On-chain voting protocols are decentralized governance mechanisms that allow token holders to cast votes directly on a blockchain for proposed changes to a protocol or ecosystem. These systems ensure transparency and immutability of voting records, empowering a community to collectively steer the development and future direction of a project. Decisions are executed automatically by smart contracts.
