On-chain governance allows the participation of developers, community members, miners, and other users, besides simply token holders, in the network governance. Such users are entitled to propose and vote for on-chain proposals. This type of governance is conducted via smart contracts and the types of proposals are based on protocol upgrades, this includes modifications to network parameters and changes to management and governance seats.
The off-chain governance deals with issues related to safeguarding raised funds, sustainability of community projects, and the overall effectiveness of the management.
