Proposal Repository

Last Update: February 2023

Beefy is governed by and for our Cowmoonity through our governance process. Any user can submit a Beefy Improvement Proposal (BIP), Beefy Signalling Proposal (BSP), request for funds or other general proposal for consideration and voting by the Cowmoonity.

This page lists some of the most important proposals from our history, together with links to the full proposal text and results. The list focuses on key initiatives, governance changes, product developments and events in our history. Common matters like individual payments, bounties and partnerships are generally excluded. The page also includes a list of significant proposals that did not receive approval, to inform those considering raising similar issues in the future.

At the end of 2021, Beefy transitioned from a custom Snapshot fork running exclusively on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) to a modern instance of Snapshot, capable of supporting each of Beefy's chains. As a result of the transition, proposals ending before the start of 2022 were not carried forward to the new site. Instead, an archived copy of the original site has been preserved. This page consolidate the two sites, and provide a seamless history of governance at Beefy.

Note that access to the archived Beefy voting site is available at https://vote-archive.beefy.finance/. The archived site requires users to connect their wallet to both the site and the BSC Mainnet to display historic proposals. The current voting site is available live at https://vote.beefy.finance/#/.

Signalling Proposals

Beefy Signaling Proposals (BSPs) are non-binding proposals intended to signal the Cowmoonity’s feelings and intentions on the issue being raised, without tying the DAO to the outcome. This allows members to express their views honestly, without concern for tactical voting or the practicalities of implementation.

In theory, a clear outcome in favour of change should be a strong signal to the Core to pursue the change independently. Where the Core refuses or fails to deliver on that signal, a binding Beefy Improvement Proposal can be used instead. Alternatively, a strong signal against proposed changes should quieten pressure for those changes amongst the Cowmoonity, at least for the near future.
