A new approval process, where most Optimism proposals will auto-pass unless a stakeholder vetoes, will come into force on Aug. 1 to reduce the burden on contributors.
Ethereum layer-2 scaling solution Optimism is set to update its governance system for the second time this year — this time, with the intent of becoming more decentralized.
In a blog post on Friday, the Optimism team said the changes taking effect Aug. 1 as part of the “Season 8” revamp will introduce stakeholder voting, a public definition of citizenship and an auto-pass process for proposals.
“The goal has always been to create a governance model designed for a new internet; now we understand that means lowering platform risk by creating accountability where corporate governance models have failed to do so,” the team said.
