Rocket Pool's Governance System Sets New Standards for DAOs
Rocket Pool has established itself as a leader in DAO governance through three key features: - **Permissionless Decision-Making**: Anyone can participate in governance - **Robust Voting Mechanism**: Quadratic voting power tied to staked $RPL - **Decentralized Onchain Execution**: Automated implementation of decisions The protocol's governance design protects against centralization by requiring node operators to stake $RPL for voting power. This approach aligns with Ethereum's core values and helps maintain network decentralization. *Recent activation of onchain governance marks a significant milestone in Rocket Pool's evolution toward becoming one of the most resilient DAOs in the ecosystem.*
