Klaytn changes

The Klaytn Foundation is set to propose a comprehensive agenda to the blockchain’s governance council ahead of the council’s voting scheduled between February 22 and February 28. The proposal is expected to outline the blockchain’s roadmap for 2023 and beyond and include a new governance structure as well as a revamped tokenomics model for the native token KLAY.

When it comes to governance, the foundation plans to disclose the voting agendas of the governance council and establish a communication channel for the Klaytn community to participate in decision-making and governance.

Currently, the governance council, a group of network participants, is the one tasked with overseeing Klaytn Network governance.

The Klaytn Foundation will continue to serve as the decision-making organ for the Klaytn ecosystem and will propose major agendas for the platform. However, the governance council decision-making authority will be expanded to allow the Foundation to promote projects based on the governance council members’ decisions. The governance council voting agendas and statuses will then be disclosed in real-time through the Klaytn Square, which is a governance protocol.

The Klaytn Foundation will also present a revamped tokenomics proposal to the governance council starting Monday. The proposal allegedly handles the uncirculated (reserve) KLAY tokens.

The finalized agendas and proposals are expected to be made public on February 28 in addition to the 2023 roadmap.
