Governance
Project Updates / Announcements
We are working on transferring our partner $CODE tokens to Gitcoin as defined in our original token proposal. We will be moving the tokens over a period of time to allow Gitcoin to be active members in our governance process, while not commanding too much of the voting power.
We are evaluating tooling such as Aragon and Hats Protocol to make our governance process easier to participate in.
