# Introduction

## Mission and Values

> As we strive for decentralized governance, the DAO will set clear guidelines on proposal creation and voting through the governance process for each phase. 

The operational framework will provide better transparency to the community and clear the path for public contribution and decentralized processes. 

As we go forward, we must gauge security concerns, consensus roadblocks, fair participation and other barriers like high transaction costs. 

We are always learning new methods of decentralizing governance, and these must be considered as even the top DAOs are constantly upgrading. 

Being restricted to Snapshot and multi-sigs for the time being limits decentralization but still allows for a secure, accessible and sometimes more efficient voting process.
