Swash

Choosing a winner and next steps for the DAOIt’s time to announce the winner and — more importantly — to celebrate the official launch of the Swash DAO.If a qualified participant held their Swash tokens for 60 days (the minimum requirement to qualify) then they will have two entries in the index. If they held for 90 days, then they will have three entries in the index, meaning their chance of winning increases 1.5x. The number of qualified participants determines the size of the prize, and the number of total entries will be used in the winner selection process as follows:<h3 id="choosing-a-winner">Choosing a winner</h3>In order to select a winner at random in a transparent, verifiable, tamper-proof way, we will follow these steps:1. Late on February 15 2023, a file containing a list of all of the entries and their corresponding index number and wallet addresses will be prepared. The total number of entries will be n.Then, this file will be uploaded to IPFS and the link to this IPFS file will be shared on <a href="https://twitter.com/swashapp" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Swash’s official Twitter profile</a>. We will use IPFS because IPFS files are content-addressed and immutable, meaning that everyone can access it and, once published, no one can edit the file.2. On February 16 2023, we will obtain a random four digit number (r) by choosing the two numbers after the decimal of the opening price and the closing price of Bitcoin on CoinMarketCap.For example, if the opening price is 22857.27 and the closing price is 23264.29, then the last two digits after the decimal of each figure will be 27 and 29. That would mean that r is 2729.3.r is the randomly generated number from step 2, we will then find the remainder of r divided by n to determine the winner’s index number.For example, if n &#61; 850 (due to having 850 entries) and r &#61; 2729 (as determined in step 2), then the remainder will be 179.<img src="https://miro.medium.com/max/1280/0*tTks8J2zPJuIcsn3" />In this example, the winner is the person whose wallet address corresponds with index number 179 as defined in the IPFS file.4.The winner will be notified and the prize amount determined by the number of qualified participants will be sent to the wallet address they used.This approach for choosing a winner is completely transparent and easy to verify, while being completely random to avoid any potential bias.<h3 id="the-swash-dao-what-to-expect">The Swash DAO: What to expect</h3>The Swash DAO will also launch on February 16 2023. All qualified participants will be whitelisted for DAO reputation-based voting and will be able to start casting their votes. The DAO will be accessible via the Swash website, hosted through a platform called <a href="https://snapshot.org/#/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Snapshot</a>.The DAO will go live with several proposals on which people can vote straight away. Initially, there will be two methods for voting:Token-based: Determined by how many tokens you hold within a specific time frameReputation-based: Determined by how active you have been as a community memberLater on, more advanced voting mechanisms, such as quadratic voting, will be introduced.For the first version, the contributors will post proposals according to feedback gathered from the community and for suggested development deliverables. Over time, people will be able to post proposals once meeting certain criteria. Each proposal will have its own discussion channel on <a href="https://discord.gg/TsZ4FrBaqu" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Swash’s Discord</a>, so the community can share their thoughts with each other.---<h3 id="about-swash">About Swash</h3>At Swash, if it’s your data, it’s your income.Swash is an ecosystem of tools and services that enable people, businesses, and developers to unlock the latent value of data by pooling, securely sharing, and monetising its value.<ul><li>People share their data to earn while retaining their privacy.</li><li>Businesses access high-quality, zero-party data in a sustainable and compliant way.</li><li>Developers set up and build systems within a collaborative development framework with ease.</li></ul>As the world’s leading Data Union, Swash is reimagining data ownership by enabling all actors of the data economy to earn, access, build and collaborate in a liquid digital ecosystem for data.Let’s connect:<a href="https://twitter.com/swashapp" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Twitter</a> |<a href="https://t.me/swashapp_group" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> Telegram</a> |<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Swash_App/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> Reddit</a> | <a href="https://discord.com/invite/p3DHbgHzdN" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Discord</a> | <a href="https://swashapp.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Website</a> | All linksSwash has completed a Data Protection Impact Assessment with the Information Commissioner’s Office in the UK and is an accredited member of the Data &amp; Marketing Association.Nothing herein should be viewed as legal, tax or financial advice and you are strongly advised to obtain independent legal, tax or financial advice prior to buying, holding or using digital assets, or using any financial or other services and products.
