Participation vs Apathy

Encouraging Participation

• Implementing two tiers of votes

  • Proposals with low impact only require 1000 VP to vote.

  • Proposals with high impact affecting protocols/governance/treasury will require 10,000 VP to vote.

• Using Elections

  • Electing community members to show commitment towards more decentralization.

• Incentivize voting

  • “I Voted Poaps”

  • Possible Guardian NFT

Avoiding Voter Apathy

• Creating template and time requirements for proposals

  • Templates make it easy for users to progress through research and get to voting efficiently

  • Time requirements allow good proposals to filter to the top after peer review.

• Direct proposal flows through forum admins.

  • This filters useless and junk proposals which can dilute and bore users.

• Present tools for ease of use voting, data tracking, and provide governance education.
