# Request for Comments System

#### Creating a new proposal

* Users who hold Phemex Soul Pass and vePT and have a voter role on the exchange's Discord server can create a new proposal by posting in the designated Discord channel (#dao-proposal).
* It is recommended to follow predefined templates when creating a proposal, such as a general proposal or grant application template. These templates should include information such as the rationale for the proposal, any action items or asks for the exchange or its community, and any goals or success factors for the proposal.
* Users can also add tags to their proposal to indicate which working groups should be involved in assessing it.
* By default, a proposal will be automatically archived if it is inactive for a week.

#### Participation

* Users who hold Phemex Soul Pass and vePT and have a voter role on the exchange's Discord server can participate by commenting on proposals and providing feedback or ideas.
* Users can also signal their support or preferences for a proposal by participating in Discord polls that are included in the thread.
* Users can also apply for grants from the exchange by creating a grant application proposal that includes information such as the grantee's background, the total budget requested, the scope of the grant, and the project's goals and success factors.
