Relationships Between Roles In Flex DAO
The Governor, Investor, Scout, and TempCheck Voter are four different roles in the Flex DAO. They are not mutually exclusive, and a person (wallet address) can have one or more roles at the same time. Governor is a role that applies to the entire DAO scope. Investors, Scout, and TempCheck Voter are all roles specific to a project.
For example, if Jack is one of the governors of DAO XYZ and he submitted the investment proposal for Project A, then he is the Scout for Project A; He participated in the temperature check of Project B, and he was the TempCheck Voter of Project B; He has deposited money in the fundraising of Project C and successfully obtained the investment share, so he is the Investor of Project C.
Eligibility of Roles
Each role has its own access conditions and does not affect each other. Governor, Investor, Scout, and TempCheck Voter all have four setting options: ERC20, ERC721, ERC1155, and whitelist. You can choose only one of the four options as required entry criteria and set the minimum holding of the required tokens. Note that these are only entry conditions for each Role, and people who meet those eligibilities do not automatically have a role.
A Governor nominee must be approved by existing Governors before becoming a new governor. Those who meet role eligibility, must submit proposals, conduct TempCheck Voting, or deposit and successfully obtain investment shares to become a Scout, TempCheck Voter, or Investor of a certain project.
