Governance

Overview

Governance allows for arriving at on-chain decisions, where tokenholders can create proposals that other tokenholders can vote to approve or reject.

Proposals are enacted if they get enough votes from tokenholders. There's no limit to how many active proposals you can vote on.

The Vega software provides functionality to support on-chain proposals for governing:

Markets: Creating new markets and changing parameters for existing ones
Assets - Adding new assets and changing parameters for existing ones
Transferring network assets - Moving network-held assets to different accounts or keys
Network parameters - Changing the values of existing parameters to change network and market behaviour
Freeform - Exploring community sentiment for actions that may or may not be enacted on-chain
