Archway Governance Update - Jul 7, 2024 Welcome to the bi-weekly Archway Governance Update! This update includes recent proposals and ongoing discussions within the community. The goal is to keep everyone informed about progress and engaged in the evolution of the network. **On-chain Proposals** Prop #47: Update callback gas limit param This proposal seeks to increase the callback gas limit parameter to 1,000,000 to allow for executing more complex transactions that require additional computational resources. [Check it out here](https://www.mintscan.io/archway/proposals/47) **Active Forum Discussions** _Marketing DAO Budget Request_ This proposal seeks $80,000 for the next 3 months to continue the Marketing DAO’s efforts in promoting Archway and its ecosystem. Discussions over the past two weeks have focused on the ROI of previous marketing efforts and the strategic plan for the next quarter. Some community members requested detailed metrics from past campaigns to justify the budget, while others emphasized the importance of sustained marketing for long-term growth. [Join the discussion here ](https://gov.archway.io/t/spend-proposal-archways-marketing-dao-budget-request/614) _Validator Set Reduction_ This proposal aims to reduce the number of validators in the active set to achieve a more balanced distribution of voting power and enable more sustainable economics (i.e. a decrease in emissions). Community members have been discussing the optimal number of validators to balance security and decentralization. Some members emphasized the need for a phased approach to monitor the impact gradually. [Join the discussion here ](https://gov.archway.io/t/validator-set-reduction/635/11) **Community Updates:** Given the low turnout on calls over the past year, we are transitioning to bi-weekly written updates. The aim is to provide more detailed and accessible information to the entire community. This will provide everyone a record and visibility into the discussions, and make it easier for more community members to participate async. We want to drive awareness of ongoing proposals and discussions, and get more stakeholders actively engaged! Thank you for being an active part of the Archway community. Your participation and input shapes the future of the Archway ecosystem. Stay tuned for the next update in two weeks! ---

When were publicly-streamed Governance Calls going to be resumed? And not just on Discord, that’s a terrible platform to host a live audio call. Use Twitter, more people can join in and you get more visibility. There are several props that are worth discussing on a call that have not been. Do we have a set schedule for the upcoming call, and is Phi Labs actually willing to listen to the concerns of the community and act in the community’s best interests? I see a lot of self-serving people who do not have Archway’s best interests at heart, and purposely interfering with the governance process. ---
