Olympia Governance Framework

Membership-based governance with on-chain proposals, voting, and execution. Transparent, auditable, and built on Ethereum Classic.

From Proposal to Execution

Five stages from idea to execution — every step on-chain, transparent, and auditable.

Propose

Anyone can submit a governance proposal on-chain. Proposals define the action to execute and the supporting rationale.

Vote

Members cast on-chain votes during a defined voting period. A quorum threshold must be met for the proposal to pass.

Queue

Approved proposals enter a security timelock. This delay provides the community time to review before execution.

Execute

After the timelock expires, the proposal executes automatically. Treasury transfers happen on-chain with full auditability.

Disclose

All outcomes are publicly reported and independently verifiable. Proposal records form a permanent on-chain record.

Treasury Funding

How the Olympia Treasury is funded — sustainably and without impacting miners.

Basefee revenue funds the Olympia Treasury

Block rewards and tips remain completely untouched — miners are unaffected. The treasury receives basefee revenue, voluntary on-chain donations, and mining rewards directed to the treasury address. This creates sustainable, transparent funding without inflation or reduced miner compensation.

Safeguards

Built-in protections that keep governance secure and compliant.

Timelock

Every approved proposal must wait through a configurable delay period before execution. This gives the community time to review, object, or prepare.

Sanctions Screening

On-chain sanctions compliance at three layers: proposal submission, active voting, and execution. Sanctioned addresses cannot participate in governance or receive treasury funds.

Two-Layer Governance

CoreDAO membership NFTs are non-transferable, preventing vote buying and governance manipulation. Public participation is enabled through futarchy prediction markets — ensuring both protocol accountability and broad community input.
