Cross-chain DEX aggregator Velora has become the latest protocol to see its decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) vs. Labs structure come under pressure.
Today, April 10, Velora, formerly known as ParaSwap, passed PIP-77: Governance Evolution & Operational Alignment, a proposal to wind down its DAO and consolidate operations under Laita Labs, the development company that built the protocol. The proposal passed with 65.8% of voters for and 16.78% against the shift. 17.41% of voters abstained.
The proposal transfers the roughly $415,000 remaining in the DAO treasury to Laita Labs to settle outstanding infrastructure costs. It also discontinues the DAO's 20% protocol fee routing, retires the staking program with the exit lockup set to zero so stakers can withdraw immediately, and closes the futarchy governance pilot with approximately $19,000 remaining from its original $50,000 allocation.
