XDAO

XDAO SECURITY IN THE AGE OF AI: AUDIT BY @AnthropicAI AND @trailofbits 🛡 You've probably heard of Mythos — Anthropic's new AI model. It is so powerful that it uncovers vulnerabilities in systems that were considered impenetrable for decades and went unnoticed by human experts. Due to its unprecedented capabilities, Mythos is not yet available to the public — Anthropic has restricted access to Claude Mythos Preview under Project Glasswing, granting it to a limited number of major technology, financial, and infrastructure organizations (including @Microsoft, @Google, @Apple, @amazon, and @CrowdStrike) for cybersecurity purposes. For example, Mythos identified logic errors in cryptographic library implementations that had been used in banking systems and secure communication protocols since the 1990s. What thousands of cybersecurity professionals considered the gold standard of reliability for 30 years, AI deconstructed in a matter of hours. Anthropic's technology was also applied to XDAO's infrastructure. Through the security audit firm Trail of Bits, we received a report: Mythos discovered a vulnerability in one of the auxiliary modules on EVM blockchains that could theoretically allow minting of DAO LP tokens. Our team promptly reviewed the report and patched the bug immediately upon confirmation by Trail of Bits specialists. What the community should know XDAO's core smart contracts also underwent deep scanning by the AI model. No vulnerabilities were found in the system's core. This once again confirms that the protocol's architecture is soundly designed, and that user funds have always been and remain fully secure. We thank the Anthropic and Trail of Bits teams for their assistance with the audit and their invaluable contribution to strengthening XDAO's security 🤝❤️ In the world of decentralized finance, AI technologies are becoming our greatest ally.

@colosseum The ai-only-vibecoded-in-3-hours submission era ends overnight, finally 😆

For future hackathons, what if we required all participants to stake 1 SOL along with their product submission? If the submission was determined to be in the bottom 50%, your deposit would get slashed. For startups in the top 50%, their deposit would be returned.

XDAO IS TRAINING AI TO RUN DIGITAL COMPANIES Dear community, we have a lot of important updates to share, and we want to give you a clear picture of where XDAO is headed. 🤖 Expanding to Solana and Embracing AI The XDAO team is building a product for fully legal DAOs in US jurisdictions, powered by the @solana blockchain. Why Solana? It's one of the fastest-growing blockchains with a strong developer community, especially in the US, which is currently the most active market for DAOs. On top of that, the US has a well-developed legal framework that enables compliant cryptocurrency operations and governance. But this isn't just about choosing a market or a blockchain. We're building a fundamentally new, fully AI-native protocol. Specialized agents, what we call "AI bureaucrats", will handle DAO setup and take care of all the heavy lifting for you: registration, paperwork, and other operational tasks. With this, you get truly autonomous governance: you'll be able to plug in AI as a full-fledged manager of your organization, operating within the parameters you define. This isn't an upgrade to an old model. It's a completely new vision of what DAOs can be. ✅ XDAO Token & Airdrop: What You Need to Know Dear community, we deeply appreciate your contribution to the project. For those who have been farming tokens and creating DAOs on TON: you've already done everything you need to do. No additional actions are required. The crowdfunding, vesting, and distribution modules are only relevant for those actively using the product to raise liquidity and manage finances. They are not required to qualify for the airdrop. We're closely watching the market, and our goal is to launch the token at the right time and in the right place, when the foundation is solid enough. We want the XDAO token to have real utility and lasting value, not just ride a wave of hype. We keep building regardless of market conditions. Thank you for your trust. The new capabilities of XDAO will surprise you. We're not done — not even close. Thank you for being with us at the forefront of DAO and AI innovation.

YOU ASKED — WE'RE BUILDING Two new modules for XDAO crowdfunding are now in active development. Mass Payout is one of the key challenges for any DAO after a successful crowdfunding campaign. Mass Payout solves it head-on: the DAO distributes funds to all LP holders proportionally to their share. Once a month, once a year — as many rounds as needed 💸 Vesting is the feature you've been asking for. Vesting allows LP tokens to be released not all at once when the campaign ends, but gradually — with a delay and linear unlock. This is a game changer for founders: instead of instant token distribution, a structured schedule that retains participants and builds contributor confidence. Both modules are independent of each other, installed through a DAO vote, and have zero impact on existing campaigns. Stay tuned 👀

XDAO — Create and Manage DAOs in Telegram XDAO is an infrastructure for digital autonomous organizations on @ton_blockchain. Create a DAO, bring your community on board, and make decisions together — all without leaving @telegram. 🌉 Crowdfunding is the core of what we do. Any DAO can launch a campaign and collect contributions by issuing LP tokens — each token reflects a participant's level of involvement. Contributions in TON and stablecoins, soft/hard caps, whitelists for private rounds, multi-round campaigns, automatic refunds if the goal isn't met. Over $55M has already been collected through XDAO on EVM chains. Now the same engine — rebuilt and expanded — is live on TON. 📼 We've added a video walkthrough to the step-by-step Crowdfunding Setup Guide. Watch it, follow along, launch your first campaign in minutes. 📽️ Video Guide: youtube.com/watch?v=_lR7Ki… 📃 Step-by-Step Setup Guide: leather-mandolin-8b1.notion.site/XDAO-Crowdfund…

💵 Your DAO Can Now Raise Capital Directly Through Telegram — We're Launching the Crowdfunding Module on TON XDAO is the first platform to deliver a full-featured crowdfunding tool for DAOs. Until today, nothing like this existed in the TON ecosystem. 🧩 How it works. Every contributor receives LP tokens upon participation — these tokens represent their share in the campaign. Payouts are then distributed through the same tokens, proportionally to each person's contribution. Fundraising for business ideas, investments, charitable initiatives — everything is transparent, built on smart contracts, with real-time notifications. This is where the true power of decentralized autonomous organizations comes to life — collective financial management by the community. 💰 Battle-tested. The same module on EVM chains (Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, and others) has already proven its worth — communities across our DAOs have raised over $55M through crowdfunding. It's one of the most popular tools on the platform, and now it's available on TON. We didn't just port the module — we significantly expanded its functionality. We poured in all the experience and every piece of feedback we've gathered from our users over the years. Capital management in the TON and Telegram ecosystem is entering a whole new level, and it matters to us that you'll be the first to experience it. 👨‍💻 Months of development and testing — here's what we've built for you: 👀 Raise funds by selling LP (Liquidity Provider) tokens — a new token type that reflects each participant's share of contribution 👀 Contributions accepted in TON and stablecoins (USDT, USDe) 👀 Flexible campaign configuration — with optional delayed start and end dates 👀 Soft cap and hard cap, plus entry thresholds and per-participant limits 👀 Automatic LP token minting proportional to contribution 👀 Sub-Wallets — isolated wallets for each campaign 👀 Whitelist mode for private rounds 👀 Management fee — GP token holders receive their reward in LP tokens credited to the DAO's balance, aligning the interests of managers with those of participants 👀 Multi-round fundraising on a single LP contract (Round 1 → Round 2 → Round 3…) 👀 100% refund if the soft cap isn't reached — with zero platform fees 👀 Source of Funds Certificate — a PDF document with the full campaign history 👀 Notifications via bot directly in your Telegram community chat 👀 All decisions are made through GP voting — nothing happens without consensus 📂 Getting started. We've prepared a convenient Crowdfunding Setup Guide right inside the app — it will walk you through every step. You can find it on any DAO's page, as well as on the app's home screen. Full details are in the documentation attached to this post. Everything is laid out clearly and step by step: leather-mandolin-8b1.notion.site/XDAO-Crowdfund… 💸 Your feedback matters. We're running at full capacity right now — try it out, test it, reach out to us. Every piece of feedback genuinely helps us make the product better. Stay tuned — we'll be breaking down each element of the module in dedicated posts coming soon. You know we're building something real and useful. And of course, you'll see it for yourselves 👀🔥 ⚠️ Disclaimer. Always do your own research (DYOR) before participating in any crowdfunding campaign. By contributing funds, you are entrusting them to GP holders — the people who manage the DAO's treasury through multisig. Before contributing, make sure you know and trust these individuals. XDAO provides the infrastructure but bears no responsibility for the decisions of individual DAOs and their managers.

XDAO Crowdfunding: How It Works 💸 The most anticipated and powerful tool in the XDAO ecosystem is in the final stages. We aren’t just adding a fundraising feature — we are implementing professional investment architecture directly within @telegram. This is a tool for long-term builders, not "one-day" projects. How it changes the game: ⚙️ Automated Mechanics. The fundraising process is fully automated. General Partners (GPs) set round parameters via Consensus, and the smart contract handles the rest — from processing payments to minting LP (Liquidity Partner) tokens. 💰 LP Tokens = Real Ownership. Investors contribute funds with a single tap and receive liquid LP tokens. This is on-chain proof of their contribution and rights to future profits. Everything is transparent and secured on the blockchain. 🛡️ Rock-Solid Protection. Our smart contracts guarantee security for both parties. If the Soft Cap isn't reached, investors get their money back automatically. No "stuck" funds and no manual refunds. ⚡ Flexible Investment Rounds. Launch as many rounds as your project needs. Private sales for "whales" or public sales for the community — each with different entry prices and conditions. One DAO — infinite possibilities. 🏛️ Funds Under Consensus Control. No personal wallets. All investments flow directly into the DAO treasury via a dedicated sub-account for each project. Any movement of funds requires GP voting and approval. We are finishing the final tests and getting everything ready for launch. The start is just around the corner 🏁

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, XDAO fam! 🎄✨ 2025 is coming to an end, and we want to be honest with you. This year, together we launched the first DAO ecosystem on Telegram.

The First DAO for a Rice Paddy — in Japan 🌾 In May 2024, something unusual happened in the small town of Kofu: farmers, doctors, and entrepreneurs came together to form a DAO — to collectively manage a rice paddy. The idea belongs to Dr. Shin Kasahara. He believes that human health begins with the soil. That's why the 20 DAO members don't just buy rice in advance — they vote on when to weed, which natural fertilizers to use, and even submit health tests to track how working the land affects their bodies. For farmers, it's a lifeline: stable income instead of gambling on market prices. For Japan, with its aging rural population, it's a survival experiment. No tokens for the sake of hype. Just 2,500 m² of land, collective decision-making, and pesticide-free rice. The project caught attention at the national level: Minister for Economic Revitalization Yoshitaka Shindo — the architect of the "Digital Garden City Nation" program aimed at digitizing rural Japan — sent a video address to the rice planting ceremony, calling the DAO a model for the entire country. One member has already moved to Kofu — to help the cooperative on the ground. Sometimes the future smells like fresh soil... and rice 🍚

"DeFi didn’t survive every cycle just to share the spotlight with hype coins. Real value doesn’t need noise to stay relevant" — old crypto wisdom 👴🏻

DAOs are moving beyond DeFi and growing faster than any other non-financial segment 🚀 According to fresh data, non-financial DAOs (media, gaming, content, creative projects) grew by +25% over the past year Why this segment is booming: 🎮 Gaming. Players can actually own a piece of the project, vote on updates, and even share revenue — instead of being “just users” ▶ Media & content. Teams use DAOs to produce content together, manage the project collectively, and distribute earnings transparently 🎨 Creative work. Artists, writers, and fans team up to create characters and entire universes — with IP owned collectively by the participants Before: DAO = DeFi and protocols Now: DAO = games, series, comics, content, and collective IP

AI companions are leveling up 🤔 @Treasure_DAO has introduced their AI agent $MIO, which already plays Monopoly and Minecraft alongside real players… Next up is CS:GO, where the agent won’t just play — it will trade items online and tap into real Web2 economies The key idea is cross-platform AI companions that can be linked to a DAO and launched across different games. These agents will be able to farm resources, collect loot, complete tasks, and even generate value for their owners 🎮 Looks like “game bots” are turning into full-fledged digital assets that work for you — and are owned on-chain by a DAO

The total value of assets held across all DAOs has reached a new high of $24.5 billion 💰 Fresh data for 2025: ⚡the average treasury size per DAO is ~$1.2M ⚡top DAOs like Uniswap, Aave, Maker, Arbitrum, and Optimism each manage $500M+, holding the majority of the market ⚡the sector has grown +30% over the past year For comparison: 🔹in 2023, DAOs held only $10–12B 🔹in 2021, around $6B That’s nearly a 4x increase in just a few years! DAOs are accumulating capital faster than any other Web3 organizational model — and today’s numbers look more like a starting point than a peak 📈

DAO mess up too sometimes 😬 A recent breakdown from DAO Times highlights an uncomfortable truth: many DAOs lose funds not because of hacks, but because of plain human sloppiness. Opaque grants, weak treasury oversight, and the absence of clear rules all turn into budget leaks, lost trust, and governance chaos 💥 Typical scenarios: — grants handed out “to friends,” with no clear criteria — zero reporting, or no one actually reviewing it — treasury scattered across random wallets with questionable access — votes happen formally, but no one executes the decisions In the end, the DAO technically exists, but money disappears into the void, and contributors burn out and quietly walk away 🙅‍♂ A solid legal foundation, clear rules, written agreements and transparency aren’t bureaucracy — they’re the only way to protect the treasury and maintain community trust. Especially when a DAO grows and the stakes go from $100 to millions $$$ Full breakdown here 👇🏼 daotimes.com/the-dark-side-…

Your DAO after you hit /create_charter:

Another $9.4M crypto fraud case resulted in a five-year federal sentence: decrypt.co/348733/oklahom… The scheme promised mining and trading returns that did not exist Cases like this demonstrate the importance of real governance and a robust legal structure in Web3 Legal DAOs provide accountability and transparency from day one btw 😎

Anime in the hands of the community: what Japan DAO is doing 🎌 Japan has launched an interesting platform where artists, writers, and fans come together to create new anime projects collectively 🤨 The mechanics are simple: someone brings an idea for a character or universe → the community votes → the DAO allocates a budget and assembles a team → the IP is distributed among those who actually contributed Professional artists and writers are already involved, and fans influence the process not just through voting but by choosing the direction: which characters should go into production, which universe to develop, what merch to release, and how the project should evolve. All of this is tied to holding tokens of specific projects 💃 IP (Intellectual Property) means the rights to characters, worlds, merchandise, and licensing. Usually, studios keep full control of these rights, and creators receive only a tiny share of the profits In @japandao, the IP belongs to the creators and the community that supported the launch, so a significant share of the profits goes not to the studio but to the people who actually contributed 🤩

DAO gets its first license in a real jurisdiction 📁 The Bermuda Monetary Authority has issued an official license to @DDX_Official — a derivatives platform fully governed by a DAO. This is the first license of its kind in the world What this means in simple terms: — a government regulator has recognized a structure where decisions are made not by a CEO or a company, but by a community of tokenholders — DAOs have been given a green light to operate legally in an offshore jurisdiction — projects like this can now bring in institutional players, work with big companies, and not worry that “the regulator will shut everything down” And one important clarification to avoid confusion: we’ve had DAO LLCs in Wyoming and the Marshall Islands, but in those cases the licenses were issued to legal entities created around a DAO. Here, the licensed entity is the platform directly governed by the DAO, without turning it into a traditional company. This is a fundamentally different level of recognition 👍 In essence, this is the first case where a DAO-governed model has been tested against real-world legal standards — and officially approved. Not an experiment, but a fully recognized business format 😎
