Celo uses a formal onchain governance mechanism to manage and upgrade the protocol. This guide explains how to participate in governance using Celo Mondo.
As of block height 31,056,500 (March 26, 2025, 3:00 AM UTC), Celo is no longer a standalone Layer 1 blockchain—it is now an Ethereum Layer 2! Some documentation may be outdated as updates are in progress. If you encounter issues, please file a bug report.
