Question 1

What is SCR?

Accepted Answer

SCR is Scroll's native governance token and provides the voting-rights basis for governance decisions by Scroll DAO. Scroll DAO is intended to participate in managing Scroll as the protocol progressively decentralizes, within a broader governance framework that also includes the Scroll Foundation and the Security Council. SCR's stated use is therefore governance participation; it does not automatically equate to network gas, protocol revenue, or returns for holding the token. Holders can express or delegate their voting power on matters within the DAO's remit, while the specific proposal process and execution rules are determined by the governance documents in effect at the time.

Question 2

How can I participate in Scroll DAO after holding SCR?

Accepted Answer

SCR holders may vote in Scroll DAO themselves or delegate their tokens to a representative who votes on their behalf in governance. Delegation allows holders who do not have the time or specialized background to follow every governance matter personally to still participate through a chosen representative. Governance participation does not occur only at the voting stage. Members interested in governance can consider becoming delegates, and any community member can participate in proposal co-creation and forum discussions. Whether someone can submit, vote on, or execute a particular proposal still depends on the governance process and rules then in effect.

Question 3

What governance matters can SCR holders participate in?

Accepted Answer

Scroll DAO has identified voting matters including allocation of DAO treasury funds, funding initiatives such as the creation of grant programs, and social ratification of matters such as revisions to governance documents. SCR voting power allows holders or their delegates to participate in collective decisions on these matters. These areas respectively affect where resources are directed, how ecosystem funding works, and the governance rules themselves. They should not be understood broadly as allowing holders to directly decide every technical or operational matter. Official documents also list committees, on-chain governance models, and multiple grant mechanisms as directions for gradual future expansion; these should be distinguished from the voting matters already identified.

Question 4

How are SCR's supply and initial allocation structured?

Accepted Answer

SCR has a total supply of 1 billion tokens. Its initial allocation is 35% for ecosystem and growth, 15% for airdrops, 23% for core contributors, 17% for investors, and 10% for the Scroll Foundation treasury; these categories total 100%. These percentages describe the initial-allocation basis, not the circulating supply at a given point in time. Whether tokens in different categories are transferable also depends on their respective unlocking arrangements. In particular, core contributor and investor tokens are subject to subsequent unlocking periods, so allocation percentages should not be treated as immediately tradable supply.

Question 5

How do SCR tokens for core contributors and investors unlock?

Accepted Answer

SCR allocated to core contributors and investors is subject to unlocking arrangements: unlocking begins one year after the token launch and is planned to be completed before the end of the four-year period following launch. In other words, the first year is the period before unlocking begins, and the release process for these two categories starts only afterward. This arrangement describes only the time framework for these two allocation categories. It does not mean all SCR follows the same schedule, nor can it be used to calculate the exact circulating supply on a particular date. Supply should be understood by distinguishing total supply, initial allocation categories, lock-up status, and the amount already unlocked.
