๐ VISION & MISSION
Vision
From zero to Web3โtogether. Learn. Earn. Co-govern.
Mission
Democratize access to Web3 through a system where completing educational quests generates governance tokens, turning learning effort into voice and vote in the protocol's future.
โ ๏ธ THE PROBLEM
Entry Barriers to Web3
Technical Complexity
The blockchain learning curve intimidates new users, creating a significant barrier to entry.
Lack of Incentives
Traditional education doesn't reward progress, leading to low engagement and completion rates.
Governance-Community Disconnection
Most protocols are governed by early adopters with capital, not by active community members.
No Clear Path
No structured route exists from beginner to contributor in the Web3 ecosystem.
Limitations of Current Models
Airdrop Farming
Mercenary behavior without real commitment to the protocol.
Vote Buying
Power concentration in whales distorts governance decisions.
Superficial Participation
Users voting without understanding proposals creates ineffective governance.
Disconnected Education
Courses that don't lead to active participation or real-world application.
โ
THE SOLUTION: CRYPTOGIFT WALLETS DAO
The Flagship Product: CryptoGift Wallets
CryptoGift Wallets is the core infrastructure of the ecosystemโa production-ready Web3 platform that converts NFTs into fully functional, non-custodial wallets using ERC-6551 token-bound accounts and account abstraction. This technology enables:
NFT = Real Wallet: Each NFT contains an embedded wallet that can hold real cryptocurrency
Gasless Onboarding: New users can receive and claim crypto gifts without needing ETH for gas
Programmable Gifting: Brands, creators, and DAOs can distribute assets at scale
Zero Custody Risk: Fully non-custodial design with no human intermediaries
The DAO's Core Purpose: CryptoGift Wallets DAO exists to bootstrap, govern, and scale this flagship platformโcoordinating development, liquidity, incentives, and community education so that more organizations can use CryptoGift Wallets to onboard new users into Web3.

Core Innovation
CryptoGift Wallets DAO is a Web3 education platform that directly converts learning effort into governance power, creating a cycle of education, participation, and protocol improvement. The DAO governs the development of CryptoGift Wallets, ensuring sustainable growth aligned with community interests.
๐ฐ TOKENOMICS
CGC Token Details
Name: CryptoGift Coin
Symbol: CGC
Initial Supply: 2,000,000 CGC (current circulating)
Max Supply: 22,000,000 CGC (theoretical maximum)
Emission Model: Progressive Milestone-Based Minting
Decimals: 18
Blockchain: Base (Ethereum Layer 2)
Contract: 0x5e3a61b550328f3D8C44f60b3e10a49D3d806175
Type: Pure Governance Token (no economic rights)
Emission Model: Milestone-Based Progressive Minting
Key Principle: New CGC tokens are ONLY minted when the DAO creates measurable value through verified milestone completion.
Unlike traditional fixed-supply or time-based emission models, CGC uses a value-based emission schedule where token supply grows proportionally with platform achievements:
Platform Development Milestones โ New tokens minted
Community Growth Milestones โ New tokens minted
Revenue & Adoption Milestones โ New tokens minted
DAO Governance Decisions โ Can trigger strategic emissions
Primary Minter: MinterGateway v3.3 (0xdd10540847a4495e21f01230a0d39C7c6785598F)
This ensures token supply expansion is always backed by real value creation, preventing dilution while allowing sustainable growth.
Emission Controls (Updated December 2025)
The CGC token uses a governance-controlled emission architecture with multiple security layers:
#### Governance Chain
Aragon DAO โ TimelockController (7-day delay) โ CGC Token Owner
TimelockController: 0x9753d772C632e2d117b81d96939B878D74fB5166
- 7-day delay for all CGC token owner operations
- Proposer/Executor: Aragon DAO
- Prevents immediate malicious changes
MinterGateway v3.3: 0xdd10540847a4495e21f01230a0d39C7c6785598F
- Primary minting mechanism with hard supply cap
- Max Mintable: 20,000,000 CGC (enforced at contract level)
- Requires authorized caller approval for minting
- Owner: Safe 3/5 Multisig (0x11323672b5f9bB899Fa332D5d464CC4e66637b42)
- Guardian (pause only): Safe 2/3 Multisig
MilestoneEscrow: 0x8346CFcaECc90d678d862319449E5a742c03f109
- Task reward distribution (transfers from treasury, no minting)
- EIP-712 verification for secure claims
Security Model:
Token owner is TimelockController, NOT an EOA
All owner operations have 7-day delay for community review
MinterGateway enforces 20M max mintable cap at contract level
Multiple multisig controls prevent single point of failure
Maximum Supply: 22,000,000 CGC total (2M initial + 20M max via Gateway)
Initial Distribution (2M CGC)
The initial 2,000,000 CGC supply is allocated for bootstrapping the ecosystem:
| Allocation | Percentage | Amount | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Referral Program | 25% | 500,000 CGC | User acquisition & growth |
| Educational Rewards | 20% | 400,000 CGC | Quest completions & learning |
| DAO Treasury | 25% | 500,000 CGC | Governance controlled reserves |
| Core Contributors | 15% | 300,000 CGC | 2 years vesting, 6 month cliff |
| Liquidity Pool | 10% | 200,000 CGC | DEX liquidity on Base |
| Emergency Reserve | 5% | 100,000 CGC | Multisig 3/5 security buffer |
Progressive Emission Schedule (20M CGC Future Potential)
The remaining 20,000,000 CGC can be progressively minted through verified milestone achievements:
#### 1. Platform Development Milestones (Target: 8M CGC)
Dashboard v1.0 Launch โ 500,000 CGC
Task System v2.0 โ 1,000,000 CGC
Mobile App Release โ 1,500,000 CGC
Enterprise Features โ 2,000,000 CGC
API Marketplace Launch โ 3,000,000 CGC
#### 2. Community Growth Milestones (Target: 7M CGC)
10,000 Active Users โ 1,000,000 CGC
50,000 Active Users โ 2,000,000 CGC
100,000 Active Users โ 4,000,000 CGC
#### 3. Revenue & Sustainability Milestones (Target: 5M CGC)
$100K ARR โ 1,000,000 CGC
$500K ARR โ 2,000,000 CGC
$1M ARR โ 2,000,000 CGC
Total Maximum Supply: 2M (initial) + 20M (progressive) = 22M CGC
Important Notice on Milestones:
The milestones listed above are illustrative examples of the types of achievements that could trigger token emissions. The actual emission process works as follows:
Proposal: Any CGC holder with 1,000+ tokens can propose a milestone emission
Specification: The proposal must include specific, measurable criteria for the milestone
Voting: The DAO votes on whether the milestone has been achieved
Verification: Achievement is verified through on-chain attestations (EAS) or other verifiable evidence
Execution: Upon approval, new tokens are minted via MinterGateway (requires authorized caller)
This governance-driven approach ensures that milestone definitions evolve with community consensus rather than being fixed at launch. Metrics like "Active Users" or "ARR" will be defined by the DAO through specific proposals that include measurement methodology and verification sources.

โ ๏ธ GOVERNANCE RISKS
DAO-Specific Risk Factors
Participants in CryptoGift Wallets DAO should be aware of the following governance-related risks:
1. Governance Attack Risks
Vote Concentration: Large token holders could potentially influence decisions disproportionately
Flash Loan Attacks: Theoretical risk of borrowing tokens to manipulate votes (mitigated by snapshot-based voting)
Voter Apathy: Low participation could lead to decisions made by small, active minorities
2. Operational Risks
Smart Contract Bugs: Despite testing, undiscovered vulnerabilities may exist
Upgrade Risks: Protocol upgrades could introduce unintended consequences
Key Management: Multisig key holders represent centralization points during early stages
3. Decision-Making Risks
Adverse Proposals: The DAO could theoretically approve proposals harmful to the ecosystem
Coordination Failures: Inability to reach consensus on critical decisions
Regulatory Changes: Future regulations could affect DAO operations
Mitigation Measures:
Minimum participation thresholds (10%) ensure broad consensus
48-hour timelocks allow community review before execution
Emergency pause functionality (3/5 multisig) for critical situations
Gradual decentralization plan to distribute power over time
