DAO voting with Governance tokens on Ethereum mainnet is expensive. Gas costs can be prohibitive for small to medium sized holders, or delegates who have received voting power but don't have a strong incentive to vote on a given proposal.

On Aprli 4th, 2023, ScopeLift released v1.0.0 of Flexible Voting, our extension to the OpenZeppelin governance contracts used by many DAOs. The release had been audited by OpenZeppelin.

This post will explain how we added flexible voting support to Comet, as well as some of the abstractions we created to make this kind of work easier for smart contract devs of the future. It will also cover some of the other work we're doing to help the DAO governance ecosystem benefit from flexible voting.

ScopeLift is very grateful to have been recently awarded a grant by the Aave Grants DAO to add flexible voting to that list.

In February of this year, ScopeLift received a grant from the Uniswap Grant Program (UGP). The high level goal of our grant was improving the safety, resilience, and accessibility of Uniswap DAO's Governance. Our aim was to do so in a way that would also benefit the broader ecosystem. In this vein, our work was focused on two tasks.
