![Accelerate Token Governance](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex032/uploads/softdao/original/2X/f/f76577c8cc477f2aea27fb0548219ac8c412717a.jpeg)

# WHAT

In order for Soft DAO token holder governance to function effectively, some key actions need to occur. Such actions are discussed — and in some cases, already approved — in previous discussions.

Of course, running multiple votes on-chain can be expensive. Therefore we, propose bundling all of the key actions into a single vote on-chain.

# HOW

In consideration of the above, we propose that Soft DAO takes the following actions:

### Retroactive $SOFT pay to Community Leaders/Ambassadors

As discussed in the proposal [Retroactive Pay for Community Leaders and Ambassadors](https://forum.thesoftdao.com/t/retroactive-pay-for-community-leaders-and-ambassadors/10585), approval of this proposal would fund two additional months of retroactive SOFT compensation to our Community Leaders and Ambassadors, who have worked hard to keep the DAO community running. These two months of pay covers time worked before their compensation was activated.

These funds will be sent to the [Community Leaders and Ambassadors SOFT distributor](https://etherscan.io/address/0xcc43C4B63d5602C3dD7d6FF1C382a0354e51Fb05), and will be claimable immediately.

**Community Leaders and Ambassadors SOFT Distributor:** [0xcc43C4B63d5602C3dD7d6FF1C382a0354e51Fb05](https://etherscan.io/address/0xcc43C4B63d5602C3dD7d6FF1C382a0354e51Fb05)

### Send USDT to Community Leaders & Ambassadors Distributor

Recently, the [Launch Token Governance](https://forum.thesoftdao.com/t/launch-token-governance/10209) proposal was approved via multi-sig, and it included both USDT and SOFT compensation for our Community Leaders & Ambassadors.

Therefore, we now propose sending 42,000 USDT to the [Community Leaders & Ambassadors USDT Distributor](https://etherscan.io/address/0xe78f2fA272745ebcE1602337DA628bBCcfB3CBDb).

**This will cover a total of 14 months of work as follows:**

12 months worth of work, as approved in [Launch Token Governance](https://forum.thesoftdao.com/t/launch-token-governance/10209)

2 months worth, as discussed in [Retroactive Pay For Community Leaders and Ambassadors](https://forum.thesoftdao.com/t/retroactive-pay-for-community-leaders-and-ambassadors/10585)

**Community Leaders & Ambassadors Distributor:** [0xe78f2fA272745ebcE1602337DA628bBCcfB3CBDb](https://etherscan.io/address/0xe78f2fA272745ebcE1602337DA628bBCcfB3CBDb)

### Send USDT to KomaRick and Kir.OS

This is one-time compensation to KomaRick and Kir.OS for their early contributions to the community, as approved in [Launch Token Governance](https://forum.thesoftdao.com/t/launch-token-governance/10209). Just as with the item above, the multi-sig that approved Launch Token Governance could not send USDT.

Therefore, if this proposal is approved, it will fulfill the proposal that the multi-sig approved earlier and send one-time payments of 600 USDT each to KomaRick and Kir.OS.

These funds will be sent to a new [one-time payment distributor](https://etherscan.io/address/0x617a51a0203c555c749131c4c3aec9a6f942c7db), and will be claimable immediately.

**One-Time Payment Distributor:** [0x617a51a0203c555c749131c4c3aec9a6f942c7db](https://etherscan.io/address/0x617a51a0203c555c749131c4c3aec9a6f942c7db)

### Add Voting Power from Distributors

A proposal called [Initiate Voting While Vesting](https://forum.thesoftdao.com/t/initiate-voting-while-vesting/10541) was recently published in Soft DAO forums. As discussed there, if this proposal is approved, voting while vesting will be activated by calling the `setVoteSources` function in the [Governor contract.](https://etherscan.io/address/0x0ADd6d42bBfe6c40e15B02A2C8A1b81B36a2B326)

Specifically, the proposal will call:

```jsx
governor.setVoteSources(
  0xf266195e1b30b8f536834303c555bd6aaf063f04,
  0x7CCb139707d69571aF1a53C1EDa47165c8733F30,
  0x1c4Fa9Ff73EEcF0b32DaE948a6aB9f716b39a754,
  0xad8F05420F7d988CE63eb9bDeCCE86518fE59E07
)

```

to provide voting power through the following distributors:

- **SoftDrop** (`0xf266195e1b30b8f536834303c555bd6aaf063f04`)
- **Launch Supporters - Timelock** (`0x7CCb139707d69571aF1a53C1EDa47165c8733F30`)
- **Launch Supporters - Pricelock** (`0x1c4Fa9Ff73EEcF0b32DaE948a6aB9f716b39a754`)
- **Early Dev Bounties & Ops** (`0xad8F05420F7d988CE63eb9bDeCCE86518fE59E07`)

### Change Owner of Zealy (Crew3) $SOFT Incentives Distributor

This is necessary because currently, an on-chain vote is required to upgrade the [$SOFT incentives distributor contract](https://etherscan.io/address/0xf56cF1e1Cb4Ef68efDee10cbE89aA7B15Ac33722) (for example, to add the rewards winners’ addresses each month). If approved, this proposal will change ownership of the Zealy (formerly called Crew3) $SOFT incentives distributor to the [community multi-sig](https://etherscan.io/address/0x72E643c162839d6EE470Bba5821CA2460760337a).

**$SOFT Incentives Distributor:** [0xf56cF1e1Cb4Ef68efDee10cbE89aA7B15Ac33722](https://etherscan.io/address/0xf56cF1e1Cb4Ef68efDee10cbE89aA7B15Ac33722)

**Community Multi-Sig:** [0x72E643c162839d6EE470Bba5821CA2460760337a](https://etherscan.io/address/0x72E643c162839d6EE470Bba5821CA2460760337a)

### Add latest incentives to Crew3 SOFT Distributor

In addition to changing ownership of the Crew3/Zealy $SOFT incentives, this proposal will add the winners’ addresses for sprints ending 01 March, 01 April, 01 May, and 01 June.

Moving forward, the Community Leaders & Ambassadors will be responsible for updating the contract’s merkle root to distribute incentives each month.

Accelerating token governance can be beneficial for a decentralized autonomous organization like Soft DAO. Here are a few potential thoughts on this topic:

1. Clear and Efficient Decision-Making Processes: To accelerate token governance, it’s crucial to establish clear and efficient decision-making processes. This includes defining the roles and responsibilities of token holders, establishing voting mechanisms, and implementing transparent governance frameworks. Streamlining these processes can help expedite decision-making and ensure that the community’s voice is heard promptly.
2. Delegated Voting and Proxy Systems: Delegated voting and proxy systems can enhance the speed of token governance. These mechanisms allow token holders to delegate their voting power to trusted representatives or use proxy voting to streamline decision-making. By delegating voting power, token holders can participate even if they are unable to actively vote on every proposal, enabling faster decision outcomes.
3. Proposal Prioritization and Categorization: Implementing a system to prioritize and categorize proposals can help accelerate token governance. By categorizing proposals based on urgency, impact, or other relevant factors, the community can focus on addressing critical matters first. This approach ensures that important decisions are made promptly, preventing delays and improving overall governance efficiency.
