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

Create a neuron

How to send a proposal

Craft a proposal in markdown

Send proposal via dfx

Check dashboard to see proposal was successful
