The Protocol Is Yours.
Here’s How to Use It.
Aras Dao Project is governed entirely on-chain by ARAS KEY holders. No company, no team veto, no central authority. Every protocol parameter from fee rates to treasury allocation is decided by the community.
How Governance Works
Draft a Proposal
Any holder of 10,000+ VLT can draft a Vault Improvement Proposal (VIP) on the governance forum. Community discussion runs for at least 3 days before on-chain submission.
Submit On-Chain
The proposal is submitted on-chain with a $5,000 VLT deposit to prevent spam. The deposit is fully returned upon proposal execution.
Vote
Voting is open for 7 days. Each VLT = 1 vote. Proposals need 4% quorum and >50% approval to pass. Delegation is fully supported for passive holders.
Execute
Approved proposals enter a 48-hour timelock before execution — giving the community time to exit if they disagree with the outcome.
