Introducing United DAO
United DAO is a next generation decentralized protocol based on the native token – UTD. United DAO seeks to usher in the new age of DeFi 3.0 through Establishing True Credibility, Strong Corporate Governance and Active Risk Management for our stakeholders.
NEXT EVOLUTION OF DEFI
United DAO’s Core Protocol is underpinned by three unique propositions - United Allies Program, Rewards & Utility Program, and Treasury Management – along with strong enablers. With this, United DAO aims to overcome the shortcomings of its predecessors and build a long-term, sustainable protocol.
United DAO was founded by an experienced, versatile team with wide-ranging experiences - spanning blockchain, economics, finance, and more. This provides a strong foundation for the protocol's build, while maintaining an end vision of having a completely DAO-led protocol.
THE UNITED DAO PROPOSITION
United DAO comprises the Core Protocol, enabling participants to participate through its bonding and staking strategies, while introducing three unique value propositions – United Allies Program, Rewards & Utility Program, and Treasury Management.
Core Protocol
Two primary participation strategies exist – Bonding, and Staking
Bonding enables participants to purchase UTD tokens at a discounted price to the market, allowing the protocol to accumulate liquidity and reserves.
Staking enables participants to stake their UTD to earn attractive rebase rewards, stabilizing the protocol.
United Allies Program
UTD DAO introduces the United Allies Program, designed to enable growing and building the community and treasury.
An innovate affiliate referral program, the "Hive" community, and promotional events form the core of a continually evolving program.
Rewards & Utility Program
UTD DAO introduces an exclusive rewards token (mUTD), which can be earned through a pledge or burn mechanism.
The mUTD token can then be used for purposes such as, a rewards shop, or early access to partner launches. (COMING SOON, refer to roadmap)
Treasury Management
UTD DAO aims to take an active approach to manage the treasury through liquidity, growth and hedging strategies.
Onboarded and future advisors and partners provide access and expertise, in what will ultimately be decided and approved by the DAO.
