In a significant move for the Polygon ecosystem, the Aragon Project has announced the development of a “governance hub” aimed at empowering users and builders to directly influence the core development of Polygon technology. This new initiative promises to enhance the decentralization and community-driven nature of the Polygon network.
Aragon Project’s Governance Solution
The Aragon Project, a prominent developer of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), has created “an end-to-end governance solution, including protocol governance contracts and a community-driven Governance Hub.” This innovative hub is designed to address the needs of the Polygon community, as discussed during their discussions last year.
“An efficient, secure, and decentralized voting model is proposed to address the needs of system smart contract upgradeability, with the Polygon community soon being able to tangibly steer protocol development via the Governance Hub,” said Mateusz Rzeszowski, the head of governance at Polygon Labs.

built hand-in-hand with the community, the hub marks the next chapter of Polygon governance and community ownership.

Empowering the Polygon Community
The new governance hub is intended to “empower users and builders to influence core development of Polygon tech,” according to the announcement. Polygon has also shared a visual overview of the framework, detailing the process from proposal submission to community voting and implementation.
Aragon and Polygon have also announced plans to host an X spaces session to further discuss the development and its implications for the Polygon ecosystem.
“We’re excited to bring Polygon’s governance pillars to life with our next-generation modular DAO framework: Aragon OSx,” said Anthony Leutenegger, the CEO of Aragon X. “From the protocol governance contracts, to a seamless and transparent Governance Hub, this project is a big step towards more inclusive and decentralized governance for Polygon.”
This innovative move by the Aragon Project and Polygon aims to enhance the community’s involvement in the decision-making process, fostering a more transparent and decentralized governance model for the Polygon network.
the upgraded governance framework for the system smart contracts pillar ensures a structured, transparent, and safety-focused process for decision-making.
