Aragon Releases Product Digest Highlighting Private Voting and Permissions Features
đź”’ Aragon's governance evolution
Aragon published its latest product digest covering major developments from last month focused on enhancing organizational governance tools.
Key Features Highlighted:
- Private voting integration with zkMACI for confidential onchain decision-making
- Permissions-based access control allowing precise function-level permissions without coding
- Improved app experience with cleaner user flows
These updates represent three months of major launches building toward a modular system for running organizations entirely onchain. The private voting feature addresses issues like bribery, retaliation, and whale pressure that have historically skewed governance outcomes.
The permissions system enables organizations to grant specific governance processes exactly the functions they need through a simple interface, eliminating the need for Solidity knowledge or contract redeployments.
Private voting is now part of the Aragon stack. Demo-ready today, rolling out first via bespoke builds. Transparency where it matters. Privacy where it’s critical. Learn how private, zk-verified voting is becoming reality with Aragon × @zkMACI ↴ blog.aragon.org/private-onchai…
Permissions-Based Access Control is live in the Aragon App! Grant each governance process exactly the functions it needs. No Solidity, no redeploys, just clicks.

Three months, three major launches. Every new feature plugging straight into the stack: → Private voting → Permissions-based Access Control → External addresses The result? A modular system for running orgs entirely onchain.
Most tools force orgs into a single “all-powerful” contract. Aragon’s modular stack flips that script: → Split powers across councils, votes, and roles → Configure without code → Evolve over time, without starting over Governance, built to adapt: aragon.org
From private voting with @zkMACI to permissions-based access control and a cleaner app experience, last month was about unlocking the full power of OSx for the orgs building tomorrow’s world. Catch up on everything new in the latest product digest: blog.aragon.org/product-digest…
🛡️ Ethereum Foundation Vaults Get Guardian Protection
The **Ethereum Foundation's vaults** on Morpho Labs are now secured by **Aragon OSx guardians**, marking a significant step toward trustless financial infrastructure. **Key developments:** - Trustless guardians now protect Ethereum Foundation assets - Integration strengthens onchain governance capabilities - Builds on previous adoption by digital asset managers from Tokyo and Seoul This milestone represents another advancement in **verifiable onchain infrastructure**, providing transparent and immutable governance controls for major crypto organizations. The guardian system offers stakeholders direct, trustless oversight of vault operations through decentralized governance mechanisms.

Aragon Introduces Custom Proposal Types for DAOs
Aragon app now enables organizations to create customized proposal types for different governance needs. Key features include: - Specialized flows for treasury, grants, upgrades, and membership - Configurable voting thresholds and multi-stage approvals - Veto windows and timelocks - Role-based permissions The modular system allows organizations to implement tailored governance without coding. Each proposal type can have unique parameters and workflows, moving beyond one-size-fits-all solutions. *Try it now at* [app.aragon.org](https://app.aragon.org)
Aragon Launches Value Accrual Toolkit with veTokens and Gauges
Aragon has introduced its Value Accrual Toolkit, featuring two key components: - **veLocker System**: Implements time-weighted voting power through token locking, encouraging long-term commitment - **Gauges**: Enables token holders to direct capital allocation and emissions through voting The toolkit aims to bridge the gap between governance and value creation in onchain organizations. Key features include: - Customizable lock durations and voting power - Resource allocation across predefined categories - KPI-based payouts and bribe markets - Analytics and optimization tools Currently managing $35B+ in assets across 10,000+ organizations.

Inside the Aragon App: The Governance Designer
Aragon has launched a no-code governance designer that transforms how DAOs manage their operations. The tool features: - Visual drag-and-drop interface for creating custom governance flows - Support for multiple proposal types (upgrades, treasury, grants) - Configurable multi-stage processes with roles and permissions - Customizable timelocks and approval thresholds This solution bridges the gap between simple token voting and expensive custom contracts, enabling organizations to deploy adaptable governance systems without technical complexity.
