This is the inaugural on-chain vote for Hop Protocol governance. It consists of a bundle of eight proposals that successfully passed a Snapshot temperature check, and initiated by six different authors. Several proposals (HIPs 3, 4, and 7) authorize the community multisig to disburse funds. There is currently ample funding in that address, and no new HOP is required from the protocol at this time.
Please refer to the linked Snapshot poll and forum discussion for the full language of each proposal rather than relying on the brief description here.
The full list of proposals bundled for this vote are:
HIP 0: Hop Mission Statement and Success Framework HIP 1: Deploy a HOP Bridge HIP 2: Explore Private Sale Legal Options HIP 3: Governance Incentives Fast bridging support for SNX and sUSD HIP 4: Delegate Incentivization Trial HIP 6: Deploy a HOP bridge on Arbitrum Nova HIP 7: AMM and Bonder Liquidity Incentives
These proposals were all bundled together because they 1) passed overwhelmingly in Snapshot polls, 2) have no immediate on-chain executable component that could present technical risk, 3) collectively created a large backlog of governance initiatives to bring to a final vote.
Snapshot is a great tool to quickly and affordably (freely) poll token holders. However, it is not meant to set policy for the DAO. All governance must occur on-chain.
Generally, GFX Labs does not support the bundling of proposals. Experience suggests it leads to low engagement and haphazard due diligence by voters. In this case, however, the bundling was deemed appropriate due to the low risk and high consensus already mentioned.
If this proposal fails, GFX Labs will separate out those components it feels are most important and least controversial, and prioritize those for narrower votes.
