Our vision
Kokonut Network is born from the vision of lowering the barrier to agriculture development, rural project funding, and democratizing investing in real-world projects. We will leverage blockchain technology to create several plantations throughout the country, bringing benefits to the global crypto communities and every individual within the network. Coconut farming is a proven business that has a lot of upsides.
What makes us different?
There are a lot of DAOs out there that are just good ideas, splendid copywriting, and marketing, the vast majority without a real business backing their idea. Many projects get rug-pulled or end up abandoned by their users because they don’t deliver a good product.
We at Kokonut Network have a different way of doing things. Instead of founding our proposal or business plan in exploiting our users, trying to hook them to buy some non-backed token. We have created a time-proof system backed by coconut plants on our land, DAO for governance, funds allocation & rewards sharing.
Kokonut Network Manifesto
Kokonut Network is a platform built by the people, for the people. At its core, Kokonut DAO looks to empower anyone adding value to the Kokonut Network ecosystem, regardless of their social status or previous accolades.
The core ethos of Kokonut Network is to create a truly self-sustainable protocol with integrity at heart. The community should always be prioritized over the capital.
The drive to create a truly open ecosystem will take form with time. At inception, Kokonut Network will establish the Kokonut DAO - the governing entity responsible for allocating funding for Kokonut Network development and distributing rewards to contributors.
The Kokonut DAO is built on the following principles:
- Freedom of Choice - Enter and exit as you please.
- Freedom of Work - Collaboration is encouraged and necessary.
- Freedom of Power - No one person owns the Kokonut DAO. Those with the most “influence” are those who are adding the most value.
- Freedom of Access - Anyone adding value should receive DAO shares.
- Freedom of Pay - Anyone holding DAO shares may submit a funding proposal.
- Freedom of Opinion - Not all opinions will be unanimous. We encourage people to speak up and challenge any initiative or proposal which goes against the core ethos of Kokonut Network.
Rage Quitting a.k.a Leaving Kokonut DAO
Any DAO member can rage-quit to obtain a proportional percentage of the Kokonut DAO treasury assets.
Fair
If unfavorable circumstances require that a member sell their shares or loot, they can submit a proposal to sell them to another Kokonut DAO Member or another address approved by Kokonut DAO members. This would require two proposals: one to rage-quit current shares and/or loot, one to mint new shares, and/or for a current member. This would need two Kokonut DAO votes to support.
Permissionless
Contributors can enforce governance through Rage-quit to remove their donations at any time if they are not comfortable with the direction of Kokonut DAO.
Safe
Members should Rage-quit if the core team is not conducting the business program defined in funding proposals.
Kokonut DAO Workflow
This layer is composed of the Kokonut DAO members. Their tasks are to oversight and vote on proposals for the benefit of Kokonut Network; Anyone with at least 1 Kokonut DAO share can participate in the DAO governance.
This layer is where the DAO lives securely, as well as the treasury, list of shareholders, funding & membership proposals voting. All of the information critical for the transparency and lastingness of the project is publicly available in the Gnosis Chain.
After approval by Kokonut DAO members, this layer functions as the body where execution of budget & work plan takes place. Composed by the Core Team, Kokonut DAO Contributors & Global Enterprise Partners.
This is where the magic happens! In this layer, we bring to life our mission of building, producing, and globally distributing our Coconuts & Derivatives products. Kokonut V1 is our first plantation composed of 60,000 coconut plants within 620 acres of land with a yearly production of 18 million coconuts.
Core Members
Several business specialists are going to be responsible for the development of Kokonut Network. They have 35+ years of combined experience in the visual graphics, IT, private, and public agriculture sectors.
