# 🗳️ Governance & DAO Framework

At the heart of LERAX Chain lies a decentralized governance model — a **DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization)** — built to ensure long-term sustainability, open innovation, and full community control.

Unlike traditional Web2 platforms where decisions are centralized, LERAX empowers its **node operators** and **core contributors** to shape the future of the network through formal on-chain governance.

All DAO activities — including proposal submissions, voting records, results, fund transfers, and milestones — are **auditable on the LERAX Explorer**.
