# DAO Proposals

The LEVEL DAO preliminarily focuses on the following topics:

* **Submitting and approving all Expenditures (incl. engineering)**
* **Submitting and approving Treasury** functions, partnerships, and incentive programs
* **Nominate contributors**
  * Anyone can petition the DAO to engage new contributors, advisors, community members, or professionals, so long as it is in the interest of the majority
  * Our vision is to have a lasting and strongly aligned community continually working toward the improvement and expansion of LEVEL
* **Propose, control and approve** **Fees, features, and functionalities**:
  * Trading fees
  * Fee distribution
  * The listing of additional crypto assets
  * Integration of new asset classes (forex, indices, synthetics, commodities, etc.)
  * Cross-chain expansion opportunities
  * Other features that are integral to the platform's success
* **Complete oversight on Security** - as LEVEL grows, security will continually increase in importance. The DAO has complete oversight over current and future bug bounty programs and security audits - the cornerstones of operational security.
* **Other** topics or matters that are of operational and/or strategic importance

Through governance proposals, the LEVEL DAO has control over all parts of the LEVEL ecosystem. The flow of governance proposals is as follows:

* Forum posts are created on the [**LEVEL Governance Forum**](https://forum.level.finance/)
  * Open to the public for deeper discussion and community feedback
* Once a proposal reaches quorum, it is formally raised on the [**LEVEL DAO Proposals**](https://dao.level.finance/proposals) site as a Level Improvement Proposal (LIP)
* Voting time may vary depending on the topic
