What is Consortium?
Consortium is a decentralized, on-chain, incentive based governance layer for any social organization. As Consortium states in the Consortium Commons, “By providing a token-weighted signaling protocol, the aim is to help communities define and prioritize problems, make and select proposals, keep the stakeholders accountable, and in general aggregate their sentiment.”
In other words, Consortium is a voting application on EOS that empowers communities to make helpful decisions together. You can explore the app here and view the Eden Consortium page here. View the proposal to use Consortium as a signaling tool to help reach consensus and make decisions here.
Consortium is built by Vlad Hramtsov and Lennar Lehestik.

What are Cignals?
Cignals are opinions that help us cooperate with the power of Consortium. Cignals help communities know what people are thinking, get a feel for the room, and measure consensus.
You can learn more about Cignals in this article.
What is Eden Consortium?
Eden Consortium is a place where the Eden community makes polls and proposals. You can view the polls and proposals from Eden community here.
Below is an example of the Eden Consortium interface:
Proposals for Eden ƒractal
There are currently four proposals about Consortium for the Eden ƒractal community. You can vote at the links below if you’d like the community to use Consortium in these ways.
I’d like to focus on these three proposals in the hour after breakout rooms during our next meeting. I believe that Consortium will be a super helpful tool for Eden ƒractal and am preparing a presentation to show some benefits. I’m stoked about Consortium and the Eden+Fractal process working together to help communities cooperate far better than ever before! Please feel free to share any questions or comments in Discord. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! 🙂
