FORTH Governance and Proposal Voting in the Ampleforth Protocol
Summary
The document distinguishes FORTH, Ampleforth’s governance token, from AMPL, the protocol’s adaptive-supply unit. FORTH holders can participate in proposals and votes about protocol parameters, upgrades, and treasury decisions; the text describes a typical one-token, one-vote arrangement and optional delegation. It outlines a process in which proposals are discussed, may need to meet a submission threshold, proceed to a vote, and are implemented if approved. The document also names past examples, including a rebase-cadence update, treasury allocation, and a security-related vote.
For participation, it recommends reviewing proposals, checking the official governance portal and contract address, and considering delegation. It also notes smart-contract, custody, and token-price risks. The page mixes governance explanation with exchange promotion and buying instructions. Its market-data table explicitly labels the figures hypothetical, so those values should not be treated as current data; claims about audits, rewards, and voting mechanics are not independently evidenced here. Readers should verify current protocol rules before acting.
