Governance Metadata Standards​

The Conway ledger era ushers in on-chain governance for Cardano via CIP-1694 | A First Step Towards On-Chain Decentralized Governance, with the addition of many new on-chain governance artifacts. Some of these artifacts support the linking off-chain metadata, as a way to provide context.

There have been three governance metadata standards developed, so far, to define what the off-chain contextual data can look like.
