To create a proposal, a user needs to have at least `1,000 TORN`. All proposals must be smart contracts with verified code that are executed from the [governance contract ](https://etherscan.io/address/0x5efda50f22d34F262c29268506C5Fa42cB56A1Ce)\(using `delegatecall`\).

All of these initial parameters are relatively small, since there won’t be many TORN tokens in circulation early on. But as the circulating supply increases, governance may adjust these thresholds.
