Process:
- Proposal posted simultaneously on the governance forum and Snapshot.
- The forum post must include a clear justification of the emergency nature of the proposal.
- Debate and voting run concurrently for 24 hours.
- The higher quorum requirement (30%) aims to ensure that emergency decisions carry broad community legitimacy despite the compressed timeline.
- If quorum is reached and the proposal achieves a simple majority, the DAO Multisig may proceed with execution without delay, subject to applicable security, technical, and legal validation.
Abuse prevention: Any proposer invoking the Emergency category for a matter that does not constitute a legitimate emergency may see the proposal vetoed by the Association (see Section 4 below). Community members are encouraged to flag inappropriate use of the Emergency category on the governance forum.
