The Protocol Is Yours.
Here’s How to Use It.
VaultX is governed entirely on-chain by VLT token holders. No company, no team veto, no central authority. Every protocol parameter — from fee rates to treasury allocation — is decided by the community.
How Governance Works
Draft a Proposal
Any holder of 10,000+ VLT can draft a Vault Improvement Proposal (VIP) on the governance forum. Community discussion runs for at least 3 days before on-chain submission.
Submit On-Chain
The proposal is submitted on-chain with a $5,000 VLT deposit to prevent spam. The deposit is fully returned upon proposal execution.
Vote
Voting is open for 7 days. Each VLT = 1 vote. Proposals need 4% quorum and >50% approval to pass. Delegation is fully supported for passive holders.
Execute
Approved proposals enter a 48-hour timelock before execution — giving the community time to exit if they disagree with the outcome.
