The Acre Security Council (ASC) is a committee responsible for managing risks, overseeing protocol upgrades, and executing emergency actions within the Acre ecosystem.
Its key responsibilities include reviewing and approving vault strategies built on Acre before they proceed to a full DAO vote.
The Acre Security Council approves vaults, partners, and strategists.
The Council engages with diverse stakeholders, involving parties related to Acre, such as users, apps, wallets, SDKs, node operators, and other community members, in early decision-making for network upgrades and other related ecosystem strategy around vault integrations.
The Council supports transparent decision-making, facilitating a clear process for discussions and updates, and ensuring all relevant parties are informed.
The ASC uses the public discussion platform site: https://forum.acre.fi/ for communications, proposals, and open discourse.
The ASC established an initial meeting on July 22, 2025 at 10:00am EDT (14:00 UTC) to introduce our inaugural council members, introduce our first governance vote, discuss and review items included in this vote, and provide instructions on how and where to cast votes.
Proposals set forth to the ASC must have sponsorship from an active Security Council member, in order to move onto a tabulated vote.
Proposals are set forth using the public forum: https://forum.acre.fi/.
Once a proposal has received sponsorship and has had ample time for discussion, a member of the ASC may call for a Council vote.
ASC voting procedure takes place asynchronously unless there is a time-sensitive vote requiring immediate attention.
The ASC utilizes Snapshot, an offchain voting platform that acts as a temperature check, found here: https://snapshot.box/#/s:acrebitcoin.eth
Voting procedures utilize a 6/9 quorum, all active ACS members have 1 vote.
Snapshots must run for a minimum period of 5 days. The snapshot platform automatically starts a time clock once a vote has been released.
