What is DAO Maker?

Dao Maker is a venture capital and accelerator firm known primarily for being the leading platform in ROI (return on investment), combined market capitalization, the volume of the projects they have launched, and any relevant metrics. They offer their community the opportunity to invest in high-quality projects with a lot of potential.

In other words, DAO Maker is a platform dedicated to launching projects (a Launchpad) in which different projects can not only be presented and made known, but also have all the necessary tools to build a community, a governance system and various dynamics that allow them to evolve and grow within the crypto ecosystem. 

All this, of course, making use of the power of Web3 and the smart contracts, since DAO Maker is capable of performing all these operations through its powerful dApp, allowing the presentation, capitalization and development of projects to take place from start to finish, within decentralized system and focused on strengthening crypto communities. 

Among the projects that have chosen DAO Maker to become a reality we have names like My Neighbor Alice (ALICE), Orion Protocol (ORN), Seascape Network (CWS), Step.app (STEP), Sweat Economy (SWEAT), Hubble (HBB) or Infinity Pad (IPAD), among others.  

Origin of DAO Maker

DAO Maker is the brainchild of Christoph Zaknun (current CEO of the platform) and Hatu Sheikh.  Both founders have been in the crypto space for over four years. Christoph Zaknun has been helping projects raise funds since 2017. He has worked with large Layer 1 Blockchains like Avalanche and has helped projects like Elrond raise funds for their private sale. Knife Maker It began by providing a governance tool for Blockchains such as Avalanche, Elrond, Harmony, NEM and others, evolving to become the leading and most established launch pad.

Hatu Sheikh, current Chief Strategy Officer and co-founder started en 2016 to co-manage a $3.4 million budget for Long Island County, NY. In 2017, he worked at the American University of Dubai as a Professor of Mathematics. In 2018, he started his career in the blockchain sector. Hatu joined the blockchain space in January 2018 and initially promoted AmaZix clients, but soon switched to promoting Block72 clients.

In late 2018, he launched his own marketing agency for various wallets, exchanges, and late-stage projects. In 2019, she joined ICO DOG, a fundraising marketing agency. In 2020, he co-founded DAO Maker, the blockchain accelerator, with Christoph.

Over time, DAO Maker has been the cradle of countless projects and has become a one of the most important launchpads in the crypto ecosystem. 

CAD Maker Launchpad

DaoMaker offers a wide range of products, such as its launch pad (public and private SHOs), community sales, Fairdrops, staking farms, and vesting contracts.

The DAO Maker Launchpad is the main service provided by DAO Maker. The idea behind this service is that project creators can boost your ideas using the DAO Maker community, while users have the possibility of accessing new and interesting crypto projects, through first-rate sales systems before they hit the market.

To achieve this, DAO Maker uses two participation models that are given through Strong Holders Offering (SHO):

1. public SHO. Public SHOs allow anyone with more than $500 in any token in their wallet to participate.
2. private SHO. Only users with a minimum of 250 DAO in stake can participate in private SHOs. Private SHO participants earn a guaranteed allowance. Based on a tier system, the higher the amount of staked DAO tokens, the higher the allocation a user can earn and the more overall functionality they will have on the platform. 

The tier system is organized like this:

• Tier 0: 250 DAO = 250 DAO Power, 0% bonus
• Tier 1: 2000 DAO = 2100 DAO Power, 5% bonus
• Tier 2: 4000 DAO = 4400 DAO Power, 10% bonus
• Tier 3: 10,000 DAO = 11,500 DAO Power, 15% bonus
• Tier 4: 25,000 DAO = 30,000 DAO Power, 20% bonus
• Tier 5: 50,000 DAO = 62,500 DAO Power, 25% bonus
• Tier 6: 100,000 DAO = 130,000 DAO Power, 30% bonus

The higher the Power DAO, the higher the allowance the user gets.

Stake DAO in DAO Maker

As part of the DAO token utility strategy and in order to give access to advanced functionalities, DAO Maker enabled the DAO Stake service. 

The system allows users and holders of DAO tokens to stake it for receive staking rewards y at the same time gain DAO Power to access other features available on the platform. 

Among these functions we can mention:

1. Participation in private SHOs. 
2. Participate in Venture Staking Options
3. Vote for the startups and projects that will be accepted into the launchpad (in the form of our community sales) and guarantee an allocation. 
4. Take part in the governance of the protocol. 

What makes DAO Maker unique and valuable?

At this point, it is clear that we can talk about DAO Maker as a space with unique advantages in which we can stand out: 

1. It has a platform designed not only to help incubate projects, but also to curate them and serve as a basis for a correct implementation of the same. In fact, most of the projects launched in DAO Maker have grown significantly once they go public, much of this is due to that curation and incubation process. 
2. It offers a wide range of services designed to help maximize your chances of success. This can include helping modify your tokenomics to make it more sustainable, helping with community building, finding market makers and exchange partnerships, as well as a variety of other advisory services.

Offers a high level of accessibility and security in access to projects. DAO Maker even has the ability to carry out KYC procedures for projects that require it by regulations, which is a welcome plus for projects that have been focused on this type of reality from the beginning.
