micgre edited this page Feb 2, 2018 · 1 revision

Goals

  • Create a governance system that can make dynamic, frictionless changes to the blockchain based on consensus
  • Allow for scaled voting power based on the masternode level the user has
  • Allow for access to governance system across all platforms

Background and strategic fit

Why: Governance is the cornerstone of any blockchain technology as it allows for decentralized, trustless decision making

Product strategy: Implement governance system within the blockchain that can be accessed cross-platform

Assumptions

  • Accessible cross-platform through a user interface
  • Blockchain parameters become variables that can change dynamically based on vote
    • Block time
    • Hash rate
    • Block height
    • Lottery block awards
    • Masternode functions
  • Only masternode holders can vote

Requirements

  • Leadership
  • Dynamic changes to blockchain features As a voter, I want to have voted changes take effect immediately without interruption or the need to fork the protocol
  • Voting UI As a voter, I want an easy to use interface that allows me to review proposals and vote accordingly
  • Proposals As a user who wants to propose a change, I want a simple way to submit proposals to the community
