Governance

You can view and vote on governance proposals from Namadillo. Detailed information on how the governance system works at the protocol-level can be found here.

Governance Info

By selecting 'Governance' from the left sidebar of Namadillo (see below), you can get an overview of current, upcoming, and past governance proposals. By clicking on a listed proposal, you can bring up further details about that proposal. proposal-overview

Voting on Goverance Proposals

Remember that your voting power is equal to your staked tokens (not your total balance)! If you haven't staked any tokens, you will not be able to vote on any governance proposals. See the section on Staking for instructions on how to stake tokens.

Follow these steps to vote on governance proposals using Namadillo:

Select proposal

From the main Governance page, click on the "Ongoing" proposal you wish to vote on to bring up the proposal details (below).

proposal-details Proposal detail view

In this view, you can see:

  1. The proposal title and ID
  2. The type of proposal, and -- if any -- the attached WASM code. (The pictured proposal is 'Default' type and has no WASM code, meaning it is text-only)
  3. The time remaining in the voting period
  4. The proposal abstract and description (Click 'Show More' to see the full desctiption)
  5. Proposal details such as the proposing address and the voting start, end, and activation epochs
  6. The current vote tally and turnout

Submit your vote

Click the 'Vote' button (7, in the above image). A pop-up dialog will ask you how you wish to vote -- 'yay', 'nay', or 'abstain' -- select your vote and click 'Confirm'. The Keychain browser extension will show you another popup prompting you to confirm the signing of your transaction by entering your account password. After entering your password, your vote transaction will be submitted to the chain. Namadillo will display a small info box in the top right corner of the page to show that your transaction is being processed and, after roughly 10 seconds, whether it was accepted. vote1 Voting transaction dialogs
