Governance Scope

Governance in Tythe is bounded by credibility.

It empowers actors to guide evolution — never to alter the protocol’s truth layer.

What Governance Can Control

Domain
Description

Protocol Upgrades

Smart contract and coordination logic updates.

Metric Weightings

Relative weights for DISC computation categories.

What Governance Cannot Control

Domain
Description

DISC Engine Logic

Core credibility computation and scoring rules.

Score or Trust Formula

DISC and Metric Health mathematics are immutable.

Trovebook Entries

Immutable user-validated records cannot be altered.

Identity Verification Standards

zk-KYH/KYB/KYC/KYA rules are non-negotiable.

Credibility Enforcement Layer

BAD Status, Staking, and Credonation logic remain fixed.

Tythe does not allow the foundation of trust — credibility and reputation — to be politicized.


Closing Principle

Governance in Tythe is not power.

It is a privilege earned through credible behavior.

Humans, developers, organizations, and AI Agents each share in shaping Tythe’s evolution — but never its truth layer.

Credibility itself remains beyond governance.
