Admin Section

The Admin Section provides a secure and permissioned interface for managing core operational and configuration aspects of the Engage platform. It enables authorized team members to carry out high-impact actions related to governance, token vesting, liquidity pool setup, and system permissions.

This section is integral to maintaining the integrity of the ecosystem and ensuring that only designated actors can initiate or approve protocol-level changes. Role-based access is enforced through smart contract permissions, and all actions are executed transparently on-chain.

The module is designed to support evolving platform needs, with extensibility for managing ecosystem wallets, approving proposals, or coordinating token distributions.

Getting Started

Accessing the Admin Dashboard

1. Go to your Defactor Engage instance.

Token Metrics & Wallets

Token Supply & Distribution

Admins can monitor:

• Total supply and circulating supply
• Staked tokens and buyback totals
• Network distribution (Ethereum, Polygon, etc.)

  📝 Tip: Hover over tooltips for deeper insights into how these numbers are calculated.

Ecosystem Wallet Management

Engage displays all project-owned wallets, including:

• Wallet addresses
• Live balances
• Transaction history

Admins can assign labels and explanations to each wallet for added clarity.

💡 The ecosystem wallets configured here will be shown in the Ecosystem Dashboard. There is a default wallet that will be automatically assigned any unallocated funds.

---

Staking Management

Admins can create and manage staking pools with full control over:

• Token type (e.g., $FACTR)
• APR or APY rate
• Lock-up durations (flexible or fixed)
• Start and end dates
• Reward disbursement logic

Setting Up a Staking Pool

1. Navigate to Staking > Admin Panel

2. Click Create New Pool

3. Fill in:

   • Pool Name
   • Lockup Period
   • Reward Rate (APY)
   • Accepted Token

4. Deploy the smart contract via your connected wallet

   ✅ Engage handles smart contract deployment and staking logic — no manual coding required.

Governance Module

Engage supports decentralized governance using token-weighted voting.

Creating a Proposal

1. Go to Governance > Propose

2. Enter:

   • Title
   • Description (supporting text, rationale, thresholds)
   • Snapshot date: defines voting power based on token holdings
   • End date

3. Submit and sign the transaction

   📈 Only wallets with governance rights (e.g., minimum FACTR threshold) can submit proposals.

Admin Responsibilities

• Moderating inappropriate or spam proposals
• Ensuring snapshot logic functions correctly
• Responding to questions or challenges from the community

---

Buyback Dashboard

The Buyback section shows all automated buyback operations, including:

• Amount of tokens purchased
• Date of buyback
• Wallets used
• Lock-up durations

Admins can:

• Adjust the buyback configuration (e.g., frequency, allocation)
• Monitor token scarcity trends
• Export logs for treasury reporting

---

Identity and Permission Management

Admins can whitelist users for:

• Governance proposal rights
• Staking eligibility (for compliance-required tokens like ERC-3643)
• Specific token use (e.g., ART issuance)

This is managed under:

Admin > Permissions > Whitelist User

Add a wallet address, assign roles, and save. You can also revoke roles at any time.

---

Network & Token Configuration

Admins can:

• Add support for new blockchain networks (EVM-compatible)
• Register new tokens (ERC-20 or ERC-3643)
• Set compliance requirements per token
• Configure staking token compatibility

📋 This is particularly important for platforms using Engage to manage third-party tokens, like Libertum's $LBM.

The Vesting tab allows admins to securely manage token vesting for:

• Team members
• Advisors and investors
• Ecosystem partners

Admin Capabilities:

• Create new vesting schedules
• View unlock timelines and progress
• Cancel or adjust schedules (with proper rights)
• Monitor released vs. locked amounts

   • Wallet address
   • Total amount
   • Start date
