Discourse & Proposal Process

We are pleased to launch Discourse platform which is a main communication channel for our DAO. Here Choise.com community can have a voice that will be heard.

Why Discourse

Discourse is one of the best open-source discussion platforms. Discourse is a modern take on the old school forum with its robust analytics, gamification and member trust levels. There is almost unlimited potential to customize the look and feel of our forum with Discourse. Conversations are organized based on categories, subcategories, and topics with the ability to tag conversations.

Categories

Choise.com DAO has different categories that cover all major topics. Categories help us to keep discussions about the ideas organized. Here we have the following categories:

  • Welcome. * Welcome! This category provides you with all the necessary information to get started. You can also find the most useful guidelines and frequently asked questions here.
  • Ecosystem & Partners: This category is for products related to Choise.com ecosystem. For any suggestions regarding new apps that Choise.com could connect to, or for discussion of the existing connections within the ecosystem.
  • Project Development Map: This category would be more general and could include any ideas related to the project roadmap, important milestones and future development trend.
  • Creativity & Incentives: Offering attractive incentives to the community is a part of most successful DAOs. This category should be used to discuss any ideas that could help the community to grow and give people the chance to earn CHO tokens or be rewarded in other ways. Don’t hesitate to offer any creative ideas that you have.
  • DeFi Products discussion: We have some key DeFi products in the Choise.com ecosystem, but it’s never late to discuss more new ones or to see some ways to improve existing service.
  • CeFi Products discussion: CeFi is a strong part of Choise.com, so let’s use this category to discuss it and improve it even more. Any suggestions, remarks and ideas are welcome.
  • CHO token: Purely related to CHO token. This category could have anything related to it, including tokenomics, CHO role in the ecosystem etc.
  • Uncategorized: Topics that don’t need a category, or don’t fit into any other existing category.
  • Proposals: This category is to present a structured proposal that was previously discussed in the related category and filled up with community ideas. Our moderators will approve each of these proposals, as they need to be constructive. Please follow proposal process and our template (appendix) to properly present your proposal.

If you are unsure of which category to post in, simply submit your post to Uncategorized and a moderator will help categorize it.
