✨ Charlie is streamlining the onchain governance delegation process with a single click powered by a an embeddable button supporting countless blockchains and tokens.

Charlie: A Modern Delegation Approach

Since the beginning of the onchain governance, delegation has remained underutilized resulting in centralized organizations that are controlled by a select few whales.

Charlie is a modern delegation approach that aims to solve this problem by providing a decentralized and fair governance system by streamling the manner in which tokens are delegated to strong representatives.

How it works

Charlie is a simple and intuitive delegation system that allows users to delegate tokens across a range of protocols and networks with the click of a button.

Instead of having to delegate tokens for each protocol individually, users can delegate their tokens to a single representative who will serve as the best proxy ecosystem-wide.

Supported Networks

Currently, you can use Charlie to interact with governance tokens across a range of EVM-compatible networks. These networks include:

• Ethereum
• Optimism
• Polygon
• Avalanche
• Arbitrum

Automated Token Aggregation

Charlie is the first delegation system that allows users to delegate tokens across a range of protocols and networks with the click of a button. To do this, it is powered under the hood by Flipside Crypto's Query Engine along with a powerful onchain contract providing a still-decentralized and secure interaction with the system.

The current criteria is applied to all tokens in order to determine if they are eligible for delegation and is as follows:

• The token must support ERC20Votes.
• The token must have historical delegations.
  • Automated token detection for Charlie is not designed to seed new tokens, but rather to provide a fair and decentralized governance system for existing tokens.
• The name and symbol of the token must have a length of 2 or more characters.
  • This is to avoid tokens that are not intended for governance, such as test tokens.
• The token must be deployed on one of the supported networks.

The full list of tokens supported by automated aggregation can be found at /api/erc20/fixtures/erc20.auto.json.

Adding a Governance Token to Charlie

While Charlie operates with automated aggregation, there may be certain circumstances where a token is not automatically detected. In these cases, you can add the token to the list of supported tokens by following the steps below:

1. Fork the repository.
2. Add your token to the list at /api/erc20/fixtures/erc20.manual.json.
3. Submit a pull request containing your update.

charlie's Issues

Svelte component

Implement ens integration for delegate address

Make real design for mobile

feat: functional database integration

OpenAPI

Add authentication to views

Implement UUIDs and button navigation

Warning
Requires the deletion of your database due to malformed UUIDs.

Socials / sharables preparation

Make all pages look like the design

fix: switching between buttons doesn't update modal state

Button list (profile) page

use connected wallet in button form

Modal component

React component

feat: lock in the modal and squash edge cases

Implement ENS integration for active -> future delegation states

Embed and edit page

Button page

Add delegation checks to the multicall so that we can reference the change as well as prevent running transactions on existing state.

Arc-ify the brand

Determine how we can remove the need for users to run the transactions

Button create and edit form

Standard javascript component

fetch client

This adds the ability to more seamlessly interface with the API from the frontend as well as handles the logout backing logic when a session has expired.

fix: delegate works only sometimes?

Have not had time to test properly, but sometimes delegation does not actually work. The transaction runs, but the event data is all boofed. I think it's possible we're mishandling the signature data? Need to test more and get reproducing consistently.

Add navbar, footer and wallet connection

fix: hex color input improvements

feat: visible delegation state on modal

fix: loose styling issues

Fix build errors

Implement real design

Contract multicall and signatures

We need the ability to have a user queue up their tokens and sign the transactions before calling the aggregate multicall on the Charlie.sol contract.
