ORGANIZATIONAL DECLARATION OF THE AXIE INFINITY DIGITAL NATION
ALSO KNOWN AS THE AXIE INFINITY DECENTRALIZED AUTONOMOUS ORGANIZATION
PREAMBLE –
Axie Infinity is a digital universe in which digital assets enable users to engage therein, and, by design, the creators of Axie Infinity envisioned and created a Community Treasury for furtherance of this digital universe. By this Organizational Declaration, the Axie Infinity Digital Nation (the Axie Infinity Decentralized Autonomous Organization or “Axie DAO”) hereby organizes and establishes itself for the non-exclusive purposes of its general welfare, structural framework, common goals, and self-preservation.
ARTICLE I – ESTABLISHMENT
Section 1. Axie Infinity Shards (AXS). The fundamental purpose of AXS is to act as a representation of fractional ownership of the Axie DAO.
Section 2. Initial AXS Issuance. Implementing blockchain technology, from November 4 2020 to April 4 2026, the sum total of 270,000,000 AXS tokens shall be issued and distributed in accordance with the published tokenomics.
Section 3. Strategic Issuance. Prior to April 4, 2026 portions of the AXS issuance shall be subject to strategic distribution, particularly the “Play and Earn” and “Ecosystem Fund” allocations. Also, all funds in the Community Treasury shall be subject to strategic distribution. All funds that are subject to strategic distribution require Governance.
Section 4. Perpetual Viability. Funds inflowing to the Axie DAO are necessary for its continued existence and function. Governance is required to ensure sufficient inflow to the Axie DAO.
Section 5. Axie DAO Purpose. The purpose of the Axie DAO is the furtherance of Axie Infinity. The furtherance of Axie Infinity fundamentally requires, without limitation, all property, actions, technology, items and any and all other things necessary to make Axie Infinity exist (the “Axie Metaverse”) as well as engaging developers to innovate, engineer, design, create and implement the products, applications, assets and any and all things for the Axie Metaverse (the “Axie Developers”). All of these tasks require Governance.
Section 6. Axie Digital Assets. Fundamental to Axie Infinity’s persisting existence are the digital assets of Axie Infinity, which include Axies, Lands, Items, Accessories, Runes and Charms and any and all digital properties that are specific to Axie Infinity (“Axie Assets”).
Section 7. Digital Tokens. Tokens are utilized by Axie Infinity to facilitate interactions within its digital economy, for example SLP.
ARTICLE II – CITIZENSHIP
Section 1. Qualification. A Citizen of Axie Infinity is any person who owns: (a) (i) at least one full AXS, or (ii) at least one Axie, and (b) remains in good standing.
Section 2. Rights. A Citizen of Axie Infinity is qualified to the minimum level of participation in the Axie DAO and is considered a member of the Axie Infinity Community. Citizenship is required to participate in any form of Governance.
Section 3. Responsibilities. A Citizen of Axie Infinity is required to observe all terms and conditions of the Axie Metaverse as well as the “Code of Conduct” enacted by the Axie DAO. Failure to comply will result in poor standing and revocation of any rights of a Citizen. The determination of standing requires Governance.
Section 4. Contributors. An Axie Infinity Contributor is a Citizen of Axie Infinity who has qualified for and presently holds the status of a “Contributor” through the Axie Infinity Contributors Program.
ARTICLE III – VOTING
Section 1. Base Voting Unit. The base voting unit for the Axie DAO for any Voting Matter shall be a single, whole AXS. AXS holdings will be determined by use of a Blockchain Snapshot and any AXS must be staked at the time of the Blockchain Snapshot to be used for voting.
Section 2. Citizenship Required. Only Citizens of Axie Infinity may vote on a Voting Matter.
Section 3. Voting Power. When voting on a Voting Matter, the vote of a Citizen shall be weighted in accordance with the Voting System. The Voting System is crucial to the Axie DAO, it is therefore set forth herein, however, the evolving nature of Axie Infinity requires that the Voting System be regularly updated through Governance. Voting within the Axie DAO is on the basis of cumulative weighted voting.
Section 4. Voting System. Voting on Voting Matters shall be held as required by Governance. The method for tallying the votes and determining the results shall be through computing a Citizen’s base voting units and adding additional voting weight that is rewarded for ownership of certain assets and activities deserving merit (historically referred to as “Axie Score”), initially based upon the modifiers as follows:
Category Voting Modifier (“Axie Score”)
Normal Axies Additional 10% weight for every 10,000 Axies
Summer Axies Additional 10% weight for every 1,000 Summer parts
Japanese Axies Additional 10% weight for every 300 Japanese parts
Holiday Axies Additional 10% weight for every 50 Holiday parts
Origin Axies Additional 10% weight for every Origin Axie
Mystic Axies Additional 10% weight plus 10% for every Mystic part
Agamogenesis Axies Additional 150% weight for every Agamogenesis Axie
Savannah Land Additional 10% weight for every 20 Savannah Lands
Forest Land Additional 10% weight for every 6 Forest Lands
Arctic Land Additional 10% weight for every 2 Arctic Lands
Mystic Land Additional 10% weight for every Mystic Land
Genesis Land Additional 100% weight for each Genesis Land
Contributor (Tier I) Additional 10% weight
Contributor (Tier II) Additional 20% weight
Contributor (Tier III) Additional 30% weight
Contributor (Tier IV) Additional 40% weight
After applying these modifiers to augment a Citizen’s total base voting units, the result shall be the Citizen’s total vote on any Voting Matter.
