BITY Nodes Governance

END DAO

The Ethereum Node Development DAO (END DAO) governs the long-term maturation of the BITY Nodes Protocol through controlled decentralization, constitutional supply discipline, and multi-decade stewardship.

Controlled Maturation

END DAO follows a controlled maturation into decentralization model. The protocol is designed to protect early-stage integrity, prevent reckless governance capture, and gradually diffuse control over time.

Founders retain early-stage influence and blocking capability during the protocol’s formative years, with that influence intentionally diluting through emissions, airdrops, and expanded participation.

Constitutional Supply Structure

Total Supply Cap: 1,000,000,000 BITS

  • 20% — Founders & Team
  • 10% — Continuity & Proof-of-Care Airdrop
  • 20% — Market Allocation
  • 50% — Node Reward Allocation

The supply cap cannot be increased by governance, and founder allocation cannot be expanded by governance.

Revenue Model

END DAO is designed around service-based protocol revenue.

  • Brains-as-a-Service (BaaS)
  • Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
  • Nodes-as-a-Service (NaaS)

Year 1: 50% Founders / 50% Treasury Reserve

Post DAO Activation: 70% Node Fund / 30% Founders

DAO Activation

DAO Activation Date: March 1, 2027

Governance is designed to activate after the protocol’s early formation period, allowing the network to mature before wider governance participation expands.

Airdrop & Emissions

Airdrop Pool: 100,000,000 BITS over 5 years

Eligibility may be weighted by continuity integrity, Proof of Care participation, and governance-approved weighting within constitutional limits.

Node Reward Allocation: 500,000,000 BITS

Emission Structure: 40-year linear emission at 12,500,000 BITS per year

Governance Thresholds

  • Tier 1 — Operational Decisions: 70%
  • Tier 2 — Treasury & Economic Decisions: 70%
  • Tier 3 — Constitutional Decisions: 75%

END DAO uses a pure floating quorum model based on voting-enabled circulating supply at the time of vote.

Long-Term Objective

END DAO is engineered for multi-decade sustainability, structural supply discipline, transparent stewardship, and intergenerational continuity.

The protocol is designed to mature into decentralization — not simulate it prematurely.
