Dawn vote, tool for on-chain democracy

Dawn is launching its on-chain democracy tool. This brings voting in DAOs to mobile and lets you vote on the go whenever a new proposal goes live. It comes packed with:

  • Governance news feed of your upcoming and active votes, based on tokens you hold or delegations you may have

  • Proposal descriptions - see the proposal content, votes for + against and more

  • Explore DAOs and protocols, choose those that you want to see in your news feed

  • Receive push notifications when a new vote goes live, so you never miss one whilst you’re on the go

  • Support for on-chain proposals and preliminary off-chain Snapshot proposals

Ethereum is all about community ownership and building a decentralised ethos for the governance of its projects. However, it is still too difficult to get involved with voting on the go and only a small fraction of token holders vote.

By building this release, Dawn is breaking down the barriers to taking part in governance, making relevant proposals digestible, discoverable and accessible to you on mobile within your Dawn wallet!

News feed for governance

Dawn vote features a governance news feed. It surfaces, in a single place, all the on-chain votes that are relevant to you based on which governance tokens and delegations you have:

News feed of on-chain and off-chain governance proposals relevant to you
News feed of on-chain and off-chain governance proposals relevant to you

You can browse your proposals and when you are ready to vote on one, click into it to see the full details:

Then simply click Vote and you’ll be taken to Boardroom or Snapshot on Safari where you can place your vote with our Safari extension!

Explore DAOs

There’s a huge universe of DAOs and protocols building everything from cutting edge decentralised finance infrastructure to bringing together groups of creators and artists. But it’s sometimes tricky to find which communities you want to get involved in.

Dawn now features an “Explore” page where you can browse DAOs and join the ones you’re interested in. Joining will mix the proposals of the community into your news feed where you can get involved!

Push notifications

Often it’s hard to know when a new governance vote is going live and you can accidentally miss them. Dawn now has push notifications for on-chain proposals, powered by Daylight, so you can easily stay up to date and submit your votes on the move! Off-chain notifications are coming.

Voting on mobile

We’re extremely excited to make governance much more accessible by making it work on mobile.

The traditional way of taking part in governance was to have a friend ping you when a new vote went live, dig out your wallet, find the connector wire, plug it into your laptop and punch in those keys to vote.

Now you can get a push notification on your Dawn mobile wallet, see a summary of the vote in your news feed and vote through Safari using Dawn’s Safari extension.

Let us know what you think and ping us with your thoughts! There’s lots more to come, including:

  • Native in-app voting

  • GPT summarised proposal descriptions

  • More information about DAOs to join and the governance abilities of your tokens
