XAO DAO plans to roll out governance changes on the XRP Ledger over the next two to three months, including wallet delegation, revised quorum rules, and community mini-grants. Co-founder Fabio Marzella says the goal is to make participation easier and more representative at a time when several XRPL projects have scaled back or shut down.
XAO DAO is preparing a series of governance changes for the XRP Ledger over the next two to three months, according to Fabio Marzella, the organization's co-founder. The planned changes would let members delegate voting power, adjust quorum rules, and access community mini-grants.
Marzella said the first change would introduce wallet delegation, letting members hand their voting power to others when they lack the time or expertise to vote on individual proposals. The DAO is aiming to make participation easier and more representative, at a moment when several XRPL projects have already scaled back or shut down.
Marzella's group is also reviewing its quorum requirements, including how inactive wallets count toward proposal thresholds. The stated aim is to prevent inactive participation from blocking decisions while keeping governance tied to the active community. Community mini grants are another planned addition, letting members submit smaller initiatives and seek funding for projects that contribute to the XRPL ecosystem.
According to Marzella, "These aren't changes for the sake of change," and the broader goal is to create a DAO where the community has the ability to act rather than simply having a vote.
The timing comes as questions around developer support have grown within the XRPL community. On August 13, Marzella said the shutdown of Gen3's retail platforms showed that funding developers alone does not solve the problem of building lasting businesses.
