TIP-108: Reduce Governor Bravo Voting Period from 9 Days to 7 Days
tl;dr
Reduce the Threshold Governor Bravo Voting Period from 9 days to 7 days by updating the votingPeriod from 66,461 blocks โ 50,000 blocks.
Background
Threshold DAO governance uses Governor Bravo, which defines voting delay, voting period, quorum, and execution rules.
The current voting period is 9 days, as confirmed on-chain via votingPeriod() = 66461 blocks.
A 9-day voting duration slows governance execution and extends proposal cycles unnecessarily. Moving to a 7-day period improves DAO responsiveness while maintaining a widely recognized minimum timeframe for decentralized participation.
Proposal
This proposal updates the Governor Bravo voting period as follows:
- Old value: 66,461 blocks (~9 days)
- New value: 50,000 blocks (~7 days)
This change:
- Reduces the total governance cycle by two days
- Maintains broad accessibility for voters
- Aligns Threshold more closely with standard DAO governance timing
- Requires no new contracts or permissions
Transaction
The Governor Bravo contract will execute a single administrative call:
- Update Voting Period
- Contract: Governor Bravo (

Notes
- This proposal modifies only the voting period; all other governance parameters remain unchanged.
- The 7-day duration preserves decentralization while enabling more agile DAO decision-making.
