Radium governance isn't just decision-making—it's complete operations embedded in native machine code. Unlike traditional blockchain governance that relies on external contracts or manual implementation, Radium governance is part of the core consensus rules, making every proposal binding and automatically executable.
Core Advantages
Native Implementation
Governance runs as native machine code, not vulnerable smart contracts or buggy external programs. Proposals are processed through the same consensus mechanism that secures the entire network, ensuring governance decisions have the same security guarantees as base layer transactions.
Complete Operations
Governance handles the full lifecycle from proposal to funding to execution. The treasury automatically collects fees from all network activity—both native coin and token transactions—creating a sustainable funding mechanism for network development and community initiatives.
Delegate-Driven Authority
Only those operating delegate nodes can create proposals and cast votes, ensuring governance participants have real skin in the game. This creates alignment between those making decisions and those responsible for network security and operation.
Technical Foundation
Proposals are submitted on-chain with references to off-chain descriptions and community discussions, combining the transparency of public discourse with the finality of consensus-backed execution. When a proposal passes, the network automatically implements the changes or distributes the requested funding—no multisigs, no trusted parties, no implementation delays.
The treasury's fee-based funding model ensures the network can sustain itself and fund improvements without relying on external grants or centralized decision-making. Every transaction contributes to the ecosystem's growth, creating a self-reinforcing cycle of usage and development.
