    Snapshot X Announcement

    Snapshot X, a governance platform for DAOs, enables gas-free voting. Developed by Snapshot Labs, this Layer 2 protocol leverages Starknet's roll-up technology to simplify and reduce the costs of voting in blockchain projects, avoiding traditional expenses and complexities.

    Snapshot X Technology and Features

    Snapshot X uses scaling and storage proofs from StarkWare, the main developer of Starknet. This technology allows secure voting across different blockchains without the need to transfer tokens or rely on third-party intermediaries. Storage proofs ensure cryptographic verification of user assets, guaranteeing secure and tamper-proof voting processes.

    First Vote on Snapshot X

    The first vote on Snapshot X will take place from September 10-13, where Starknet community members will decide on a staking proposal. Voting will take place on the Starknet Governance Hub through a custom-built interface, marking the protocol’s debut in live governance.

    For the first time, DAOs can offer free onchain voting to their communities, promoting greater inclusivity and participation in decentralized decision-making.Jeremy Musighi, COO of Snapshot Labs

    The launch of Snapshot X marks a significant step toward improving DAO governance and decentralized decision-making. Leveraging Starknet technology, the platform offers secure, efficient, and free voting, making it an appealing tool for various blockchain projects.
