“Governance” usually sounds like a separate layer. In practice, it shows up when you try to access data, share it across teams, or ship something to production. Check out this guide to see how Snowflake handles governance inside the data platform itself, including: ✨ Access control built into queries and pipelines ✨ Policies applied directly to data ✨ Consistent governance across apps and workflows

Governance isn't slowing innovation, it’s enabling it. Snowflake CMO Denise Persson unveils the 5th Modern Marketing Data Stack report. Get the blueprint for the agentic enterprise. 👉🏻

📢 Governance Notice for veHNT Holders 📢 If you've delegated your veHNT position, that delegation expires tonight, August 1 at 00:00 UTC (or at your position's lockup end, if that came sooner). Once it expires, your position stops earning delegation rewards, and rewards for the days after expiry are never accrued to your position at all. They aren't held for you and can't be recovered later, so renew today. (Rewards you earned while delegated never expire; you can claim those whenever.) ➡️ Renewing is simple: it's a one-click extension, not a full re-delegation. Go to the Governance section on or the Helium Wallet app (iOS / Android), and hit extend on your delegation. That's it. No need to un-delegate or claim anything first. It extends in place and keeps earning through next August 1, 2027 (or your lockup end, whichever comes first). ➡️ If you miss tonight's deadline: The one-click extend won't be available anymore. You'll have to claim all outstanding epochs, un-delegate, then delegate again from scratch, and you'll permanently lose rewards for every day you're expired. Don't put it off. ➡️ Separately: check your proxy, but only if you use one. If you've assigned someone to vote on your behalf, that proxy assignment also expires tonight and needs to be re-assigned. This matters for rewards: each daily epoch's rewards are only paid if your position voted on at least 2 of the 4 most recent HNT proposals (votes cast by your proxy count the same as your own). A proposal that's still open also counts in your favor; you're only penalized for proposals you let close without voting. If your position falls below the threshold, that epoch's rewards are burned when claimed, permanently, not withheld. So either keep an active proxy or vote on proposals yourself. If you vote directly, you don't need a proxy at all. *⃣ A few practical notes: • Changes take effect at the next daily rewards epoch (UTC midnight), so allow up to ~24 hours before they show up. • Keep at least ~0.01 SOL in your wallet for transaction fees. • If you have "autoclaim" on and you don't vote, turn autoclaim off. "Autoclaim" claims each epoch shortly after it closes, and if your position is below the 2-of-4 voting threshold at that moment, the claim burns that epoch's rewards immediately. Claiming manually lets you vote on any still-open proposal first. Also, on smaller positions the per-claim crank cost can exceed the HNT claimed, so manual claiming on a longer interval may be cheaper regardless.
