+## Governance Participation
+
+Governance participation enables TORUS holders to shape the network's evolution through democratic decision-making processes. Every token holder has voting rights proportional to their holdings, creating a decentralized governance system where community consensus drives protocol changes.
+
+Voting power directly correlates to TORUS token holdings:
+- **1 TORUS = 1 vote**
 
 ## Proposals
 
-Proposals are the primary mechanism for implementing changes to the Torus protocol. Any agent with sufficient stake in the network can submit a proposal. Different types of Proposals address specific aspects of governance, each with its own parameters.

+Any holder with sufficient stake in the network can submit a proposal.
+Different types of Proposals address specific aspects of governance, each with its own parameters.
+
+**DAO Treasury Transfer:**
+- Community requests for funding from the DAO Treasury
+- Support ecosystem development, research, or community initiatives
+- Requires detailed project proposals and justification
+
+**Emission Proposals:**  
+- Recycling percentage (portion of fees burned through recycling)
+- Treasury percentage (portion allocated to network treasury)
+- Incentives ratio (portion for incentive programs and rewards)
+
+**Global Params Proposals:**
+- Change agent name length requirements (minimum/maximum)
+- Modify maximum number of agents allowed
+- Adjust maximum weights permitted
+
+**Global Custom:**
+- Implement changes not covered by other proposal types
+- Technical modifications requiring custom code execution
+
+## Approval Criteria
+
+**Standard Requirements:**
+- **Support Threshold**: At least 50% of votes must be favorable
+- **Participation Threshold**: More than 10% of total token supply must participate
+- **Time Limit**: Voting closes after 7 days regardless of participation
+
+**Outcome Scenarios:**
+- **Approved**: 50%+ support + 10%+ participation → Automatic execution
+- **Rejected**: Less than 50% support + 10%+ participation → Proposal fails
+- **Insufficient Participation**: Less than 10% participation → Proposal expires
+
+## Vote Flexibility
+
+Votes can be changed anytime during the voting period, allowing voters to adjust their position as discussions evolve and new information emerges.
+
+## Proposal Costs
+
+- **Submission Fee**: 10,000 TORUS required to submit proposals
+- **Cost Recovery**: Fee refunded if proposal passes, retained by Treasury if rejected

-## Voting Power and Token Weight
-
-### Voting Power Calculation
 Voting power directly correlates to TORUS token holdings:
 - **1 TORUS = 1 vote**
-- Voting power is calculated at proposal snapshot time
-- Staked tokens may have additional voting weight (depending on staking mechanics)
-- Tokens must be held in your connected wallet during voting periods
-
-### Power User vs Delegated Voting
-
-**Delegated Voting (Default)**
-- Validators automatically vote on behalf of token holders
-- No action required from individual holders
-- Validators make decisions based on their assessment of proposals
-- Reduces participation burden for passive holders
-- Can be changed to personal voting at any time
-
-**Power User Mode**
-- Direct control over your voting decisions
-- Must actively participate in each proposal vote
-- Full autonomy over how your tokens influence governance
-- Requires transaction to enable/disable
-- Ideal for active community members who want direct control
