Building the future of polygon governance

At Aragon, we are proud to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Polygon governance by strengthening governance pillars with end-to-end governance solutions, from protocol governance contracts to community-driven governance hubs.

Having been building Polygon for a long time, we are excited to empower our community with a unified, seamless governance experience that is secure, transparent, and adaptable. By leveraging the power of Aragon OSx, our modular governance framework, we are creating a governance solution that is as dynamic and innovative as the Polygon environment itself.

Our role in building the Polygon Governance Hub

The Governance Hub is set up as a home for community-driven decision-making for the Polygon aggregate blockchain network and other network architectures. Our modular governance framework, Aragon OSx, and custom development services make this vision a reality.

Governance Hub leverages the security of a smart contract framework, the flexibility of custom-developed solutions, and a human-centered design system to foster a unified, seamless experience and engage the entire community in a multi-level governance process.

Why Aragon OSx?

Aragon OSx, the next-generation modular governance framework, is optimized for customization and adaptability. Its plug-in-based architecture allows you to safely and efficiently customize governance contracts, making it ideal for complex governance structures. Here’s how Aragon OSx supports custom governance solutions for Polygon.

• security: Governance contracts secure the protocol through fine-grained permission management and custom processes.
• modularity: Our framework supports a wide range of governance models through customizable and interchangeable plugins, enabling multi-agency and multi-level governance.
• adaptability: Plugins can be installed securely through the governance process, allowing the governance hub to evolve with the growth of the community.

Features of Polygon Governance Hub

Custom UI templates and an open governance design system integrate all steps of Polygon governance into one intuitive interface. Human-centered design ensures that all community members, regardless of technical expertise, can participate in the governance process. This integrated platform includes:

• dashboard: A unified overview that allows members to check the latest updates for each section of the Governance Hub in one place.
• Members and Delegates: A list of community members and representatives who promote transparency and accountability.
• multi-level proposal: Unified interface to track and discuss proposals through multiple stages, from initial discussion to on-chain execution:
  • Proposals are initiated and discussed on GitHub and forums, and are displayed directly on the proposals page.
  • Once the discussion is over, the protocol committee creates an on-chain proposal.
  • It will then be automatically populated for the community to voice their approval or disapproval.
  • After listening to the community, the security committee executes the transaction.
• resource: A library of governance-related resources to educate and inform the community, including the proposal writing process and protocol committee agreements.

the way forward

Your journey with Polygon has just begun. As long-time contributors to the Polygon community, we are committed to empowering the community with a governance platform for transparent and inclusive decision-making. At each milestone, we will ask the community to provide meaningful feedback so that the Governance Hub can evolve to meet the needs of the community.

The future of protocol governance is here. The modular framework allows any project to implement a governance model tailored to its unique needs. We are proud to work with the Polygon community to advance new secure, community-driven governance solutions to lead the industry into a more decentralized future.

Stay tuned for further updates as we continue to build the Polygon Governance Hub.
