+## Performing On-Chain Votes
+
+### Purpose
+
+This process defines the required steps for Super Validator (SV) operators to create, announce, and manage on-chain vote proposals in alignment with governance requirements.
+
+### Status
+
+This is a draft process based on current practices and agreements recorded during SV Operations meetings. 
+
+### Process
+
+#### 1. Prepare the Proposal
+
+- Draft the vote proposal in accordance with applicable governance requirements (e.g., CIP or tokenomics processes).
+- Ensure the proposal includes:
+  - A **link** to the relevant **CIP vote announcement** or **tokenomics announcement**.
+  - All necessary operational and technical details for SV review.
+
+#### 2. Initiate the On-Chain Vote
+
+- Use the SV UI or the corresponding SV app API to open the on-chain vote.
+- Confirm that the vote summary clearly references the related CIP or tokenomics proposal.
+
+#### 3. Announce the Vote
+
+- Send an email to the **`supervalidator-announce@lists.sync.global`** channel immediately after initiating the vote.
+- The announcement must include:
+  - The **contract ID** of the vote.
+  - A **link** to the CIP or tokenomics announcement.
+  - Any additional relevant context.
+
+#### 4. Approval Before Announcement
+
+- The vote announcement on supervalidator-announce@lists.sync.global **must** be approved by the **lead SV operator** for the proposing organization before it is sent.
+
+#### 5. Record and Follow Up
+
+- Maintain a record of:
+  - The on-chain vote proposal link or contract ID.
+  - The related CIP/tokenomics announcement link.
+  - The date and time of the email announcement.
+- Monitor the vote until it closes, and take any required follow-up actions based on the results.
+
+### Notes
+
+- This process applies to all on-chain votes initiated by SV operators.
+- Consistent announcement formatting helps ensure clarity for all SV
