A warm hello to the best community on the planet :))))

Governance Period 8 voting will open at the start of September, and we are seeking your feedback on the drafted measures before adding them to the ballot.

The overall governance rewards allocation for Governance Period 9 will be 40M Algo.

As introduced last month, we are posting the proposed measures in three threads to facilitate the discussion, as below:

**[Topic - xGov Pilot Algo Allocation](https://forum.algorand.co/t/gp8-measures-draft-xgov-grants-allocation/10196)**

Measure 1 - Approval of xGov pilot program allocation top up mechanism  
Measure 2 - xGov top up amount

**[Topic - NFT Rewards](https://forum.algorand.co/t/gp8-measures-draft-nft-rewards-program/10195)**

Measure 3 - Repeat of NFT Rewards program with terms and conditions modification approval  
Measure 4 - Increase the NFT Rewards Allocation

**[Topic - DeFi Rewards](https://forum.algorand.co/t/gp8-measures-draft-defi-rewards-allocation/10194)**

Measure 5 - DeFi Rewards Q4 Allocation  
**Measure 6 - Consensus Rewards Pilot Program via Targeted DeFi rewards**  
**Measure 7 - Allocation of DeFi rewards to Targeted DeFi Rewards specifically for the Consensus Rewards programs via DeFi protocols**

> **IMPORTANT**  
> _Please add your feedback to each topic and share this post on your favorite social channels._

We will consider your feedback and add the measures to the governance portal a few days before the voting session opens on 1 September.

Looking forward to reading your posts!

Adri & Michele
