ChainFunded
DAO

Stewarding the world's first fully on-chain prop trading evaluation protocol. Rules enforced by code. Payouts executed by smart contracts. Governed by CFG token holders.

Our Mission

Protocol stewardship through code, not promises.

What We Do

The ChainFunded DAO is a Decentralised Autonomous Organisation that stewards the ChainFunded protocol — governing protocol parameters through CFG token holders, managing the LP capital pool, and funding ecosystem development through grants.

What We Don't Do

The DAO does not operate the trading platform, hold user funds in bank accounts, or make discretionary payout decisions. The protocol operates autonomously through smart contracts on Ethereum. Payouts are verified cryptographically and executed on-chain. No human approval. No delays. No discretion.

Memberless Structure

No shareholders, no equity, no beneficial owners. Governed by its constitution and CFG token holders through on-chain governance.

🔒

Non-Custodial

All funds are held in smart contracts on Ethereum, not in bank accounts. LPs can verify their position and withdraw at any time.

🛠

Open Source

All smart contracts are verified on Etherscan. Protocol rules are transparent and immutable per challenge. Audit reports are published.

On-Chain Transparency

Every metric is verifiable on Ethereum. No self-reported numbers.

Metrics update live from ChainFundedPool.sol on Ethereum. Capital Pool Surplus = capital pool balance minus total CFND supply (unowned reserves from failed trader fees).

Governed by CFG Token Holders

Protocol parameters are controlled by on-chain governance, not by the DAO team.

How It Works

1

Propose

Any CFG holder with 250,000+ tokens (0.25%) can create a governance proposal.

2

Vote

All delegated CFG holders vote during a 5-day voting period. 4% quorum required to pass.

3

Execute

Passed proposals queue in a 2-day Timelock, then execute on-chain. Anyone can trigger execution.

Governance Parameters

Proposal Threshold250,000 CFG (0.25%)
Quorum4% of total supply (4M CFG)
Voting Delay1 day (~7,200 blocks)
Voting Period5 days (~36,000 blocks)
Timelock Delay2 days (172,800 seconds)
ExecutionOpen (anyone can call execute)

What Governance Controls

  • Default challenge rules (profit targets, drawdown limits, min days)
  • Trader profit split percentage
  • Challenge tier sizes and fees
  • Affiliate commission tiers and rates
  • ECDSA signer key rotation
  • Protocol wallet address
  • Treasury allocation and grants
  • Emergency actions (pause, withdrawals)
