# Governance ✨🏛✨

**The BuckSwap Organization** is comprised of like-minded individuals who aim to create an objective yield farming platform that is both secure and advantageous to the community. Unlike most projects, **BuckSwap** is being built by both experts in software development and business-minded individuals who’ll be able to bring these tools to the masses with great code, marketing, and partnerships.

The **BuckSwap** community is always proposing new use cases. The **$BUCKS** token’s supply mechanisms have been built with long-term holders in mind. It is against the nature of Buck Swap to dilute early users for the benefit of others, thus the **$BUCKS** token has many built-in burning mechanisms and deflationary implementations to ensure it is continuously appreciating in value for both newcomers and legacy holders. In order to increase **$BUCKS**’ value over time and balance the circulating supply of our token, the token was engineered with several key burning mechanisms in place.

## **Voting**

* Each **$BUCKS** staked in the **Staking Contract** will generate an equal number of votes in the **BuckSwap** governance contract. 
* The votes can be used to decide further developments and changes to the **BuckSwap** protocol.

## **Proposals** 

* Every **$BUCKS** holder will be able to offer a proposal. 
  * Every proposal will cost 0.1 **$BUCKS** which will go to the **BuckSwap Trust Account** to be used on further development and marketing. 
  * For a proposal to be executed, it must obtain **30%** of all possible votes. 
  * More than **50%** of the **30%** of all possible votes must be “YES”.

## **Vote Vesting** 

* Any person who votes will have **48 hours** of vesting on their tokens in the **Staking Contract**; this is necessary in order to prevent voting manipulation.
