Fantom Mainnet Governance Proposal
By Alex Kampa, George Samman, Quan Nguyen
The Fantom team has been quietly working on a governance structure for mainnet. After studying other existing governance proposals, we believe we have a structure that achieves the following aims:
- Decentralisation: The platform should ultimately be run by the public: community, developers, token holders, and anyone who is a stakeholder.
- Security: Checks-and-balances should be in place to ensure that changes to governance and the underlying platform are robust, secure, and with the consent of stakeholders.
- Participation: Stakeholders can participate by being a tokenholder, running a validator node, or being a member of the moderating or technical committees.
- Efficiency: Changes that are consented to should be implemented efficiently. Rejected proposals should come at a cost, to ensure that only proposals which are likely to be implemented are considered. Hence, each proposal to change the network will require an FTM deposit.
Full details of the proposal are available here: https://github.com/Fantom-foundation/FIPs/blob/master/FIPS/fip-4.pdf.
