Governance on Solana is evolving. Structa is a new modular protocol designed for launching and managing decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) with precision, clarity, and flexibility. Inspired by proven systems like Compound and Curve, Structa reimagines DAO governance for the unique demands of the Solana ecosystem.
Why Structa?
For too long, launching a DAO on Solana meant wrestling with fragmented tooling, custom deployments, and overly centralized control. Smart contracts were often closed-source and freely upgradeable by single teams not because of bad intent, but because building open governance was simply too difficult.
Structa solves this by providing a minimal, composable architecture built entirely in Anchor. Proposals, voting, and execution are separated into distinct on-chain modules, giving teams complete control over how governance operates and how much of it they want to adopt.
Structa doesn’t dictate. It provides the structure. Use only what you need. Extend when you’re ready.
How It Works
Structa is centered on three core primitives:
- Proposals: Create and manage on-chain decisions with defined context and structure.
- Voting: Leverage flexible staking and vote-locking mechanisms (powered by veTokens) to enable weighted and meaningful voting.
- Execution: Execute approved proposals through governed smart wallets with customizable logic and trustless safety.
Each part of Structa is standalone — but designed to interlock seamlessly.
Why Not Use Existing Governance?
While alternatives like SPL Governance exist, Structa is built with a different philosophy:
- Anchor-Native: Structa integrates cleanly with the modern Anchor development stack, opening up easier interoperability with other Solana protocols.
- Modular by Design: Each function — from proposals to execution — can be adopted independently. You don’t need the whole suite to get started.
- Shared Program, Shared Standard: Structa runs as a shared on-chain governance standard, meaning protocols don’t need to deploy their own governance logic or hold custody of user tokens.
- Simplicity First: Structa does less, on purpose — putting governance design back in your hands.
- Beyond the Basics
- Structa includes vote-locking via veTokens to reward long-term participants. This unlocks economic design options such as emission control, incentive alignment, and tiered voting.
Over time, Structa aims to lower the barrier to launching a DAO — not just technically, but culturally. Governance should be a default, not an afterthought.
