Giza Governance
Help us shape the future of the Giza Protocol.
Introduction to Giza Governance
Governance by Expertise
Giza’s governance addresses the fundamental tension between expertise and representation common in protocol governance. Instead of the illusion of direct democracy, where token holders vote on technical matters beyond their expertise, Giza uses a council-based system with delegation, aligning governance power with skin-in-the-game and domain expertise.
