Governance by Grape: Proposals, voting, treasury management. The direct Realms equivalent, maintained by the community.

Grape DAO Call Recap - Sunday 18th October 2026
We opened with the current state of the market, analyzing the current downturn across the board ( stocks and crypto). Backpack was a standout in the sea of red, up 10% on the day.
We touched on DLMM positions on @MeteoraAG before moving into war updates (USA vs IRAN), including the France unrest and protests which are getting increasingly serious talking points includes the burning of a church over 143 years old was one of the talking points.
The second pass for the MERIT review for the quarter which kicked off on Tuesday was paused today as the the focus was the completion of GRIP and GUBA performance rewards for the previous month.
We also covered the Grape Verification update aimed at clamping down on Sybil accounts.
Then we ended with raffles

https://t.co/7Yq1fAGJ55 recently flagged a malicious proposal for Grape DAO and tagged it immediately with a HIGH risk rating, right on the proposal page.
What it caught:
๐ดAuthor has no active Grape Verification
๐ดAuthor has zero DAO reputation this season
๐ดA token holder with no prior voting history in the DAO
๐กTreasury assets leaving DAO-controlled accounts (2 transfers, 2 assets, 1 destination)
๐กDestination wallet unverified, with zero DAO reputation
๐กNo proposal description at all
Every red flag was surfaced automatically, so members didn't have to dig through raw instructions to spot it.
This is what DAO governance should look like. ๐

Extra levels were proposed starting with social media contributors, with plans to extend it across all contribution categories going forward.
@frankboccia_ came through with updates on @scoutfinance_ , including the Solana Foundation recognizing the product with a tweet from their main page, solid validation for the team.
We touched on the state of the market and some war updates before rounding up with raffles.

5/5 Market mood (as scanned from the chat): 52% bullish, 28% bearish, 20% coping.
The Clarity Act failing on 15 Sep cooled sentiment, then $SOL and $SUI caught bids late in the month. The DAO also reviewed new token selections for raffles including $MET, $RAY, $PUMP, solana:JUPyiwrYJFskUPiHa7hkeR8VUtAeFoSYbKedZNsDvCN and $SOL
