DAO Governance Tracker: On-Chain Proposals and Votes

Which DAO proposals are live right now, and how are the votes going?

Live and recent on-chain DAO proposals: votes cast, quorum progress, voting power and whether each passed and was executed.

The dashboard as it will open in Vantage. Each figure is named here and arrives with its receipt; until its data is published, its place stays empty.

Live votes

Proposals open for voting now and how each one stands.

About

What it answers, and for whom.

This tracker lists the on-chain proposals open right now across major DAO governors, and how each vote stands: votes for, against and abstaining, progress toward quorum and when voting ends. Recent proposals show whether they passed, were queued in a timelock and were executed.

It reads the governor contracts themselves: the voting power each voter held at the proposal's snapshot block and the events emitted when a proposal is created, a vote is cast and a proposal is queued or executed. Off-chain signalling votes are not included, because they are not recorded on a chain.

Use it to follow a vote that matters to you, to see which delegates are deciding it or to check that a passed proposal was actually executed. Every count names the governor, the proposal and the blocks it was read at.

Method

How it will be measured.

Every figure will be read at a block, kept with its source and its exact read, and open a receipt anyone can re-check.

How receipts work →
  1. Proposals and votes come from governor events: ProposalCreated, VoteCast, ProposalQueued, ProposalExecuted and ProposalCanceled for OpenZeppelin Governor and GovernorBravo contracts, plus the equivalent events of Aave Governance v3.
  2. Voting power is the weight in each VoteCast event, checked against getPastVotes at the proposal's snapshot block; quorum is the governor's quorum() at that block, or quorumVotes() on GovernorBravo.
  3. A proposal's state follows the governor's own state(): pending, active, canceled, defeated, succeeded, queued, expired or executed.
  4. Covered DAOs come from a registry of governor and timelock contracts, each recorded with its chain and source; off-chain votes are outside this tracker.

Questions

Questions people ask.

What is on-chain governance?

Governance in which proposals and votes are transactions to a governor contract, and a passed proposal executes its own calls, usually through a timelock. The result is enforced by the chain rather than by a team acting on an off-chain vote.

What is quorum in a DAO vote?

The minimum voting power that must take part, or vote in favor, for a proposal's result to count. Governors define it in their quorum() function, often as a share of token supply at the snapshot block.

Why are off-chain votes not shown?

Many DAOs hold signalling votes on off-chain platforms, where votes are signed messages rather than transactions. They are not recorded on a chain, so they cannot carry a block receipt here; this tracker covers on-chain votes only.

What happens after a DAO proposal passes?

In most governors a passed proposal is first queued in a timelock, which delays execution so users can react. Once the delay ends, anyone can execute it. The tracker shows each step with the transaction that made it.

Who can vote in a DAO?

Holders of the governance token, or the delegates they have chosen. Voting power is fixed at the proposal's snapshot block, so tokens bought after a vote starts carry no weight in it.

Governor
A contract that accepts proposals, counts votes and executes the calls of the proposals that pass.
Delegate
An address that votes with the voting power other holders have assigned to it.
Snapshot block
The block at which voting power is measured for a proposal.
Timelock
A contract that holds a passed proposal for a set delay before it can be executed.
