How to vote on governance proposals

Moonwell Governance leverages both on-chain and off-chain voting mechanisms. Below is a step-by-step guide showing how to review and vote upon active proposals from the Governance Portal (on-chain) and the snapshot portals for Apollo and Artemis (off-chain).
In order to participate in voting you will need:
- Web-3 wallet
- GLMR/MOVR for gas (does not apply for Snapshot voting)
- An active proposal to vote on
Your WELL/MFAM must be delegated prior to a proposal becoming active in order for your votes to count toward the current proposal.
Once a Moonwell Improvement Proposal has made it through the proposal process and has been submitted, it will appear on the Governance Portal. Here you can view all current and former MIPs.
- Upon connecting to the Governance Portal, a pop-up modal will ask you to connect your Web3 wallet
