Governance Guide

Understanding Actora Governance

A comprehensive guide to participating in decentralized decision-making. Learn how your voice shapes the future of Actora.

What is Decentralized Governance?

Decentralized governance puts control in the hands of the community. Instead of a central authority making decisions, ACT token holders collectively vote on every major change to the protocol.

This ensures Actora evolves in the direction the community wants, not what a single company decides. Every vote is recorded on-chain, transparent, and automatically executed by smart contracts.

Whether it's allocating treasury funds, approving partnerships, or upgrading the protocol, your stake gives you a real say in how Actora develops.
