How & Why TESSERACT STAKES Works

Governance Philosophy

TESSERACT STAKES's governance model is built on the principle that those who own and use AI infrastructure should have a voice in how it's deployed and managed.

Through our democratic governance system, we ensure that AI development aligns with human values and serves the broader interests of society rather than a small group of shareholders.

Governance Process

How proposals move from ideas to implementation

Ideation

Community members discuss ideas and potential proposals in the governance forum.

Discussion Forums

Ideas start in our governance forum where community members can discuss, refine, and gather support.

Temperature Check

Informal polls gauge community interest before investing time in formal proposal development.

Voting System

Our governance voting system is designed to be fair, transparent, and resistant to capture by large token holders.

Quadratic Voting

We use a quadratic voting system where voting power scales with the square root of tokens staked, ensuring that large token holders cannot dominate governance decisions.

Delegation

Token holders can delegate their voting power to trusted community members who actively participate in governance discussions and have domain expertise.

Conviction Voting

For certain proposals, we implement conviction voting where voting power increases the longer tokens are committed to a proposal, rewarding long-term thinking.
