Overview
₡ABIN is our governance token, representing your voting power in community decisions. Anyone with 1000 ₡ can submit a governance proposal to the DAO. Proposals are voted on using quadratic multi-choice voting to increase equity among tokenholders. Tokenholders govern the DAO’s public treasury to grow its network of neighborhoods.
