A veto-based voting system confers several advantages over a traditional majority vote method. It mitigates the ability to acquire a stake large enough to force through malicious proposals by requiring broader consensus for changes, as it is much easier for actors to block proposals than a majority vote system. It is more efficient while also encouraging collaboration, fostering stability, and ensuring only well-considered proposals are implemented. Proposals are made on-chain by users, who suggest a token contract address and provide a veto bounty for their submission. The veto bounty acts as an anti-spam mechanism to prevent the submission of frivolous or malicious proposals. This mechanism ensures that users have a financial stake in the quality and validity of their proposals. Once a proposal is submitted, there is a predefined veto period during which other users can challenge the proposal. 2% of the total amount of staked MaxCap is required to veto a proposal. MaxCap stakers who disagree with the proposal can submit a veto by staking a higher bounty than the original proposer. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://whitepaper.nuon.fi/governance/veto-system.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
