@ -140,12 +140,19 @@ casted on a proposal for the result to be valid.
Threshold is defined as the minimum proportion of `Yes` votes (excluding
`Abstain` votes) for the proposal to be accepted.
Initially, the threshold is set at 50% with a possibility to veto if more than
1/3rd of votes (excluding `Abstain` votes) are `NoWithVeto` votes. This means
that proposals are accepted if the proportion of `Yes` votes (excluding
`Abstain` votes) at the end of the voting period is superior to 50% and if the
proportion of `NoWithVeto` votes is inferior to 1/3 (excluding `Abstain`
votes).
Initially, the threshold is set at 50% of `Yes` votes, excluding `Abstain`
votes. A possibility to veto exists if more than 1/3rd of all votes are
`NoWithVeto` votes. Note, both of these values are derived from the `TallyParams`
on-chain parameter, which is modifiable by governance.
This means that proposals are accepted iff:
* There exist bonded tokens.
* Quorum has been achieved.
* The proportion of `Abstain` votes is inferior to 1/1.
* The proportion of `NoWithVeto` votes is inferior to 1/3, including
`Abstain` votes.
* The proportion of `Yes` votes, excluding `Abstain` votes, at the end of
the voting period is superior to 1/2.
