Metrics-Based Voting - How Quantitative Metrics Shape Better Decisions

AbstractMetrics-based Voting is an emerging class of governance mechanisms that integrates quantitative data with voter preferences to support collective decision-making. In this article, we explore the design space of such systems, with a focus on how metric scores—whether retrospectively measured or predictively generated—can be combined with expressed preferences to allocate resources. Drawing on recent experiments in the crypto sector, we examine key design choices, including the selectio...

Securing Retro Funding Against Malicious Behavior
GovXS’s Evaluation Framework is designed to evaluate retro funding voting systems. It enables the analysis of voting designs and helps communities achieve their prioritized design goals by identifying optimal voting rules. The framework applies both axiomatic analysis and agent-based simulations to ensure comprehensive evaluation. GovXS’s resources provided for retro funding voting design evaluation include:Part 1: Making Optimism Retro Funding StrategyproofPart 2: Measuring Simplicity for Vo...

Measuring Simplicity for Voters at Retro Funding
Voter participation is key to establishing a successful, trusted retrofunding system. Simplicity for voters plays a crucial role in securing participation. This is part 2 of GoXS’ evaluation of Retro Funding Voting Design Tradeoffs, where we show how we measure if voters can easily understand how to achieve their best results. The GovXS framework is designed to evaluate any retrofunding voting system. As an open-source tool, it allows for analysis of previous voting rounds and helps communiti...

Impact=Profit: Finding the Ground Truth in Funding Allocation
This article is Part 4 of a series of articles on Optimism Retro Funding voting designs based on GovXS’s Voting Design Evaluation. The framework allows the assessment of Retro Funding voting systems and enables the Optimism Collective to achieve design goals (i.e., Impact=Profit, Simplicity for Voters) by measuring the performance of optimal voting rules. The framework applies both axiomatic analysis and agent-based simulations to ensure comprehensive evaluation. GovXS’s resources provided fo...
