To achieve decentralized governance and healthier development of the Conflux Network, we believe that the formation of the DAO is critical not only for the future of the network but also for the benefit of every staking member in the community.

Along with the community, the Conflux Foundation will continue to explore the governance methods of the DAO. Conflux is prepared for its first vote on governance which includes but is not limited to improving user experience, enhancing network efficiency, and modulating CFX circulation. Every CFX or FC holder has the right to vote, and the vote weight depends on the duration of their pledges.

Based on the outcomes of the vote, Conflux Network will release an upgrade which will also be an experiment to ensure that every CFX or FC holder is entitled to give suggestions on the future iteration and upgrading of the Conflux Network without the participation of the Conflux team. As a result, more people will get to participate in the Conflux governance.

The calculation rules are not one-size-fits-all rules, and wholly automatic governance cannot lead to a healthy mechanism. We believe that certain institutionalization methods and some concepts in social science can assist us with establishing and managing a well-grown DAO and Conflux Network.
