Invest In A Project

As an Investor, the only way to participate in a Flex DAO is to invest in the investment projects initiated by Flex DAO, that is, to participate in the fundraising initiated by Flex DAO for a specific investment project.

When a Flex DAO initiates a investment proposal for a specific project and enters the fundraising phase, anyone who meets the Investor Eligibility set by the DAO (wallet address) can participate, deposit funds to the investment project and seek an investment share to become an investor for the specific investment project.

Before Involved

Participating in the fundraising of a specific investment project in Flex DAO requires the following considerations:

  • Carefully read the information provided by the Scout about the investment project. In general, you can find the introductions and links to this in the investment proposal.
  • Learn more about the Scout of the investment proposal. To some extent, you can judge the quality of this investment based on the Scout’s performance and abilities.
  • View the DAO's portfolio to see the DAO's previous investment performance.
  • Take a closer look at the Fee settings of DAO and the investment proposal, including Governor Fee & Carry and Scout Fee & Carry.
  • Check the participation limits of the current investment proposal, including the Investor Limit and Investor Eligibility, so that you know whether you are eligible to participate.

Make A Deposit

When a Flex DAO's investment proposal is approved (if DAO enable the TempCheck component) and Fundraising is started, you can see its current status and data on the fundraising page of the investment proposal, such as the fundraising goal and the amount currently raised, and the countdown to the fundraising period. If you decide to invest in this project, you only need to:

  1. Click the Deposit button in the Deposit module.
  2. Then enter the amount you wish to deposit in the input box that pops up (the minimum deposit threshold and the maximum limit that can be deposited depend on the minimum Deposit and Maximum Deposit settings set for that investment proposal).
  3. Confirm that the amount is correct, click Deposit button again, and after two wallet transaction confirmations, the deposit is successful.

One thing to note is that you need to understand how the fund will be raised this time.

  • In a FCFS type of fundraising, when you successfully advance deposit before fundraising closes, then your advance deposit is equal to final deposit in the fund if fundraising success.
  • In a Free-In type of fundraising, your final deposit in the fund depends on a number of other factors, such us proportional allocation to deposits under overfunding, and Priority Depositors have priority allocation privileges. Check Fundraising for details.

When you become a investor of a specific investment project in a Flex DAO, you can see this investment in the portfolios tab on the DAO's My page, along with your investment amount.

If you have already made an advance deposit, but the investment fails to raise funds, you can get the refund from the fundraising page for the investment project. If you participate in a Free-In type of fundraising, but only a part of your advance deposit is finally accepted and confirmed at the final allocation of investment share, then you can get the remaining deposit refunded in the fundraising page for the investment project. See Refund In A Project for details.
