# Governance Proposals & Decisions

Full index of Chiliz Chain governance proposals from validators, from the Dragon8 tokenomics upgrade through Snake8, Pepper8, the 2026 contract cleanup, and the Sherlock audit remediation.

We aim to foster a transparent and inclusive decision-making environment, ensuring that every member of the community has the opportunity and the necessary tools to contribute effectively.

Governance proposals are a vital mechanism that enables validators to voice their opinions and directly influence the network's development and operational decisions.

## List of major proposals

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.chiliz.com/chiliz-chain-changelog/governance-proposals-and-decisions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
