Allocation Breakdown
1. Liquidity Pool (10%)
Provides initial liquidity on Uniswap to facilitate seamless trading and price stability.
2. Community & Ecosystem (40%)
This allocation is intended for:
- Staking rewards.
- Ecosystem growth and incentives.
- Partnerships, grants, contributors.
3. Treasury & Growth Fund (40%)
Allocated for the development and sustainability of CloudAI, including:
- AI model improvements and CloudVerse expansion.
- Infrastructure upgrades and operational costs.
4. Founder Allocation (10%)
Reserved for the founder, subject to a 5-year vesting schedule with a 1-year cliff to ensure long-term commitment.
Governance & Transparency
- The Community & Ecosystem allocation is managed by the CloudAI DAO.
- The Treasury & Growth Fund is governed through a multi-sig wallet with a community veto system.
Usage, Governance & Vesting
Community & Ecosystem Governance
- Managed by the DAO, allowing token stakers to propose and vote on fund allocation.
- Funds can be used for growth initiatives, partnerships, or burned if deemed unnecessary.
- To maintain price stability and sustainability, the Community & Ecosystem Fund may be vested over time, rather than being available all at once.
Treasury Governance: Multi-Sig with Community Oversight
To ensure efficiency and security, the Treasury & Growth Fund is controlled via a multi-sig wallet with:
- Multi-Sig Signers: A group of 5 to 7 elected signers manage the treasury.
- Approval Threshold: A majority (e.g., 3 out of 5 or 4 out of 7) must approve transactions.
- Community Veto System:
- Transactions are subject to a veto period (e.g., 72 hours) before execution.
- If a certain percentage of token stakers (e.g., 10-20%) veto the transaction, it is blocked.
- Regular Transparency Reports: Treasury transactions will be publicly accessible on-chain, with periodic community reports.
Treasury Vesting & Stability
- To maintain price stability and sustainability, the Treasury & Growth Fund may be vested over time, rather than being available all at once. This prevents large token movements that could impact market dynamics.
- If funds remain unused, a portion can be burned to optimize tokenomics.
Founder Vesting Schedule
- 1-Year Cliff: No tokens released in the first year.
- 4-Year Vesting: Tokens then unlock gradually over four years, ensuring long-term commitment.
