In essence, every order from the admin(the group of core developers) has to pass through this contract and is delayed for 24 hours before taking effect. To be specific, the execution command for the order goes to the queue, waiting to be executed when the 24h delay is passed. This is a security feature that enables the community to see any upcoming updates and prepare in advance for them. If anything looks suspicious, they can pull their funds from the protocol before the update takes effect.
