Vesper Improvement
Proposals (VIPs) that will be
voted on by the Vesper DAO,
built from Compound GOV
module.
Bloq & external partners
have a social contract to
review and implement VIPs
that have majority support.
Phase III
VIPs that pass with majority
rule will be accepted and
implemented.
Bloq & external partners retain
the right to veto in emergency
situations.
Phase IV

all responsibility and power.
