Governance Overview

The Cosmos Hub ("Gaia") has an on-chain governance mechanism for signaling, changing consensus parameters, and spending funds from the community pool.

This repository provides background information on these different kinds of proposals and best-practices for drafting them and proposing them on-chain.

Community

Cosmos governance is driven by the Cosmos community, and much of the documentation in this repo was funded by the community fund itself in Proposal 23 (opens new window) and Proposal 63 (opens new window). Governance discussions happens in a number of places moderated by diverse community members, including:

• Forum (opens new window)
• Discord (opens new window)
• Twitter (opens new window)
• Reddit (opens new window)
• anywhere else you might interact with members of the Cosmos community!
