FAQs
Who controls the agent’s private key?
The agent’s private key is currently managed by the RingDAO team to ensure reliability and security. We plan to explore decentralized key management in the future.
Is the agent available for all DAOs on DeGov?
Yes. The agent runs as an open-source plugin (https://github.com/ringecosystem/degov-essential) alongside DeGov. Anyone hosting a DeGov instance can deploy the agent service and enable it for their DAO.
Do all DAOs share the same X account?
Yes. All DAOs on the DeGov platform use the official X account: @ai_degov.
Can the agent see who voted in the tweet poll?
No. Due to X’s privacy limitations, the agent only sees aggregate poll results (For/Against/Abstain), not individual voter identities.
Are tweet poll votes counted as on-chain votes?
No. The tweet poll is an off-chain gauge of community sentiment. On-chain votes follow DeGov’s smart contracts. Poll results only inform the agent’s analysis.
What prevents malicious manipulation of the tweet poll?
The agent uses a multi-source strategy. Poll votes are one input, combined with on-chain vote data and comment sentiment. The agent also detects abnormal activity (bots, Sybil attacks) when evaluating poll results.
How does the agent use tweet poll data?
The poll closes before on-chain voting ends. The agent analyzes poll results, sentiment from comments, and on-chain metrics to cast its vote based on its configured strategy. See How does the agent make a vote decision? for details.
