Cycle 6 is in progress right now. This thread has the following purposes:

1. encourage the community to make last-minute proposals if desired (e.g., compensation)
2. cover outstanding proposals
3. alert the start of voting cycle phases
4. review results when available
5. announce the re-opening of the proposal phase for Cycle 6

The schedule for Cycle 6 voting is as follows:

- proposal phase ends at block 598 746 (just a few hours from the time of this post)
- voting takes place between blocks 598 897 and 599 346
- vote reveal takes place between blocks 599 357 and 599 806
- vote results are known shortly afterward, and next proposal phase opens

Each of these phases will be announced as new comments in this thread. Follow this thread so you don’t miss the announcements.

**Last-minute proposals**

Generally, proposals should be thoroughly-considered and thoughtfully written, and (ideally) informally discussed with the community beforehand to gauge general opinion ([see guidelines here](https://docs.bisq.network/proposals.html#guidelines)). Therefore it probably wouldn’t be a good idea to make a brand-new proposal now (it would, however, be a good time to plan, discuss, and draft a proposal for the upcoming voting round).

Exception: compensation. If you’ve done work for the Bisq network in this cycle, feel free to post a compensation request. [Click here for instructions on how to do that](https://docs.bisq.network/compensation.html).

**Outstanding Proposals**

Aside from compensation requests, [which are documented here](https://github.com/bisq-network/compensation/issues), these are the proposals up for vote:

Proposals to change a parameter

- Lower BSQ maker fee [(link)](https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/126)
- Lower BSQ taker fee [(link)](https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/126)

Generic proposals

- Integrate Monero wallet ([link](https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/110))

Please read through the proposals for more information.

Apologies for the last minute proposal but since it’s just Fee parameter changes, I think it will be pretty easy for voters to decide. And if there needs to be a few weeks of discussion to come to consensus, then there is always Cycle 7. Thanks!

No, thanks for doing it. It crossed my mind earlier today but I thought it was too late. This could’ve been done in the last cycle.
