Treasury Module

The Treasury module provides a "pot" of funds that can be managed by stakeholders in the system and a structure for making spending proposals from this pot.

Overview

The Treasury Module itself provides the pot to store funds, and a means for stakeholders to propose, approve, and deny expenditures. The chain will need to provide a method (e.g.inflation, fees) for collecting funds.

By way of example, the Council could vote to fund the Treasury with a portion of the block reward and use the funds to pay developers.

Terminology

  • Proposal: A suggestion to allocate funds from the pot to a beneficiary.
  • Beneficiary: An account who will receive the funds from a proposal if the proposal is approved.
  • Deposit: Funds that a proposer must lock when making a proposal. The deposit will be returned or slashed if the proposal is approved or rejected respectively.
  • Pot: Unspent funds accumulated by the treasury module.

Interface
