 # COAL: Establish Development Fund?
 
 ## Summary
-Proposal to establish a development fund through a 4.2% emissions allocation (472.5 COAL/day) to support protocol development, reward community contributions, and enable marketing initiatives. The allocation would increase total supply growth by 4.2% rather than reducing mining rewards. Failed after 3-day voting period.
+Proposal to allocate 4.2% of COAL mining emissions (472.5 COAL/day) to a development fund managed by a DAO multisig. The fund would support protocol development, reward community contributions, and enable marketing initiatives. The allocation would increase total supply growth by 4.2% rather than reducing mining rewards.

 ## Significance
-This proposal tested community willingness to fund protocol development through inflation in a fair-launch token with no pre-mine or team allocation. The failure suggests miners prioritized emission purity over development funding, or that the 4.2% dilution was perceived as too high. The proposal included transparency commitments (weekly claims, public expenditure tracking, DAO-managed multisig) but still failed to achieve market support.
+This proposal represents a governance test of whether a fair-launch community (no pre-mine, no team allocation) will vote to establish ongoing protocol funding through emissions. The failure indicates resistance to dilution even when mining rewards are preserved, revealing community preference for zero-inflation tokenomics over funded development.
 
-The rejection creates a sustainability question for COAL: how does a zero-premine project fund ongoing development without either diluting miners or relying on volunteer labor?
+The 4.2% allocation structure (472.5 COAL/day from 11,250 base rate) shows an attempt to balance sustainability with fairness by increasing total emissions rather than redirecting miner rewards. The rejection suggests the community prioritized supply scarcity over development funding.

 # COAL
 
 ## Overview
-COAL is a community-driven cryptocurrency project that launched in August 2024 with a fair launch model—no pre-mine and no team allocation. The project uses futarchy governance through Futardio and operates on a proof-of-work mining model with daily emissions. The zero-allocation launch model creates sustainability questions around funding protocol development.
+COAL is a fair-launch cryptocurrency project launched in August 2024 with no pre-mine or team allocation. The project operates as a community-driven protocol with mining-based token distribution. As of December 2024, the project was considering but ultimately rejected establishing a development fund through emissions allocation.
