1. How ONTON Works for Non-Crypto Users vs. Web3 Participants
ONTON is built on a strict Web2-First by Default, Web3 Opt-In Under the Hood principle:
- For Mainstream Organizers & Attendees (Zero Crypto Required): Any organizer or guest can sign in via Telegram, Google, or Email OTP, host free events at 0% platform fee, sell tickets via Telegram Stars (Apple Pay / Google Pay), check in guests with 20-second rotating QR passes, and unlock the 2.5% Pro Organizer Fee Tier purely by earning 500 ONTON Points through hosting and referrals โ without ever touching a crypto wallet, gas fees, or
$ONIT. - For Web3 Holders, Stakers & Genesis ONION NFT Backers: Inside the Mini-App (My โ ONIT Vault & Staking at
/my/vault) and on this portal (onton.live/dao), token holders and Genesis NFT owners can rescue unlocked vesting allocations, stake in the JVault v2 pool with up to 2.0x NFT yield multipliers, unlock the 2.5% Pro Organizer fee tier immediately by holding/staking โฅ10,000$ONIT, and govern the 25% DAO Revenue Warchest.
2. The Protective Boundary: ONTON Platform Ownership vs. ONTON DAO
To ensure rapid software execution, enterprise reliability, and regulatory clarity, ONTON enforces an explicit separation between the software company and the community governance layer:
100% Software Sovereignty & 75% Net Revenue
ONTON retains 100% ownership of the core intellectual property, codebase, servers, domains (onton.live), and bots (@theontonbot), along with 75% of net platform fee revenue to fund engineering, infrastructure, security, and company growth. $ONIT is an ecosystem utility and governance token, not corporate equity.
25% Revenue Warchest & 200M DAO Reserve
ONTON DAO governs the 25% Net Revenue Buyback & Staking Yield Warchest (funded from 3% crypto ticketing fees, 5% Telegram Stars fees, and 0.1 TON SBT upgrades), the 200,000,000 $ONIT Community DAO Reserve (upon the $20M FDV milestone), and community co-host event grants.
3. Verified On-Chain Supply & 625.51M Proof-of-Lock
On August 30, 2025 (Transaction 7f3dca0c...), mint admin rights on the $ONIT Jetton Master (EQBIMlTIsWgwMZA1IBqsU4CDEibDCke0LdEIXP0ukjaq4U9L) were permanently burned to 0:000...000, fixing total supply forever at 1,000,000,000 $ONIT.
All 6 Macro Plans (625,510,543 $ONIT) remain 100% locked on-chain behind the $20M FDV milestone. Zero Founding Team, Advisor, or Private Sale tokens have been unlocked:

4. ONTON DAO Constitution (v1.0 Sept 2025 โ v2.1 Oct 2026 Ratification)
Originally drafted with the community in September 2025 as the ONIONverse DAO Constitution v1.0 and ratified in October 2026 as the ONTON DAO Constitution v2.1, our governance structure unites $ONIT stakers, Genesis ONION NFT holders, and verified event organizers across three chambers:
Section 1 โ The Three Governance Chambers
- Chamber 1: Citizen Assembly (โฅ1,000 $ONIT held/staked, or 1+ Genesis ONION NFT, or 5+ Attendance SBTs) โ Votes on community event bounties, regional meetup sponsorships, and temperature-check polls.
- Chamber 2: Organizer & Partner Council (โฅ10,000 $ONIT held/staked, or โฅ500 ONTON Points, or Founding Organizer / Ecosystem Grant Partner) โ Automatically unlocks the 2.5% Pro Organizer Fee Tier (50% fee discount) in checkout and governs organizer roadmap priorities and co-host event grants.
- Chamber 3: The Genesis ONION Senate (Platinum & Gold Genesis ONION NFT Holders or โฅ100,000 $ONIT Stakers) โ Honors the original 583 Genesis ONION NFT backers with staking & voting multipliers (Platinum 2.0x, Gold 1.5x, Silver 1.25x, Bronze 1.1x) and direct oversight of the 25% Revenue Buyback & Staking Yield Warchest.
Section 2 โ Anti-Whale Cap & Proof-of-Humanity
Per Section 3 of the September 2025 Constitution, voting power combines staked/held $ONIT, verified event attendance SBTs, and Genesis ONION NFT multipliers, subject to a hard 5% maximum voting cap per wallet to prevent whale capture. Accounts without at least one verified ONTON Soulbound Token or Genesis NFT cannot vote on formal treasury proposals.
Section 3 โ The 25% Net Revenue Buyback & Yield Covenant
Every completed paid ticket order (3% crypto fee split on TON/USDT, 5% fee on Telegram Stars) and every 0.1 TON on-chain SBT upgrade is tracked in real time. Exactly 25% of net platform fee revenue is allocated to the dao_buyback_executions ledger to fund $ONIT liquidity and JVault staking rewards (jvault.xyz/staking/v2/stake/ONION).
