Thanks to @jengajojo_daoplomats for bringing up the idea of increasing the quorum, this is something we’ve also noticed and mentioned in our own proposal.
As highlighted in the forum post:
This kind of imbalance clearly shows the risk of the current 2% quorum, it’s simply too low and doesn’t reflect the growing size and influence of the ParaSwap DAO.
We support increasing the quorum to 8% to ensure that governance decisions are backed by a broader and more representative base of token holders.
Additionally, we’d like to suggest a further refinement:
Different quorum thresholds for different proposal types for example, one for the Core Governor and another for the Treasury Governor.
This would ensure that more critical or sensitive proposals (like those affecting treasury funds) have a higher minimum participation requirement.
We believe this would lead to a more secure, accountable, and community-driven governance process.
