We’re proud to have built YieldNest’s newly launched governance system purpose-built for incentive alignment, value accrual, and long-term protocol growth.

From June 30,2025, the latest version of the Aragon app will replace earlier versions of the app, ensuring all builders have seamless access to top features for designing adaptable and modular governance right out of the box. A new chapter for onchain organizations Decentralization has the potential to transform

You can now seamlessly add any EVM address as governance bodies to your organization on Aragon, in just a few clicks.

For many onchain organizations, governance and value creation have historically existed in parallel, but not in sync. Token holders vote, yes, but does that governance translate into sustainable growth, aligned incentives, or capital efficiency? Not always. Aragon’s veLocker + Gauge primitives, part of the Value Accrual Toolkit, are designed to

Discover our powerful suite of modularized tokenomic primitives designed to help onchain organizations align incentives at every layer: governance, treasury management, to liquidity growth.

Onchain organizations have proven their ability to attract resources at extraordinary speed and scale, creating the potential for unprecedented value creation. Realizing that potential depends on the ability to sustainably align stakeholder incentives. Most have fallen short. Onchain organizations have been relying on systems where decision-making is decoupled from economic

We’re enabling this next generation of onchain organizations by focusing on two key areas: value creation and value distribution.

The future of DePIN governance is decentralized. Now, you can launch your DAO on peaq, the layer-1 powering the Machine Economy, with the modular Aragon OSx protocol, and soon on the next version of the Aragon App.  We’re thrilled to announce that Aragon DAOs are now deployable on peaq,

By connecting governance, incentives, and value accrual, you can build a system that supports long-term growth and sustainability.

As DAOs adopt new governance models, their interfaces need to evolve to support the smart contracts.

There is no use in making DAOs unstoppable if they stop organizations from being effective.

We’re excited to announce the decentralization and security-focused onchain governance design of the Taiko DAO. This milestone marks a significant step forward in Taiko’s governance roadmap to fully decentralized protocol governance. TLDR:  * Optimistic governance model, where token holders have onchain veto rights; * Security Council that can efficiently and

Mode became the first L2 to introduce vote escrow (ve) and gauge-based governance to its ecosystem—modernizing a long-standing governance model implemented by successful DeFi protocols. In Season 3, the Governance Games incentivized community members to stake tokens for increased voting power, directing rewards to protocols via gauges. The results

Kim implemented a vote escrow (ve) and gauges governance model. This approach ensures aligned incentives, reduces coordination overhead, and accelerates network growth.

Monolithic governance frameworks are holding back protocols. Modularity will solve this.
