Dynamic Quorum Models
Dynamic Quorum Models are governance structures where the required participation threshold automatically adjusts based on the importance or potential impact of the proposal. For routine maintenance or minor parameter changes, the quorum might be set low to ensure the protocol remains responsive.
Conversely, for major protocol upgrades or changes to core economic parameters, the quorum is automatically increased to ensure a broad mandate. This approach provides a flexible governance framework that adapts to the needs of the situation, preventing both stagnation and hasty, under-voted decisions.
By using on-chain data to categorize proposals, these models automate the enforcement of security standards and ensure that critical changes are only made with significant community backing.
