Getting Started

Mostly. Badge minting is free (network transaction fee only). Off-chain voting in Telegram is free; casting an on-chain CV2 vote is not enabled yet. Posting a task is free and needs no signature — funding it costs the reward plus 5% insurance (the insurance comes back when you approve), and claiming one locks a 10 XRD bond. See 'What are the fees?' below.

An on-chain NFT on the Radix ledger. It records your username and tier at mint — your identity in the guild for voting and tasks. The NFT also carries an XP field, but the Guild does not currently write to it: the XP and tier you see in the app are tracked off-chain, and the on-chain value stays at its minted state. The NFT itself is technically transferable, and because reputation lives off-chain the Guild zeroes XP on any transferred badge — today that is Host-enforced policy, not a blueprint rule. Moving that enforcement on-chain is on the charter list.

Vote (+10 XP), create a proposal or poll (+25 XP), run a temperature check (+10 XP), post a task in Telegram (+10 XP), plus dice-roll bonuses (up to +100 for a jackpot) — those all run through the Telegram bot. Completing a task pays XP by reward tier: 10, 25, 50, or 100. XP accrues in the guild's records, and that is the authoritative number — it is what the dashboard and your tier are based on. Your badge NFT also carries a tier/XP snapshot on-chain, but nothing writes it on a schedule today, so it can lag the real figure by a long way. If the two disagree, the guild's records are right. Work is the only source — XP cannot be bought.

47 governance decisions that build the DAO from the ground up. Phase 1 (6 foundation params) → Phase 2 (20 configuration params) → Phase 3 (6 operations) — 32 charter parameters in all. Plus 10 structural decisions and 5 P3 service transitions. Each phase unlocks when the previous completes. Browse and vote on them with /charter and /charter guide in Telegram; the dashboard's Decisions page shows on-chain CV2 temperature checks only.

Our own deployment of the Radix Foundation's consultation_v2 blueprint. The Foundation wrote the blueprint but never deployed it; bigdev forked it and deployed this component in April 2026 — the Foundation does not run it and does not endorse it. CV2 records formal, non-binding temperature checks on the Radix ledger, weighted by XRD holdings. It is PARKED as of 2026-07-31 — we are not developing it further until the Guild DAO needs it. Reads stay live in the dashboard and the component stays on mainnet; casting a vote from here is off, and no vote has ever been cast through it. Parked, not retired. Binding votes remain a later roadmap stage (Stage 5).

bigdev built and maintains it. The source is closed for now while we test and clarify the platform; it's planned to open for public review before launch, once the license is finalised — until then, every component is verifiable on-chain. Admin controls transfer to the elected RAC (Radix Advisory Council) when Charter Step 3 completes. See Costs & Transparency section below.

Anyone with a connected wallet can post a task from the dashboard; a badge is required only for /bounty create in Telegram. Posting is free and does nothing on-chain — the task must be funded in a second, signed transaction (reward + 5% insurance) before anyone can claim it. Workers then claim against a 10 XRD bond, submit their work, and the poster's approval assigns the reward to the worker inside the escrow — the worker collects it with their own signed withdrawal. Live today with XRD; multi-token (xUSDC/xUSDT) is designed but not yet registered on-chain.

Zero today. The deployed escrow charges no platform fee — workers receive 100% of the reward, and unused insurance is refunded to the poster. Verify it on-ledger: the component config has no platform-fee parameter. Workers pay no percentage of the reward, ever. The one worker-side cost is the claim bond: exactly 10 XRD locked when you claim and returned in full when you submit — an expired claim forfeits it, with a small bounty to whoever calls the public expire and the remainder in a vault only the operator can drain. The decided plan before anything changes: a poster-side royalty charged when a task is funded — a flat XRD amount per funded post, not a percentage of the reward — starting at 0, movable only by the operator's royalty-admin badge, and bounded only by the network's per-call royalty maximum (about 166 XRD). Worker-side methods are locked free on-chain. There is no percentage fee, and the contract enforces no percentage bound. Any change goes through a published RFC first.

Yes. Connect your wallet, open Tasks, and click Create Task. You pick a deliverable type and fill in title, description, reward, deadline, and acceptance criteria. Posting is free and costs no signature — and the task is not claimable until you fund it in a second, signed transaction (reward + 5% insurance). You can also create tasks via /bounty create in Telegram.

Not finalized — badge-tier voting weight is an open charter parameter, and older docs disagree with each other. It will be settled by an open charter vote; until then, temperature checks count badges equally. Already decided: when binding votes arrive (roadmap Stage 5), eligibility will require earned XP above a published floor — not mere badge possession. Earn XP through voting, proposing, completing tasks, and playing the dice game.

Today, bigdev self-funds — the platform fee is 0% and fee revenue to date is $0. The plan: a poster-side settlement fee (see 'What are the fees?'), on-chain component royalties, and SaaS hosting fees. There is no token, and none is planned. Revenue from usage funds more development, which produces more royalty-earning code. See Costs & Transparency section below.

Teams that organize the guild's work: Guild, DAO, Radix Infra, Business Development, Marketing. Join one with /group join <name> in Telegram — the dashboard lists groups but joining is Telegram-only for now. Each group has a lead and members. Charters with sunset dates, budgets, and biweekly reporting are designed and the bot has the commands (/wg report, /wg sunset, /wg overdue), but no live group has a charter, sunset date, or budget yet, and the automated report/sunset alerting is paused.

Posting a task and funding it are two separate steps. Posting is free and needs no signature — it just creates the listing, and the task is not claimable. Funding is a second, signed transaction: click Fund on the task and your Radix Wallet shows a manifest that locks the reward plus 5% insurance into the escrow component's vault. No admin wallet can withdraw the reward or the insurance (the one exception is forfeited claim bonds — see 'What are the fees?'). When the poster approves, the contract assigns the reward to the worker, who collects it with their own signed withdrawal; there is no automatic release yet. If you funded from Telegram, verify with /bounty fund <id> <tx_hash>.

Both, but they do different things. The dashboard is for wallet-signed actions: minting a badge, posting and funding tasks, claiming, submitting, approving, and your profile with trust record. Telegram is where governance lives: proposals, polls, temperature checks, voting, and joining working groups. Reading works on both. See the Dashboard vs Telegram guide above.

Two different things share the name. In Telegram, /trust shows a participation score computed from the bot's own records — account age, votes cast, proposals created, tasks completed, groups joined, feedback filed — with tiers Bronze (0+), Silver (50+), Gold (200+). On the dashboard, a separate record derived from the escrow ledger decides who can claim: New, Established (5 paid tasks, no disputes), or Top Rated (15 paid, 95% on-time) — that is the one a poster can set as a claim gate when posting. Both are earned by participating; a badge is the minimum to take part.

When creating a task, add --approval pr_merged --repo owner/repo. Workers submit a GitHub PR link. Verification is on-demand today — the verifier (or an agent) clicks verify to confirm the PR is merged; automated 5-minute polling is planned but not yet live. The escrow release is then queued for the verifier.

Yes. On any unfunded task page, click the 'Fund' button. Your Radix Wallet opens with the TX manifest pre-built. One click to deposit XRD into the on-chain escrow vault. The task reconciles with the chain when you next act on it, or click 'Resync from chain' on the task page to confirm your deposit immediately.
