Igra DAO
Igra Network is governed by the Igra Association and $IGRA token holders via Igra DAO. The DAO is live at genesis.
What is the Igra Association?
A Swiss non-profit association (Verein) registered in Zug, Switzerland (reg number: CHE-138.661.280). It serves as the legal steward of the network.
The Association handles protocol development, regulatory compliance, and manages its own operational funds from token sales. It cannot veto DAO decisions.
What is Igra DAO?
The on-chain governance system for Igra Network, live from genesis. Token holders submit and vote on proposals via Tally, with discussion on Discord.
Voting power combines delegated $IGRA tokens (including locked tokens once minted) and attester effective stake.
What can the DAO control?
Attestation
Exit cooldown, activation delay, penalty cooldown, minimum stake
Slashing
Slash ratios, challenger rewards, missed attestation penalties
Economics
Emission rate (attester APY), gas refund limits, protocol fees
Protocol contracts
Any contract can be redeployed and references updated via governance vote
Distribution
Ecosystem and Community pool allocations
All governance ownership is verifiable on-chain.
How do proposals work?
Any token holder meeting the proposal threshold can submit a proposal. After a voting delay, votes run for a fixed window (For / Against / Abstain). Passage requires quorum (dynamic % of total voting power, immutable at deployment) plus simple majority. Execution is immediate — no timelock. This is a deliberate choice: faster governance at the cost of no exit window.
What is immutable?
These cannot be changed by governance or anyone:
Maximum token supply (10,000,000,000 IGRA)
Quorum percentage (set at deployment)
Token contract logic
Governance contract mechanics
Vesting schedules (retroactively)
Can the protocol be paused?
No. Igra is a based rollup: anyone running a node can submit transactions to Kaspa L1. There is no sequencer, no kill switch, no admin override.

How is voting power distributed at TGE?
At TGE, voting power is concentrated among early participants. This is typical for new networks and dilutes as tokens vest and distribute.

Ecosystem (22%) and Community (25%) pools are held in contracts and do not vote. These tokens distribute over 60 months via DAO-approved allocations, progressively shifting voting power to active participants.
What prevents insider control?
Association cannot veto DAO decisions
Immutable quorum percentage ensures governance thresholds cannot be lowered by insiders
Ecosystem and Community pools (47% of supply) dilute insiders over time
No timelock enables rapid community proposal execution
Attester stake adds non-token voting power from network operators
