1inch DAO migrates from Discourse to Common to drive Community Engagement & Governance

1inch is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that sources liquidity from different DEXs to find the most efficient swap routes for users. This helps traders get the best prices for their trades with minimal slippage.

"Since migrating to Commonwealth about a year ago, it has quickly become an indispensable tool, elevating the DAO’s decision making processes while remaining aligned with our core values."

Jordan Reindl,
1inch Governance Lead

They wanted a platform that made it possible to:

Alternate discussion forums did not solve this problem for 1inch. They were dissatisfied with their experience running their forums on Discourse and needed a new solution.

1inch operates as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). This means that the platform's development, governance, and key decisions are managed by the community of 1INCH token holders, rather than a centralized authority.

This absence threatened the platform's collaborative capabilities and long-term sustainability.

Solution

Common’s robust, integrated Governance Forum, purpose built for DAO governance.

The 1inch Network DAO governance process operates through a community-driven approach on Common’s Governance Forum. The platform addresses the challenges of decentralized decision-making and community engagement for the 1inch network.

Here's how Common facilitated the solution:

1. Consolidated Platform for Governance

2. Inclusive Participation

3. Accelerated growth & Project Evolution

4. Incorporated Web3 Innovations

Results

1inch has been one of Common’s most engaged communities, since their launch in 2023

500+ threads*
3600+ members*

Common addressed 1inch's governance challenges by providing a structured, inclusive, and efficient platform for community engagement and decision-making. This solution not only streamlined the governance process but also fostered a stronger, more cohesive community dedicated to the continuous improvement and success of the 1inch network.
