2. Initiate a pre-proposal discussion
A pre-proposal discussion allows you to gather feedback from the community before you put a proposal on chain.
A pre-proposal discussion is not strictly required, however is good especially for first time proposers. It’s a way to gather support and feedback from the community before official launching a proposal. A discussion time of one to two weeks is recommended.
3. Submit the proposal on-chain
The proposal needs to be put on-chain to be evaluated by tokenholders. The beneficiary is specfied as the destination for receipt of funds if the proposal is successful. The description of the proposal is posted to Polkassembly or Subsquare along with a link to the full proposal (PDF or Google Docs).
