Dora Factory, leveraging MACI and anonymous MACI technology as well as the Dora Vota appchain, is building a mobile-first privacy super app. This app empowers the Web3 community to realize private governance and on-chain private communication, allowing users to participate in governance, polling, and on-chain communication while preserving privacy. It advances true freedom of speech within the Web3 world.
**Core Apps**
**Governance Participation: Privacy-Preserved Community Governance**
**Anonymous aMACI to Revive Direct Democracy in Web3 Community Governance**: Through this app, users can participate in the native on-chain governance of multiple chains and Web3 communities anonymously. This part of the app has been adopted by many Web3 infrastructures like CosmosHub, Celestia, Taiko and Aptos.
**Incentive by Defending Freedom of Speech**: Currently, on-chain governance is typically public (with addresses and identities traceable), which subjects many stakeholders (such as investors, node operators, and community members) to external pressures, hindering them from expressing their true opinions. With MACI and aMACI, Dora Vota offers an anonymous governance environment where identity constraints no longer influence community members. They can anonymously vote and voice genuine opinions in a privacy-preserved setting.
**Enhanced Effectiveness of Governance**: By safeguarding anonymity, Dora Factory encourages genuine participation, improving the effectiveness and inclusivity of governance, resulting in more reliable governance outcomes and fostering a healthier, more authentic governance system.
**Private Polling: A High-Frequency Decentralized Opinion Market Enabled by Anonymous MACI**
**Anonymous Participation in Polling for Popular Topics**: This app allows users to anonymously participate in polling on popular topics to express their perspectives and opinions. We can start with crypto-native hot topics and expand to Web2 topics in the future.
**Differences from and Advantages over Polymarket**: Current prediction markets, such as Polymarket, possess certain decentralized characteristics but have high barriers to entry, low discussion frequency, and limited permissionless market creation, which restricts the range of topics and capital efficiency. Dora Factory's private polling leverages aMACI technology, allowing users to anonymously initiate and participate in polls without permission, on any topic, achieving a meaningful level of freedom of speech.
**A Media Transformation to true leader of the Fifth Estate**: Private polling aligns closely with the spirit of free speech and the concept of the "Fifth Estate." Its high frequency and broad coverage bring wider application scenarios to decentralized media, enabling users to discuss Web3 and even broader issues of public interest freely.
**On-Chain Private Mail and Messaging: Encrypted Communication for Privacy**
**Encrypted Communication Ensuring Privacy**: This app allows users to send and receive encrypted messages on-chain. Dora Factory extends MACI encryption technology from voting to message communication, enabling mass interactions between on-chain addresses. Users can not only encrypt their votes but also encrypt emails and messages, enjoying a more comprehensive decentralized and privacy-first communication experience.
**On-Chain Private Mail and Instant Messaging**: On-chain private mail and message transmission break away from traditional centralized IM/email models, allowing Web3 users to communicate efficiently, securely, and natively. This app opens up a privacy-focused communication channel based on on-chain addresses, providing a convenient and private feature for DAO member interactions, NFT transactions, and other on-chain use cases.
**Technical Support and Value Capture**
Dora Vota is Dora Factory's native appchain, the foundation for privacy governance and private communication applications. It captures the value of the above applications, establishing itself as a crucial appchain in the Web3 ecosystem for privacy protection. Dora Vota will be the first Fifth Estate Appchain.
