[PRESS RELEASE – Dubai, UAE, July 30th, 2024]
BNB Chain, the community-driven blockchain ecosystem that includes the world’s largest smart contract blockchain, has announced significant upgrades to its governance process following the BC Fusion. These enhancements aim to boost the network’s efficiency, transparency, and community engagement, advancing BNB Chain’s vision to support startups and developers in achieving real business success and reaching mainstream adoption, all while fulfilling the ecosystem’s mission of onboarding the next billion Web3 users.
BNB Chain Governance is a collective decision-making system overseeing on-chain operations and implementing network changes. This system ensures decisions regarding upgrades, security, and community initiatives are made collectively and transparently, directly on the blockchain.
The upgraded proposal introduces a two-step proposal process. First, a “temperature check” on Snapshot lets BNB holders gauge community support for a proposal. If endorsed, it progresses to formal voting on the Tally platform, where validators and stakers vote to approve or reject the proposal. Users can follow these steps to vote on a live proposal.
This revamped approach enhances transparency, adaptability, and engagement. It enables direct BNB staker involvement in governance, promotes efficient resource use, and drives continuous innovation. Stakers can also delegate their voting power, and the temperature check phase facilitates early discussion on governance matters.
Proposals can address system upgrades, bug fixes, policy changes, and more. By leveraging on-chain governance, BNB Chain ensures all decisions are transparent, verifiable, and community-approved, reinforcing its commitment to network efficiency and security. By leveraging on-chain governance, BNB Chain ensures that all decisions are transparent, verifiable, and subject to community approval.
