to distribute
>
> to the end of your link it will download the csv with the distributed amount already divvied up for you
>
> <img src="https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9ca5748325d2fe564495fdd8d786d3daa3942fa7%2Fimage.png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="original">

Then you'll need to take the address and the amount and paste it into the box below.

When you're done make sure it looks ok and then click approve and then disperse token

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-549f57d071a64e526f8f0ee8a5cbee117b9542e6%2Fimage.png?alt=media)

### Best Practices

The best practices will vary from team to team. In general we find teams that communicate their goals for using Coordinape to their contributors will have a better experience than teams that start circles without communicating to their users what

\*\*Team Size \*\*

Team sizes can range from 2-200+ but we find it's easier to allocate to smaller teams (<20) so the users can have some interaction with most of the members of the team.

**Compensation Amounts**

The amount of compensation for each epoch can vary, it can be zero, it can be infinity.

Before our on chain launch there is no escrow feature so the compensation will be distributed by the admin after the epoch ends.

Once on chain, funds for epochs will be escrowed in the Ape Vaults, and automatically made available to claim or distribute at the end of the epoch after the admin approves the distributions.

**Use Cases We've seen**

* Giving to Contributors
* Giving to Projects
* Giving to other circles


# Permissionless Circles

For the last few months we have been diligently working towards full permissionlessnes (It's a word, don't spellcheck it), and on chain implementation.

As one more step torwards permissionlessness we are happy to release Permissionless Circles!

Now **anyone** can spin up a new circle by going to <https://coordinape.com> and connecting their wallet.

If you're not already in a circle you will be prompted to create a new circle. ![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-57caecb40316861241f3f869fff60fd7ac0594d9%2FWelcome.png?alt=media)

*If you were expecting to be in a circle and aren't please contact your circle admin so they can get your address fixed*

If you're already in a circle you can create a new circle by navigating to <https://app.coordinape.com/new-circle>

If you're an admin of a circle you can click the create

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-f9a989ba50708ca9176844e241b6919db4a6c093%2FAdmin%20Create.png?alt=media)

Clicking on the **Start a Circle** button will take you to the screen where you can create your circle.

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-f6b6adf44cc957a5500d9fff13e9832d04e9420f%2FCircle%20Details.png?alt=media)

The fields on this screen will be the fields used when you start your circle they can be changed once the circle is created, but only by the circle admin.

* **Username:** This will be how other users will see your name in the circle. (If your already in other circles please use the exact same name used in the other circles.)
* **ETH address:** This is derived from the wallet you're currently connected to Coordinape with
* **Circle Name:** This will be the name of the Circle that your users will select.

  *(EG Coordinape has a Contributors circle)*
* **Organization name:** This is the higher level to your circle that will eventually encompass all of the circles within an organization.

  *(EG Yearn has Strategists, Community, and 003 Circles, and Bankless has a circle for their guilds, KrauseHouse has circles for their projects)*

  The name you put here will need to be verified by the Coordinape Team to prevent spoofing another Team.

The rest of the fields are informational, and help us know how your using Coordinape so we have a better idea of how we can serve you.

In the **How can we contact you** field, if your leaving your discord handle please use this format *name#1234* so we can make sure to connect to the correct person.

After you click **Launch Circle** you're in!

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-acbb83f212123b5fdf5933aed5010c2e5750134c%2FCircle%20Success.png?alt=media)

You've created your first circle and your one step closer to compensating and encouraging your team!

All that's left to do is [add your team and schedule your first epoch!](https://docs.coordinape.com/welcome/admin_info)

Thanks for letting us be a part of what you're doing! We can't wait to see what your teams will accomplish!


# Vouching

### New Feature: The Vouching System

The DAO landscape is founded on self management and contribution, and we often hear the question: how should new contributors be inducted into a Gift Circle? While the borders of DAO membership might be as simple as landing in a Discord server or collecting NFTs or tokens, the additional trust layer of joining a circle to GIVE or receive may have different considerations. This may be performed by consensus, self determination, admin decisions or a blend of the three. Coordinape leaves this up to you.

Up to now, the Coordinape application has only allowed circle access via admin controls. This will likely always be a useful option, and some circles may choose to maintain this practice alone in an ongoing fashion (which, of course, we will support).

However, just as DAOs often form by autonomy and osmosis, we wanted to include more decentralized options by which a circle can grow. Our new Vouching system allows members to onboard new collaborators through a simple and flexible consensus mechanism. With Vouching, circles may determine their porosity via threshold settings, and contributors in a circle can actively engage in the management of its growth.

### Here’s how it works:

## Setting Up Vouching for your Circle

Via admin controls, a circle admin can decide to enable or disable vouching. Admins can also set the number of vouches that are needed for circle entry, the period of time a nominee remains available to vouch, and some descriptive text for the module.

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-871eacbcde0d82b33227a78b836a969dd728b7b0%2Fvouching-admin2.jpg?alt=media)

A vouch is a vote by a circle contributor to invite new members. Vouching can be as little as 1 vouch needed (any contributor can add other contributors) or could be set so that every member of the circle must vote to add a new member. If the minimum threshold of vouches is met, the contributor can gain access to the circle.

## Nominating a Contributor

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-e1ef14154d444b5bb27850e21547b2a9a4e0e5a5%2Fvouching-process.jpg?alt=media)

Usually, the vouching process will start on the social layer, via conversation or collaboration leading to a realization that someone in the community should added to a circle. When this happens, any member of the circle can nominate the provisional new contributor. They will need to add the member’s ETH address, name (such as a Discord / Telegram username) and a statement about why they are nominating.

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9d30355e55fd23ccdfa2e0df5197f053c28bf2e4%2Fvouching-nominate2.jpg?alt=media)

## Vouching

Once this has been performed, other circle members will see that the potential collaborator has been nominated, and they can take the step of Vouching for the member if they so chose.

![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-e587e13f0294938dc942683da40be209a59d1fb0%2Fvouching-vouch2.jpg?alt=media)

If the new contributor is vouched for by enough of the circle’s current contributors to hit the circle’s vouching threshold, they are added to the circle and can log in with their favorite wallet app, set up profiles and begin to receive or send GIVE.

Future features will build on this process, including the addition of more surgical toggles that can determine the status of new members. And, admins still have the ability to remove members if mistakes are made. We at Coordinape are particularly excited about how this new module might aid DAOs in bootstrapping their communities and letting contributors participate in the active growth of their working teams. Please feel free to give it a try, or ask for more information in our Discord.


# Discord Bot

Coordinape was built initially for Yearn Finance, a DAO that heavily uses Telegram. Hence, our bot features have (until now) been centered around that platform. Now, we've begun to port our bot to Discord, and added easy webhook integration functions to the Coordinape admin panel. Read on for an overview and how to set it up. More features will be added to the bot over time.

### What can the Discord Bot do?

* Caesar can let your discord know when a users has opted out of a current epoch, and how much give was refunded. ![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-cce3b4316327effec20509b552af3c83954127ea%2FBot%20Opted%20Out.jpg?alt=media)
* Inform users that an epoch is active ![](https://123177003-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F20LIqazlnBQbhBBUTWug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-08a8aae9bf7f7871854f77bfb15b8ce1fc7b78ad%2FBot%20Comment.jpg?alt=media)
* Let users know when the epoch ends

#### BOOM! You now have Caesar helping you keep track of active Epochs, giving you a heads up when users make allocations, and letting you know if a user opts out. We'll be adding features to the bot over time, but in the meantime we hope you enjoy this functionality!

If you appreciate this make sure to let Zashton know!

*You may need to enter developer mode in discord to add the bot*

### Intros + What are you excited about Coordinape?

Coordinape Team Intros

#### Reese

Discord manager, Dashboard builder, QA, troubleshooting

#### Zakku

Cofounder,

#### Zemm

Cofounder, Artist, Collaboration specialist, Contributor at Yearn, helping with legal/investment, and development processs

#### Alex

Product designer, interface designer, into ETH and DAO's since 2017, excited about Coordinape because it lets people compete with the mega-corps

#### Lawis

Formerly MakerDAO, but have been with opensource co's for quite some time. Have a lot of experience with coordinating teams across the globe

#### AK

Building a DAO without relying on a centralized system is exciting.

### Community Memebers

#### ProjectEqual

Finance Guy, invovled with several DAO's, and the complexity causes chaos, looking forward to Coordinape helping streamline the DAO operations.

#### Sam

Harmony Blockchain- Involved with Tezos since 2017- DAO-ify the Harmony Project, trying to decentralize the project. So much baggage with the traditional orgs slowing down the process. Being able to decentralize payroll is going to be fantastic, wanting to give more places to implement Coordinape and work together with Coordinape

#### MKKoll

Pooltogether DAO, First epoch running for a month! 18 members in this first circle. Seems to be promoting the right kinds of work. Per the structure of Coordinape, some is needed, too much would constrain what's being done (Oops is the Coordinape Admin)

### How would you like to contribute?

We need Dev help, we need content, Meme's, docs. Really whatever you're excited to do for Coordinape would be welcomed.

* Zakku, a little bit of a decentralized LinkedIn, giving DAOs data points for finding users who are adding value across DAOs.

We're talking to a lot of the DID teams, to see how we can integrate with these teams and how we can help build out the identity and Proof of Work (Punny)

How do we battle harden Coordinape, people within DAOs have to have some level of trust in eachother to get more work done together. We hope this will improve the culture of DAO's

* Zemm with the transition to the CCC (Coordinape Community Circle)

We're in the position that we've received some grants and have the option now to open the door to contributors

We're hoping to have people contribute and then get added to the circle

* MKKOLL

Leaving it subjective is good, but it'd be great if we could link in with discord to be able to help guide allocations prompting.

* Metafactory- Uses sourcecred that determines how much give the users can give

We want to incentivize impact not just input.

Born out of Yearn, so very telegram focused, we're building out that functionality for discord

Open call for people who want to help build to tools for DAO's we'd love to have you.

### What Coordinape Needs

* We need QA!
* We need people who are passionate about DAOS
* We need user stories!

### Where we're at now:

Easing off of the number of people who we're on boarding, as we focus more on making our way on chain.

We're restricting this to just teams who will be compensating their users as well as thanking their users, so we don't have a lot of teams just testing right now it's actually being used.

* Pool-together a lot of users have chosen to opt out, which was surprising. They're doing a month long epoch but that feels too long they're looking at bi-weekly epochs for the next one.
* Coordinape The way Yearn does it is one week epochs, compensating users for the prior months efforts.

# Bienvenue sur Coordinape

Coordinape est une plateforme permettant aux DAOs de distribuer facilement et équitablement des récompenses aux contributeurs. Les subventions communautaires, les salaires internes et les projets spéciaux peuvent tous être encouragés et récompensés par la communauté elle-même. Au lieu d'avoir des comités votant les récompenses ou d'avoir une "boîte noire" opaque, les contributeurs eux-mêmes peuvent récompenser rapidement et de manière transparente la valeur qu'ils voient être créée.

## Vision <a href="#vision" id="vision"></a>

La promesse des DAOs est une collaboration décentralisée, où des équipes de personnes peuvent résoudre ensemble des problèmes difficiles et partager les récompenses de leur travail. Au fur et à mesure que le potentiel révolutionnaire des DAOs devient de plus en plus évident, leurs défis et leurs limites le deviennent aussi, en particulier pour ceux qui opèrent en leur sein. Coordinape vise à rendre l'expérience des personnes travaillant dans des DAOs plus dynamique, enrichissante et équitable.

Coordinape permet d'accroitre la prise de décision par la communauté. De façon simple, vous demandez à tous les membres de la communauté, qui font du bon travail, leurs avis. De façon collective cela donnera une bonne idée de la valeur du travail de chacun et des membres qui devraient être le plus récompensés. Au fil du temps, cela fournit également des informations précieuses pour la DAO sur les types de travaux prioritaires, ce que la communauté trouve le plus précieux et qui sont les principaux contributeurs dans ces différents domaines. L'affichage visuel et partagé permet également à tous les membres de la communauté de voir qui travaille sur quoi et de trouver des opportunités de collaborations ou de réduire la duplication des efforts.

L'accent est actuellement mis sur le développement des "gift circles " pour la distribution des récompenses, mais des fonctionnalités sont ajoutées en permanence afin que la budgétisation, le recrutement et l'intégration, la hiérarchisation des projets et les investissements puissent tous être effectués sur la plate-forme.

## **Comment ça marche ?** <a href="#how-it-works" id="how-it-works"></a>

Coordinape est actuellement implémenté en tant que "off-chain alpha". Mais nous développons actuellement une version on-chain, en utilisant un L2 ou une side-chain compatible EVM.

Coordinape est construit autour de cercles (Circles) - des groupes de participants à la DAO qui souhaitent distribuer des fonds via un processus de don décentralisé. Chaque cercle peut définir les règles de participation - il peut développer son réseau sans autorisation, définir des paramètres autour de certains éléments et de leurs mécanismes et ajouter la visibilité au network, que ce soit via une administration centralisée ou une gouvernance interne.

Les cercles fonctionnent avec des Epochs : périodes de temps pendant lesquelles les membres (contributeurs) peuvent s'envoyer des jetons GIVE, qui représentent l'allocation budgétaire totale de ce cercle. Nous envisageons les Epochs comme des événements mensuels, où les contributeurs peuvent prendre en compte les collaborations, l'entraide mutuelle et la poursuite de la mission de la DAO au cours de cette période. Chaque membre se voit attribuer un montant fixe de GIVE (100 par défaut) et peut envoyer librement n'importe quelle quantité de ces jetons aux autres membres du Cercle au cours de l'Epoch. Les membres peuvent également se retirer (opt-out) s'ils reçoivent un financement externe, ce qui leur permet de distribuer des GIVE mais de ne pas en recevoir. Les GIVE n'ont aucune valeur s'ils ne sont pas donnés à un autre membre du Cercle . Cela ne sert donc à rien de les garder en espérant les revendre. Ce processus de don définit les récompenses de chaque membre à partir du budget du cercle.

À la fin de l'Epoch, le GIVE que chaque membre a reçu peut être échangé contre un montant au prorata du budget mensuel de la trésorerie.

## **En savoir plus** <a href="#learn-more" id="learn-more"></a>

Coordinape est actuellement dans une phase alpha, travaillant avec des protocoles sélectionnés, comme Yearn par exemple pour développer et améliorer l'expérience. Une version publique sera bientôt disponible.​

### Bienvenue sur Coordinape

Cette section de la doc a été ecrite pour les organisations qui découvrent Coordinape. Suivez les liens ci-dessous pour en savoir plus sur le principe général et la vision de Coordinape, comment utiliser l'application et connaitre les meilleures pratiques. Si vous avez des questions ou si quelque chose ne semble pas claire, veuillez nous contacter via notre [discord](https://discord.gg/PjWyE2eG)!


# Vision

### Construire les opérations des DAOs <a href="#user-content-building-dao-operations" id="user-content-building-dao-operations"></a>

Les DAOs ont révolutionné notre capacité à coordonner la prise de décision via le vote avec des jetons, mais les lacunes de ces vastes mécanismes de recherche de consensus sont devenues apparentes alors que nous les avons mis à l'épreuve dans des centaines de communautés au cours de l'année écoulée.

Alors que les DAO sont souvent utilisées pour gérer les nombreuses décisions opérationnelles d'un protocole en pleine croissance, telles que l'embauche et la rémunération, le détenteur moyen de jeton manque souvent de temps ou d'expertise pour apporter sa pièce à l'édifice. Il va donc le plus souvent, soit s'abstenir, soit approuver des initiatives basées sur la confiance, ou le manque de confiance, dans l'équipe.

Les DAO résolvent la moitié des problèmes que les réseaux décentralisés rencontrent, en définissant la gouvernance. Coordinape est une plateforme DO (decentralized operation = opération décentralisée) qui vise à résoudre l'autre moitié : une structure pour prendre des décisions opérationnelles au sein d'une équipe de contributeurs. Si une DAO est la version décentralisée d'un conseil d'administration, plus les actionnaires, une DO est la version décentralisée de l'équipe de direction, plus les contributeurs eux-mêmes.

### Disponible maintenant <a href="#user-content-roll-out" id="user-content-roll-out"></a>

Nous testons Coordinape par phases pour comprendre la dynamique sociale. Pour la première phase de son développement, Coordinape veut s'attaquer à un problème clé pour Yearn : les subventions communautaires. Nous avons réalisé une "preuve de concept" et testé notre mécanisme de compensation, le « cercle du don », sur plusieurs périodes, y compris des cercles dédiés à des groupes et des processus spécifiques. Maintenant, nous ouvrons la version alpha afin de sélectionner des partenaires, pour qu'ils puissent la tester.

### Développement <a href="#user-content-development" id="user-content-development"></a>

Coordinape est actuellement implémenté off-chain, pour permettre des changements et des itérations rapides, afin de pouvoir tester simplement et rapidement les meilleures solutions pour nos idées originelles. Simultanément, nous travaillons sur une version on-chain qui sera implémentée sur une chaîne latérale compatible EVM sur Layer 2 lors du lancement de notre offre bêta.


# Gift Circle: Cycle de récompenses

La fonctionnalité principale de Coordinape (au cœur de la version Alpha) est le **Gift Circle**. Le Gift Circle permet à un groupe de contributeurs de la DAO de décentraliser le processus de paiement, en identifiant la valeur de chacun afin de créer une répartition des rémunérations.

Cela se fait à travers un processus de Don (Gifting).

### Le Gift Circle: Répartition des dons <a href="#user-content-the-gift-circle" id="user-content-the-gift-circle"></a>

Une organisation peut créer un nombre illimité de Gift Circles, en ajoutant des membres via un processus décentralisé. Pendant une période de temps définie (Epoch), les membres de ce Cercle (Circle) peuvent effectuer des dons (Gifting) de la façon suivante :

Au début de l'epoch, chaque membre du cercle reçoit 100 jetons GIVE (non divisibles). Les membres doivent attribuer leurs jetons GIVE à d'autres membres au cours de l'epoch pour les récompenser du travail qu'ils effectuent et de la valeur qu'ils apportent à Yearn. Ils peuvent ajouter des notes à leurs allocations s'ils le souhaitent pour remercier un autre membre. À la fin de l'epoch, tous les jetons GIVE alloués sont verrouillés (désormais appelés jeton GET), et tous les tokens GIVE non alloués sont brûlés. Le budget est alors distribué en fonction du pourcentage du total des tokens GET que chaque membre du cercle a reçu.

### Exemple <a href="#user-content-example" id="user-content-example"></a>

* Joe reçoit 75 GIVE de ses collègues,
* Le total des GIVE alloués au cours de l'epoch est de 1500,
* Le budget total pour les contributeurs est de 50 000 USDC
* Joe reçoit 2 500 USDC (5% du budget).


# Comment utiliser Coordinape

Dans cette section, vous trouverez un aperçu de l'utilisation de l'application web de Coordinape. Nous avons également réalisé une vidéo de présentation que peut vous être utile !

### Sélection du Cercle (circle) <a href="#user-content-circle-selection" id="user-content-circle-selection"></a>

Lors de votre première visite sur le site Coordinape, vous devrez connecter votre portefeuille. Si vous cela ne fonctionne pas, votre portefeuille Eth n'a probablement pas encore été ajouté à un cercle. Contactez votre administrateur si tel est le cas.

Si vous souhaitez créer un nouveau cercle, veuillez suivre ces instructions :  &#x20;

#### Mon epoch (My Epoch)

La première fois que vous utilisez Coordinape, on vous demandera de répondre à quelques questions qui aideront vos collègues à déterminer comment vous DONNER.

Le premier est une déclaration d'époque. Cela peut être n'importe quoi. Il est public à lire par tous les membres du Cercle et peut être utilisé pour détailler le travail que vous avez effectué ce mois-ci ou clarifier ce pour quoi vous avez été indemnisé et ce pour quoi vous souhaitez être indemnisé dans Coordinape.

La deuxième question est de savoir si vous souhaitez vous inscrire ou vous désinscrire de la réception de GIVE pour cette époque.

* Si vous *Opt Out*, vous signalez que vous avez d'autres sources de revenus chez Yearn qui sont importantes, et vous ne devriez pas recevoir d'allocations de subventions aux contributeurs. Il sera impossible pour les autres de vous donner.
* Si vous *Opt In*, vous pourrez recevoir des subventions. Vous pouvez utiliser la déclaration de profil pour détailler pourquoi.

L'un ou l'autre de ces paramètres peut être modifié au cours de l'époque, ou pour les époques futures, en accédant à votre profil sur la page d'allocation pour les modifier. Si vous changez votre statut en Opt Out après avoir reçu GIVE pendant une époque, tout GIVE que vous avez accumulé reviendra à ses expéditeurs.

## La page d'équipe (Team Page)

\

Vous serez ensuite invité à utiliser la page de Sélection d'équipe (Team Page). Cette page vous permettra de choisir une petite liste de contributeurs, avec lesquels vous avez travaillé en étroite collaboration et que vous souhaitez récompenser.

Sur cette page, vous pouvez sélectionner n'importe quel nombre de contributeurs, les trier ou chercher directement un membre avec son nom, pour trouver ceux avec lesquels vous avez le plus interagi.

* Le nombre de GIVE déjà alloué à chaque contributeur est indiqué pour que vous puissiez voir y retrouver plus facilement.
* Si vous supprimez un contributeur de votre liste après lui avoir attribué des GIVE, ses GIVE vous seront restitués (lors de l'epoch en cours).
* Après avoir sélectionné votre liste initiale, vous pouvez revenir sur cette page pour modifier votre équipe.

# Qui récompenser ?

Le but du Gift Circle est de récompenser toutes les formes de plus-values apportées à votre DAO. Au cours de l'epoch, chaque membre doit allouer ses jetons GIVE à d'autres membres en utilisant la logique qui lui convient, dans le but de s'assurer que les contributions précieuses sont reconnues et compensées aussi précisément et honnêtement que possible.

L'objectif n'est pas de partager le budget de manière égale, de donner par obligation ou de payer des personnes qui passent seulement du temps au sein de l'organisation (à moins que vous ne pensiez que ce ne soit utile). L'objectif est de récompenser les contributions précieuses et pertinentes. Si quelqu'un n'obtient aucun jeton GIVE, ce n'est pas grave. Peut-être était-il occupé ce mois-là ? Ou peut-être qu'il n'apporte aucune valeur. Il n'y a rien de mal à cela.

Utilisez votre propre jugement lors de l'attribution de GIVE. En général, donnez-les lorsque vous avez une interaction directe avec la personne et que cette dernière crée de la valeur. Si vous travaillez avec quelqu'un sur un projet ambitieux et que vous pensez qu'il a fait du bon travail, donnez lui quelques GIVE.

Essayez de ne pas attribuer des GIVE en fonction de qui est « censé » les obtenir, ou en fonction du "battage médiatique", la répartition ne doit pas être un concours de popularité. Distribuez-les en fonction de la valeur ajoutée apportée par les autres membres ou donnez-les aux personnes qui vous aident.

Ne vous inquiétez pas trop, utilisez votre cœur ❤️.

# Bot Discord

### Nouvelle Fonctionnalité : Le Bot Discord

Coordinape a été initialement conçu pour Yearn Finance, une DAO qui utilise énormément Telegram. Par conséquent, nos fonctionnalités de bot ont (jusqu'à présent) été centrées sur cette plate-forme. Nous avons maintenant commencé à développer notre bot pour Discord et avons ajouté des fonctions d'intégration webhook faciles au panneau d'administration de Coordinape. Lisez la suite pour en savoir plus et savoir comment le configurer. Plus de fonctionnalités seront ajoutées au bot au fil du temps.

### Qu'est-ce que le Bot Discord peut faire ?

* *Caesar* peut informer votre discord lorsqu'un utilisateur s'est retiré (opt-out) d'un epoch en cours et combien de GIVE ont été remboursés.

Nous ajouterons des fonctionnalités au bot au fil du temps, mais en attendant, nous espérons que vous apprécierez ces fonctionnalités !!

Si vous appréciez *ce Bot*, faite le savoir à Zashton !

Vous devrez peut-être utiliser le mode développeur (*developer mode)* sur Discord pour ajouter le bot


# Permissionless Circles

Au cours des derniers mois, nous avons travaillé d'arrache-pied pour obtenir être full permissionlessnes  (sans permission), et sur l'implémentation "on-chain" .

Pour faire un pas de plus vers l'absence de permission, nous sommes heureux de lancer les Permissionless Circles !

Désormais, **tout le monde** peut créer un nouveau cercle en allant sur <https://coordinape.com> et en connectant son portefeuille.

Si vous ne faites pas déjà partie d'un cercle, vous serez invité à en créer un nouveau.&#x20;

# Se porter garant (Vouching)

#### Nouvelle Fonctionnalité : Le système de Vouching

Le principe d'une DAO est fondé sur l'autogestion et la contribution, et nous entendons souvent la question : comment les nouveaux contributeurs peuvent-ils rejoindre un cercle sur coordinape ? Bien que les limites à l'adhésion d'une DAO puissent être aussi simples que d'atterrir sur un serveur Discord ou de collecter des NFTs ou des jetons, l'étape de confiance supplémentaire consistant à rejoindre un cercle pour donner ou recevoir des récompenses peut être plus compliquée à obtenir. Cela peut se faire par consensus, autodétermination, décisions administratives ou un mélange des trois. Coordinape vous laisse le choix.

Jusqu'à présent, l'application Coordinape n'autorisait l'accès au cercle que via un contrôle au niveau des administrateurs. Cela sera probablement toujours une option utile et choisie par beaucoup de projet.

Cependant, de la même façon que les DAO se constituent souvent en totale autonomie et osmose, nous voulions inclure des options plus décentralisées grâce auxquelles un cercle peut se développer. Notre nouveau système de **Vouching** permet aux membres d'intégrer de nouveaux collaborateurs grâce à un mécanisme de consensus simple et flexible. Avec le Vouching, les cercles peuvent déterminer leur "porosité" via des paramètres de seuil. Les contributeurs d'un cercle peuvent ainsi s'engager activement dans la gestion de sa croissance.

#### Voilà comment cela fonctionne :

### Paramétrer le Vouching pour vos Cerles

Via les commandes d'administration, un administrateur de cercle peut décider d'activer ou de désactiver le vouching. Les administrateurs peuvent également définir le nombre de vouches (recommandations) nécessaires pour entrer dans le cercle, la période pendant laquelle un candidat peut se porter garant et un texte descriptif pour le module.

[![](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/raw/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-admin2.jpg)](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/blob/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-admin2.jpg)

Un vouch est un vote d'un contributeur du cercle pour inviter un nouveau membre. Le vouching peut être réalisé lorsque seulement un membre vouch un nouveau membre (c’est-à-dire que tout contributeur peut ajouter d'autres contributeurs) ou peut être défini de sorte que tous les membres du cercle doivent voter pour ajouter un nouveau membre (toutes les possibilités entre ces 2 exemples sont bien entendu possibles). Si le seuil minimum de vouches est atteint, le contributeur peut accéder au cercle.

### Nominer un contributeur

[![](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/raw/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-process.jpg)](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/blob/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-process.jpg)

Habituellement, le processus de vouching commencera sur la couche sociale, via une conversation ou une collaboration menant à la prise de conscience qu'un membre de la communauté devrait être ajouté à un cercle. Lorsque cela se produit, tout membre du cercle peut désigner ce contributeur comme potentiel futur participant au cercle. Ils devront ajouter l'adresse ETH du membre, son nom (comme un nom d'utilisateur Discord / Telegram) et une description expliquant pourquoi ils le nomment.

[![](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/raw/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-nominate2.jpg)](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/blob/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-nominate2.jpg)

### Vouching

Une fois cela fait, les autres membres du cercle verront que le collaborateur potentiel a été nommé, et ils peuvent prendre l'initiative de se porter garant (vouching) pour le membre s'ils le souhaitent.

[![](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/raw/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-vouch2.jpg)](https://github.com/cryptoouf-blog/coordinape-french/blob/master/.gitbook/assets/vouching-vouch2.jpg)

Si le nouveau contributeur est supporté par suffisamment de contributeurs actuels du cercle pour atteindre le seuil de vouching du cercle, il est ajouté au cercle et peut se connecter avec sa "wallet app" préférée, configurer son profil et commencer à recevoir et à envoyer des GIVE.

Les fonctionnalités futures s'appuieront sur ce processus et incluront l'ajout d'options précises pouvant déterminer le statut des nouveaux membres. Il est important de noter que les administrateurs ont toujours la possibilité de supprimer des membres si des erreurs sont commises. Chez Coordinape, nous sommes particulièrement enthousiasmés par la façon dont ce nouveau module pourrait aider les DAO à lancer leurs communautés et à permettre aux contributeurs de participer à la croissance active de leurs équipes de travail. N'hésitez pas à essayer cette nouvelle fonctionnalité et à demander plus d'informations sur notre Discord.


# Community Calls


# Pourquoi Coordinape est dans mon cercle ?

Nous considérons Coordinape comme l'un des outils fondamentaux pour faire évoluer les DAO au niveau supérieur. Le fait que vous soyez ici, maintenant, en témoigne.

Pour le moment, nous avons choisi de renoncer à facturer des frais pour l'utilisation de Coordinape.

Nous avons, au contraire, décidé de faire en sorte que Coordinape fasse partie de tous les cercles en tant que participant. Donc, si vous pensez que Coordinape vous a apporté quelque chose et vous a permis de créer de la valeur, pour vous, votre équipe ou votre DAO, nous serions ravis de recevoir quelques GIVE.

Nous espérons que vous vous en êtes déjà rendu compte, il vaut mieux donner que recevoir !

### **Que va faire Coordinape avec vos jetons ?**

Tous les jetons reçus en cadeau atterriront dans la trésorerie de Coordinape. Nous sommes ravis de créer un panier extrêmement diversifié de jetons provenant de DAOs diverse grâce à ce processus, en plus de stablecoin que nous pouvons directement utiliser pour soutenir notre propre équipe. À l'avenir, nous allons réfléchir à une méthode pour gérer au mieux notre trésorerie, et pourrions même explorer la création d'un jeton de type index représentant un large échantillon du paysage DAO et DeFi.

### Allez-vous lire nos notes ?

Absolument ! Nous croyons au pouvoir des dons et sommes ravis de savoir comment nous avons pu vous aider dans le processus de compensation de votre DAO. Si vous ne pouvez pas nous envoyer de GIVE, nous apprécierons tout de même une petite note (c'est l'intension qui compte).

### Nous faire un retour

Si vous avez des suggestions ou des commentaires, nous aimerions les entendre. Faites-les sur notre channel « #feedback » sur Discord.

# Welcome to Coordinape

Coordinape is a platform for DAOs to easily and fairly distribute resources to contributors.

With Coordinape, communities can manage grants, salaries, and projects so that everyone involved can participate in rewarding and incentivizing each contribution.

Contributors transparently reward the value they see created in an organization. The reward-giving process is lean and allows anyone to quickly weight-in. No more cumbersome voting or black-box committees!

# Social Oracle™️ GIVE

Information about Coordinape GIVE on Base Chain via an EAS schema, generated from rich GIVE actions taken in CoLinks, Farcaster, and GIVE.party.

## Find Social Oracle on EAS

<https://base.easscan.org/schema/view/0x82c2ec8ec89cf1d13022ff0867744f1cecf932faa4fe334aa1bb443edbfee3fa>

## What is the Social Oracle?

Coordinape's recognition and reputation primitive [GIVE ](/colinks/give)is ONCHAIN! \
GIVE is a Permissionless Public Good reputation primitive that creates a valuable and trusted Social Oracle of connections and attestations from peer to peer about skills and experiences.

\
GIVEs created in [Farcaster](https://www.farcaster.xyz/), [CoLinks](https://colinks.coordinape.com/info), and [GIVE.party](https://colinks.coordinape.com/giveparty) now get written to [Base Chain](https://base.org) via attestations created with[ Ethereum Attestation Service (EAS)](https://attest.org/).  We've built GIVE as a reputation primitive and brought it onchain to make it universally accessible and integratable. &#x20;

## How can I use it?

### Integrate the Social Oracle

Coordinape creates attestations on behalf of authenticated users when they create and give GIVEs to other users. Therefore GIVEs "From" `onchain.coordinape.eth` are highly trustworthy. \
\
You can query any EAS Schema using the EAS GraphQL API. [Learn more here.](https://docs.attest.org/docs/developer-tools/api)

#### **Some of the possible ways to integrate the Social Oracle**

* **Resume or CV** - GIVE can act as an endorsement that a given person has a skill. The more GIVE about the skill, the more trusted the person is likely to be about that skill.&#x20;
* **Social and professional Discovery** - The network of GIVEs reveals much rich data about people and relationships. It's extremely easy to get leads for people who have specific skills or qualities using the Social Oracle.
* **Gating/Eligibility/qualification -** Since GIVE is on [BASE](https://base.org) , it's easily possible to gate web3 organizations, events, groups, and more by simply requiring that participants have enough onchain GIVE or GIVE from a particular source or GIVE of a particular skill. There a many possibilities!
* **Humanity Scoring** - Given the social oracle data, it's easy to create or add to formulas that can add to or even guarantee the likelihood that a user is actually a human.&#x20;

### Issue GIVE attestations

Anyone can openly use the [GIVE Schema](https://base.easscan.org/schema/view/0x82c2ec8ec89cf1d13022ff0867744f1cecf932faa4fe334aa1bb443edbfee3fa) to create GIVE attestations.&#x20;

Use the [GIVE Schema](https://base.easscan.org/schema/view/0x82c2ec8ec89cf1d13022ff0867744f1cecf932faa4fe334aa1bb443edbfee3fa) to issue GIVE attestations from your trusted organization to add more trusted data to the Social Oracle.\
*\*If your org/project plans to do this, feel free to reach out to us in our* [*Discord*](https://discord.gg/GFASZtq6Sw) *and we may be interested to integrate your GIVE data into our use of the Social Oracle.* <br>

# Setting up your Organization

You can set your Organization during the circle creation phase. This Organization will house all of your future Circles. You can do that from here [Create New Circle ](https://app.coordinape.com/new-circle)

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2F6EZ93PFpmzZF0sBUsTgJ%2FCreate%20Circle%20Darkmode.gif?alt=media&amp;token=3dae4a8b-ccb3-4895-bae3-247da4995dde" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Example:

Suppose you are a part of Acme DAO and have three teams within your organization.

You might set your Coordinape up like this.

#### **Acme DAO \[Organization]**

* Design Team \[Circle]
* Dev Team \[Circle]
* Community \[Circle]


# Managing Organization Membership

Members can be invited into Organizations without the need to be in Circles. Org members can see what's happening in the org and signal support for activity.

### What Org Members Can Do

Org membership enables higher transparency and increased engagement, by allowing all members to observe and emoji react to activity happening in the org.

### What Org Members Can See

* Activity Feeds of Circles and at the Org level
* Circle Membership rosters
* Circle Maps (which show epoch results)
* Profile pages of other Org Members

### What Org Members Cannot See

* Wallet addresses
* Admin Screens
* Allocation Views

## How to Invite Org Members

Circle Admins within the org have the right to invite members into the Org, via the Org membership list.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FDelEyfcMITkQYjAEbj19%2FScreenshot%202023-05-01%20at%205.19.38%20PM.png?alt=media&amp;token=5b484568-f365-45f4-a0b8-9db3ebbd4812" alt=""><figcaption><p>Org Members List</p></figcaption></figure>

### Invitation Methods:

#### 1. Manual Invitation

Just like adding circle members, admins can invite members to the Organization with their wallet address or ENS.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2F4H4e7ou4JXLcXmeS98DO%2FmanualInvite.png?alt=media&amp;token=f9fd7c86-8d5a-48f5-b2e2-70eec4ddb14e" alt=""><figcaption><p>Manual Invitation</p></figcaption></figure>

#### 2. CSV Import

Import a CSV list of your members with 2 columns: Name, Address

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FNZqmGM9lB0Dw81CqgWAn%2FCSVImport.png?alt=media&amp;token=042186a2-1e02-493e-afa7-a0c5a2c24c5f" alt=""><figcaption><p>CSV Import</p></figcaption></figure>

#### 3.Token Gating with Guild.xyz

Use [Guild.xyz](https://guild.xyz/) to create custom token gating rules for your Organization. \
*\*Note - Membership requirements are only checked at the time that the member uses the custom Guild invite link to enter the Org. Token ownership status is not checked in an ongoing basis. In other words, if a member who has joined through Guild requirements no longer has the Guild required token(s), Coordinape will NOT remove them from your Organization.*

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FTUVpJmJzewtxMvaZS2oh%2Fguildxyz.png?alt=media&amp;token=af408c67-84ac-4800-ad46-f71966c664ef" alt=""><figcaption><p>Guild.xyz</p></figcaption></figure>

#### 4. Invite Link

The most open way to allow members to join is to use an Invite Link. The invite link allows anyone with the link to enter your Organization.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FCW0DUs3hMo9514ifr7jM%2FinviteLink.png?alt=media&amp;token=65340219-8367-4a27-9907-09f836edce13" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

## Removing Org Members&#x20;

Circle admins can remove members from the Org Members page as long as the member is not a member of any circles.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fdx5NMMCXdoLjeobzz4oo%2FScreenshot%202023-05-01%20at%205.37.58%20PM.png?alt=media&amp;token=a763eac7-8b08-473c-9a2c-832245b509ae" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# Creating A Circle

Setup your Circle in Coordinape

## What's A Circle?

A Circle is equal to a team. Teams of people will allow you to compensate members within your organization.

### Circle Size

Circles can have 1-200+ members in them. We recommend Circles of at least **three members.** The closer the team members are, the more accurate the compensation process is.

*For more information on Circles*

# Add Team Members

Load up your circle with the people that matter

Once you've started your Circle, two members will be You and Coordinape.&#x20;

### Coordinape in Your Circle

> At Coordinape we believe that we are building something that will help propel our industry forward in the way we think about compensation.
>
> In an effort to ensure as many DAOs as possible have access to Coordinape we have decided to forgo charging a fee to use Coordinape.
>
> We've opted instead to rely on the gifts of the DAO's we provide value to.
>
> The address associated with the Coordinape user is our donation address we can accept donations on EVM compatible chains.

# Schedule an Epoch

Get the team started in Coordinape

To start the [allocation process](/get-started/get-started/new-coordinape-members/allocate-give), you need to schedule an Epoch. Epochs allow you to choose a date range you would like your team to allocate during. Like traditional pay periods, members complete work within the Epoch time frame, submit contributions, then get paid after the Epoch ends.

> EG: Yearn Finance does one week long epochs at the end of each month where the allocations are meant to cover the entire months work.
>
> Some DAO's who have been in operation for a while and are wanting to "Catch up" on contributions may choose to do a short Epoch to allocate for all work done in prior periods

Best practice is to add all team members to the Circle before starting your Epoch, but new members can be added during an active epoch if someone was missed.

**Starting an Epoch:**

1. **Set Start Date.** Choose the date you want the Epoch to start.
2. **Choose Epoch Length.** How long do you want this work period to last?
3. **Epoch Start Time.** How soon do you want your team to add contributions & allocating? *(Time is in UTC)*
4. **Should this Epoch repeat?** Do you want the Epoch to restart automatically?
5. **Save.** Are you ready to start?!

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FMoxbwphyvSPneJws5uJa%2FCreate%20Epoch.gif?alt=media\&token=e3e8848f-5f91-46e6-9303-2bf11e44f9c1)

### Edit Epoch

Once you save the Epoch, you will see the upcoming Epoch in the overview panel. You can edit Epochs before and after the start time. However, You cannot edit Epochs after they have ended.

![After you saved an eph](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2F2jOPpGyDJSiwIRmp9e1B%2FEdit%20Epoch.gif?alt=media\&token=6ce3641e-88df-4df9-bdd4-400498836add)

### **How long should your Epoch be?**

What length you choose will depend on the type of projects your team is working on and how often you prefer to pay your team.

#### Things to consider:

> **Recency Bias:** Members tend to allocate based on their recent experiences. If your Epochs are too long, members may forget about work completed at the beginning of the Epoch.

> **Process Fatigue:** Every Epoch requires your team to record contributions and allocate them to team members. If you have a large circle, the frequent allocation could lead to burnout.


# Contributions and Epoch Statements

How your Circles know what their members did

### Epoch Statements

Each Epoch will prompt users to enter their Epoch Statement, which should function as a summary of all the contributions that user made during the active epoch.&#x20;

### Contributions

During the Epoch your Circle Members will be able to add individual contributions that will reflect the various tasks they accomplished.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FKGn64YaS56MZsRRFb3lD%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=aacbbc8b-e2bb-42d0-9ae1-7400f589ab1e" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

(These contributions can also be populated via our [Integrations](/info/integrations) with web 3 work tracking tools like [Dework](/info/integrations/dework) and [Wonderverse](/info/integrations/wonderverse).)

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Epoch Statement" %}
During an active Epoch you can set your Epoch Statement. Your statement is public for anyone in the Circle and will show up on your card during the allocation phase for other users to view.&#x20;

The Epoch Statement details the work you have done this month or clarifies work that the DAO wants to compensate.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FsGGI5O3N4srQIAexqnbK%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=651906a8-309d-4481-9119-1c5eab5d369f" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

\
**Best Practices**\
It's best to summarize your work so that anyone from your team can understand what you did and its impact/goal. Quantify your work where ever possible for better understanding.

\
**Examples**

* Created the marketing plan for Coordinape, sent 6,000 tweets, and received 12,000 RTs
* Pushed 6 Github issues to allow us to unblock back-end work and resolve bugs impacting the user.
* Redesigned the landing page to guide users to the valuable part of our docs easier
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Contributions" %}
Users can enter contributions to easily track all of their contributions to the team.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FxdWJuEJKUebM0esXnYzv%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=be345f15-c601-4e8d-b46d-d34fe035790d" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Best Practice:**&#x20;

Enter a new contribution for the tasks that you complete, to add color to your epoch statement. The Epoch statement can function as a TLDR of all of your contributions.

**Examples**:

* Onboarding call with Bankless&#x20;
* Crafted Tweet thread for ETH Vaults
* Deployed Coordinape Vaults to new Chain
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Give Tokens" %}
**From the Members Page you can manage your Circle Member's settings**

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FIq2UpJKGDQyKWib2cSvq%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=61d8fc61-33dc-4463-a81a-4b13586a6977" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### Give Tokens

Decide if a user can Give tokens in this Epoch

#### Receive Tokens

Decide if a user can Receive tokens (Admin can lock a user from receiving as well)

#### Give Allotment

How many Give tokens this user can allocate

#### Fixed Payment

How much fixed payment this user will receive at the end of this Epoch.\

# Allocate GIVE

Reward and thank your fellow Contributors by allocating GIVE

### Showing Generosity

Coordinape empowers you to take part in decentralized payroll. Each GIVE token represents a percentage of your team's payroll budget.

Every Circle will likely have unique contribution guidelines; how you allocate in a dev Circle will differ from how you allocate in a marketing circle.

{% endcontent-ref %}

### Allocate GIVE

The Allocation Page allows you to appreciate the teammates you have selected by sending them GIVE and Notes. You can browse member Epoch Statements, and Contributions to help determine how much Give to allocate across your team.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2F7tUd1MjfY3eoyeUpopCE%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=4ef14817-6997-4736-af39-2e313e037ae4" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Appreciate Your Team

Allocate GIVE and type notes to send to contributors.

* Coordinape will reflect these allocations and notes in real-time.
* The recipients are the only ones who can see the allocated amounts and notes.
* You can adjust these gifts throughout the epoch.

It is advised not to allocate GIVEs based on appearance or equality. Instead, GIVE should be allocated according to the amount of value created by members.

### You can also see GIVE amount to allocate in the top left and GIVE received on the left hand side bar.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FNWPy3NwAWFexmQ6f0zUT%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=e392fb5b-8acd-4535-858a-6f3f282efe62" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# Review Distributions

After allocation, at the end of the Epoch, Review your team's allocations

Before distributing the funds to their contributors, the Admin's responsibility is to ensure that the allocations look appropriate.&#x20;

To do that go to the Epoch in question (Epoch 21 in this example) and click Review and Export

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FXDk6N0x5b4IVqry8pEW1%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=8f1c358a-0ac2-468b-85d8-b38309e08d45" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Review the allocations to make sure it looks like you would expect and then you can export the CSV&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FZc4Ul9OM9eqhQw8buOeU%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=3007dfde-c00d-43b0-ab77-f76b9949bcf8" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

# Admin Best Practices

Simple Rules of Thumb & Considerations

* [Circle Size](#circle-size)
* [Epoch Length](#how-long-should-your-epoch-be)&#x20;
* [Contributions](#your-contributions)&#x20;
* [Ways to Allocate ](#give-considerations)
* [Setting Team Goals ](#setting-team-goals)

## Circle Size

We recommend Circles of at least **three members.** The closer the team members are, the more accurate the compensation process is.

**For larger organizations, we recommend creating more smaller circles.**

#### Things to consider:

> **Work Opaqueness:** The larger a Circle is, the less accurate your team member's assessment of each other may be. Members tend to be the MOST familiar with the teammates' work they interact with the most often.&#x20;

> **Various Areas of Expertise:** Members do not always have experience with the effort required of all disciplines within the organization. For example, A developer may not know the rigor required of a marketer managing an active campaign. Due to this lack of experience, they may tend to under allocate to members of the marketing team.

### Use Cases: Setting up your Structure

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Core + Community" %}
If you have community members that casually contribute to the DAO and a Core team you would like to incentivize, you could set it up like this.

**Acme DAO \[Organization]**

* Community Members \[Circle]
* Acme Core \[Circle]

The community Circle can input contributions and then GIVE each other kudos and tokens. Then, after the Epoch, you can compensate the community for their work.

The core Circle can write notes on current projects and give kudos to hard-working members after your DAO could provide bonuses based on GIVE tokens.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Working Teams" %}
We recommend discipline-based teams if you want to set up a few operational teams within the same organization.&#x20;

Teams should be **no more than ten members** for the most accurate allocations. Each circle should have a team lead with an admin role.

**Acme DAO \[Organization]**

* Acme Developers \[Circle]
* Acme Designers \[Circle]
* Acme Marketing \[Circle]
* Acme Community \[Circle]
* Acme Operations \[Circle]
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Projects" %}
If you want to use Coordinape to empower your community to allocate funds to projects, you can set your organization up like this.

**Acme DAO \[Organization]**

* Projects \[Circle]
  * Members
    * Admin Opt-Out of receiving but GIVES to encourage the team&#x20;

This structure allows your DAO to use conviction voting to determine how to allocate project funding.

### **How long should your Epoch be?**

The length you choose will depend on the projects your team is working on and how often you prefer to pay your team.

#### Things to consider:

> **Recency Bias:** Members tend to allocate based on their recent experiences. If your Epochs are too long, members may forget about work completed at the beginning of the Epoch.

> **Process Fatigue:** Every Epoch requires your team to record contributions and allocate to team members. If you have a large circle, a frequent allocation process could lead to burnout.

### Your Contributions

At the beginning of each Epoch, your Circle will ask you to answer two questions, which will help your colleagues determine how to GIVE to you.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Epoch Statement" %}
Your statement is public for anyone in the Circle. In addition, the Epoch Statement details your work this month or clarifies the work that the DAO wants to compensate.

[Contributions and Epoch Statements](/get-started/epochs/recording-contributions)
{% endcontent-ref %}

## Ways to GIVE

The purpose of the Gift Circle is to reward all the ways value is brought to your DAO. Therefore, throughout the Epoch, each member should allocate their GIVE tokens to other members using whatever logic makes sense to them.&#x20;

Allocating GIVE should ensure that valuable contributions are recognized and compensated as accurately as possible. **Before starting an Epoch, you must guide your team on how best to allocate with the organization’s priorities in mind.**

### **GIVE Considerations**

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Impact" %}
**Impact:** You can allocate to team members who deliver work that positively impacts the betterment of the organization
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Cooperation" %}
**Cooperation:** How often does this member show up? Members can allocate to others who show up often and provide valuable feedback.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Effort" %}
**Effort:** You may consider rewarding members who have taken many steps to complete a task or worked through unique challenges.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Passion" %}
**Passion:** Is this member aligned with the mission of the organization? You can consider the level of passion and enthusiasm a member brings to the organization.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Try not to allocate GIVEs based on who is “supposed” to get them or member "hype." Instead, **GIVE** where you see value happen. GIVE to members that help you.

{% content-ref url="/pages/sEDgsTCizOtIqlbbJ7lC" %}
[GIVE in Gift Circles](/get-started/give)
{% endcontent-ref %}

## Setting Team Goals

The best practices for running Coordinape will vary from team to team. But, in general, we find that teams that **communicate** their goals for Coordinape to their contributors will have a better experience than teams that start Circles without communicating with their users.

So, when communicating to your teams, here are some things to make sure to mention:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="GIVE Eligibility  " %}

* Who should be eligible to send and receive GIVE?
* Should members compensated via grants or salaries be rewarded?
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Work Dates " %}

* Which dates should your contributors be thinking about when allocating?
* Should users consider all of the prior months when allocating?
* Should they only consider work that members completed?
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Contribution Impact" %}

* What type of activity would you like your contributors to be rewarding?
* Should a particular type of work be more valuable? (Devs or Business Development?)
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Compensation Method" %}

* How are allocations paid out?
* Will they be paid in stable coins or project tokens, or is your DAO just tracking contributions until they have a token to distribute?
  {% endtab %}
  {% endtabs %}

# Set Up Your Profile

Let your circles know who you are!

## Circle Profile

Your profile is consistent between Circles; if someone shares a Circle with you, they can view:

* Your Circle membership
* Your recent Epoch statements
* Your biography
* Your skills tags & links.
* The first time you log in you will be asked to update your profile name. This will be the name that's displayed whenever you log in with your address ![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fjr1qU6Yup1PgcpeSWA6y%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=4ee09e7f-c905-4526-bd1a-2f06eac540b8)

**Note:** We recommend using the same name/PFP in Coordinape as the one used in the communication channel (e.g., Discord) to make it easier for members to recognize each other.

# Record Contributions & Opt-in/out

Tell your team what you've done!

### Your Epoch Statement

During each [Epoch](/get-started/epochs) you will have the opportunity to summarize your contributions in by clicking on your name and entering an Epoch Statement. This will be displayed on your card when others are allocating to you.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FyBRldB7Gjy4l5QmTdrVQ%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=647d2207-81e2-42bc-b4ff-d34b346e5e30" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
🚨 NEW! 🚨   You can now add multiple contributions per epoch!
{% endhint %}

### Add Contributions

Contributions will show up on your card when others are allocating to you and will help them have a better idea of what you were working in during the last epoch.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FS9WWHwpboE2ODc8Rmhm9%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=65856a29-a4dd-46cc-bad0-0c1355d1bb19" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**How to add a contribution:**

1. Click Contributions from the menu bar
2. Click Add Contribution on the Contribution page
3. Enter your contribution and wait for the autosave indicator to say changes saved!

If you make a mistake or want to edit your contribution you can do that at any time during or before the epoch.&#x20;

### My Epoch

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Epoch Statement" %}
During an active Epoch you can set your Epoch Statement. Your statement is public for anyone in the Circle and will show up on your card during the allocation phase for other users to view.&#x20;

The Epoch Statement details the work you have done this month or clarifies work that the DAO wants to compensate.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FsGGI5O3N4srQIAexqnbK%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=651906a8-309d-4481-9119-1c5eab5d369f" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

\
**Best Practices**\
It's best to summarize your work so that anyone from your team can understand what you did and its impact/goal. Quantify your work where ever possible for better understanding.

\
**Examples**

* Created the marketing plan for Coordinape, sent 6,000 tweets, and received 12,000 RTs
* Pushed 6 Github issues to allow us to unblock back-end work and resolve bugs impacting the user.
* Redesigned the landing page to guide users to the valuable part of our docs easier
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Contributions" %}
Users can enter contributions to easily track all of their contributions to the team.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FxdWJuEJKUebM0esXnYzv%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=be345f15-c601-4e8d-b46d-d34fe035790d" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Best Practice:**&#x20;

Enter a new contribution for the tasks that you complete, to add color to your epoch statement. The Epoch statement can function as a TLDR of all of your contributions.

**Examples**:

* Onboarding call with Bankless&#x20;
* Crafted Tweet thread for ETH Vaults
* Deployed Coordinape Vaults to new Chain
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Receive Give" %}
You may wish not to receive GIVE during an Epoch. If that's' the case you can opt out by clicking no under receive Give, you'll still be in the Circle and able to allocate but others will not be able to Give to you.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2F2ATEyAKHbp30zuWb57nP%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=2d640a4f-7cda-4682-ac1a-a09235eb8229" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}


# Select Your Collaborators(Optional)

Who did you work with or who did you see adding value this Epoch

Circles sizes can range from 2-200+, but it's easier to allocate to smaller Circles(<20), so the users can interact with most of their Circle members. Smaller Circles also make giving/receiving tokens more fluid and more straightforward.

Circle selection influences the governance of allocations. For instance, if a group selects 80 members to allocate GIVE to, but each member is only working with 3-4 members, the circle may inadvertently become a "popularity contest" rather than allocation GIVE where value is being created.

You can help keep allocations happening where value is created by having your Circle select their Collaborators.

## Picking Collaborators

If your Circle has the **Select Teammates** option enabled, when you go to the Give tab you will see a Collaborators toggle at the top.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2F6MJCyi0kjhmHv2TNb9Gr%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=d9fa4b7d-bb63-48e8-a836-afd2ad436b76" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### **Your Collaborators**

You can easily add people to your Collaborators by hovering over their name in the row or card and clicking the + Collaborator button

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FQxvAwCOtCAhhfmrzPXTB%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=938794b0-973f-475c-8196-1338f4c66174" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Vouching

Your Circle may have vouching enabled, this means that you can nominate new people to join your Circle. To learn more about vouching see the link below 👇

# Allocate GIVE

Reward and thank your fellow Contributors by allocating GIVE

### Showing Generosity

Coordinape empowers you to take part in decentralized payroll. Each GIVE token represents a percentage of your team's payroll budget.

Every Circle will likely have unique contribution guidelines; how you allocate in a dev Circle will differ from how you allocate in a marketing circle.

{% endcontent-ref %}

### Allocate GIVE

The Allocation Page allows you to appreciate the teammates you have selected by sending them GIVE and Notes. You can browse member Epoch Statements, and Contributions to help determine how much Give to allocate across your team.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2F7tUd1MjfY3eoyeUpopCE%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=4ef14817-6997-4736-af39-2e313e037ae4" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Appreciate Your Team

Allocate GIVE and type notes to send to contributors.

* Coordinape will reflect these allocations and notes in real-time.
* The recipients are the only ones who can see the allocated amounts and notes.
* You can adjust these gifts throughout the epoch.

It is advised not to allocate GIVEs based on appearance or equality. Instead, GIVE should be allocated according to the amount of value created by members.

### You can also see GIVE amount to allocate in the top left and GIVE received on the left hand side bar.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FNWPy3NwAWFexmQ6f0zUT%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=e392fb5b-8acd-4535-858a-6f3f282efe62" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# Get Paid

You did the work time to reap the rewards!

### Every[ Circle](/get-started/circles) may perform the distributions differently.

Some Circles may distribute on the mainnet, use L2s on a non-ETH L1, and use Coordinape ahead of a token and will just be tracking the allocations until there is a token to distribute.

For more information, see [Paying Your Team](/get-started/compensation/paying-your-team)

# Organizations

Setting up your DAO in Coordinape

An Organization houses all of your Circles in Coordinape. You set your organization during the Circle creation phase.

# Circles

A Team of people working together

Currently, a Circle is equal to a team. Teams of people will allow you to compensate members within your organization.

### Circle Size

We recommend Circles of at least **three members.** The closer the team members are, the more accurate the compensation process is.

**For larger organizations, we recommend creating more smaller circles.**

#### Things to consider:

> **Work Opaqueness:** The more members in a Circle, the less accurate your team member's assessment of each other will be. Members tend to be the MOST familiar with the teammates' work they interact with the most often.&#x20;

> **Various Areas of Expertise:** Members do not always have experience with the effort required of all disciplines within the organization. For example, A developer may not know the rigor required of a marketer managing an active campaign. Due to this lack of experience, they may tend to under allocate to members of the marketing team.

![Team allocating GIVE to each other](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fplb0SYBJICjzUiJwgqZw%2FMap.gif?alt=media\&token=061f2914-c1dc-4521-a47c-40bf91576f12)

## Use Cases: Setting up your Structure

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Core + Community" %}
If you have community members that casually contribute to the DAO and a Core team you would like to incentivize, you could set it up like this.

**Acme DAO \[Organization]**

* Community Members \[Circle]
* Acme Core \[Circle]

The community circle can input contributions and then GIVE each other kudos and GIVE tokens. Then, after the Epoch, you can compensate the community for their work.

The core circle can write notes on current projects and give kudos to hard-working members after your DAO could provide bonuses based on GIVE tokens.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Working Teams" %}
We recommend discipline-based teams if you want to set up a few operational teams within the same organization. Teams should be no more than ten members for the most accurate allocations. Each circle should have a team lead with an admin role.

**Acme DAO \[Organization]**

* Acme Developers \[Circle]
* Acme Designers \[Circle]
* Acme Marketing \[Circle]
* Acme Community \[Circle]
* Acme Operations \[Circle]
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Projects" %}
If you want to use Coordinape to empower your community to allocate funds to projects, you can set your organization up like this.

**Acme DAO \[Organization]**

* Projects \[Circle]
  * Members
    * Admin Opt-Out of Recieving but GIVES to encourage the team&#x20;

This structure allows your DAO to use conviction voting to determine how to allocate project funding.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Whole DAO" %}
Some DAOs like to have DAO-wide circles to enable members to allocate GIVE to their DAO-mates, with who they may not share any other circles.

In our view, This is good for cultivating a DAO-wide culture of gratitude, but we would not advise allocating substantial compensation to these circles.

As Circles get larger, it can be difficult for DAO-mates to understand the type of work done across the entire DAO.

That doesn't make the notes any less valuable, though!

# Team Members

Getting your team onboarded to your Coordinape Circle

No Circle is complete without contributors. We've found the ideal number of contributors in a circle depends on the Contributors in the circle, and the type of contributions being made.&#x20;

As a rule of thumb though we recommend Circles between 5-20 users.

Click below for instructions on how to add team members to your Circle!&#x20;

[Add Team Members](/get-started/get-started/new-coordinape-admins/add-team-members)
{% endcontent-ref %}


# Epochs

A period of time when Contributions and Allocations can be tracked.

An Epoch is a period when your circle members can record contributions, leave notes, and make [GIVE allocations](/get-started/give). Circle admins create Epochs and vary in duration from 1 to 100 days.

To start an Epoch go to the Overview page and select your Circle, then click create an Epoch

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FOKYZx5mLmo1c4c77ago8%2FCreate%20Epoch.gif?alt=media\&token=47933f76-befd-4328-bc08-dc7fa1caee85)

### Start of an Epoch

At the beginning of an Epoch, members of the Circle receive GIVE tokens decided by the admin (Default: 100 tokens)

To receive GIVE, Members write their contributions during the Epoch on the My Epoch page. In addition, the Epoch Statement is public for the Circle to read. Members can use statements to detail their work this month or clarify what work they may be eligible for compensation.

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FwyKWwwGc0DYR4FMh8I4Z%2FContribute%20to%20allocate.gif?alt=media\&token=0f22cbd3-aa27-4918-80fa-ad23fca3c0f1)

### Dework Integration

It is also possible to sync tasks completed in[ ](https://dework.xyz/)[Dework](/info/integrations/dework) or in [Wonderverse](/info/integrations/wonderverse)to make allocating GIVE easier during the Epoch.

The integrations will only pull in tasks completed within an Epoch, so if you complete tasks outside of an active Epoch, you will still need to account for those tasks manually.

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/assets.dework.xyz/uploads/a9f1fdfb-d4a7-4156-ad2b-39589d6b1721/B15C5226-11D2-4012-9148-AF6EB62C0304.jpeg)

### Epoch Ending

Members can adjust their GIVE contributions at any point during the Epoch.

After the Epoch ends, the allocations are locked and converted to GET tokens.


# Create An Epoch

Get the team started in Coordinape

### Circle Admins

A [Circle Admin](/get-started/admin) needs to start an [Epoch](/get-started/epochs) to get your projects started. Epochs allow admins to frame a date range you would like your team to work within. Like traditional pay periods, members complete work within the Epoch time frame, submit contributions, then get paid after the Epoch ends.

Best practice is for the [Circle Admin](/get-started/admin) to add all team members to the Circle before starting the Epoch. For tips on how to add members see [Add Team Members](/get-started/get-started/new-coordinape-admins/add-team-members)

**Starting an Epoch:**

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Repeating Epoch" %}

#### Cycles

* Full Month

  * Epochs will start on day 1 of the month and end at the end of the month, you only need to choose the month it starts.

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Non-Repeating Epoch" %}

#### Non-Repeating Epochs

To Schedule a non-repeating Epoch you only need to enter the start date, end date, and the start time.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Frvhj2JFjpSq5MsNjHRHE%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=c2dcd565-1573-4a52-91d0-79fb07c910df" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Epochs cannot overlap so you will need to schedule an Epoch during a time when no recurring Epochs are scheduled
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Admin Settings

Once you save the Epoch, you will see the upcoming Epoch in the Admin panel. You can edit Epochs before and after the start time. However, you cannot edit epochs after they have ended.

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FQQdqtxjfC45XgDUwQCIx%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=f8eec9d9-30af-4a19-b024-f8f097619f33)

### **How long should your Epoch be?**

What length you choose will depend on the type of projects your team is working on and how often you prefer to pay your team.

#### Things to consider:

> **Recency Bias:** Members tend to allocate based on their recent experiences. If your Epochs are too long, members may forget about work completed at the beginning of the Epoch.

> **Process Fatigue:** Every Epoch requires your team to record contributions and allocate them to team members. If you have a large circle, the frequent allocation could lead to burnout.

# GIVE in Gift Circles

Showing generosity through GIVE

GIVE is a token that represents a portion of the budget set for the Circle. Allocation of capital throughout various Epochs will be determined by the amount of GIVE a member receives.\
*Currently, GIVE is a token that lives only on our server. Therefore, a GIVE token will not be sent to your wallet.*

At the start of the Epoch, each Circle member receives a certain number of GIVE tokens (Determined by the Circle Admin). Then, members allocate tokens to other members throughout the Epoch to reward them for the value they bring to the Circle.

![Circle Allocation](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FwyKWwwGc0DYR4FMh8I4Z%2FContribute%20to%20allocate.gif?alt=media\&token=0f22cbd3-aa27-4918-80fa-ad23fca3c0f1)

### Example

Over a particular Epoch, Sarina receives 100 GET tokens from other team members (out of 1000 tokens in total).

In this case, if the total Contributor budget is 50,000 USDC, Sarina will receive 5,000 USDC.

{% endcontent-ref %}

### Ways to GIVE

The purpose of the Gift Circle is to reward all the ways value is brought to your DAO. Therefore, throughout the Epoch, each member should allocate their GIVE tokens to other members using whatever logic makes sense to them intending to make sure valuable contributions are recognized and compensated as accurately as possible.

**Before starting an Epoch, you must guide your team on how best to allocate with the organization’s priorities in mind.**

### **GIVE Considerations**

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Impact" %}
**Impact:** You can allocate to team members who deliver work that positively impacts the betterment of the organization
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Cooperation" %}
**Cooperation:** How often does this member show up? Members can allocate to others who show up often and provide valuable feedback.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Effort" %}
**Effort:** You may consider rewarding members who have taken many steps to complete a task or worked through unique challenges.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Passion" %}
**Passion:** Is this member aligned with the mission of the organization? You can consider the level of passion and enthusiasm a member brings to the organization.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

Try not to allocate GIVEs based on who is “supposed” to get them or member "hype."\
Instead, **GIVE** where you see value happen. GIVE to members that help you.


# Allocating GIVE

Show generosity to your team

### See [Allocate GIVE](/get-started/get-started/new-coordinape-members/allocate-give)


# Reviewing Distributions

After allocation, Review your team's allocation

Before distributing the funds to their contributors, the Admin's responsibility is to ensure that the allocations look appropriate. Some things to be on the lookout for are:

* Were any critical contributors missed in the allocations?
* Did any contributors receive an allocation that seems out of line? (high or low)
* Did everyone allocate who should have allocated?

#### After you've spot-checked the allocations in the Epoch Summary you can distribute the funds (See [Broken mention](broken://pages/BETpOYKEGweoOpvoyCVM) for how to do that)&#x20;

#### ![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fqk28HHvz6VVK4d2SyZKm%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=4faf95cb-4d85-46a9-a244-fd32352092ed) ![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-3d9af86e6c9736acb62dc860f0a06734f62e69b7%2Fimage.png?alt=media)

#### or the admin panel if another epoch hasn't started yet, you can proceed with the distributions.


# Compensation

Distributing payment to members

Coordinape allows you to decentralize payroll. Here's how:

First, members allocate "[GIVE](/get-started/give)" tokens to each other during an [Epoch](/get-started/epochs). These tokens represent a portion of the budget set for the team.

Then, after allocation, the Circle Admin exports a CSV and uses their preferred payment method to pay Circle members. If you have a CoVault in your organization, the Circle Admin submits payment for the team to claim.&#x20;

{% content-ref url="/pages/gWN1v8kpqkgV2GC09KlO" %}
[Paying Your Team](/get-started/compensation/paying-your-team)
{% endcontent-ref %}

![CSV Output](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6731b49b342cad10c97ca65bfb975639430d0ce7%2FScreen%20Shot%202022-05-17%20at%2012.55.42%20PM.png?alt=media)

The compensation your Circle will distribute can vary from $0 to millions. The only limit is your treasury!


# Paying Your Team

After the Epoch completes

#### When you are ready to pay your team, these are the options:

* CSV Export&#x20;
* Disperse
* Gnosis Safe
* Parcel&#x20;

![Admin Epoch History](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FunVnB11SxyI7eO4iNDqD%2FExport%20CSV.gif?alt=media\&token=6a98121b-cf5e-48b2-a1ed-e8193dba9cd7)

### CSV

With CSV export from your Epoch, you can use this to integrate with your preferred payment method.

Since this is a CSV, you can use this file to pay your team however you'd like and on any chain you'd like; know that the addresses your contributors used to sign in are the ETH mainnet addresses.

### Payment Disbursement

If you're paying your team on Ethereum, you can use any options below, pay them in individual transactions or a custom script.

# Admin

As a Circle Admin, you will be able to edit Circle Settings, Edit Epoch settings, edit your users, and create new circles.

## **Permissions**

**As an admin, you can control the following:**

* Circle Creation
* Circle Settings
* Epoch Settings
* Manage Members
* Vouching Requirements
* Export Allocation Data

## Best Practices

The best practices for running Coordinape will vary from team to team. But, in general, we find that teams that **communicate** their goals for Coordinape to their contributors will have a better experience than teams that start Circles without communicating with their users.

So, when communicating to your teams, here are some things to make sure to mention:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="GIVE Eligibility  " %}

* Who should be eligible to send and receive GIVE?
* Should members compensated via grants or salaries be rewarded?
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Work Dates " %}

* Which dates should your contributors be thinking about when allocating?
* Should users consider all of the prior months when allocating?
* Should they only consider work that members completed?
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Contribution Impact" %}

* What type of activity would you like your contributors to be rewarding?
* Should a particular type of work be more valuable? (Devs or Business Development?)
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Compensation Method" %}

* How are allocations paid out?
* Will they be paid in stable coins or project tokens, or is your DAO just tracking contributions until they have a token to distribute?
  {% endtab %}
  {% endtabs %}

### **Team Size**

Team sizes can range from 2-200+, but it's easier to allocate to smaller teams (<20), so the users can interact with most team members.

***

**Compensation Amounts**

The amount of compensation for each epoch can vary. It can be zero; it can be infinity.

Prior to our on-chain launch, there is no escrow feature, so the admin will distribute the compensation after the Epoch ends.

Once on-chain, funds for epochs will be escrowed in the Ape Vaults and automatically made available to claim or distribute at the end of the Epoch after the admin approves the distributions.

***

**Use Cases We've Seen**

* Giving to Contributors
* Giving to Projects
* Giving to other circles

# Update Epoch Settings

What you need to know when setting epochs for your circles

### Admin Settings

Once you save the [Epoch](/get-started/epochs), you will see the upcoming Epoch in the [Admin](/get-started/admin) panel. You can edit Epochs before and after the start time. However, You cannot edit Epochs after they have ended.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FWMEZxTuITwB63HTqH7Iu%2FSchedule%20Epoch.gif?alt=media&amp;token=58f94a8e-d3b4-4ed8-a222-ed2b9cdc3e7b" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Editing an Epoch:**

1. Find A Current or Upcoming Epoch on the Admin Page
2. Set Start Date. Change the date you want the Epoch to start.
3. Choose Epoch Length. Shorten or Lengthen the work period?
4. Epoch Start Time. Move up or push back the time? *Time is in UTC*
5. Should this Epoch repeat? Do you want the Epoch to restart automatically?
6. Save. Are you ready?!

# Enable Vouching

Allow members to vouch for each other

## Setting Up Vouching for your Circle

Vouching is the process of letting members of the Circle Nominate, and vouch for new contributors.

This feature must be enabled from the admin panel by clicking the settings button:

Scroll to the Vouching section and then the admin will have the options for the vouching settings, listed below:

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FRmWTfIYefYvg1NGuwNDU%2FEnable%20Vouching.gif?alt=media\&token=f89e8352-9e36-44e3-a451-6d58d7a2c176)

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Enable Vouching" %}
Set to “**Yes**” if the admin wants to enable this feature.&#x20;

* The vouching process gives power to the community to add new members, as admins will no longer be the only users who can add members.

Set to "No" if you want admins to be the only ones with the ability to add new members
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Minimum Vouches" %}
In this box, the admin can choose how many vouches are needed for a new member to be added. The lower the number, the easier to enter the circle.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Length" %}
Number of days a nomination is valid.&#x20;

If there are not enough vouches, the nominee is not added, and the process will need to restart from the beginning.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Vouching Text" %}
Text box where the admin can set some guidelines for the contributors that want to vouch for someone else.&#x20;

* Example: “When vouching for someone, please send samples (or links) of the work done.”

# 🧑🤝🧑 Members

Your CO Team members

Circle Members are the lovely folks that make up your team. Members can write about their contributions, look at others' work and allocate GIVE to each other.

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fplb0SYBJICjzUiJwgqZw%2FMap.gif?alt=media\&token=061f2914-c1dc-4521-a47c-40bf91576f12)

### Membership Considerations

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Commitment" %}
**Work Commitment:** Coordinape is a great way to compensate members who have committed to completing any number of bounties or deliverables.\
\
The Circle allows them to record their work and have the team evaluate its impact through [GIVE.](/get-started/give)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Trust" %}
**Member Trust Level:** Coordinape allows for collective compensation. Since members will receive some form of payment for their work, they have an incentive to bargain or influence their chances of higher pay.\
\
Consider how well you trust members with the ability to allocate to each other fairly.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Compensation Methods" %}
**Compensation Considerations:** Your organization may compensate members through various forms such as salary, grants, bounties, etc.\
\
Coordinape can support various types of members. For example, salary members can receive bonuses through Coordinape. In addition, community members can receive bounty payments. Consider how you would like to reward and compensate your team.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### **What do I need from members?**

A wallet address and a name is all you need to add anyone to a Coordinape Circle.

{% endcontent-ref %}


# Member Profile

Show off your skills

## Profile Name

Every address has a unique profile name on Coordinape. When you first connect a wallet, the app will ask you to choose a profile name.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FXXphaqbS5N5EjAVZFqD0%2FScreenshot%202023-01-13%20at%202.24.09%20PM.png?alt=media&amp;token=f29bdd02-5fc8-4b69-85e2-4f6c9ec1ed14" alt=""><figcaption><p>Setting a profile name on Coordinape</p></figcaption></figure>

This profile name must be unique across all of Coordinape. You will get an error if the profile name you enter is already taken.

#### Editing Profile Name

You can edit your profile name in your profile. Visit your [profile page](https://app.coordinape.com/profile/me), click "Edit Profile", then under "Profile Name" enter your new name.

Note: profile names are self-set by users, so you should not inherently trust the names. Only add people you trust to your circles.

## Circle Profile

Your profile is consistent between Circles; if someone shares a Circle with you, they can:

* View your profile
* Circles you're in
* Your recent epoch statements
* Read your bio
* Your skills tags & links.

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FmNu0h3RYMYbuO64cDLI0%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=dfd8a656-c06a-4e58-8f2b-5965afb844ee" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

# Vouching New Members

How members can add contributors to a circle

A vouch is a vote by a Circle contributor to invite new members. Vouching can be as little as one vouch needed (any contributor can add other contributors), or an admin can require every member of the Circle must vote to add a new member.

If the minimum threshold of vouches reaches the required number, the contributor instantly gains access to the Circle.

## Nominating a Contributor

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-e1ef14154d444b5bb27850e21547b2a9a4e0e5a5%2Fvouching-process.jpg?alt=media)

Usually, the vouching process will start on the social layer, via conversation or collaboration, realizing that someone in the community should add to a Circle.

When this happens, any Circle member who is eligible to vouch can nominate a new contributor. They will need to add the member’s ETH address, name (such as a Discord / Telegram username), and a statement about why they are nominating this individual.

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2FGm2Ul75V0ZqOU0N9UUIe%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=312712f6-f967-4ad5-8f43-021520c37329)

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9d30355e55fd23ccdfa2e0df5197f053c28bf2e4%2Fvouching-nominate2.jpg?alt=media)

## Vouching

Once nominated, other Circle members will see that the potential collaborator is eligible for membership, and they can take the step of vouching for the member if they so choose.

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-e587e13f0294938dc942683da40be209a59d1fb0%2Fvouching-vouch2.jpg?alt=media)

If the required number of members vouch for a new contributor, Coordinape adds the member to the circle. Then, they can log in with their favorite wallet app, set up profiles, and begin to receive or send GIVE.

Future features will build on this process, including the addition of more surgical toggles that can determine the status of new members.

### Admin Intervention

Admins can still remove members if a member proves unready to participate in the Coordinape circle.

Coordinape is excited to aid DAOs in bootstrapping their communities and letting contributors participate in the active growth of their working teams.

Please feel free to give it a try or ask for more information in our Discord.

# Documentation

Coordinape White paper, Tooling and Integration Information

## Coordinape: How It Works

Coordinape's core is our Circles - groups of DAO participants that wish to distribute funds through a decentralized gifting process. Each Circle can define the rules of participation -- it can grow its network permissionless, set parameters around some aspects of its game mechanics, and toggle network visibility through centralized admin or internal governance.

{% embed url="<https://youtu.be/J8oGun8EKDE>" %}
How to Coordinape by Gabriel H
{% endembed %}

Circles run in Epochs: periods in which constituent contributors can send each other GIVE tokens, representing that Circle's total budget allocation. We envision Epochs as monthly events where contributors can consider each other's collaboration, mutual enablement, and furthering of the DAO's mission over that period. Each member is allocated a fixed amount of GIVE (100 by default) and can freely send any number of these tokens to other Circle members during the Epoch. Members can also opt-out if they receive funding elsewhere, allowing them to send GIVE but not receive it.

GIVE has no value if it's not received by another Circle member -- the gifting process defines the per-member payout from the Circle's budget.

When the Epoch ends, each member has received the GIVE can be exchanged for a pro-rate amount of the monthly treasury budget.

# Vision

Coordinape's Mission

## Building DAO Operations

DAOs have revolutionized our facility for coordinating decision-making via coin-voting. Still, the shortfalls of these broad consensus-finding mechanisms have become very apparent as we’ve put them to the test across hundreds of communities over the past year.

DAOs typically manage growing protocol’s many operational decisions such as hiring and compensation. Unfortunately, the average coin-holder often lacks the time or expertise to add helpful input to a system and is often either abstaining or rubber stamping initiatives based on their trust in the core team.

{% embed url="<https://youtu.be/JM0zF3AzFno>" %}
Our founders on Coordinape
{% endembed %}

DAOs solve one-half of the problems decentralized networks require, defining governance. Coordinape is a DO (decentralized operations) platform that aims to solve the other half: a structure to make operational decisions within a team of contributors. If a DAO is the decentralized version of a board of directors plus shareholders, a DO is the decentralized version of the executive team plus contributors themselves.

## Roll-out

We are testing Coordinape in phases to understand the social dynamics. For the first phase of its development, Our Team Coordinape is building to tackle a key pain point for Yearn: community grants. We have tested our proof of concept compensation mechanic, the “gifting circle,” over several trial periods at Yearn, including dedicated circles for specific groups and processes. Now, we are opening the alpha version to select partners for their use.

![](https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1441802763029-b621005a04a5?crop=entropy\&cs=srgb\&fm=jpg\&ixid=MnwxOTcwMjR8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHw2fHxjaXJjbGV8ZW58MHx8fHwxNjUyNzUzOTM5\&ixlib=rb-1.2.1\&q=85)

## Development

We implemented Coordinape off-chain to allow rapid changes and iteration as we research the best applications of core ideas. Simultaneously, we are working on an on-chain version to be implemented on a layer 2 EVM compatible side-chain as we launch our on-chain ETH L1 offering.


# Gift Circle

Coordinape’s core feature (central to the Alpha version) is the Gift Circle.

The Gift Circle allows a group of DAO contributors to decentralize the payment process, identifying each other's value to the organization to create a compensation map.

Compensation is done through a process of Gifting.

## The Gift Circle

An organization can stand up to any number of Gift Circles, adding members through a decentralized process. Then, during a set period (the Epoch), the group can perform the Gifting process as follows:

* At the start of the Epoch, each member of the Circle receives several non-divisible GIVE tokens (Determined by the Circle Admin)
* Members allocate their GIVE tokens to other members throughout the Epoch to reward them for the value they bring to the Circle.
* Members can adjust their allocations up until the end of the Epoch.
* They can add notes to their allocations if they wish
* At the end of the Epoch, all allocated GIVE tokens become locked (now called GET tokens), and all unallocated GIVE tokens are burned.
* Budget distribution is then formulated according to the percentage of total GET tokens that each member of the circles has received.

## Example

* Joe receives 75 GETs over the Epoch from his colleagues,
* Total GETs allocated during the Epoch are 1500,
* The total Contributor Budget is 50,000 USDC
* Circle Admin sends Joe 2,500 USDC (0.05 of the Budget).


# Who To Gift

The purpose of the gift circle is to reward all the ways value is brought to your DAO

Throughout the epoch, each member should allocate their GIVE tokens to other members using whatever logic makes sense to them intending to make sure valuable contributions are recognized and compensated as accurately as possible.

The goal is not to share the money equally, give from obligation, or pay people for spending time within the organization (unless you think that is valuable). The goal is to reward valuable contributions. If someone doesn’t get any GIVE tokens, that’s OK. Maybe they were busy that month? Or maybe they aren’t bringing value. There is nothing wrong with that.

Use your judgment in allocating GIVEs. In general, give them when you have first-hand experience of people creating value. For example, if you are working with someone on a yearn project and you think they did a good job, allocate some GIVEs.

Try not to allocate GIVEs based on who is “supposed” to get them or based on hype. Instead, give them where you see value happen. Give them to people that help you.

Don’t worry about getting the numbers right. Go with your heart.


# Vouching System

The Vouching System

The DAO landscape prides itself on self-management and contribution, and we often hear the question: how should new contributors be inducted into a Gift Circle? While the borders of DAO membership might be as simple as landing in a Discord server or collecting NFTs or tokens, the additional trust layer of joining a circle to GIVE or receive may have different considerations. For example, vouching may happen by consensus, self-determination, admin decisions, or a blend of the three. Coordinape leaves this up to you.

Up to now, the Coordinape application has only allowed circle access via admin controls. However, this will likely always be a practical option, and some circles may choose to maintain this practice alone in an ongoing fashion (which, of course, we will support).

However, just as DAOs often form by autonomy and osmosis, we wanted to include more decentralized options by which a circle can grow. Our Vouching system allows members to onboard new collaborators through a simple and flexible consensus mechanism. With Vouching, circles may determine their porosity via threshold settings, and contributors in a circle can actively engage in managing its growth.

# CoVaults Smart Contracts

Description of the smart contracts that power the Coordinape Vaults.

### Key Roles and Contracts

* The **vault factory** ([ApeVaultFactory](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-protocol/blob/main/contracts/ApeProtocol/wrapper/beacon/ApeVaultFactory.sol)) creates new **vaults** ([ApeVault)](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-protocol/blob/main/contracts/ApeProtocol/wrapper/beacon/ApeVault.sol) containing funds for a different organization using Coordinape.
* According to a Merkle tree, the **distributor** ([ApeDistributor](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-protocol/blob/main/contracts/ApeProtocol/ApeDistributor.sol)) distributes tokens to contributors. When a distribution occurs, tokens are transferred from a vault to the distributor. Only the vault's owner can submit a distribution.
* When tokens are deposited into or withdrawn from vaults, the **router** ([ApeRouter](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-protocol/blob/main/contracts/ApeProtocol/ApeRouter.sol)) manages the process to make tracking TVL easier.
* The **registry** ([ApeRegistry](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-protocol/blob/main/contracts/ApeProtocol/ApeRegistry.sol)) contains system-wide settings.

![](https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fcj3uHYtPqUvk9dQWQPB4%2Fcoordinape%20system%20diagram.png?alt=media\&token=6fc88b5b-6d98-48d5-803d-5d13c62449ba)

The links above go to our Github repo for contracts, [coordinape/coordinape-protocol](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-protocol), which also contains a test suite written with [a brownie](https://github.com/eth-brownie/brownie). Additional tests that exercise the contracts on a Ganache test chain can be found in [our frontend repo](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape).

### Two Types of Vaults

Vaults can be initialized as Yearn Vaults (with a non-zero `_token` constructor argument) or Basic Vaults (with a non-zero `_simpleToken` constructor argument). A Yearn Vault for a token converts deposits into the corresponding yield-bearing Yearn wrapper token, e.g. `yvDAI` for `DAI`, and stores that in the vault. Yearn Vaults, therefore, support only tokens for which Yearn wrapper tokens are available. Basic Vaults can store any ERC-20 token.

### Security and Upgradability

Any address can deposit funds into a vault, but only the vault's owner can withdraw any funds.

The **registry** determines which factory, distributor, and router are in use. These can be changed by the registry owner, which is currently the Coordinape [multisig](https://etherscan.io/address/0x15b513f658f7390d8720dce321f50974b28672ef). These changes are time-locked, so vault users have time to withdraw their tokens if the registry is somehow compromised.

The registry also references a fee registry component, as seen in the diagram above, which can be used to charge fees on distributions from vaults. There are no plans to charge any fees.

The vaults use the [Beacon Proxy](https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/3.x/api/proxy#BeaconProxy) pattern for upgradability so that all existing vaults can be upgraded with a single transaction to add functionality or fix a bug. This is also executable only by the beacon owner (the Coordinape multisig) and time-locked.

A vault owner can "opt-out" of upgrades by calling `setBeaconDeploymentPrefs`. Please ask in [our Discord](https://discord.coordinape.com/) if you would like more details about this.

See below for links to our security audits.

### Contract Addresses

The addresses currently in use on [app.coordinape.com](https://app.coordinape.com) are stored in [deploymentInfo.json](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape/blob/main/hardhat/deploymentInfo.json). The top-level sections in that JSON file are keyed by chain ID, i.e. `1` is mainnet and `5` is Görli.

To see the vault implementation currently in use, you can follow this chain of properties:

* `ApeVaultFactory` in `deploymentInfo.json`: [0xb06E1FF...](https://etherscan.io/address/0xb06e1ff89f95699e60e26980a049bd8dff4e6f06#readContract)
* the factory's `beacon` property: [0x7BD45da...](https://etherscan.io/address/0x7BD45dabb998D8E29b5DE353112E5f4EbF742142#readContract)
* the beacon's `implementation` property: [0xd92e89e...](https://etherscan.io/address/0xd92e89e294694b0B38937d7e9A316164500e2858#code)

### Future Functionality

There is some functionality present in the contracts that are not supported by our front-end app:

* The distributor can send tokens directly to end-user addresses, rather than having their claim from a Merkle root (`ApeDistributor.tapEpochAndDistribute`).
* A vault owner can designate one address per circle as a "distribution manager" (`ApeVault.updateCircleAdmin`), and set a time-limited allowance (`ApeVault.updateAllowance`) for that address to distribute tokens from their vault.
* A vault can be initialized with a Yearn-backed token address and a basic/simple token address and receive and distribute both of those tokens independently. (This use case is unlikely to be supported on the front-end for the sake of UX simplicity.)

### Audits

Coordinape's vault contracts underwent two thorough security audits. Both audits deemed the use of our contracts to be "Low Risk".\
\
**Primary Audit:** [**https://github.com/blocksecteam/audit-reports/blob/main/solidity/blocksec\_coordinape\_v1.1\_signed.pdf**](https://github.com/blocksecteam/audit-reports/blob/main/solidity/blocksec_coordinape_v1.1_signed.pdf)

After the primary audit with BlockSec, additional features were added to the contracts. A secondary audit was performed by SlowMist.

**Secondary Audit:** [**https://github.com/slowmist/Knowledge-Base/blob/master/open-report-V2/smart-contract/SlowMist%20Audit%20Report%20-%20Coordinape%20protocol\_en-us.pdf**](https://github.com/slowmist/Knowledge-Base/blob/master/open-report-V2/smart-contract/SlowMist%20Audit%20Report%20-%20Coordinape%20protocol_en-us.pdf)


# Email Login and Web3 Best Practices

Login with Email

New to Web3? Don't have an Ethereum wallet? No problem! You can log into Coordinape with any email address, and our partners at MagicLink will create a wallet for you behind the scenes. Here's what you need to know about that...

## How it works

* When you log in via email, MagicLink creates a free Ethereum wallet for you and associates it with your email address.
* When authenticated via your email, you can control the wallet through MagicLink's API.
* You can use your MagicLink wallet to perform actions in Coordinape, such as sending GIVE, allowing you to use most functions in the app and even recieve tokens from your DAO.
* You can also use the MagicLink wallet and interface for other dApps in web3.
* In the future, you can export your wallet's private key (like a password) to use with a more standard, browser based-application like Metamask.
* Taking this step means you are now the sole owner of your wallet's private key, and it will be a more flexible and secure way to manage your tokens.&#x20;

## What is a wallet?

A wallet is a piece of software that holds the private keys (or seed phrase) for your address and makes it simple for you to interact with a blockchain.&#x20;

* Private Keys are the 12 to 24 words that you use to prove your ownership of an Ethereum address.

There are a ton of great wallets out there and most of them will let you use the same passkey to access the funds held in your address.

There are 4 ways to log into Coordinape:

* [Metamask ](https://metamask.io)(A browser extension you can download) or a wallet that can emulate MM like [0xFrame](https://frame.sh)
* [Coinbase Wallet](https://www.coinbase.com/wallet) (A browser extension you can download)
* [Wallet Connect](https://walletconnect.com) (A QR code that you can scan with a wallet on your phone)
  * This supports a ton of cool wallets like [Argent ](https://www.argent.xyz)and [Rainbow](https://rainbow.me)
* Email Login (MagicLink creates a wallet for you and holds your private keys, allowing you to log in and manage it with your email address)&#x20;

## Taking full ownership of your wallet

* MagicLink provides a wallet, and an option to export your private key so you can decide to manage it on your own.
* This feature requires some provisioning from Coordinape, which we will be adding in coming months.

## Best practices for Wallets

{% hint style="warning" %}
Never under any circumstances share your private key with someone. If they have this key they can take everything in your wallet.

\
There are no refunds in web3
{% endhint %}

The current web3/crypto landscape looks different than the web that you may be used to. There are a number of reasons for this.&#x20;

One of those reasons is users own their assets, not a bank, or Google, or Amazon, or Microsoft. This means that users need to take an abundance of caution when interacting with apps.&#x20;

Anything that you'll want to do in web3 will involve you connecting to an app and giving it permission to connect to your wallet before doing a transaction.&#x20;

This will require you to "sign" things with your wallet.&#x20;

\`To do those transactions you'll typically need to do 3 signatures: (Pop ups that will prompt you to approve something)&#x20;

1. Sign to allow the app to connect to your wallet ⛽🚫
2. Sign to approve the app to spend your assets ⛽
3. Sign to approve that app to complete the transaction. ⛽

`⛽ = Transaction requires gas`

`⛽🚫 = Signature only`

{% hint style="info" %}
Some wallets will give you an option to set the "gas" fee and the "tip" for each transaction. You should only change these if you have an idea of what your doing, but in general a lower gas fee means you will wait longer to have the transaction confirmed, and a higher one means it will go through faster.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

If you want to see a transactions progress before it's finalized every transaction creates a "Hash" that can be looked up on [Etherscan](https://etherscan.io). (Or it's equivalent if your on another chain) Etherscan can tell you all about your transaction, but you'll need to have a pretty good understanding of the code to make much sense of it

It's important not to blindly sign any popup that comes up on your web3 journey. Only sign transactions from sites that you trust. [0xFrame ](https://frame.sh)does an excellent job of letting you read what you're signing.&#x20;

You are the master of your own fate in web3. It can be scary, but it's worth it. If you have any questions we're always happy to answer them in our discord... Just don't give us your private keys.

## What's special about web3?

Web3 (or Crypto) is a version of the internet with a focus on decentralization and user ownership.&#x20;

To appreciate this ownership focus you should [give this a look](https://ethereum.org/en/web3/), but if you want a super short TLDR of what web1 and web2 are you can check this out below.

* Web1 - Read Only
  * The early internet, mostly static sites run by businesses.
* Web2 - Read/Write
  * Social media and advertisement driven user flows, the users attention is usually what companies are selling.
* Web3 - Read/Write/Own
  * Decentralized, permissionless, native payments, and trustless. Users can now own their data, payments methods, and not be forced to choose between tech giants for the services they rely on.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
*Most of the Web3 tools and apps exist on a spectrum of the highlights above, some apps are fully on chain with IPFS hosted front ends, and others only interact with the blockchain for payments. As the infrastructure for truly decentralized apps is built out the ideal outcome is more decentralization to return to the initial promise of the early internet where people could freely exchange ideas, values, and data.*

{% endhint %}

To put a cherry on top of this the teams building in web3/crypto today are doing so because they've caught a glimpse of the future.&#x20;

* open and transparent systems.
* global communities.
* sovereign and trustless infrastructures.

If those things sound valuable, you're in the right place, if they don't, give it time.

# Guild

For token gating your Circles

If you want your circle to be gated (either by tokens, NFT, Discord, Telegram or Twitter verification or whitelists) you can use our integration with Guild.xyz to make that happen.&#x20;

To do that click on the admin tab and then scroll to the integrations section and find Guild.xyz\
\
To add the integration check out the [Guild Docs here](https://docs.guild.xyz/guild) to set your Guild up, and then enter your Guild details here.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://3139449263-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgYEoMnmffKn5dtH9m8PM%2Fuploads%2Fu5TrFFHWh3QSMGkywiZ1%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=a6f3c900-249d-4934-b77e-7726407054ea" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

This will enable verified members to join your circle with no extra work on your part.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
This does not prevent manually adding members or vouching unless you turn those settings off.

If this integration is disabled the users will still be a part of this Circle.&#x20;

(In a future build we will add the ability to check to ensure users still meet membership criteria)

# CO Token Utility

The Coordinape app now emits the ability to attest with [GIVE](/social-oracle-tm-give) at higher rates for wallet addresses that hold the [CO token](https://etherscan.io/address/0xf828BA501B108FbC6c88eBDfF81C401BB6B94848).  Coordinape has created a utility for the CO token to encourage and empower individuals to contribute to and grow the social reputation footprint of the [Social Oracle](/social-oracle-tm-give). \
\
Now, if your logged in wallet also holds the CO token, your GIVE bank cap will be increased and so will your emission of GIVE itself.  The chart below shows the GIVE emission rates for each CO holding level:

| Amount of CO | GIVE emissions Rate | GIVE Cap |
| ------------ | ------------------- | -------- |
| < 1          | 1 per day           | 1        |
| 1 - 100      | 3 per day           | 3        |
| 101 - 1,000  | 10 per day          | 10       |
| 1,001-99,999 | 20 per day          | 20       |
| 100,000 +    | 100 per day         | 200      |

The CO token is governed by the CoDAO. You can learn more about the CoDAO and get involved by checking out the [CoDAO Charmverse site](https://app.charmverse.io/codao/1-codao-mission-20572971131480156).&#x20;

# What is CoLinks

CoLinks (built by the Coordinape Foundation) is a new kind of professional social network: a hub where you can form a curated group, and folks can Link up to you to be in your orbit. CoLinks is centered on the concept of provable, mutually incentivized social networks, and decentralized reputation. We think this is the future of professional networking.

In CoLinks, you Link with people by buying Links, or when they buy yours. This connects you in an intimate social graph, and allows you to participate by sharing ideas together, building reputation and connecting with others. Coordinape’s take is that trust relationships, formed in this way, are the bedrock of any significant collaboration.

CoLinks is built on a few synchronistic pillars that are covered in detail in these docs:

[Home, Posts and Replies](/colinks/home-posts-and-replies)\
[Explore ](/colinks/explore-and-search)[and Search](/colinks/explore-and-search)\
[Buying and Selling Links](/colinks/buying-and-selling-links)\
[CoLinks Smart Contract](/colinks/colinks-smart-contract)\
[Rep & CoSouls](/colinks/rep-and-cosouls)\
[FAQ](/colinks/faq)\
\
[CoLinks Terms of Service](https://coordinape.com/terms)

## **Why CoLinks**

We built CoLinks as an extension of the Coordinape Gift Circle. In the new internet, people already share value and support each other in spaces that are collectively incentivized. These spaces can be large, like a DAO, or they can be as small as a hi-five between two people. Maintaining a relationship with someone on the internet is fun and open ended, but can also be thought of as a latent exchange of trust and reputation. As participants in co-creation, we support each other, inform each other, propose ideas and even start collaborations.

Legacy social media can enable this process (sort of) but it skims off the top by leveraging your information to enable advertisement, and thus bends the natural way you’d like to engage toward the whims of powerful actors.&#x20;

In CoLinks, the protocol manages rewards intrinsically and without the need of monolithic, paid sponsors.  We think this is a better model to incentivize and maintain a web of connections, without the pressure of platform capture. And, that lets us build it to really suit what you want to do, and who you want to see.\
\
So, lets take a look around...


# Home, Posts and Replies

The Home page is where you will probably spend most of your time, communicating with people you are Linked to. Here you will find a shared activity feed, containing Posts and Replies by your CoLinks tribe.

**Posts & Prompts**

* With Posts, you can post your thoughts. We offer a series of Prompts to get the creative juices flowing. You can choose to address them, refresh them, or you can ignore them and post whatever you want.&#x20;
* When you make a Post, you can include markdown to format text, link to images or articles, etc.

**Post Visibility**

* When you buy a Link, your posts will be pushed to that user’s home page, so they can read what you are up to.  And, you can read their posts as well, which will appear on your feed and in their profile.
* When someone buys *your* Link, its the same deal. They will see your posts, and you will see theirs.
* You can always mute someone if you wish, by visiting their profile to mute them. They will know they have been muted, and might choose to sell your Link if they were hoping for more -- it is what it is.

**Replies and Reactions**

* Each post can maintain a single thread of replies, written by anyone that is connected to you by a Link.
* Replies are ordered by date posted, and you will see Replies even if you are not Linked to the replier.
* Posts can also get emoji reactions. We’ve selected all of the best emojis for CoLinks.


# Explore and Search

CoLinks takes exploration seriously. Discovery is the root of finding people you want to connect with, and we offer many ways to discover new Links that may be meaningful for your journey. Our exploration features are aided by LLM AI Vector Indexing, which allows connections to be sought with more meaningful results. Here’s what we offer:

### Sortable Leaderboards

* Browse leaders in links held, links holding and Rep Score.  More leaderboards are coming soon.

### Interest Tags

* You can find people based on interests they have tagged themselves with.  Tag your interests in your Account Settings area. You get to tag 8 interests at this time.

### Similarity Scoring

* Our AI vector indexing allows us to use an LLM to identify accounts that have overlap with yours, and you will find these lists in various pages in CoLinks.

### Command-K / Omni-search

* With a single search, find any key word, Link account, interest tag and even relevant posts within your Linked feed.  Press Command-K to pop it up any time.


# Buying and Selling Links

Buying and Selling links is done by interacting with the CoLinks smart contract, deployed on OP Mainnet. Buys and Sells are priced on a bonding curve. As more Links are bought, the price will become higher. As they are sold, the price will become lower.&#x20;

Funds from purchased Links are escrowed in the CoLinks smart contract when bought (according to the Buy price), and these funds are redeemed from the contract on selling (according to the Sell price). Each buy and sell also includes fees to CoLinks and the Link issuer. See [CoLinks Smart Contract ](/colinks/colinks-smart-contract)for more details.

### **To Buy a Link:**

* Make sure you have some OP Ethereum in your wallet, enough for payment and gas.
* Browse to the Link you want to own, and buy it via the user’s Profile Page or in the Explore page directly.
* Confirm the transaction in your browser or phone based wallet, or with MagicLink custodial wallet if you have used that method to authenticate.

### **To Sell a Link**

* Be sure you have some OP Ethereum in your wallet, for gas.
* Browse to the link you want to sell, and sell it via the user’s Profile Page.
* Confirm the transaction in your wallet, or with MagicLink custodial wallet if you have used that method to authenticate.
* Please note, you will not see the OP Eth you will receive in the wallet transaction, which only posts the cost of the TX. You can confirm this on Etherscan after the TX has completed.


# CoLinks Smart Contract

The CoLinks social-fi smart contract is a fork of Friend.Tech’s landmark design. However, we do a few things differently. Please refer to our Terms of Service to understand viable use of the CoLinks smart contract.

### **CoLinks is deployed on Optimism Mainnet**

* Contract Address is[ here](https://optimistic.etherscan.io/address/0x7154cA7E4C756E06151aefA2D765404950FA0EE1).

### **Softer bonding curve**

* We have optimized our bonding curve for people to accumulate larger collections of Links, by making the curve less steep than Friend.Tech.&#x20;
* This allows more Link connections to be made before prices become prohibitive.

### Familiar Fees

* Like Friend Tech, the Link subject and Coordinape Foundation will each take 5% of the buy or sell price as an added fee with each transaction.

### Additional Base Fee Split

* To compensate for the softer curve, Coordinape and the Link offerer will split a small flat fee on each buy and sell. This fee is currently set to .000042 ETH
* This fee is applied in full on all Buys, but ramps up on Sells to allow for sellers to recapture value on sells below the Base Fee itself.

### Contract Management

* Just like the Friend Tech contract, OP ETH that is placed in escrow in the contract is not accessible to anyone other than Link holders. Even the contract owner multisig cannot remove it.
* Contract owner (multisig) can change fee values and protocol fee destination.
* There are reasonable maximums set on the fees in the contract, to prevent fees that are too high.


# Rep and CoSouls

In CoLinks, we know that reputation is important.  Verifiable humanity and reputation metrics can help you to take the plunge on getting to know someone new through Links.  That's why we've developed Rep, a rich score that takes markers of personhood and value into account to help you get to know each other.\
\
We think that reputation is a mix of where you have been, such as elements of your web2 social profile and on-chain history, and what you are doing now, like interactions in CoLinks and other Coordinape ecosystem tools. We make no claims that Rep is perfect, or anywhere close to final (we’re going to continue adding elements and tweaking the underling algorithm), but we think its already nice short-hand way to know who you’d encountering in CoLinks, and a great starting point to learn more.

### **Rep Scoring**

**Public Give Score (pGIVE)**

* The first element that goes into the Rep score is public GIVE or pGIVE, which is derived from three places:
  * Algorithmically normalized historical GIVE received in Gift Circles.
  * GIVE received in CoLinks.
  * GIVE received in Farcaster.

**CoLinks Score**

* Rep considers your engagements in CoLinks. This includes how many people hold your Link, Links you hold, posts and replies in CoLinks and invitations, where we include the rep of your invited frens as well.&#x20;

**Web2 Score**

* When you connect Twitter and GitHub, as well as verify your email, Rep is able to score elements of your web2 socials.
* We consider your legacy accounts to be helpful in confirming your humanity, painting a picture of who you are, and presenting some basic data on how connected you are outside of CoLinks.

**Web 3 Score**

* Your wallet can say a lot about you. Our MVP Rep score looks for POAPS, which may represent events you’ve been to or other badges and accomplishments. Soon, we will be able to look at much more.

**Coordinape Ecosystem Score**

* The Coordianpe Gift Circle has seen many millions of GIVE sent, as individual collaborators signal thanks for each other’s effort in some of the most impressive DAOs out there. We score this using a normalized Public GIVE score, which can become an element of your Rep if you are a Gift Circle user.

### **CoSoul, your on-chain Rep SBT**

Rep is useful in CoLinks, to get a sense of someone's value to their frens, their provable humanity and their activity in the CoLinks network.  And, we think this is going to be increasingly useful to the outside world. We will publish your Rep and pGIVE to your CoSoul monthly, using automated synching, to get that Rep on-chains and allow you to really put it to work out there in the wider world of web3.


# GIVE

## What is GIVE?

* A simple and powerful way to recognize people and impact, inside and outside of the Coordinape platform.
* All ways and forms of giving GIVE are stored onchain as markers in time that someone was recognized for something great. GIVE is stored as pGIVE on the [Coordinape member’s CoSoul.](http://coordinape.com/cosoul)
* You can give GIVE to anyone on Farcaster or [CoLinks](https://colinks.coordinape.com) to recognize them.
* You can [allocate GIVE in Coordinape Gift Circles](https://docs.coordinape.com/get-started/get-started) to recognize and reward value contributed by circle members.

### **As a Reply Cast:**

`@givebot` as a reply cast to another cast, and Givebot will deliver a GIVE to the original caster from you.

### **As a new Cast:**

Givebot responds to format `@givebot @user #skilltag`

When giving from a new cast, you need to @mention another user as the recipient.

The `#skilltag` is an optional way to add more context to the GIVE so others know more about why you want to recognize someone, adding to their onchain reputation history.

You should see the Givebot respond with a message that the GIVE was delivered and a Frame that welcomes you into the GIVE app.
