PROVEN METHODOLOGY
Our Migration Service Framework
A structured, four-phase approach to ensure your Sub-DAO migration is secure, compliant, and executed with zero downtime. We manage the entire lifecycle from initial assessment to post-migration support.
01
Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your existing DAO structure, governance rules, and tokenomics. Our team designs a target architecture on the new protocol (e.g., OpenZeppelin Governor, Compound Governor Bravo) with clear upgrade paths and security considerations.

Phase 2: Smart Contract Development
Our engineers write, test, and optimize the new migration contracts. This includes custom logic for state migration, vote snapshotting, and permission handling. All code follows OpenZeppelin standards and undergoes rigorous unit and integration testing.

Phase 3: Security & Dry-Run
The core migration contract suite undergoes a formal security audit, either by our in-house experts or a partnered firm like CertiK. We then execute multiple dry-run migrations on testnets (Sepolia, Holesky) to validate all state transitions and user flows.

Phase 4: Execution & Monitoring
We manage the mainnet deployment via a multi-sig timelock, execute the state migration, and provide real-time dashboards for monitoring treasury balances, voting power, and contract interactions post-launch. Includes 30 days of proactive support.

TANGIBLE RESULTS
Business Outcomes for Your DAO
Our Sub-DAO migration service delivers measurable improvements in governance efficiency, operational security, and technical scalability. We focus on outcomes that directly impact your treasury and community.
01
Reduced Governance Attack Surface
We migrate your governance logic to a modular, audited framework, isolating sub-DAO permissions and eliminating single points of failure. This minimizes the risk of catastrophic treasury loss from a single exploit.

Faster, Cheaper Proposal Execution
Optimized smart contract architecture reduces gas costs for proposal creation and voting by up to 40%. Delegate voting and batch execution patterns cut average proposal time-to-execution from days to hours.

Seamless Treasury & Permission Management
Implement granular, multi-sig controlled treasury modules for each Sub-DAO. We establish clear, on-chain permission hierarchies, ensuring funds are accessible only to authorized roles for approved purposes.

Phased Migration Delivery Timeline
Our structured, four-phase approach ensures a secure, transparent, and low-risk migration from your legacy DAO to a modern Sub-DAO architecture. Each phase includes specific deliverables and checkpoints.
| Phase | Key Activities | Deliverables | Timeline | Client Involvement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1: Discovery & Assessment | Architecture review, risk analysis, gas optimization planning | Technical specification document, migration roadmap | 1-2 weeks | Stakeholder interviews, requirement sign-off |
Phase 2: Smart Contract Development | Sub-DAO factory & module development, integration testing | Audit-ready smart contract suite, test suite coverage report | 3-4 weeks | Weekly technical syncs, feedback on module logic |
Phase 3: Security & Audit | Internal review, formal verification, third-party audit coordination | Audit report, remediation plan, final security assessment | 2-3 weeks | Review audit findings, approve remediation |
Phase 4: Deployment & Go-Live | Staging deployment, dry-run migration, mainnet deployment & verification | Live contracts on mainnet, deployment verification report, operational runbook | 1-2 weeks | Final approval for each deployment step, treasury multi-sig participation |

TECHNICAL EXPERTISE
Protocols & Tools We Master
Our migration engineers are certified experts in the core DAO frameworks and security tooling required for safe, efficient sub-DAO deployment. We don't just write code; we ensure your governance logic is secure, upgradeable, and interoperable from day one.
Technical & Process Questions
Sub-DAO Migration FAQs
Common questions from CTOs and founders about migrating governance to a Sub-DAO structure. Get specific answers on timelines, security, and our delivery process.
A standard Sub-DAO migration with a single governance token and core treasury functions takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. Complex migrations involving multi-token voting, cross-chain governance, or custom delegation logic can extend to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones after the initial technical audit.
