There are two ways to propose a change to the Namada protocol:

1. [**On-chain**](#on-chain-governance) - A proposal is submitted to the Namada blockchain, and the Namada blockchain handles the voting process.
2. [**Off-chain**](#off-chain-governance) - A proposal is submitted to a focal point outside of the Namada blockchain, and the voting process occurs off-chain.

## Spam resistance

Namada governance implements a spam resistance mechanism to prevent the network from being spammed with proposals.
This mechanism is based on the fact that a proposal must be submitted with a deposit of `NAM` tokens.
This deposit is returned to the proposer if the proposal is accepted, and burned otherwise.
This is only possible if the proposal is submitted on-chain, as off-chain proposals are not able to submit a deposit.
