Recently, the DXdao community identified a misconfiguration with its governance framework on Arbitrum, which effectively made it impossible for SWPR farming campaigns to be launched. If you owned SWPR before this time, you will be required to migrate your tokens over from the old contracts. See the “SWPR Conversion and Farming Plan Update” and “How to Claim and Convert SWPR on Arbitrum One” articles for details.
Since the issue has been identified, the DXdao and Swapr community has been working tirelessly to prepare the redeployment. As of today, DXvote, the Swapr dApp and SWPR token contracts have been redeployed on…
August was an extremely exciting month, particularly the last day when DXdao launched the SWPR token, the first airdrop on Arbitrum One and any Ethereum Layer 2. The token launch comes after months of community discussion and just hours after Arbitrum One was fully opened and made permissionless.
SWPR
The SWPR token is the governance token for Swapr. The token launch plan passed by DXdao included an airdrop to kickstart the SWPR community distribution by targeting active governance communities for 1inch, BanklessDAO, StakeDAO amongst others. The community is also discussing plans to launch SWPR liquidity mining campaigns, utilizing Swapr’s DIY farming…
Background and Timeline
Note: Users won’t need to take action until a DXdao proposal is submitted and passed on-chain, updating the Swapr ENS and opening the SWPR converter. This can be done after the ENS update proposal has been passed on-chain, with a written conversion guide available at that time. The only place to convert SWPR will be through the Swapr.eth domain; follow the Swapr Twitter for follow-up announcements.
A misconfiguration with a new DXdao governance framework on Abritrum One has been identified, making it impossible to launch Swapr farming campaigns or manage the Swapr protocol fee. DXdao community members are working around…
Claiming and Converting the SWPR Airdrop
If you are looking for steps on Converting your SWPR, it can be found below the claim section in this article. If you are looking for the SWPR token announcement, you can find that here.
Claiming SWPR
Both the Community Airdrop and DXdao Airdrop are claim-drops. This means you must visit the Swapr dApp and claim your tokens manually; SWPR tokens will not automatically appear in your wallet. These drops will be claimable on the Arbitrum network where gas fees are significantly reduced.
Step-By-Step
- Visit the Swapr dApp.
Always ensure you are visiting the correct address (Swapr.eth.link); if there are any doubts of…
SWPR Token and Liquidity Mining
With the passage of a signal proposal on Saturday, DXdao is set to launch the SWPR token to attract and develop an engaged community to govern Swapr into the future. The launch comes more than a year after a governance-enabled AMM was first ideated and is the culmination of months of work between the DXdao community and the Swapr squad. The SWPR token launch also coincides with the launch of Arbitrum One, which is the third network that Swapr is live on.
SWPR tokens for the initial airdrop can now be claimed at Swapr.eth on Arbitrum One. …
Two years of on-chain governance!
July was a month of milestones for DXdao. The most prominent, of course, was the celebration of two years of on-chain governance on July 14th. The community marked the occasion with the issuance of special POAP (Proof-of-Attendance-Protocol) tokens, distributed to any address that participated in DXdao governance and those that attended the two year anniversary community call in Discord.
DXdao passed two years of on-chain governance today, one of the longest histories of on-chain governance for any DAO. The community is commemorating the occasion with a special Proof-of-Attendance (POAP) token to all 183 addresses that have participated in DXdao governance over the last two years on Mainnet and xDai. The community is also using this as an opportunity to take stock of the progress of DXdao and what to focus on in the future.
Humble beginnings
DXdao (or dxDAO) started as a radical experiment in decentralization. The Ethereum community has always been intrigued by organizations that would live entirely on-chain. The…
Swapr Beta launch + DXD/ETH farming campaigns
June saw the long awaited release of Swapr Beta. Its most exciting feature is the permissionless farming platform where anyone can launch their own farming campaign for an ERC20 token. Swapr Beta is live on mainnet and xDai (and coming soon to Arbitrum).
To coincide with the launch, DXdao launched several farming campaigns through proposals on mainnet and xDai. There were two campaigns targeting the DXD/ETH pairs on both chains. One was a locked campaign with a staking cap while the other was a standard stake and withdraw. All campaigns feature dual rewards (DXD & ETH). …
In conjunction with last week’s launch of Swapr Beta, DXdao is using its treasury funds to launch farming campaigns for the Swapr DXD/WETH pools on mainnet and xDai. The campaign is meant to showcase Swapr’s new permissionless farming platform. Permissionless means anyone can launch a campaign on Swapr — even a DAO. Read on to find more about:
- Farming rewards for campaigns starting Friday, June 25 at 15:00 UTC
- Overview of how DXdao governance initiated the farming campaign
- A quick guide on how to farm on Swapr!
Reward details
The xDai campaign proposals have already been executed, while the mainnet proposals are…
DXdao decided to launch a second Omen Markets Competition in order to leverage the community to source good markets for Omen.
The proposal to run another “DXdao Community Competition for Omen Markets — Batch #2” passed on May 22, and kicked off the competition which ran from May 23rd to June 8th, 2021.
There was strong community participation with over 160 market ideas entered into the competition. With so many interesting markets, it was up to REP holders to vote on the best markets.
