## 06 Governance

> **Summary:**\
> This chapter describes ANOME’s decentralized governance structure — how proposals are created, discussed, voted, and executed, ensuring transparency, fairness, and long-term community control.

***

### Overview

ANOME’s long-term goal is to evolve into a **fully decentralized autonomous organization (DAO)**.\
Through progressive decentralization, community members will gradually gain control over key decisions, including protocol upgrades, ecosystem funding, and economic parameter adjustments.

Governance participation is based on **ANOME token ownership** and **OG Guild identity**, ensuring that decision-making power aligns with both stake and contribution.

***

### Governance Tools

ANOME adopts a hybrid governance system that combines **off-chain convenience** with **on-chain security**.

| Tool                           | Purpose                                                                                    |
| ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Snapshot**                   | Gas-free off-chain voting for proposal drafts and community sentiment formation.           |
| **Multi-Signature Wallets**    | Managed by core contributors or DAO treasurers for secure execution of approved decisions. |
| **Custom Governance Modules**  | Future upgrade allowing NFTs (e.g., UGC or OG cards) to represent voting identities.       |
| **Tally / Governor Contracts** | On-chain voting and automatic proposal execution.                                          |

> This modular structure allows ANOME’s governance to evolve naturally as the community grows in size and sophistication.

### Governance Proposal Flow

ANOME follows a **three-phase governance model**, inspired by established DAOs such as SushiSwap and Optimism.

#### Phase 1: Community Discussion

* Any user can submit a **draft proposal** on ANOME’s official **Forum** or **Discord**.
* The community discusses the proposal’s merits, risks, and implementation details.
* Feedback is gathered before moving to a formal vote.

#### Phase 2: Snapshot Preliminary Voting

Once community consensus is reached:

* The proposal is uploaded to **Snapshot** for token-weighted voting.
* **Proposal threshold:** must hold at least **10,000 ANOME** to submit.
* **Approval threshold:** “Yes” votes must exceed **50%** of total effective votes.

#### Phase 3: Official On-Chain Execution

If the proposal passes Snapshot:

* It proceeds to **on-chain voting** via **Tally** or the **Governor module**.
* Execution is carried out by multi-signature wallets or automated contracts.
* All parameter changes are **recorded transparently on-chain**.

> This process ensures full community visibility and prevents unilateral decision-making.

### Voting Parameters

| Type of Decision      | Participation Threshold    | Approval Ratio          | Notes                                    |
| --------------------- | -------------------------- | ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| **Regular Proposals** | ≥ 3% of circulating supply | > 50% of votes in favor | Parameter updates, feature activation    |
| **Major Upgrades**    | ≥ 5% of circulating supply | ≥ 66.7% (supermajority) | Tokenomics change, DAO treasury movement |
| **Emergency Actions** | Multi-sig quorum           | Majority sign-off       | Security or protocol recovery measures   |

***

### Governance Incentive Mechanisms

To encourage participation and ensure active governance, ANOME introduces incentive layers modeled after leading DeFi protocols.

#### 1. Proposal Submission Rewards

Users who successfully submit and pass proposals via Snapshot will receive **ANOME token rewards**.

#### 2. Active Voting Incentives

Addresses that participate in multiple voting rounds earn **loyalty bonuses** or **reputation scores**, tracked on-chain.

#### 3. OG NFT Governance Identity

Long-term OG NFT holders gain **governance multipliers**, enhancing their voting weight and granting access to special DAO subcommittees.

#### 4. Joint Governance Initiatives

In the future, ANOME will collaborate with external ecosystems (e.g., partner DAOs, gaming guilds) to host **co-governed proposals**, expanding decision-making beyond a single community.

***

### Transparency and Accountability

ANOME enforces transparency through open data and public auditing:

* All governance results and execution details are **permanently stored on-chain**.
* **Multi-sig signers** are publicly verified and rotated periodically.
* Failed proposals trigger a **cooling-off period**, after which revised proposals can be resubmitted.
* Regular **Governance Reports** summarize participation metrics and upcoming votes.

> This ensures ANOME’s governance remains both democratic and accountable to its stakeholders.

***

### Future Governance Vision

As the ecosystem grows, ANOME plans to implement advanced governance features:

* **Card-Based Governance:** UGC-created NFT cards may serve as proposal or voting tokens.
* **Reputation Scoring:** Voter influence based on consistency, contribution, and performance.
* **Automated Treasury Allocation:** DAO-managed yield strategies for long-term sustainability.
* **Delegated Voting:** Allow token holders to delegate their votes to trusted OG leaders.

***

### Summary

ANOME’s governance model strikes a balance between decentralization and operational efficiency.\
By combining **token-based voting**, **guild representation**, and **transparent execution**, ANOME builds a governance system that grows with its community.

> **Core Principle:**\
> Governance is not control — it’s collaboration.
