Description

This bounty gives the opportunity to

• learn about DAOs and how they work
• learn about cycles on the IC
• learn about governance on the IC

The goal of this bounty is to create a DAO that collects cycles for a particular application’s canisters and rewards users that supply those cycles with DAO tokens that can be used to manage the DAO.

Functions:

wallet_recieve()-> async () - must be called from a cycle wallet that can pass cycles. Use the experimental_cycles functionality to deposit the cycles and mint new DAOTokens according to the following schedule:

• If the Canister has more than MAX_CYCLES, refund all cycles.
• Consult the CYCLE_EXCHANGE_CONFIG and reward enough cycles to get to MAX_CYCLES and reward with minted tokens according to the menu levls. If MAX_CYCLES is greater than the highest configuration should use the highest configuration as max_cycles. Default Config:

MAX_CYCLES = 150_000_000_000_000;

[
    {min:0; max:2_000_000_000_000; rate_per_T: 1: float;}
    {min:2_000_000_000_000; max:10_000_000_000_000; rate_per_T: 0.8: float;}
    {min:10_000_000_000_000; max:50_000_000_000_000; rate_per_T: 0.4: float;}
    {min:50_000_000_000_000; max:150_000_000_000_000; rate_per_T: 0.2: float;}
]

The canister should support calling the DIP20, EXT(Fungible), and Ledger canister standards for the issued DAOToken for fungible tokens and DIP721, EXT(non-fungible), and the nft_origyn standard for NFTs. The canister should be a minting canister for the DAO token canister and call mint on the DAO token canister passing in the determined value as the token value(fungible) or the meta_data variable if an NFT.

The canister should implement:

configure_dao(command: ConfigureDAOCommand) -> async Nat;

Each command must be submitted to the configured governance canister for approval. The governance canister should return a Nat that is a unique proposal id. The governance canister is free to implement any approval or voting scheme that it would like.

type ConfigureDAOCommand:{
    #UpdateMaxCycles: Nat;
    #UpdateMintConfig: [ExchangeLevel];
    #DistributeBalance: { //sends any balance of a token/NFT to the provided principal;
        to: Principal
        token_principal: Principal;
        amount: Nat; //1 for NFT
        id: ?{#Text: Text; #Nat: Nat}; //used for nfts
        standard: Text;
    };
    #DistributeCycles; //cycle through the allow list and distributes cycles to bring tokens up to the required balance
    #DistributeRequestedCycles; //cycle through the request list and distributes cycles to bring tokens up to the required balance
    #ConfigureDAOToken: {
        principal: Principal;
    };
    #AddAllowList: {
        principal: Principal;
        min_cycles: Nat;
    };
    #RequestTopUp: { //lets canister pull cycles
        principal: Principal;
    };
    #RemoveAllowList: {
        principal: Principal;
    }
    #ConfigureGovernanceCanister: {
        principal: Principal;
    };
};

type ExchangeLevel {
    min: Nat;
    max: Nat;
    rate_per_T: Float;
};

The canister should implement execute_proposal(Nat) -> Result<Bool, Error> that runs a proposal and should only be callable by the governance canister.

As an implementation detail of DistributeCycles, it should likely be wired up via timer function and automatically approved and executed by the governance canister. The internal logic should keep it from running too often.

The canister should implement query cycle_balance() -> Nat that returns the current number of cycles in the canister.

The inspiration for this kind of generic infrastructure was inspired by Max and the InfinitySwap team that is implementing something similar to support their canisters.
