# DAO Governance Daily - 2026-09-24

Terminal page updated and verified. The digest:

**Takeaway:** Uniswap's fee expansion closed overnight unopposed ($187M For, zero Against), Lido's buyback dies at 23,000:1 this afternoon, and the other 30 DAOs are dark.

- **Uniswap's operator layer renewed its mandate without a fight.** Both live votes closed yesterday: [Protocol Fee Expansion: Arc](https://snapshot.org/#/uniswapgovernance.eth/proposal/0xe1ac3254ff43d5d780fc6ae1f13a0c027c2ef138fadb316198d3ed814a154b7e) passed 20,221,055 UNI For (**$187.4M**, 382 ballots) against literally zero Against; [Rotate Sentinel Addresses on the DUNI-Owned Earn Vaults](https://snapshot.org/#/uniswapgovernance.eth/proposal/0xa11332c5c326f34fd4d252853378f0041c4baf6a92094a2dbe91ac5c6ad855d9) passed 18,218,613 UNI For (**$168.9M**, 383 ballots) against 0.026 UNI of protest. Yesterday's 5M UNI whale was the last move — the three-wallet bloc (8.0M/5.0M/2.9M = 79%/87% of each total) ratified both, same author on each ballot. One author, one electorate, no opposition: fee program expansion plus the monitoring plumbing that receives the fees, renewed together.

- **Lido's expense/buyback restructuring heads into extinction at 13:39 UTC today.** Of 28.85M LDO cast (2.9% of supply, $11.1M): **28,846,524 Against vs 1,254 For** — a For column worth $483. All five largest ballots are Against (8.1M, 7.4M, 3.4M, 3.2M, 2.0M = 84% of everything cast). Structurally notable: Lido's establishment voted *yes* on the BORG supervisor appointment and the CEX market-making mandate this week — so this is a specific no on this restructuring, not disengagement. [Proposal](https://snapshot.org/#/lido-snapshot.eth/proposal/0x517a6972a1b5ac20b4237b83a794f1ec4230ebe2cd35c293d6c03dafee40980f)

- **SafeDAO queues the next chapter of SAFE token utility — opens 08:20 UTC.** [SEP 56: Fund Safenet Aegis](https://snapshot.org/#/safe.eth/proposal/0x9d226d025170ec4c56adc53dd77dda851da75c712757122c70dea965003278c4) runs 12 days (Accept / Abstain / Make No Changes), continuing the Safenet line after SEP 55's Beta funding and SEP 54's spending pause. The most direct token-rights question on the board right now.

- **The field is otherwise empty — and that's the story.** Three active proposals across all 32 DAOs; the only genuinely new ballot in 24h anywhere is [Decentraland asking if its own X account should "do the bare minimum"](https://snapshot.org/#/snapshot.dcl.eth/proposal/0x7c42ad67a8fbef96009d8f1b8fa9f1a41d23e97b84bd44e25b8db4045675f240) — currently 1 vote, 54K MANA. Centrifuge (OpenSquare) has nothing live either.

Terminal page refreshed: Today's Lead and Active Proposals rewritten with fresh tallies and top-voter tables (now including the pending SEP 56); Token Rights Index and Delegate Watch left untouched.
