Authors: @Bobbay at Across

Status: RFC

## Summary:

This proposal introduces an alternative streamlined governance process to be used for chain deployments only, termed “Fast-Track Deployment Proposal”. Fast-Track deployment proposals will have a lifecycle of 72 hours due to the nature of the proposal.

## Motivation:

As Across DAO further decentralizes, a Fast-Track deployment proposals process will be necessary to address faster deployments. These Fast-Track deployment proposals will enable Across DAO to deploy chains faster; instead of relying on the standard governance process.

## Specification & Implementation:

Specification

1. Fast-track process
2. Scope of the fast-track process

Fast-track Process

1. Governance Thread for 24 hours
2. Snapshot Vote for 48 hours

Implementing a fast-track proposal would decrease the time to pass a chain deployment proposal from 8 days to 3 days.

To indicate a fast-track proposal, community members will have to insert “[Fast-Track DP]” into the title of a proposal i.e., “[Fast-Track DP] Deploy Across on WorldChain”. This is to alert community members about the nature of the proposal. This will also introduce a new tag to the Across forum, “Fast-Track” to keep track of all fast-track proposals.

Scope of the fast-track process. This process can be utilized under the following circumstances;

1. Deploying Across on new networks

SnapShot Subspace

To facilitate the fast-track deployment proposal process, Across DAO will need to set up a separate snapshot subspace. This is necessary because this snapshot currently does not allow for different lengths for different proposals.

The newly created snapshot subspace would have a shorter voting period of 2 days.

Implementation

This is how the fast-track proposal would look in practice:

1. Across DAO Member posts a fast-track proposal on the Across forum with “[Fast-Track DP]” in the title
2. After 24 hours, it will move forward to SnapShot.
3. Across token holders will now vote on a proposal via SnapShot.

## Rationale:

Across DAO needs a fast-track proposal process to cater to processes that require timely intervention; Across Governance process would require a large amount of time from discussion to voting duration to cater to an immediate chain deployment..

## Voting:

This proposal will go through RFC (request for comment) and then move to vote.  
This proposal will shortly move to a snapshot vote.
