It’s Devconnect, let’s connect!
Goverland is landing in Argentina to meet everybody and talk about governance. Want to make delegates accountable? Want to fight voter apathy? We’re here to help.
Drop a DM or comment here and let’s have a coffee in Buenos Aires, sers!
We’re excited to announce our partnership with @goverland_xyz - a mobile companion for DAO governance.
🌐DAOs are at the core of decentralization, but they need both protection and participation to thrive. @DAObox_io provides the legal foundation that gives clarity and shields communities from risks.
@goverland_xyz turns that foundation into everyday action - enabling members to follow proposals, vote, and access DAO insights anytime, anywhere.
🤝 Together, we strengthen the DAO ecosystem: connecting legal structure with active participation, so decentralized communities can grow with resilience, transparency, and trust.
If you could time travel to 2021 and buy any governance token, which would you choose?
Now ask yourself: which 2025 DAO will be the giant of 2029?
The signs are there - in the proposals, the treasury growth, the voter patterns.
Your governance time machine awaits on gl app
During @shefiorg education, it's all very practical. If you've never used DEXes, you will. If you didn't have any knowledge of web3, you're sure to become a pro.
We still have to use CEXes to move fiat to crypto and back. I'm using Kraken in UK, and whats your fav one?
wasn’t sure I’d be given the #SheFiSeason14 scholarship. now it feels like my life’s about to change, and somehow dramatically 🤓
thanks to @shefiorg and everyone who makes things like this possible!
Wouldn’t call it a dream. it was something essential I needed and didn’t realise I’d been missing for so long.
and I got it in true community and real support.
fairytale is on!
love you girls, promise I’ll spread the vibe forward 🙃🤗
P.S. Mira says thanks too. means I’ll be home with the laptop even more 😁
Watching the DAO. Block 7
Monthly New Proposals
Proposal count shows how often a DAO puts decisions on the table. It captures the pace of governance over time.
Let’s look at two examples:
- Aavegotchi started with fast governance cycles. Proposals shaped staking, game mechanics, and DAO structure. Over time, the pace slowed. The system settled. Decisions now come less often, tied to maintenance and treasury.
- Moonwell moved the other way. Proposal volume grew with the protocol. New markets, revenue tools, and chain integrations pushed up activity as the DAO took on more responsibility.
This indicator won’t explain everything, but it shows how much governance is being used and when that changes.
Watching the DAO continues 🍀

Top 10 Voters by Average VP
Every DAO talks decentralization.
Among all metrics we track, this one draws the most heat.
This chart shows how voting power is actually used and tracks which voters had the most weight across proposals over time.
We found 3 different examples for you:
- @aavegotchi
In both short- and long-term views, most voting power is used by wallets outside the top 10. The “Other” slice remains dominant, showing that governance activity is widely shared without visible concentration.
- @aave
Top voters hold a significant share of used power. Most of them are known delegates like wintermutegovernance.eth and aretagov.eth. These delegates operate on behalf of many token holders, and they vote often. It may look centralised, though this power comes from token holders who delegate it willingly.
- @decentraland
Decentraland presents itself as an open world: play, earn, buy assets, and vote. Here, top addresses hold a much larger portion of voting power. Decentraland uses direct asset-based voting, where MANA, LAND, and other holdings grant governance rights. This leads to clear concentration among large asset holders, including the DAO treasury itself.
The chart captures who consistently participates with real weight. Each DAO shows a different model of where decisions come from. Power concentration doesn’t always mean lost decentralization and a broad design doesn’t guarantee it either.
Follow us for more DAO metrics and ways to read this complex but fascinating space 🍀
