Polkadot is a fully- sharded, layer 0 blockchain technology. It offers the groundwork and security needed to easily build specialized-application layer 1 blockchains on top of it, called parachains. Parachains are connected to Polkadot&apos;s central Relay Chain, and benefit from its security and stacks. Blockchains that are not parachains can connect to the Polkadot network via Bridges.&nbsp;
Polkadot governance focuses on broad, protocol-level changes to the system, rather than specific internal ones. Relying on Substrate governance modules, decisions are approved by a stake-weighted voting event called a Referenda. Proposals may be from the public or made by the Council- an on-chain elected body that also manages the treasury and holds the power to halt harmful proposals.

Moonbeam develops Polkadot/Substrate native, Ethereum (EVM)-compatible multichain infrastructure, with bridges to other layer1s. A decentralized, permissionless Polkadot parachain, Moonbeam is governed via off-chain (&quot;soft&quot;) community signaling, and Substrate&#39;s on-chain Democracy, Council, Referenda and Treasury modules.

PancakeSwap is a popular DEX on Binance Blockchain (BNB) based on Uniswap V2, which involves DeFi trading, staking and farming with games such as lottery, trading competitions, or betting the price of BNB.
Pancake DAO distinguishes two types of proposals: Core proposals are actionable items suggested by the PancakeSwap team; and Community proposals that may be made by any $CAKE holder, and effectively address a range of issues from crypto sentiments to personal pleas, BAYC matters and also operational Pancake affairs. Reviewed by the team, those may be upgraded to Core when found beneficial.Community proposals are processed via two large Snapshot spaces, with 59K and 11K registered members as of the time of writing (Nov. 2022). Core proposals, which reflect Pancake&#39;s development and operations, are voted-on via the DAO&#39;s governance platform to be executed by the team and over multisig wallets.

Uniswap is an open-source protocol for providing liquidity and trading ERC20 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. The protocol and is implemented as a set of persistent, non-upgradable smart contracts. It is designed to prioritize censorship resistance, security, self-custody, and to function without any trusted intermediaries who may selectively restrict access. The Uniswap DEX (decentralized exchange) works as a permissionless Automated Market Maker (AMM) peer-to-peer swap and range-order mechanism, where anyone can swap, provide liquidity, or create new markets at will.
 Uniswap was established in 2019, and transferred to the community in Sep., 2022.
The Uniswap DAO is the body controlling Uniswap and its ecosystem development. DAO decisions are made by voting with the UNI token. The DAO signals its opinions off-chain via Discord and Snapshot, and votes to execute on-chain through a Compound Governor smart contract, as it had done (on different addresses) throughout V1 and V2.As of the time of writing (Nov. 2022), governance participation is token-barred: in order to create a proposal, a user must have at least 0.25% (2.5M UNI) of all UNI delegated to their address. Uniswap delegates are therefore an important governance institution within the DAO. Also, on-chain proposals need a minimal a cumulative support (quorum) of at least 4% of all $UNI, which equals $UNI40 M. While among the ~335,000 $UNI holders, only 357 addresses hold over 0.01% of the token supply, there are 25 non-contract holders with enough $UNI so as to generate the quorum support single-handed. 
The protocol and its Uniswap Interface are products of Uniswap Labs.

Decentraland is a gamified metaverse platform for gaming, socializing, trading and building over its NFT lands. 
It allows tokenized contant creation (according to its content policy, with a toolset builder environment), content presentation and possibly monetization.

Decentraland was first introduced as a proof-of-concept in 2015, and held its first public sell of $Land and $MANA erc-20 tokens in 2017. It is of Web3 metaverse pioneers and still top significant projects.

Decentraland decision-making begins in discussions over social platforms, continues to off-chain community signaling on Snapshot, and finally policies are executed on-chain by its Council multisig accounts on Ethereum and Polygon blockchains.

Treasure is a decentralized NFT ecosystem on Arbitrum built specifically for metaverse projects. Every project listed on Treasure’s marketplace utilizes $MAGIC in their respective metaverses, with each community inventing its own lore and storytelling for this resource. $MAGIC, the native token of Treasure, is the sole currency for marketplace transaction.

Under its DAO oversight of staked $MAGIC holders, Treasure aims to align NFT projects and players, mission, resources and governance so as to facilitate communities in bootstraping new, decentralized metaverses.

Kusama is Polkadot&apos;s Canary network - a multichain Polkadot test environment for &quot;risk-taking, fast moving&quot; development, and a working ecosystem in and by itself. Like Polkadot, Kusama is built on Substrate and serves Substrate&apos;s native parachain, bridges, governance, treasury and other frame palletes. It is owned &amp; governed by its community of tokenholders and specialized parachains, and explicitly set &quot;for change agents to take back control, spark innovation and disrupt the status quo.&quot;&nbsp;

Mycelium builds financial market infrastructure on public blockchain under that is open, transparent, and accessible to all. Founded 2019, it specializes in data provision via the Mycelium Node, and derivatives exchange infrastructure. As of Dec. 2022, it showcases two premier financial products:Perpetual Swaps: A decentralized derivative exchange, which allows users to open leveraged long and/or short positions on crypto-assetsPerpetual Pools: tools for making easily-redeemable leveraged tokens, that short and long on their traced asset.
Mycelium&#39;s derivative technology was brought into the organization in its August 2022 landmark merge with Tracer DAO - the developer & maintainer of permissionless, parameter-flexible trading tools for DeFi derivatives. The rebrand into Mycelium included a token shift from $TCR to $MYC, brought the Tracer treasury under Mycelium tokenomics, and effectively ceased any action on Tracer DAO&#39;s Snapshot voting space. According to Mycelium documentation, its active governance bodies are its Treasury Management and Growth Fund addresses listed here.
For context and documentation, we also present here informative Tracer DAO resources including its Github address and its Snapshot governance.
