This article explains one way to submit NNS motion proposals.
Background
To properly follow what is going on, there are a few high-level points worth highlighting:
Only Neurons can submit NNS proposals
Neurons with at least 1 ICP and 6 months of dissolve delay can submit NNS proposals. So the first step is to create such a neuron.
The NNS Governance Canister accepts motion proposals
The Governance Canister is just a canister like any other, so it has a Candid file, it accepts messages, etc... This article describes a way where you can have your local computer send a message to the governance canister (signed on behalf of a neuron) that contains a motion proposal.
One-time setup
Install dfx
1. Navigate to | smartcontracts.org 2. Install `dfx` via
$ sh -ci "$(curl -fsSL https://smartcontracts.org/install.sh)"
Create a neuron
1. Create a private/public keypair
1.1 [ ] Install the keysmith 7: 1.2 [ ] Create seed phrase: $ keysmith generate -o seed.txt 1.3 [ ] Create private.pem: $ keysmith private-key -o private.pem 1.4 [ ] Create Ledger account: $ keysmith account -i 0
