Members of the Aragon Network (AN DAO), which is open-source software that lets users create and manage decentralized autonomous organizations, are voting on key parts of its planned transition to a new organizational structure.

The first vote will decide what to do with the treasury funds after the DAO is dissolved and then revived under a new framework. The second vote will address the issue of the new DAO’s charter once the new structure goes live. Votes can be cast until Oct. 5.
