At this stage, you are welcome to open a discussion on the governance forum. Explore with the community if the strategy would be interesting before moving forward. Get feedback on your ideas and suggestions for improvement. Clip’s governance forum & discord are the best way to go through the discovery phase and get input from other community members.

Inside the governance forum, you will see the proposal structure we’d like to see for proposing new strategies.
