Push DAO

Overview

In November 2024, Push DAO launched the Push Delegate Program: Epoch 1, aiming to strengthen governance participation by delegating 50,000 PUSH to five selected community members. The delegated tokens are vested via Hedgey Finance, granting voting rights on Snapshot.

To ensure active governance engagement, the vested tokens will only unlock in May 2025 (the end of the first year of Push DAO v2) if a delegate maintains 85% participation in both discussions and voting.

Compensation Structure & Eligibility

Voting Participation

  • Maintain at least 85% voting participation throughout the program.

  • Failure to meet this threshold for two consecutive months may result in removal.

Forum Discussions

  • Engage actively in the Push Forum, providing high-quality feedback on governance proposals.

  • AI-generated content is strictly prohibited and will lead to removal.

Communicating Rationale

  • Maintain a delegate thread explaining voting decisions.

  • Follow a structured format covering contact info, delegate motivation, conflicts of interest, and waiver of liability.

  • Prior governance participation

  • Relevant experience and skills

  • Understanding of Push DAO’s governance challenges

Governance & Oversight

  • Delegates failing to meet participation requirements for two consecutive months risk removal from the program.

Implementation Plan & Timeline
