Just in: If your governance power falls below 70%, you will not be eligible for Merit, Grape, or Guba rewards. For a breakdown of what Merit, Grape/GRIP, and Guba rewards are, check the first tweet in the thread.

๐Ÿ‡Grape rewards system for active contributors GUBA - stable pool allocated to active contributors in the DAO. Periodically distributed based on set metrics for activities and contributions. GRIP - Grape token which serve as "governance power" granted to contributors captured in the GUBA pool. Strengthens alignment with the native token economy of the DAO. MERITS - Quarterly recognition for contributors who consistently go above and beyond in advancing the DAO. BOUNTY - Funding pools designed to incentivize completion of well-defined tasks of significant benefits to the DAO. Flexible and adaptable, allowing the dao to target urgent or high-priority initiatives. join grape DAO calls for more information on the pool allocation and how the system works

Grape DAO Call Recap - Sunday 1st November 2026 We covered Hyperliquid's partnership with ICE, the Binance hacks and the CZ and Elon Musk banter on X. On governance, we talked about how Grape stopped spam proposals, Kirk's new UI update that exposes them instantly and calls for more council tokens and proper criteria for council members. Raffles wrapped up the call. Grape DAO call continues today, catch you soon!

4 hacks in one day and crypto just got a security reality check Binance hot wallets drained via EIP-7702 delegation. $2.8B left the Ethereum hot wallet in a single sweep and trackers put the total near $6.3B across chains Polymarket front end, $2.7M Bybit, $1B per reports circulating on social media Ledger supply chain in SG also reported compromised Tether and Circle froze $2.4B+ but over $1B in ETH is already out of reach. BTC slides, BNB bleeds, liquidity evaporates Binance says user funds are safe and CZ expects everyone to be covered in full When the biggest CEX loses control of its hot wallets, every risk premium in crypto gets repriced overnight. Classic fear cascade Stay safu. Remember, not your keys, not your crypto

Grape DAO Call Recap - Sunday 25th October 2026 We opened with market discussion and what to look out for going into the week, alongside war updates. SOL dumped below $100 for the first time in 37 days and SUI dropped below $1, with ZEC news also coming up in the mix. AI news took some airtime too, covering vulnerabilities and attack vectors, with calls for the community to stay safe and vigilant. The MERIT review second pass was handled today, good progress on that front. Grape DAO call continues today, catch you soon!

One of the quieter problems in DAOs is access that's too easy to pass - Sybil accounts, gaming the system for more rewards/grants Most gates ask one question: "Does this wallet hold the token?" Grape Access changes the standard, shifting access control from what you hold to what youโ€™ve actually done. How It Works: Account Verification Checks Confirms real, verified account status on-chain using cryptographic hashes. Your identity stays private without exposing raw IDs or addresses. Wallet On-Chain Identity: Ensures a legitimate wallet is directly linked to the verified profile, running all checks transparently. Reputation Score: Earned through seasonal contributions, NOT bought. And with time-locks to ensure reputation only counts after itโ€™s been held over time. Integration with Governance: Proposal creators must pass full verification and meet reputation thresholds, members need verified wallets and active reputation scores to participate, Requires complete verification check and reputation score for proposal creators, and a higher bar for treasury related actions. Show up. Contribute. Then propose. access.governance.so/

Grape tools for DAO builders: OG Reputation Spaces: Track who actually shows up, award contributors on-chain, and run seasons to reward participation however your DAO sees fit. Grape Verification: Membership and access checks that are reputation-aware, not just token-weighted. Grape Access: Token and credential gating for your community. Governance by Grape: Proposals, voting, treasury management. The direct Realms equivalent, maintained by the community. Grape Wallet (beta): Multi-chain wallet with governance and reputation built in from day one. Grape governance discord bot: Get notified on all proposals inside of your discord as another measure for security If you are looking to set up governance in your community come find us on Discord. We will walk through it together. ๐Ÿ‡

Grape DAO Call Recap - Sunday 18th October 2026 We opened with the current state of the market, analyzing the current downturn across the board ( stocks and crypto). Backpack was a standout in the sea of red, up 10% on the day. We touched on DLMM positions on @MeteoraAG before moving into war updates (USA vs IRAN), including the France unrest and protests which are getting increasingly serious talking points includes the burning of a church over 143 years old was one of the talking points. The second pass for the MERIT review for the quarter which kicked off on Tuesday was paused today as the the focus was the completion of GRIP and GUBA performance rewards for the previous month. We also covered the Grape Verification update aimed at clamping down on Sybil accounts. Then we ended with raffles Grape DAO call continues today, catch you soon!

Governance.so recently flagged a malicious proposal for Grape DAO and tagged it immediately with a HIGH risk rating, right on the proposal page. What it caught: ๐Ÿ”ดAuthor has no active Grape Verification ๐Ÿ”ดAuthor has zero DAO reputation this season ๐Ÿ”ดA token holder with no prior voting history in the DAO ๐ŸŸกTreasury assets leaving DAO-controlled accounts (2 transfers, 2 assets, 1 destination) ๐ŸŸกDestination wallet unverified, with zero DAO reputation ๐ŸŸกNo proposal description at all Every red flag was surfaced automatically, so members didn't have to dig through raw instructions to spot it. This is what DAO governance should look like. ๐Ÿ‡ If you're DAO looking for DAO tooling like this, check out governance.so/

We touched on the state of the market and some war updates before rounding up with raffles. Grape DAO call continues today, catch you soon!

5/5 Market mood (as scanned from the chat): 52% bullish, 28% bearish, 20% coping. The Clarity Act failing on 15 Sep cooled sentiment, then $SOL and $SUI caught bids late in the month. The DAO also reviewed new token selections for raffles including $MET, $RAY, $PUMP, solana:JUPyiwrYJFskUPiHa7hkeR8VUtAeFoSYbKedZNsDvCN and $SOL DAO calls: Tuesday 6PM UTC, Sunday 3PM UTC Join us: discord.gg/grapedao
