Fundraising app and libraries for Aragon DAOs

Aragon Fundraising

Continuous Fundraising Apps Suite for Aragon Organizations

Overview

Aragon Fundraising is a suite of Aragon apps providing Aragon organizations continuous fundraising capabilities. It implements the following features.

Presale

This module allows organizations to set a presale target that must be reached during a given period of time for the continous fundraising campaign to actually start.

Automatic Batched Market Making

This module provides market liquidity to the fundraising campaign by automatically matching all the buy and sell orders according to a bonding curve tied to the Bancor formula. To mitigate front-running attacks and authorizing slow-trading this module also batches all the buy and sell orders received during a parametrable period of time to be matched given a common price.

Tap

This module enforce a tap-based control of the funds allowed to be withdrawn from the market-maker reserve pool to a discretionnary pool whose funds can be spent to sustain the organization. To provide more guarantees to the investors this tap module also allows this flow of funds to be floored [thus ensuring that the market maker reserve pool can't be emptied even slowly during a long period of time].
