# Liquid Delegation
|
|
|
|
Delegation allows you to entrust your vote to someone you trust, while retaining the ability to vote directly when you choose.
|
|
|
|
## How Delegation Works
|
|
|
|
1. You choose a delegate for a specific scope
|
|
2. When a proposal matches that scope, your delegate votes for you
|
|
3. You can always override by voting directly
|
|
4. You can revoke delegation at any time
|
|
|
|
## Delegation Scopes
|
|
|
|
### Community-Wide
|
|
Your delegate votes on all proposals in a community.
|
|
|
|
### Topic-Based
|
|
Your delegate only votes on proposals tagged with specific topics:
|
|
- Architecture
|
|
- Budget
|
|
- Policy
|
|
- Security
|
|
- etc.
|
|
|
|
## Creating a Delegation
|
|
|
|
1. Go to **Settings** → **Delegations**
|
|
2. Click **Add Delegation**
|
|
3. Select:
|
|
- The delegate (user you trust)
|
|
- The community
|
|
- The scope (all topics or specific topics)
|
|
4. Confirm
|
|
|
|
## Finding Delegates
|
|
|
|
Look for users who:
|
|
- Have a delegate profile with stated positions
|
|
- Are active and informed in the community
|
|
- Share your values on relevant topics
|
|
|
|
Delegate profiles show:
|
|
- Their voting policy
|
|
- Number of current delegators
|
|
- Topic expertise
|
|
|
|
## Delegation Chains
|
|
|
|
Delegations can be transitive:
|
|
- You delegate to Alice
|
|
- Alice delegates to Bob
|
|
- Bob's vote counts for all three
|
|
|
|
Likwid detects and prevents cycles.
|
|
|
|
## Transparency
|
|
|
|
All delegations are visible:
|
|
- See who delegates to whom
|
|
- Understand how votes flow
|
|
- Accountability is built-in
|
|
|
|
## Revoking Delegation
|
|
|
|
1. Go to **Settings** → **Delegations**
|
|
2. Find the delegation to revoke
|
|
3. Click **Revoke**
|
|
4. The delegation ends immediately
|
|
|
|
## Best Practices
|
|
|
|
- **Delegate to active members** who participate regularly
|
|
- **Use topic-based delegation** for specialized decisions
|
|
- **Review your delegations** periodically
|
|
- **Vote directly** on issues you care deeply about
