Operational answers for upgradeable contracts, governance roles, deployment safety, and troubleshooting.
A DAO is an on-chain governance model where community members propose ideas and vote on decisions using predefined protocol rules. Instead of centralized control, decision authority is distributed across participants.
A proposal is a structured request for funding or action. In BERT, proposals move through review and voting rounds before they can receive treasury allocation.
On-chain means a state change is recorded on the blockchain. In practice, this gives public traceability for events like votes, role updates, and payouts.
BERT is built around measurable outcomes: ideas, voting, funding, and distribution in one system. The protocol is designed so contributors can verify process integrity on-chain instead of relying on opaque off-chain reporting.
A contributor submits an idea, the DAO evaluates it in structured rounds, voting determines eligible winners, and the treasury distributes grants according to protocol rules. Role guards and upgrade controls protect critical operations.
BTK is the ecosystem token used for governance dynamics and participation incentives in the BERT model. Exact economics depend on your active token policy and network deployment configuration.
Acquisition depends on token launch and distribution policy. Typical paths include community allocations, ecosystem programs, and secondary market access when enabled by the project.
The intended architecture is non-custodial at the protocol level: funds are managed by contracts and permission rules. Operational custody risk still exists at signer and admin key level, so key management remains critical.
