Community-driven open governance

Protocol development and standards evolution guided by stakeholders including developers, institutions, and industry participants.

Governance structure

Multi-stakeholder governance ensures balanced representation and transparent decision-making.

Token-based voting

Protocol token holders participate in governance decisions including technical upgrades, standard updates, and treasury allocation.

Voting power proportional to stake, with measures to prevent centralization and ensure broad participation.

Quadratic voting

For certain decisions, quadratic voting mechanisms reduce the influence of large stakeholders and amplify community voices.

Particularly relevant for standards development and public goods funding decisions.

Proposal process

Structured pathway from idea to implementation ensures thorough review and community input.

1

Discussion

Ideas are posted to community forums for informal discussion and refinement

2

Draft proposal

Formal proposal submitted with technical specifications and implementation plan

3

Review period

Minimum review window allows stakeholders to analyze impacts and suggest modifications

4

Voting

On-chain vote with transparent tallying and configurable quorum requirements

5

Implementation

Approved proposals enter development queue with community-tracked progress

Stakeholder participation

Different stakeholder groups contribute unique perspectives to protocol development.

Developers

Technical contributors propose improvements to SDKs, APIs, and protocol infrastructure. Developer grants program funds open-source tooling and integrations.

Industry participants

Businesses using BOLI for asset tokenization provide feedback on standards development and propose new use cases. Industry working groups focus on sector-specific requirements.

Financial institutions

Banks, exchanges, and asset managers contribute expertise on compliance, risk management, and market infrastructure needs.

Verifiers

Node operators and verification providers participate in protocol security decisions and economic mechanism design.

Standards development

BOLI Asset Standards evolve through community-driven process with industry input and technical review.

Working groups

Industry-specific groups develop standards for their sectors, ensuring practical applicability and adoption

Technical review

Security audits and implementation analysis before standards are finalized

Versioning

Backward compatibility maintained through semantic versioning and migration paths

Public comment

Draft standards published for community feedback before adoption votes

Treasury management

Protocol revenue funds development, grants, and ecosystem growth through transparent allocation decided by governance.
