BIP-9 offers a proposal state diagram to illustrate the various stages and transitions for a proposal, as shown in <<bip9states>>.
Proposals start in the +DEFINED+ state, once their parameters are known (defined) in the bitcoin software. For blocks with MTP after the start time, the proposal state transitions to +STARTED+. If the voting threshold is exceeded within a retarget period and the timeout has not been exceeded, the proposal state transitions to +LOCKED_IN+. One retarget period later, the proposal becomes +ACTIVE+. Proposals remain in the +ACTIVE+ state perpetually once they reach that state. If the timeout is elapsed before the voting threshold has been reached, the proposal state changes to +FAILED+, indicating a rejected proposal. +REJECTED+ proposals remain in that state perpetually.
