STORE Governance Basics
STORE is pioneering a decentralized republic in which each miner on the network is given a single vote. Here is an overview of the Blockchain Governance Family Tree:
- 1.One entity, one vote (as confirmed by Trust Your Network) - irrespective of the size of a miner’s token ownership.
- 2.Trust Your Network - 2/3 of voters need to reach consensus on decisions
- 3.Separation of powers - formal and enforceable roles that prevent gridlock when miner, developer and holder interests diverge. These roles are as follows;
- 1.Security Branch - keeps network safe
- 2.Judicial Branch - makes monetary policy & leadership recommendations
