Decentralized Conviction Voting using Ceramic

Inspired by: https://blog.ceramic.network/trust-minimized-off-chain-conviction-voting

Snapshot service

Node.js app deployed to Vercel with Github Actions to trigger function with cron job every x hours.

• Fetch all token holders using TheGraph
• Convert each holder address to DID
• Get convictions for DID with IDX
• Get proposals from convictions
• Calculate total conviction per proposal
• Calculate required convition per proposal
• Update state doc

• npm run bootstrap generates schemas and definitions used
• npm run schema:ts converts json-schema to Typescript types
• Server route GET /config returns snapshot did, definitions and schemas
• Server route POST /snapshot triggers an update for the ConvictionState (triggered from Github Actions cron job)
• Server route POST /proposal add a user-created proposal to the convcition state (so we don't have to wait for update trigger)

Voting app

React app UI to create, list and vote for proposals.

• Call snapshot service for config (service did, definitions and schemas)
• Get conviction state for did and list proposals
• Sign in with Ethereum wallet (account address is used to map token balances)
• Create proposal
• Vote for proposals by allocation a fraction of tokens
