Learn about your realms treasury

Every realm comes with a treasury. This is a place to hold coins from other realms and share it with citizens of your realm. Treasuries are an advanced reputational building tool that allows you to create connections between realms to incentivize work towards complex goals.

Imagine you have a community that's grown to the point where you need several different branches or specializations, for instance:

1. A marketing branch

2. A sales branch

3. An engineering branch

4. A product branch

5. A strategy branch

Create a new realm for each one of these branches. They can all now operate with their own governance strategies, governance coin, distribution scheme and leadership within those realms.

Treasuries allow you as the founder, or owner of the community, to reward each realm with the main community coin. This can be done based on output of each realm, or some pre-agreed on split, or whatever you think makes sense. Rather than minting this to individual members of the realm, you can mint it to the realms treasury. You can imagine some kind of distribution like this:

1. Marketing gets 1000 coins plus more related to performance

2. Sales gets 1000 coins plus more related to performance

3. Engineering gets 5000 coins

4. Product gets 5000 coins

5. Strategy gets 1000 coins

Within each of these specialized realms, citizens are effectively share holders of the treasury. Each citizen holds a claim of ownership over the treasury based on their relative coin holdings earned in each specialized realm. As the founder in the main community, you give your coins to each specialized realm, but you are effectively distributing shares to everyone in your community who participates in one of these realms!

At any point, one of these specialized realms can issue a "dispersement" which disperses all coins held in the treasury to its citizens. This removes the coin from the treasury and splits them proportionally to all citizens of that realm. Now they hold coins from your founders realm, and can participate in founders governance, votes and other activities.

Treasuries can be complicated to understand, but they are an advanced and powerful reputation building feature that gives you both control to weigh the importance of group contributions while allowing groups to organize independently of your influence.
