As the Foundation winds down, control of the primary web presence must move to the community. The RFC covers a new design, information structure, and independent hosting so the DAO owns its top-of-funnel.
Two tracks, and only one has moved (2 August 2026)
The interim hosting migration has passed a temperature check. On 23 July 2026 Timan (Astrolescent) filed Proposal: Move the Radix Website to Cloudflare: take a static copy of the existing Webflow site, host it on Cloudflare, review it for broken links and missing integrations, connect the existing domain once verified, and maintain it until the DAO exists and can decide the long-term direction – removing roughly $200 per month of Webflow hosting cost along the way. It is explicitly a preservation measure with a rollback path, not a redesign. The Council put it to the community as Temperature Check 5 on 25 July alongside Daffy's Stokenet proposal; both passed, and on 28 July it was lifted to binding, XRD-weighted Governance Proposal 2. It closed on 4 August 2026 at 06:44 UTC with 56 ballots cast, every one of them Approve and none against, and the weight behind the voting accounts clears the 671,470,000 XRD quorum by roughly 40% – but as of 11 August no result had been announced, by the Council or by anyone else.
The redesign itself is still an RFC. Vlad's RFC of 19 February 2026 – a new site built from scratch, merging the pages and subdomains scattered across the ecosystem rather than migrating them as they are – has had no temperature check and no vote. The two are complements, not rivals: if Proposal 2 passes it buys the time that RFC asks for, and it settles nothing the RFC proposes.
Execution began (18 August 2026)
The vote's result was never published; the work started anyway. On 18 August at 07:20 UTC the contributor carrying this workstream told the main Telegram channel they had a meeting that day about the website migration, "per the approved proposal", having cleared the DAO preparations that had held it up. It is the first public treatment of Governance Proposal 2 as carried — no tally has been announced by anyone, fourteen days after the ballot closed.
The mechanism is a conversion, not a rebuild. At 10:49 UTC they reported the site being moved off its static export onto an Astro site hosted on Cloudflare, generated with a coding agent from a requirements document. At 12:09 the first attempt was thrown away because it had produced a whole new design and forgotten it was meant to convert the existing static export. That correction keeps the work inside what the ballots actually approved: Proposal 2 is a preservation measure, and the redesign above it remains an RFC nobody has voted on. Progress is to be reported publicly, with the community asked to check for errors at the 80/20 point.
A second site already exists, and it is not this one. radixdao.org — the interim official venue the DAO's on-chain register names — went up without an announcement; a member dated its appearance to Wednesday 12 August and others said they had never heard of it. It serves the governance documents, the verification register and the voting entry point, and it is itself an Astro site. The division of labour was put to the contributors and confirmed: radixdlt.com carries marketing, technology and commercial material; radixdao.org carries DAO documentation and governance. The requirement for a separate venue surfaced while the DAO's submission papers were being finalised, which is why it arrived ahead of any announcement rather than after one. This RFC therefore governs one of two sites, and only the smaller question — what radixdlt.com becomes — is still open.
Deliverables
- Agree design, structure, and hosting ownership.
- Migrate content and domains (ties to the Foundation asset transfer).
- Stand up community-run hosting + maintenance.
Dependencies & cross-references
- Governed by Daffy's Radix DAO framework (repo
Shadaffy/radix-dao); see the Governance Framework Reference Repo and Charter (Round 1). - Depends on domain/brand transfer.
