# Governance

## **Governance of the Urano Ecosystem**

The **Urano Ecosystem** operates as a **decentralized and community-driven** platform, allowing **$URANO token holders** to actively participate in decision-making processes. Governance is designed to ensure that the community has a **direct influence** on key aspects of the ecosystem, from **platform upgrades** to **RWA tokenization approvals**.

***

### **Voting Power and Participation**

Governance within Urano is **fully on-chain**, leveraging **$URANO staking** to determine **voting power**:

**1 $URANO Staked = 1 Voting Power**

To participate in governance, users must **stake** their **$URANO tokens**, which grants them **voting rights** proportional to the amount staked. The more **$URANO** a user stakes, the greater their influence over the ecosystem’s decisions.

***

### **Decision-Making Process**

1. **Proposal Submission**\
   Governance discussions start within the Urano community, where users can **propose changes** related to tokenization strategies, platform developments, or ecosystem improvements.
2. **Community Review & Discussion**\
   The proposal is shared within governance channels for open discussions. Feedback from the community helps refine the proposal before it moves to a vote.
3. **Snapshot Voting**\
   Staked **$URANO holders** vote on proposals using their **voting power (1 $URANO = 1 vote)**. Voting occurs on a **dedicated governance interface** within the **Urano Platform**.
4. **On-Chain Execution**\
   If a proposal **meets the required threshold**, it is **automatically executed on-chain**, ensuring transparency and decentralization.

***

### **Types of Governance Proposals**

Holders of **staked $URANO** can vote on various governance aspects, including:

* **Approval of new RWA tokenization proposals** 
* **Ecosystem upgrades** 
* **Community Initiatives**

### **Disclaimer & Future Updates**

The Governance Module may evolve as the ecosystem grows and as regulatory requirements develop. Additional parameters, such as proposal thresholds, quorum models, or delegation mechanics, will be released alongside the official governance launch.

Users are encouraged to periodically review Urano’s official documentation, [Terms & Conditions](/policies/terms-and-conditions.md), and governance policies to remain informed about updates or changes.
