ENS DAO Constitution proposal was published few hours ago and it's already the largest proposal by votes on Snapshot with an impressive 42,362 votes (8m $ENS ~290m$) 🤯
One of the hardest things in DAOs is to get in touch with all the relevant tokenholders when a proposal goes up.
We might have a solution to this coming up with

Shutter DAO 0x36 has been successfully deployed, which means genesis allocations for $SHU are now claimable!
The genesis allocation is a targeted, small allocation specifically for early community members and users of Shutter protocols & solutions. The Shutter Token, $SHU, is…
Today, we're highlighting
@Galxe
🚀 - a protocol that powers on-chain credentials with plug-and-play
#NFT
modules! It's a permissionless infrastructure that allows you to create, distribute, and gamify NFTs with custom on-chain data. 🎮
This will provide similar security guarantees to what you get with a voting framework on layer 1 for just a fraction of the cost. We estimate that the cost for a vote would be around 1,000 gas, about 50x to 100x times cheaper than on Ethereum mainnet.
Another summer weekend for those above the Equator 🌞
DAOs don't stop for the summer though. If you're participating in your favorite DAO on vacation from somewhere sunny, send us a picture!
Shielded voting is the best way to make sure that previous voters' choices don't influence the decision of the next ones. And it's really easy to add to your own space!
Head to the privacy setting and select Shutter to enable it on your next proposal🥷
Very happy to see that

Snapshot has applied to RPGF round 2!
⚡️Snapshot has been used both by the Optimism Collective and 64 projects on OP to facilitate governance.
💸All of these services have been provided for free.
🗳️In total, more than 1 million votes have been cast on OP by around 100k voters!
Optimism’s vision is to build a global system where positive impact to the collective is rewarded by profit to the individual. RetroPGF is an experimental mechanism to realize this goal of “impact = profit.”
Today, voting for RetroPGF round 2 begins 🌞
Some DAOs are experimenting with fixed days for proposals.
For example, proposals go up on Sunday and last until Thursday.
The advantage? You can check governance once a week and make sure you never miss a thing!
Is your governance token on multiple chains?
Do you wish everyone could vote, whatever chain they're on? No problem there!
You can add up to 8 erc20 token strategies, and specify the chosen network of each of these tokens!
Multichain governance has never been easier 😎
Here are some of the reasons your DAO should be excited about Snapshot X:
Trustless execution: Execute transactions on-chain without any human or oracle input.

What are the issues of decentralized governance?
With 581 DAOs projects and over 16,246 proposals under the microscope, a new scientific paper has identified important problems of DAO governance and how to solve them.
Here are the top 5 ↓
Multichain governance works out of the box on Snapshot. If your token is on several chains, just add a voting strategy for each. No second-class tokenholders here!
