# Governance Process

The governance process is streamlined for efficiency and transparency.

#### **Proposal Drafting**

* Community members can draft proposals and discuss them in governance forums.
* Drafts must include detailed justifications, implementation steps, and potential risks.

#### **On-Chain Voting**

* Proposals move to on-chain voting after sufficient community review.
* Voting is conducted over a predefined period (e.g., 7 days).

#### **Result Implementation**

* If a proposal meets the quorum and receives majority approval, it is queued for execution via smart contracts.
* Certain proposals, such as parameter adjustments, may take effect immediately, while major updates require timelocks.
