# The Marshall DAO

In addition to the existing [decentralized process](https://gov.iotex.io/) for managing Improvement Proposals for the blockchain, IoTeX 2.0 introduces one more important pillar for decentralized governance: [The Marshall DAO (IIP-23)](https://community.iotex.io/t/iip-23-the-marshall-dao/11172). Marshall DAO is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization that will enable IoTeX stakeholders to make proposals regarding how to allocate IOTX incentives to grow the IoTeX ecosystem, including onboarding reputable DePIN projects and funding network-wide initiatives. This creates a transparent and meritocratic system where the best projects are funded using IOTX. allowing stakeholders to contribute to the growth of the IoTeX ecosystem.

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.iotex.io/blockchain/participate/governance/the-marshall-dao.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
