Livepeer is governed by its community. Token holders including Orchestrators, Delegators, and Gateway Operators - collectively decide how the network evolves through on-chain proposals and treasury funding. The **Livepeer Foundation** coordinates this process and stewards the ecosystem's long-term direction.

<CustomDivider />

## The Livepeer Foundation

The Livepeer Foundation (LF) is a Cayman Islands non-profit, announced in April 2025 and formally established in June 2025. Its mission is to steward the long-term vision, ecosystem growth, and core development of the Livepeer Network.

The Foundation is not a replacement for Livepeer Inc - it is a complementary structure designed to coordinate the ecosystem's expanding set of contributors, SPEs, and community initiatives.

| Entity                  | Primary role                                                                          |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Livepeer Inc**        | Original protocol creator; continues core R\&D and the go-livepeer codebase           |
| **Livepeer Foundation** | Ecosystem coordination, strategic roadmap, contributor onboarding, capital deployment |
| **Community Treasury**  | Governed by all LPT stakers on-chain; funds SPEs and ecosystem work                   |
| **GovWorks**            | Meta-governance SPE; supports proposal authors and oversees treasury process          |

<CustomDivider />

## Advisory Boards

In June 2025, the Foundation launched four Advisory Boards to provide structured, community-informed strategic input. Each board drew on 45+ community survey responses and is composed of contributors from Livepeer Inc, the Foundation, Orchestrators, Gateway operators, and Delegators.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Network" icon="network-wired">
    Protocol architecture, performance, infrastructure priorities, and technical roadmap.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Governance" icon="building-columns">
    Treasury operations, proposal processes, decentralisation mechanisms, and GovWorks oversight.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Growth" icon="arrow-trend-up">

  </Card>

  <Card title="Markets" icon="chart-line">
    Token economics, liquidity, exchange access, and market positioning.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

Advisory Boards completed their strategy-setting phase in Q3 2025, producing two key outputs:

1. **Phase 1 Strategic Pillars** (published 10 July 2025)
2. **Phase 2 Tactical Recommendations** (published 30 July 2025)

These recommendations fed directly into the Workstreams execution framework.

<CustomDivider />

## Workstreams

In August 2025, the Livepeer Foundation introduced **Workstreams** - nine focused execution areas that translate Advisory Board strategy into concrete, contributor-facing work. Each workstream has a phased roadmap (Now / Next / Beyond).

## Special Purpose Entities (SPEs)

SPEs are the primary mechanism for funded community work. Any community member can propose an SPE - a working group with a specific mandate, funded by an on-chain treasury vote.

**Notable SPEs active in 2025:**

| SPE                  | Approved | Funding    | Mandate                                         |
| -------------------- | -------- | ---------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| GovWorks             | Feb 2025 | -          | Meta-governance and treasury coordination       |
| AI Video SPE Stage 4 | Jun 2025 | 56,560 LPT | ComfyStream, BYOC containers, AI infrastructure |
| LiveInfra            | Jul 2025 | 7,152 LPT  | Community Arbitrum Node, 99.9% uptime           |
| GWID                 | May 2025 | 6,600 LPT  | Gateway wizard and simplified Gateway operation |
| LISAR                | Sep 2025 | 4,450 LPT  | Fiat-to-delegation Gateway (USD, EUR, GBP, NGN) |
| Transformation       | Sep 2025 | 44,500 LPT | Capital, Builders, and Development coordination |

### How to propose an SPE

The process is defined and maintained by GovWorks. The full guide is at [forum.livepeer.org/t/livepeer-governance-process/2767](https://forum.livepeer.org/t/livepeer-governance-process/2767).

<Steps>
  <Step title="Develop your idea">
    Check existing SPEs and the [SPE Dashboard](https://www.notion.so/SPE-Dashboard-cd7e27da8dd54820b1aaea5b0b33541b) to confirm your proposal fills a genuine gap. Consider whether applying to an existing SPE's grants programme (e.g., Transformation SPE) is a better fit than a standalone treasury proposal.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get early feedback">
    Post a Pre-Proposal in the [Treasury category](https://forum.livepeer.org/c/treasury/18) using the [SPE Proposal Template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/11I8ds1-tA1PaYU5rxJ58eodR-JfsjuyOm2pXXE-O6ow/edit). Leave at least 7 days for community discussion. Attend a Treasury Talk or Water Cooler call in Discord to get direct feedback.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Build community support">
    Tag `@Orchestrator` in the Discord `#governance` channel to notify active validators. Surface the proposal on social media. Quorum requires 33% of all active stake - visibility is critical.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit on-chain">
    Submit your final proposal at [explorer.livepeer.org/treasury](https://explorer.livepeer.org/treasury). You need at least **100 LPT staked** to submit. GovWorks can connect you with a staker if needed - contact them via the [GovWorks Notion Hub](https://www.notion.so/GovWorks-SPE-caa4a5442ddb4014b1f0e85aba4dce47).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Voting period">
    After a \~21-hour delay, a 10-round voting window opens (approximately 9 days). Any Orchestrator or staked Delegator can vote For, Against, or Abstain via the Explorer.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Result and implementation">
    The proposal passes with **33% quorum** and **more than 50% For** votes. Funds are released to the specified wallet address. A multi-sig is strongly recommended for team proposals. Publish a transparent execution roadmap and regular update posts on the Forum.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Voting mechanics

All governance votes - both treasury proposals and protocol parameter changes - use the same on-chain system anchored in Arbitrum.

| Parameter                          | Value                              |
| ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| Minimum stake to submit a proposal | 100 LPT (staked)                   |
| Voting delay after submission      | \~21 hours                         |
| Voting period                      | 10 rounds (\~9 days)               |
| Quorum threshold                   | 33% of all active stake must vote  |
| Passing threshold                  | More than 50% of votes must be For |
| Vote options                       | For, Against, Abstain              |

Orchestrators vote with the weight of their own stake plus delegated stake. Delegators can override their Orchestrator's vote and vote directly - this is called "vote detachment" and is supported in the Livepeer Explorer.

<Warning>
  The LPT emissions model is subject to active governance discussion as of early 2026. A pre-proposal to adjust inflation parameters was published in January 2026. Monitor the [Governance Forum](https://forum.livepeer.org/c/governance/17) for the current status before making delegation or staking decisions based on inflation assumptions.
</Warning>

## Technical governance: LIPs

Protocol-level changes use Livepeer Improvement Proposals (LIPs). The current on-chain treasury and governance framework is defined by LIP-89 through LIP-92 (the Treasury Bundle), ratified in October 2023. These LIPs established the treasury, the 33% quorum rule, and the funding release mechanism.
