Proposal

tl;dr

Reduce the Threshold Governor Bravo Voting Period from 9 days to 7 days by updating the votingPeriod from 66,461 blocks → 50,000 blocks.

Background

Threshold DAO governance uses Governor Bravo, which defines voting delay, voting period, quorum, and execution rules.

The current voting period is 9 days, as confirmed on-chain via votingPeriod() = 66461 blocks.

A 9-day voting duration slows governance execution and extends proposal cycles unnecessarily. Moving to a 7-day period improves DAO responsiveness while maintaining a widely recognized minimum timeframe for decentralized participation.

Proposal

This proposal updates the Governor Bravo voting period as follows:

  • Old value: 66,461 blocks (~9 days)
  • New value: 50,000 blocks (~7 days)

This change:

  • Reduces the total governance cycle by two days
  • Maintains broad accessibility for voters
  • Aligns Threshold more closely with standard DAO governance timing
  • Requires no new contracts or permissions

Transaction

The Governor Bravo contract will execute a single administrative call:

  1. Update Voting Period
    • Contract: Governor Bravo (0xd101f2b25bcbf992bdf55db67c104fe7646f5447)
    • Method: setVotingPeriod(uint256 newVotingPeriod)
    • New value: 50000

Notes

  • This proposal modifies only the voting period; all other governance parameters remain unchanged.
  • The 7-day duration preserves decentralization while enabling more agile DAO decision-making.
