Voting Mechanics & Thresholds
How decisions are made through $OLTA-based governance, with safeguards and optional fund-specific granularity.
OLTA’s governance system is designed to balance transparency, resilience, and institutional-grade discipline. Protocol decisions are driven by holders of the $OLTA token, with structured voting mechanics and configurable thresholds.
Who Can Vote
Governance Token: Only $OLTA is used for governance.
Staking-Based Participation: Voting power is tied to staked $OLTA tokens.
1 token = 1 vote: Voting weight is proportional to the amount of $OLTA staked at snapshot.
Delegation Supported: Token holders may delegate voting power to trusted addresses.
IRT-Specific Participation (Optional)
While IRTs are not used for governance, certain fund-specific proposals (e.g., reweighting or asset inclusion for a specific index) may require voters to:
Hold an active position in the related IRT
Pass a minimum threshold (e.g., 0.1% of fund supply) at the snapshot block
This ensures that only relevant participants can influence the structure of a given fund, while preserving global protocol governance under $OLTA.
Voting Thresholds & Safeguards
Quorum
Minimum % of total staked $OLTA required to validate a vote (e.g., 5%)
Approval Threshold
% of "Yes" votes needed to pass a proposal (e.g., 60%)
Timelock Delay
Time delay before execution after approval (e.g., 48h)
Delegation Model
Enabled; voters can assign rights to delegates
Emergency Override
Reserved for predefined system-critical changes (if activated by governance)
Voting Access
All proposals are published on the OLTA Governance Dashboard
Each proposal includes scope, parameters, and execution impact
Voting history and quorum progression are transparent and onchain
OLTA governance focuses on clarity, protection against manipulation, and modularity ensuring protocol upgrades reflect real stakeholder alignment.
