We are pleased to announce the publication of our study, "Decentralized Governance: Advancing Decision-Making in DLT and DAOs" This research addresses key challenges in decentralized governance, proposing a novel approach that integrates the Borda procedure with representative democracy for more scalable and efficient voting in DAOs.

Key Contributions:
🔹 Enhancing scalability and voter rating efficiency
🔹 Applying cooperative game theory with the Shapley vector for fair reward distribution
🔹 Introducing token-curated ranked registries (TCRRs) for structured governance
This research is part of our ongoing effort to enhance decentralized governance, making decision-making in DAOs more scalable, fair, and efficient. By addressing fundamental challenges in voting mechanisms and governance structures, we aim to contribute to the long-term evolution of decentralized systems, fostering more inclusive, transparent, and adaptable frameworks for the future.
