👨‍👩‍👦Governance

The Onyx protocol is governed and upgraded by XCN token-holders, using four distinct components; the XCN token, staking, governance module (Governor Alpha), and Timelock. Together, these contracts allow the community to propose, vote, and implement changes through the administrative functions of a oToken or the Comptroller. Proposals can include changes like adjusting an interest rate model, to adding support for a new asset.

Any address with more than 100,000,000 XCN vote weight may propose governance actions, which are executable code. When a proposal is created, the community can submit their votes during a 3 day voting period. If a majority, and at least 200,000,000 votes are cast for the proposal, it is queued in the Timelock, and can be implemented after 2 days.

Staking XCN

To get voting power, XCN should be staked. Withdrawing XCN from staking automatically adjust the voting rights.
