This proposal initiates a weighted vote to determine the structure and timing of the $DEUS TGE. The DAO is being asked to select from three proposed launch window strategies, each offering a different balance of timing flexibility and Northstar Council discretion.
We encourage all members to read the full context article before voting, as it outlines the strategic reasoning, tradeoffs and deeper context needed to cast an informed vote.

Note: Under XMQ-02, the DAO previously authorized the Northstar Council to activate DEUS token transferability at any time between January 1 and February 15, 2026. The Council chose not to exercise that authorization and is instead deferring the decision to the DAO through this proposal.
For two and a half years, we’ve been building XMAQUINA together. Infrastructure. Governance. Capital deployment. Protocol design. Ecosystem execution.
The DAO is live. The tech is ready. From a technical standpoint, $DEUS could launch tomorrow. But a token launch is not just a milestone. It is a strategic activation of the entire system. Timing is everything.
Projects only get one chance to launch. First impressions shape the trajectory. Poor timing can cost years of momentum, even for the strongest teams.
XMAQUINA is in a rare position. Our robotics investments are already compounding. The RCM Protocol is entering buildout. Robotico, the DAO’s first incubation, is preparing for beta. And we are ahead of the robotics narrative that is now accelerating across the broader market.
This is not downtime. Every step forward sharpens our edge. The ecosystem is gaining traction. Strategic capital is working. Visibility is growing as we continue to deploy into the world’s leading robotics companies.
This proposal gives the DAO control over how to capture the strongest possible launch window. It is not about waiting. It is about launching at full strength.
Each additional week strengthens our position by allowing further capital deployment, asset appreciation, and ecosystem progress ahead of launch.
This vote determines which launch window structure the DAO will authorize. All paths lead to a $DEUS launch. The only question is how to structure that launch for maximum effectiveness.
Each option represents a different balance of timing flexibility, DAO control, and Northstar council discretion.
Comparing flexibility, timing, and risk across all three options.
Authorize the Northstar Council to trigger the $DEUS TGE at any time starting 4 weeks after this vote passes. The latest possible launch date is August 31, 2026.
This option gives the DAO flexibility to capture the strongest possible timing. If conditions align, TGE could occur as early as mid March. The Council may launch earlier but cannot go beyond the summer deadline.
Authorize a fixed launch window starting 4 weeks and ending 16 weeks after the vote passes. TGE must occur within this range, no earlier than mid-March and no later than mid-June 2026.
This option limits flexibility but still gives the Council room to act within a defined range.
Authorize a fixed launch window starting 4 weeks and ending 8 weeks after the vote passes. TGE must occur within this shorter range, likely between mid-March and mid-April.
This option prioritizes speed but offers little room to adapt if conditions are not ideal.
The Northstar Council recommends Option 1: Strategic Window.
This structure gives the DAO the greatest flexibility to align the $DEUS launch with strong ecosystem momentum and favorable conditions, while still setting a clear outer boundary. It preserves optionality, allows the Council to act with precision, and avoids locking the DAO into a rigid timeline if the environment remains uncertain.
The Council remains fully committed to executing whichever option the DAO selects.
Upon completion of the vote, the Execution Engine will carry out the winning option based on the weighted outcome. That includes finalizing the $DEUS launch strategy in coordination with partners and exchanges.
Preparations for transferability, liquidity, listings, and communications will begin immediately following the result.
