In a significant stride toward establishing a fully decentralized decision-making mechanism, Cardano nears a crucial milestone with the advancement of CIP-1694. The proposal has garnered extensive global attention as representatives from around the world convened to discuss its details. Thus, over the course of six months, more than 50 workshops involving nearly 1,000 community members were held to foster comprehensive discussions on the proposal.
These workshops aimed to ensure that the governance system aligns with the needs and desires of the Cardano community. The feedback collected during this process has now been analyzed, leading to the emergence of a community-led proposal for the Minimum Viable Governance (MVG) framework that will be made available for voting to all ADA holders.
The Age of Voltaire will soon be upon us as an ecosystem. It’s going to unlock the power of the millions of Cardano users and builders. It will also, once again, show the rest of the industry how to do decentralized governance just like we did with Staking. pic.twitter.com/HO8PgA5J2G

As CIP-1694 progresses toward its final form, the Cardano community will have the opportunity to participate in voting sessions to determine the acceptability of the proposed framework.
Community voting
The voting process will present several opportunities for community engagement, allowing members to shape the governance mechanism that best represents their collective interests. This participatory approach holds immense potential in advancing decentralized governance within the Cardano ecosystem.
With the Voltaire era symbolizing the culmination of Cardano’s development, the successful implementation of CIP-1694 assumes paramount importance. The fate of on-chain governance in Cardano hinges on widespread consensus among the community. With excitement mounting, all eyes are now on the forthcoming voting sessions, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in Cardano’s journey toward full and true decentralization.
