MANSSA®
// DAO · WHO DECIDES, AND HOW

Holders
decide.

Stake your $MANSSA, get a vote, and shape the protocol. Holders come first, always.

A DAO is an organization where the people who hold the token vote on decisions, under rules written into the code. Here, you stake your $MANSSA — deposit it to take part — and receive sMANSSA, the token that carries your vote. From there, strong guardrails keep any one player from taking over: no single holder gets more than 5% of the voting power, at least 10% of holders must turn out for a vote to count, and every approved decision waits 48 to 168 hours before it can take effect — long enough for everyone to react. A seven-member Security Council can hit pause in an emergency, nothing more. These rules are the protocol's constitution: fixed in the code from day one, so the token's official launch (the TGE) can only happen once they all work.

// THE FOUR RULES OF VOTING

Rules that protect you.
Built in, not promised.

« Each rule exists for one reason: to protect holders, even if the protocol itself runs into trouble. When you stake to vote, your interest and the protocol's long-term health point the same way — you only win if it stays healthy. Governance isn't a layer added on top; it's the structure the whole protocol stands on. »

Stake to vote — sMANSSA

Stake your $MANSSA (deposit it to take part) and you receive sMANSSA — the token that carries your vote. Your stake stays locked while a decision is being voted on, so the people deciding are the people committed. Your vote and your stake move together.

Anti-whale cap — 5%

No single holder — a "whale" — can ever control more than 5% of the vote, even if they own more (splitting across wallets doesn't help). The same ceiling applies to everyone, so power stays with the many, not the few. The protocol belongs to its community.

Quorum — 10% must turn out

A quorum is the minimum turnout for a vote to count. Here, holders representing at least 10% of the tokens must take part — otherwise the proposal fails, however popular. No quiet change can slip through on a thin vote.

Proposal deposit — 10K $MANSSA

To put a proposal to a vote, you lock 10,000 $MANSSA up front. You get it all back unless the proposal was fraudulent. This filters out spam and keeps the agenda to serious proposals only.

// Doctrine

« The Security Council holds a single power: it pauses execution to suspend a threat in an emergency. » The seven members serve two years, renewable once. Their names are public, their role is set in legal mandate, and they are paid from the protocol treasury — never anonymous, never volunteers.

// THE WAITING PERIOD

Two delays.
Enforced by the contract.

« A forced wait is the fairest check there is: every approved decision must sit and wait before it can take effect — so nothing happens in the dark. »

T148hStandard — routine changes and grants
T2168hSensitive — bonding, treasury moves over 1%, code upgradescardinal

A timelock is a mandatory delay between a decision and the moment it takes effect. The 48-hour delay covers fast attacks and gives holders time to react. The 168-hour delay applies to anything sensitive: changes to bonding, treasury moves above 1% of supply, code upgrades, or oracle changes (the oracle is the system that feeds real-world prices on-chain). Every proposal, without exception, must wait out its delay in full.

// FIRST-HOLDER · GOVERNANCE

The protocol keeps holders first
through its own risks.

« First-Holder is the rule that outranks all the others: in every decision, holders come first — always. It's not a slogan here; it's wired into how each mechanism works. »

Opposable to TGE
  • 01Stake $MANSSA, receive sMANSSA, vote — your interest and the protocol's are tied together by design.
  • 02The 5% anti-whale cap can't be voted away — it holds even when a vote tries to override it.
  • 03The waiting periods are enforced by the code itself — a decision can only take effect once its delay has fully run out.
  • 04The Security Council can do exactly one thing: hit pause. It can never approve, change, or push anything through — and that limit is the whole point.
