🔑 RedKey DAO

Decentralized Investment & Lending Protocol Governed by Community Consensus

RedKey DAO is a next-generation decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) built as a mini app on the Avalanche C-Chain. It empowers communities to collectively manage a treasury, vote on investment proposals, and participate in peer-to-peer lending — all through a sleek, terminal-inspired dark UI.

Built for the Avalanche ecosystem. Designed for transparency. Governed by its members.

✨ Features

🏠 Landing Page

A stunning, animated landing page introducing the DAO's vision and core value propositions with smooth Framer Motion animations and a cyberpunk-inspired aesthetic.

📊 Dashboard

A command-center style dashboard providing real-time overview of:

• Treasury balance & metrics
• Active proposals and loan activity
• Live audit trail log with color-coded action types
• AVAX price tracking with live market data
• Latest Avalanche ecosystem news feed

🏦 Treasury & Onchain Execution

Full transparency into DAO finances with live Avalanche C-Chain integration:

• 🚀 LIVE SHOWCASE: Onchain Contributions — Connect your wallet and send actual USDC, USDT, or AVAX directly to the RedKey DAO treasury smart contract on the Avalanche network.
• 🚀 LIVE SHOWCASE: Onchain Transaction Log — Real-time verification of on-chain treasury movements fetched directly from the blockchain via Alchemy API.
• Onchain Treasury Dashboard (/dao/treasury/onchain) — A dedicated command center displaying individual AVAX, USDC, and USDT balances with live USD equivalents (AVAX price via CoinGecko).
• Comprehensive fund overview: Total balance, allocated funds, and available funds.
• Contribution tracking per member and reserve ratio monitoring.

📜 Proposals

Community-driven investment governance:

• Create and submit investment proposals with risk assessment
• Configurable voting parameters (quorum, approval threshold, voting period)
• Real-time voting progress with weighted voting power
• Proposal lifecycle tracking (Draft → Submitted → Voting → Passed/Failed → Executing → Completed)
• Comment and discussion threads per proposal

💼 Portfolio

Post-funding transparency and performance tracking:

• Track deployed capital and actual performance of funded projects
• Detailed metrics including ROI, stage, and ecosystem impact
• Verifiable links to project smart contracts and social spaces

💰 Loans (P2P Lending)

A peer-to-peer liquidity market:

• Request loans with flexible tenors (3, 6, or 9 months)
• Flat interest rates tied to tenor (3% / 6% / 9%)
• 100% collateral requirement for borrower protection
• Community-funded lending — any member can fund a portion of a loan
• Full loan lifecycle management with credit tier system (Gold / Silver / Bronze / New)

📡 Signal

Smart money tracking on the Avalanche network:

• Track whale and smart money wallet addresses
• View the latest 100 transactions per address via Alchemy API
• Analyze on-chain activity patterns

👥 Identity & Reputation System

Comprehensive member directory and progression system:

• Public Profiles (/dao/profile/[address]) — Searchable public member profiles displaying identity metrics, customizable bio, social links, and a visual Reputation Matrix.
• Private Profiles (/dao/profile) — Personal command center with inline editing allowing members to manage their DAO identity.
• Partner Reputation Integration — Members can claim reputation badges based on their activity in other Avalanche ecosystem dApps (e.g., Blackhole protocol). Claimed badges directly calculate into an aggregated "Partner Reputation" score displayed on the profile matrix.
• Role-based access (Super Admin, Admin, Member, Observer).
• Voting power calculation (60% stake weight + 40% reputation weight).
• Credit tier tracking for P2P lending eligibility.

💬 Discussion

Community forum for open dialogue:

• Create discussion topics
• Threaded replies
• Member activity tracking
