Creating A Proposal
Valuepool members are the only ones capable of deciding what to do with its funds and they do so through proposals. There are two types of proposals:
idea proposals: where the creator of the proposal is submitting an idea for a vote
money proposals: where the creator of the proposal is requesting to withdraw a certain amount
To create a proposal, click on the View Proposals link in the panel of your valuepool
