- Radix is launching a crucial community consultation to define exactly which assets grant voting power in its decentralized governance future.
- The consultation asks users to select all eligible assets from a “Safe List,” with options including all forms of staked XRD, liquid tokens, and tokens actively used in DeFi protocols.
- Any individual option receiving more than 60% support from participants will be adopted as the standard for future governance consultations and snapshots.
- The consultation process is live now and will run until February 4, 2026.
The Radix community is now shaping the very definition of membership as it transitions to a community-led model, launching a decisive consultation to determine which assets count for governance votes. This process, initiated immediately and running until February 2026, directly tackles the complex question of measuring a user’s voice within the ecosystem. Consequently, the outcome will establish a clear “Safe List” of assets that represent valid voting power for all future community consultations.
Historically, governance votes often count only tokens held in simple accounts. However, Radix is a DeFi protocol where a significant amount of XRD is actively used for staking, providing liquidity, lending, or locked in time-release contracts. The team currently counts all these XRD in consultations, as users should not have to withdraw from DeFi just to participate. Meanwhile, discussions have highlighted potential benefits to simplifying this approach or focusing only on long-term holdings like staking.
Therefore, the consultation presents six specific options for the community’s input. You may select any and all options you believe should count towards a user’s XRD voting weight according to the posted rules. These choices range from XRD staked on any validator and liquid XRD in wallets to XRD providing liquidity in supported DEX pools, lent in markets, or locked in time-based contracts. The format is multiple choice, and any option securing greater than 60% acceptance will be adopted. If an option receives less than 60% support, it will be excluded from future snapshots until further notice. Governance requires a clear definition of membership, and this consultation live now here allows you to input on what should be considered in vote weight.
