Proposal: Rewards distribution for Epoch 31

Vote: FOR

Rationale: We have reviewed the information provided in the proposal and used the valuable verification tool to confirm that everything is in order and aligned with expectations. Therefore, we vote in favor of proceeding with the proposed fee distribution for Epoch 31.




Proposal: Gas Refunds distribution for Epoch 31

Vote: FOR

Rationale: We also checked the gas refund distribution files and everything is in order.

Proposal: PIP-65 - Enhancing Predictability in VeloraDAO Governance

Vote: ADOPT ONLY HOLIDAY BREAK

Rationale: We support and vote in favor only of establishing the Holiday break, as activity within the DAO significantly decreases between December 24 and January 6 due to Christmas and New Year celebrations. During this time, many people are either spending time with their families or traveling for the holidays, so we see value in formally recognizing this period as a break for the DAO, consistent with practices in other governances. If an urgent matter arises that requires prompt action even during this timeframe, the PEP mechanism remains in place and is explicitly exempt from this restriction.

But we are voting against the rest of the options, and below we explain our rationale:

  • Extension of the voting period to 7 days: We do not support this change, as extending the current voting window by two days lacks solid justification. The DAO has never encountered issues related to voting duration — especially now, when participation levels have increased significantly. For this reason, we believe the current 5-day voting period is appropriate and sufficient for both tokenholders and delegates to cast their votes.
  • Maintain a Monday–Friday voting window and implement a holiday break: We also disagree with the idea of setting a fixed day for submitting proposals to Snapshot:
    • Initially, the previous PIP framework approved by PSP-IPΔ33 required proposals to go live on Thursdays. However, this rigid rule proved problematic and was more harmful than helpful. That’s why in our approved proposal in January 2025 ‘PIP Lifecycle Improvements’, we explicitly removed this requirement and allowed proposals to be submitted on any day of the week. We remain consistent with that decision, which was made by the DAO less than six months ago. We do not believe it is healthy to change this again and return to a system similar to the previous one six months after approval when there are no solid reasons to justify it.
    • Establishing a fixed date for submitting proposals to snapshot generates a rigidity that may lead to undesired results, such as if a proposal is debated in the forum for the necessary time, ending the debate on a Monday or Tuesday for example, it will have to wait all week until next Monday to be submitted to snapshot, which generates an unjustified delay in a proposal that is ready to be voted on and prolongs the decision making process for several days more.
    • We agree with other delegates that it’s preferable to avoid voting periods that fall over weekends, but we believe this can be encouraged through informal community consensus, not enforced as a rigid rule. Some proponents may have valid reasons for starting a vote on any given day, and we should retain that flexibility.

Proposal: PIP-66 - Deprecation of the Governance Committee

Vote: FOR

Rationale: We vote in favor of this proposal, of which we are co-authors, as we believe that the GovCo — which once played a very important role — has lost its purpose due to the automation of fee and gas refund calculation and distribution.
Additionally, this proposal represents another step forward in decentralizing the DAO by transferring the last two remaining responsibilities previously held by GovCo: determining whether a proposal qualifies as a PIP and managing the Fee Claimer wallet multisig on Ethereum. These responsibilities, which were previously centralized, will now be handled under a clear and predictable decentralized framework.
Finally, this proposal will result in an annual cost saving of $60,000 USD for the DAO.

Proposal: PIP-67: Project Miro - Deployment of VLR on BSC

Vote: FOR

Rationale: We support this proposal, as according to DeFiLlama, BSC ranks third in DeFi TVL, first in 24-hour DEX volume, and fifth in Bridged TVL. In other words, it is one of the most active blockchains, making it completely reasonable to deploy VLR there. Moreover, this proposal brings no cost to the DAO, as it simply reallocates treasury-owned funds, which can be returned fully or partially if needed.

Proposal: Rewards distribution for Epoch 32

Vote: FOR

Rationale We have checked with the verification tool provided and everything seems to be in order, so we vote in favor of proceeding with the Epoch 32 distribution of the fees as proposed.

Proposal: Gas Refunds distribution for Epoch 32

Vote: FOR

Rationale We have verified the gas refund calculations and everything seems right, so we vote in favor.
