Aquarius Governance v2.0 launches with major upgrades including a mandatory discussion phase, editable proposals, redesigned fees, vote lock periods, and improved UI. These changes address low participation and other issues from v1.0, built on the Stellar blockchain via SDEX and AMM integrations. The system now encourages better proposals and early voting.

Aquarius, a Stellar ecosystem project, has launched Governance v2.0 to enhance community participation and proposal quality. Key upgrades include a 7-day discussion phase before voting (100k AQUA fee), editable proposals within 30 days (additional 100k AQUA per edit), and publication for voting (900k AQUA), with successful creators rewarded 1.5M AQUA. Vote locks now incentivize early participation by unlocking AQUA sooner for prompt voters. The UI features tabs for active, discussion, and finished proposals with card views showing key stats. Past proposals integrated Stellar elements like Ultra Stellar adopting AQUA and boosts for SDEX/AMM markets. Governance is live at gov.aqua.network, with more Aquarius upgrades teased.
