FaithGovernance

A decentralized governance protocol for the Stacks ecosystem. FaithGovernance enables communities to create proposals, vote on decisions, and execute governance actions with full transparency on-chain.

Vision

Empowering communities with trustless governance. Every proposal, vote, and execution is recorded on the Stacks blockchain, ensuring immutable and transparent decision-making.

Core Principles

• Decentralized: No single point of control
• Transparent: All actions are on-chain and verifiable
• Community-Driven: Token-weighted voting with delegation support
• Secure: Battle-tested smart contracts with formal verification

Smart Contracts

• Core: Manages proposals, voting periods, quorum, and execution
• Treasury: Holds DAO assets with multi-sig authorization
• Adapters: Extensible execution layer for custom actions

Features

• Proposal creation with configurable parameters
• Token-weighted voting with delegation
• Timelock execution for security
• Multi-signature treasury management
• Real-time governance dashboard
• Mobile-responsive interface

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+
• Clarinet 2.0+
• Leather or Xverse wallet

Installation

git clone https://github.com/faithorji/faithgovernance.git
cd faithgovernance
npm install

Run Tests

npm test
clarinet check

Start Frontend

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev

Governance Flow

1. Propose: Create a proposal with description and execution payload
2. Discuss: Community debates and provides feedback
3. Vote: Token holders cast votes during the voting period
4. Execute: If quorum is met, proposal is queued and executed
