🥭 MangoDAO: Pioneering DAOs on Solana

Bear market is a great opportunity to learn and build!

This week’s article is exploring the governance structure of the first fully on-chain Solana margin trading, borrow & lending markets, and perpetual futures protocol — MangoDAO.

Mango plays an important role in the Solana DAO ecosystem, as it supports the creation of DAO governance tools such as realms.today— a piece of decentralized governance on Solana.

Mango DAO governance is fully decentralized, as all the decisions are made collectively: Discussing on Discord → Discussing on Governance Forum → Realms On-Chain Voting.

To learn more about the MangoDAO governance process, give our deep dive a read!

🚧 Product updates

Squads ship non-stop!

Here are the product updates that are already live on mainnet:

  • Address book is now available 📥

You can save your frequent contacts and initiate transactions to contributors, counter-parties, or just friends with ease straight from the Vault.

  • Squad deployment deposit 💰

Each Squad is now deployed with a small amount of SOL (0.001) deposited, to allow transfers from Phantom directly to the Vault upon deployment.

  • Minor updates and bug fixes 🔧
  1. Added a link to the docs in the drop-down menu in the right corner of the screen;
  2. Changed the description inside the “Receive” button to better reflect its functionality;
  3. Fixed the bug when clicking on the “MAX” button while sending/depositing assets sometimes displayed no values inside the field;
  4. Fixed the bug which sometimes may have prevented Glow wallets users from casting transactions;
  5. Fixed the bug when sometimes assets in the deposit dialog box were changing the order;
  6. Fixed minor inconsistencies in the transaction links to Solscan;
