The pitch, ready

Turn the rewards a community already earns into steady, public support for a place it cares about.

Problem: Communities want to give, but pooling deposits is risky and donations are hard to track.

Solution: A wrapper over a reward vault that sets aside a share of rewards, a one member one vote ballot and two half payouts gated on receipts.

Why now: Berachain reward vaults pay ongoing BGT rewards that can be redirected without touching deposits.

Market: Gaming guilds, clubs and DAOs on Berachain, from free to $79 a month.

The ask: Launch with ten Kampala gaming guilds and three school libraries.

Funding is never guaranteed. Check each program's rules.

BLUEPRINT

Why it matters and how it really works

The need

Guilds, DAOs and LP communities on Berachain earn steady BGT rewards that mostly get claimed and forgotten. Many of their members would happily send a slice to something real nearby, but doing it by hand each month is a chore and nobody can see where it went.

What exists and what is new

Crypto giving already exists: Giveth and Endaoment let people donate onchain, mostly on other chains, and Berachain has its own reward vault system. What research did not find is a reward vault on Berachain that routes a set share of its BGT rewards to a cause chosen by its depositors each month. The parts are known; the combination for Berachain is the new piece, and the novelty claim is modest.

The data it runs on

Vault deposits and reward claims (public, onchain), the share setting, the cause list with payout addresses, monthly ballot totals, payout transactions, and the receipts causes post back (photos and invoices, stored offchain with a hash onchain). Individual votes are kept private; only totals are published.

1.The mission

Let any community turn the rewards it already earns into steady, visible support for a place it cares about, without anyone giving up their deposit.

2.Why people can't resist it

Book Night The monthly ballot opens with photos from last month's cause. It is a small ritual the guild looks forward to.

Receipt streak A visible streak of months where every payout came back with a receipt. A broken streak is public too.

Patron badge Members who vote six months running get a badge on their profile and their name on the cause's thank you wall.

3.How it works for real

Vault wrapper: A contract on Berachain that stakes members' LP into an existing reward vault and tracks each member's share. Deposits and withdrawals work as normal at any time.

Cause share: On each claim, the set share of BGT (10 to 50%) is kept aside. Because BGT is non transferable, the keeper redeems that share for BERA, then swaps to USDC in small slices with a price impact cap.

Monthly ballot: Snapshot style ballot, one member one vote after 14 days staked by default. Totals are written onchain at close; individual choices are not published.

Payout and receipts: USDC goes to the winning cause's address, optionally in two halves. Causes post a photo and invoice; its hash is recorded so the guild page can show a verified receipt.

Keeper: A small scheduled service (for example a cron worker) that claims, redeems, swaps and pays. It has no power to move deposits, add causes or change addresses; those need a 3 of 5 officer Safe.

Guild page and alerts: A public page listing every payout and receipt, plus Telegram or WhatsApp reminders when the ballot opens and when a receipt lands.

4.Cost per use and pricing

Berachain transactions usually cost well under a cent each, so a month's claim, redeem, four swap slices and a payout come to a few cents. Hosting the keeper and guild page runs about $10 to $25 a month. Example: a guild with $8,400 deposited at an assumed 12% reward rate earns about $84 a month; at 25% it sends about $21 to its cause and pays only cents in fees. Reward rates change often and are not guaranteed.

Guild Free up to 50 members

Community $15 a month

Unlimited members, two halves payouts, custom ballot rules, branded guild page and reminders.

Ecosystem 1% of cause flow, capped

For protocols that want to run a cause vault for their whole community, with reporting.

5.Growth loop

Each school or library that receives a payout shares its receipt page, which shows the guild's name and a link to start a vault. Guilds compare streaks, and causes invite the next community they know.

6.Risks and guardrails

Charity and tax rules: Sending money to schools may count as a donation with local rules. The app does not give tax advice and lets guilds pay only verified causes.

Fake or captured causes: A cause can stop reporting or try to change its address. Two halves payouts, receipt checks and an officer quorum for address changes limit the damage.

Vote capture: Stake weighted votes let a late whale decide. Default is one member one vote with a minimum staking time.

Reward volatility: BGT emissions and BERA price move. The pot can shrink sharply and the app says so plainly; no return is promised.

Contract and keeper bugs: A bug could lock rewards. Audited reward vault interfaces, a small wrapper, and a pause switch held by the officer Safe.

Privacy: Who voted for what is not published. Receipts may show children; causes are asked to post shelves and invoices, not faces.

7.Build order

Wrapper contract over one Berachain reward vault with a fixed cause share
Keeper that claims, redeems BGT to BERA and swaps to USDC in slices
Cause list and officer Safe for address changes
Monthly ballot with one member one vote and onchain totals
Public guild page with payouts and receipt uploads
Two halves payout and reminders for ballots and receipts

8.Where this is going

Now
One guild, one vault, a monthly vote for a school library in Kampala.
Next
Many guilds and DAOs run cause vaults, and causes keep one verified page across all of them.
Later
Protocols set a cause share at the vault level, so whole ecosystems fund local libraries, clinics and clubs by default.
The big one
Idle rewards across chains become a steady, transparent stream to community institutions, with receipts anyone can check.

Why own Cause Vault

Cause Vault: A reward vault that sends a share of its BGT rewards to a cause the depositors pick. Using someone else's version means their rules, their brand and their revenue. Owning Cause Vault means it is deployed under your wallet, carries your name, and every customer, partner and result builds your track record instead of theirs.
