Decentraland

Introduction

The enacted governance that is to be amended is to be found here: DAO Governance Proposal Stages. This proposal would amend the original policy of the passed governance to reflect the following changes. Any conflicts from this proposal and the original enacted governance (referred to above) will be superseded by this proposal.

Problem

The original proposal is ideal, however the process takes forever. If Decentraland wants to make changes to policy, it takes a minimum of 26 days to get something enacted. That 26 days only can happen if the next stage of the proposal is immediately submitted directly after the passing of the previous stage. This makes it timely and difficult to pass needed policies or amend policies.

Afterall, most of the time, you hear from people “The first proposal should pass easily, it’s just to move to the next stage.” All in all that is true, which essentially makes the first stage pointless.

State of Decentraland

Currently Decentraland is not very active and seems like it has drastically slowed down. It is important that new policies are made to protect the brand and redirect Decentraland to a more successful path. However, this can take months. Months are almost like years in web3. Web3 moves fast and those who do not keep up, get left behind. We need to decrease the duration of the total time for these governance proposals to stay competitive.

Solution

Stage 1: Initial Pitch

Purpose: Present the basic concept of the proposal to gauge preliminary community interest. Content: Include a concise summary of the proposal’s intent, potential impact, and a brief outline of implementation steps. Voting Period: 72 hours (3 days). Quorem: 1 Million VP Submission Threshold: 1,000 VP

Stage 2: Detailed Policy Proposal

Purpose: Provide a comprehensive and formally written governance proposal after incorporating feedback from Stage 1. This will be the enacted policy if passed, as it is written in this stage. Voting Period: 168 hours (7 days). Quorem: 4 Million VP Submission Threshold: 1,000 VP

Conclusion

This amended process should help Decentraland move more swiftly with policy creation and amendments. This also gives the ability to remove bad or poor policy. This amends the original enacted policy (link above). This policy will remove Stage 3 from the governance proposal process. From this point forward, all governance will be passed in 2 stages according to the policy criteria above.
