DAO Governance Proposal: Implementation of a Postponement Fail-Safe for Whitelist Proposals

Aquarius DAO proposes a postponement fail-safe for whitelist governance: if a whitelisted asset suffers external exploitation after a bond is posted, proposal creators can pause voting at zero cost to resume later, or forfeit the bond to DAO treasury. The mechanism incentivizes asset recovery over abandonment.
