Governance Model

AetherDEX operates as a DAO, with $AETH holders driving decisions:

• Proposals: Holders with >1,000 staked $AETH can submit proposals (e.g., chain additions).

• Quadratic Voting: Ensures fair influence across holders.

• Transparency: On-chain records and community discussions via Socials.

• Treasury: DAO-controlled multi-sig wallet for development funds.

Initial governance is team-led, transitioning to full DAO by Q2 2026
