Starknet governance focuses on Starknet protocol upgrades. In its first phase, every Starknet version upgrade will be deployed on Goerli Testnet; voters will then have a few days period to examine and test the upgraded version as it runs on Goerli. During this time, a Snapshot proposal will be opened, and the community can vote on whether to approve or reject the upgraded version for Mainnet deployment.

If the proposal gains a majority of ‘YES’ votes during the voting period, the proposal passes and Starknet mainnet will be upgraded accordingly.

For further details, you are encouraged to check out the following posts and engage with the discussions in the Starknet community forum.
