The Snapshot vote for Season 5 wrapped up on Sunday, October 27. Here’s the final results of the weighted vote:

We had the Giveth Governance call the following day to discuss the voting outcome and ratify the scopes for Season 5 of Working Groups. The [audio recording can be downloaded here](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1224389845460451338/1300513720731959296/Givernance_October_28_2024.m4a?ex=6721c609&is=67207489&hm=59b63d516ca4960fd6859075e652a9e8fe0a8aa5f55f32685de101d24c95120c&). These are the final outcomes:

- Fundraising - **GROW** ↗
- GIVeconomy - **SUSTAIN** ➡
- Quadratic Funding - **SUSTAIN** ➡
- DAO Ops - **SUSTAIN** ➡
- Dapp - **SHRINK** \* ↘

However with the following changes and conditions:

### Fundraising

- Won’t send Jake to DevCon, too late of notice to make happen.
- Will prioritize more senior leadership participation in grants review and writing.

@JakeS might have more to add on additional details I might have overlooked.

### Dapp

- Will still execute certain elements of the Sustain version’s community and communications deliverables, such as:
  - Ambassador Program S3
  - Google Ads Campaign
  - 200 Giveth Zora NFT mints (increased from 50 mints on proposal, since we’ve already surpassed that amount 😵 )

You can view the [original proposal here](https://forum.giveth.io/t/dapp-season-5-proposal/1567). The changes might amount to an extra ~7k in spending on the Dapp, bringing the total estimated DAO wide spending for Season5 to be around ~$189k, under our agreed maximum budget of $200k.

# Additional GIVernance changes.

This Season will last until January 1st, 2025. However moving forward we will extend the length of future season’s by 1 month, to 4 month durations. This will allow more time to execute on proposals and less yearly admin overhead. There will be then 3 Seasons a year instead of 4, Season 6 for example will last from Jan 1st - April 30th, 2025.
