Voting & Governance FAQ's

How Does Voting Work?

Voting allows holders of the HELIX governance token to participate in the on-going decision-making for the platform. We've provided a guide on how to take part in any active proposals in the previous section; How To Participate In Governance.

My HELIX Tokens Are Staked In The Helix Vaults, Can I Still Vote & Participate In Governance?

In order to provide maximum utility to HELIX and value to its holders, governance activities does not require HELIX to be held in your wallet, meaning there is no need to unstake from pools or farms, and you're free to lock your tokens for as long as you'd like with no restrictions.

Voting power will be displayed on the confirmation screen of the native voting portal, when casting your vote.

What Is The Difference Between A Core, And Community Proposal

Community proposals are initiated by a member of the HELIX-holding community and are a great way to gauge current support for a future change. There is no obligation for a community proposal to be enacted (this would depend entirely on the impact it could have on the platform, and the project as a whole), whereas Core proposals if passed, will be put into effect at the earliest opportunity.
