-      The first phase of Starknet Governance has been launched (more
-      details [here](https://www.starknet.io/en/posts/governance/starknets-governance-first-phase)).
-      From now on, community members can participate in shaping Starknet through
-      a further channel, namely voting on protocol changes.
+      Starknet governance focuses on Starknet protocol upgrades. In its first
+      phase, every Starknet version upgrade will be deployed on Goerli Testnet;
+      voters will then have a few days period to examine and test the upgraded
+      version as it runs on Goerli. During this time, a Snapshot proposal will
+      be opened, and the community can vote on whether to approve or reject the
+      upgraded version for Mainnet deployment.
 
 
-      In its first phase, Starknet governance will focus on Starknet protocol upgrades. Every Starknet version upgrade will be deployed on Goerli Testnet; voters will then have a 6-day period to examine and test the upgraded version as it runs on Goerli. During this time, a Snapshot proposal will be opened, and the community can vote on whether to approve or reject the upgraded version for Mainnet deployment.
+      If the proposal gains a majority of ‘YES’ votes during the voting period, the proposal passes and Starknet mainnet will be upgraded accordingly.
 
 
-      If the proposal gains a majority of ‘YES’ votes during the six-day voting period, the proposal passes and Starknet mainnet will be upgraded accordingly. We expect the vote on [Starknet Alpha v0.12.0](https://docs.starknet.io/documentation/starknet_versions/upcoming_versions/#what_to_expect) to be open soon.
