[ANN] $ROOT5 The MEME Credit Union DAO

🌳 $ROOT5 DAO 🌳

"From the Ashes of Abandonment, A Community Rises"

📖 THE STORY: TWICE DENIED, NEVER DEFEATED

Picture this: A dev farms the community and dumps straight into the chart. Everyone gets wrecked. The community rallies for a CTO (community takeover). Denied. They try again. Denied AGAIN.

Can't take control of the original listing. Most communities would rage-quit and move on.

Not us, man. ✌️

A band of damn dirty hippies looked at each other and said, "Screw it. We'll build our own."

And so ROOT5 DAO was born—not as a takeover, but as a re-start. No single dev calling shots. Just a team of individuals making decisions by consensus, building something the community actually controls. We're not asking permission anymore. We're building a Democratized Meme Credit Union where the people have the power.

🌱 WHAT IS ROOT5 DAO? (BUILDING NOW)

ROOT5 DAO is building the world's first Democratized Meme Credit Union. Think of it as a collective investment fund where you decide which memes get turned into tokens.

Here's what we're building:

🗳️ Lock $ROOT5 tokens to participate in governance (proposed)
🔥 Burn $ROOT5 to vote on meme proposals—deflationary by design (proposed)
🚀 Winning memes get launched as tokens
💰 DAO captures the floor from initial buys + creator fees returned to the system
🔄 Revenue funds distributions, governance programs, and community initiatives

Translation? Vote on which memes deserve to be tokens, DAO earns from successful launches, value flows back to the community. It's like a credit union, but for meme culture.

📊 TOKENOMICS (FULL TRANSPARENCY)

Ticker: $ROOT5
Current Supply: 997,573,179.940796 (already deflationary!)
Blockchain: Solana
Launch: Fair launch via Pump.fun

📈 TRADING:
Pump.fun: Trade $ROOT5
Dexscreener: Live Chart

🔐 Contract Address:

Code:

AZEqLUaeDb3u6FnGVcLakprwgmk6bD3GPGzNXBZ1pump

🏦 Treasury (Locked):

Code:

7qcxTk4kGdiGUxD7T59tQygJToe4rC4F7GyTTyYYyPMK

Current Allocation:

59% in Liquidity Pool → Trading liquidity on Pump.fun
22% Team Holdings → Purchased at launch with pooled funds (transparent from day 1)
10% Treasury → 100M $ROOT5 locked, pending PDA wallet development
4.2% Development → 42M held by dev team (locking for team holdings)
8% Community Airdrop → 80M sent to top 450 real wallets from original project (snapshot: Oct 16, 23:00 UTC)

Current Stats:
- 322 Holders (growing organically)
- 59% Liquidity Locked
- Real community, real holders, real commitment

Anti-Whale Protection: Progressive vote decay in governance (when launched)—the more you burn, the less efficient your votes become. Keeps power distributed. ✊

About the Airdrop: We didn't forget the people who got farmed by the original dev. 80M tokens went to compensate the top 450 real wallet holders who held through the dump. We take care of our own.

🔥 WHY ROOT5 DAO IS DIFFERENT (AND WHY YOU'RE EARLY)

✅ BORN FROM ADVERSITY → Farmed by a dev, denied CTO twice. We built our own instead.
✅ TEAM CONSENSUS MODEL → No single dev. Decisions made by team consensus with community involvement.
✅ TRANSPARENT ALLOCATION → Team bought in at launch. Airdropped 80M to original victims. Full disclosure.
✅ DEFLATIONARY → Already burning (997M supply from 1B). Governance voting burns more.
✅ REVENUE-GENERATING MODEL → DAO captures floor + creator fees from launched tokens (proposed)
✅ BUILDING REAL UTILITY → Not just a token. Building an entire DAO infrastructure for meme curation.
✅ PRE-BONDING PHASE → Ground floor. Only 322 holders. Organic growth only.
✅ COMPENSATING VICTIMS → We airdropped to people hit by the original dump. We don't forget.

This isn't some copycat derivative. This is what happens when a community gets denied, gets angry, and builds their own damn DAO. We're the underdog with receipts, man.

🎯 THE VISION: FROM MEMES TO REAL UTILITY

Phase 1: Pure Community Curation (we're here!)
Launch community-voted memes on Pump.fun, capture fees, grow the treasury.

Phase 2: Reputation-Weighted Voting
Track record matters. Good curators earn voting multipliers.

Phase 3: Oracle Integration
Objective virality metrics (Twitter, Google Trends, etc.) combined with community override.

End Goal: A self-sustaining DAO that funds real-world projects, rewards holders, and democratizes meme token creation. Think of it as Shark Tank meets meme culture meets hippie commune. 🌻

⚠️ REAL TALK (FULL TRANSPARENCY)

We're not here to shill you pipe dreams. This is crypto. Things can go sideways. But here's what we've got:

✅ Transparent tokenomics (team bought 22% at launch—we put our money where our mouth is)
✅ Compensated victims (80M airdrop to top 450 holders from original rugpull)
✅ Treasury locked (100M secured, pending PDA development)
✅ Team consensus model (no single point of failure)
✅ Building real DAO infrastructure (not just vibes)
✅ Already deflationary (997M from 1B start)

We're pre-bonding right now. Ground floor. Only 322 holders. Organic growth only. No paid shillers, no bot farms, just real people building something that should've existed already.
