Butane Assembly

PreviousButane Governance and DevelopmentNextButane Improvement Proposals (FIPs)

Last updated 1 year ago

Butane Assembly is a governance body formed from particularly active members of the Butane community. Its formation is the first step in transitioning full governance and ownership over the Butane platform to the community.

Currently, Butane Assembly consists of five Butane ecosystem members independent from Butane Foundation who have shown consistent dedication and commitment to the project, and already have a voice within the community.

Butane Assembly's current role includes the following:

  • taking over the control over the community discussion platform;

  • implementing the Snapshot voting mechanism on Butane; and

  • managing the Community Token Pool.

Community Token Pool

Butane Assembly's budget will be initially constituted by the Community Token Pool. Each month, 200,000 BBC will be allocated to it from the Butane Bootstrap Pool (discussed ).

Butane Assembly will regularly distribute the Community Token Pool funds to finance grants, bounties, marketing, and other initiatives designed to serve communities building on the platform and drive innovation.
