1. Summary
GreenYield DAO LLC (hereafter GreenYield or GY) - is the member-owned and governed hosted renewables organisation that aims to democratise collaborative contributions towards renewables infrastructures for everyone wanting to participate in the green energy transition and offest their impact without hosting their own infrastructure.
Please refer to the GreenYield Litepaper, DAO Charter and online information (which may be more current) for additional details. Any newer information posted via any GreenYield channel shall replace the info given in this document.
To achieve this objective, GreenYield will issue four tokens with distinctly different properties and utility as outlined here:
● $GreenYield - $GY - main ecosystem utility
● $GYMember - $GYM - the tokenised memberships
● $GYLiquidity / $GYLP – a fixed interest bond
● $GYWatt - $GYW – a production output representation (in Wh).

2. Key Features of the GreenYield DAO tokens
Governance and Utility
GreenYield DAO participation is highly encouraged as it’s a co-op member owned organisation where everyone can participate in shaping the future of the GreenYield ecosystem. This will encourage participation in the member-managed DAO activities and let members contribute to the DAOs objectives – to democratise the global access to green infrastructure and offset impact, independent on one’s own ability to host any renewable infrastructure. Funds raised by the $GreenYield tokens participation will be directed to acquiring and operating renewable infrastructure - initially as defined in the GreenYield DAO charter as Solar Parks. All profits from the GreenYield ecosystem will be reinvested in more installed capacity, creating auto compounding asset value. This is not paid out to the $GY holders, as it’s intented as a utility token for anyone interested in contributing to the GreenYield ecosystem.
Membership
While the utility $GreenYield tokens are not regulated securities and do not pay yield to holders and do not represent any equity stake in the GreenYield DAO LLC. They will be issued under EUs MiCAr regulation classed as “other” utility tokens.
$GY may be locked by holders who wish to claim their equivalent DAO membership in the GreenYield DAO – represented by $GYMember tokens (or on “paper” (digitally), providing access to voting rights and other members only opportunities.
The $GYMember tokens, represent membership, and will therefore require holders to provide the necessary information to be accepted as eligible token holders and DAO LLC members. so while the utility token $GreenYield will be freely transferrable (within permitted locations as stated in the DAO and token charters), the $GYMember Tokens will not be freely transferrable as new holders must first be approved and have their wallets whitelisted as they represent direct membership in
the GreenYield DAO LLC. Holding $GY tokens is not a right to DAO membership. Users based in locations where holding the $GYMember tokens would require it to be regulated under domestic (of the holder) regulation are to refrain from holding the tokenized membership, and will instead be able to hold the paper (digital) membership.
Liquidity
For those wishing to contribute to the GY ecosystem but not hold membership, the $GYLP tokens represent a good opportunity. While the tokens themselves does not pay interest, different fixed-interest contracts will be available with varying yield depending on the lock period and other factors.
Capacity
The GreenYield ecosystem will represent the nominally installed Wp capacity 1:1 with the $GYWatt tokens to provide a simple way for the ecosystem to prove the capacity of the infrastructure in an auditable way. These RWA tokens will initially not be traded or shared outside the ecosystem, but will represent a right to a share of the KWh-production profits, less opex and reinvested capital, of the KWhs sold to the energy grid. They'll be held by the GreenYield organisation, and the corresponding profits will be managed as defined by the GY DAO Charter and Governance.
2. Supply and Distribution
The total supply of $GreenYield tokens at the TGE is 100b. The tokens will be distributed as follows:
● 5% - Liquidity provision, marketing, listing fees and general operating costs. ● 75% - Ecosystem Fund for fundraising for the DAO
● 20% - The Core contributors pledge to lock their allocated $GY to issue the corresponding $GYMember tokens and then loan the $GYMember tokens to the non-profit GreenYield Foundation DAO guiding the ecosystem.
The $GY tokens held by the GreenYield DAO will held in the treasury and a token lock contract and released externally only against contributions of new capital in selected stablecoins or against “contribution in kind” of existing assets (e.g. an existing solar panel park).
As a safety measure for credibility of the GreenYield ecosystem, the GreenYield Foundation DAOs holding of $GYM may not be withdrawn in a period of three years after it received them and then not at a ratio that would exceede 20% of the sold (and therefore released from the GreenYield DAO) amount of $GY. The GreenYield Foundation will use a token lock to only release the pledged $GYMember tokens annually over the 3 years.
3. Token Distribution
$GY tokens from the GreenYield DAO treasury may be distributed through various mechanisms, including the following.
Private and Public Sales
The DAO will launch private and public sales of the $GY tokens to attract liquidity for the installation of renewables infrastructure i.e. initially solar parks incl. land, permits etc.
Participation
Providers of Liquidity to the DAO will receive $GYLP tokens. The holders of may receive yield via staking contracts, based on governance decisions taking into account the performance achieved and a ratio between investments into expanding the capacity and paying yield (fixed or variable) to these token holders.
Listing and liquidity
The GreenYield DAO will seek to expand the adoption and market cap of GreenYield DAO via liquidity provisioning on relevant marketplaces and seeking exchange listings where it's deemed relevant and other distribution channels. This will make it easy to enter and exit the ecosystem.

3. Technical specification
$GY is initially build on Solana – but immediately after TGE, seeking a multi-chain presence via Neon EVMs wrapper, and an app-based wallet presence.
3.1 Initial Deployment on Solana
The $GY token is a fungible token initially deployed on the Solana blockchain. Solana in combination with EVM (Ethereum etc.) offers several advantages:
Lower Transaction Fees
Compared to Ethereum's mainnet, Solana significantly reduces transaction fees, making it more cost-effective for users to interact with the GreenYield DAO.
Faster Transaction Speeds
Solana provides faster transaction speeds, enabling quicker and more efficient participation in DAO governance and other on-chain activities.
Wider availability
Solana combined with the EVM chains represents direct access to the majority of current DeFi liquidity at the lowest possible overhead.
3.2 Future Interoperability with LayerZero
While initially deployed on Solana and using the Neon EVM wrapper, the GreenYield DAO aims to achieve chain independence in the future by integrating with other cross-chain solutions like LayerZero. The GreenYield DAO will be able to adapt to the evolving blockchain landscape and integrate with new and emerging chains as needed.
3.3. Technical Specifications of the tokens
These are the core parameters of the ecosystem tokens.
● Token Standards:
$GY – SRL Default (corresponding with ERC-20)
$GYWatt – Metaplex core on Solana (corresponding with ERC-1155) ● $GYM – Metaplex core on Solana (corresponding with ERC-1155)
$GYLP Solana SRL + “Token extension” or “Token-20222 (corresponding with ERC-3643)
● Initial Blockchain: Solana with EVM wrapping via Neon EVM.
● Interoperability Solution: TBD
● Token Symbols:
○ $GY
○ $GYM
○ $GYLP
○ $GYW
● Token Decimals: 18
● Minting at TGE:
○ $GY: 100.000.000.000 (fixed total supply with burn enabled)
○ $GYMember: Minted when $GY is locked, and burned when $GY are re-released – so the sum total circulating supply of $GY and $GYM can never exceed 100.000.000.000 (or less if some $GY have been
burned)
○ $GYWatt: Will be minted in a 1:1 ratio with the nominally produced Wh output, and each will represent the right to the pro-rata share of the profit of the KWh sold to the market.

4. Security Considerations
The token smart contracts will be based on OpenZeppelin default libraries and will undergo rigorous audits by a reputable third-party auditing service to ensure their integrity and resilience against potential vulnerabilities. The GreenYield DAO is committed to maintaining the highest security standards to protect the interests of its members and the integrity of the tokens. Auditor reports will be made available to DAO members.

5. Disclaimer
$GY is, as specified in the GreenYield DAO whitepaper, a utility token and not a regulated financial security. It will be issued under the EU MiCAr regulation for utility tokens (category “other”) via a fully owned EU entity and It is not intended to be consideres as an investment or speculative instrument. The value of $GY may fluctuate based on market conditions and the overall success of the GreenYield DAO. It should not be considered an investment asset, and holding the tokens by wallets owned or controlled by people or entities in the OFARC countries and any other locations where such holdings would be considered in violation of local regulation is forbidden and it’s the responsibility for anyone considering holding the tokens to familiarize themselves with their regulatory requirements and refraining from holding the tokens if it would represent a violation of their local regulations. GreenYield DAO LLC is member-governed and open for equity participation as defined in the DAO charter. Holding $GreenYield does not constitute any member rights in the DAO LLC whereas holding $GYMember does.
