Contributor as a Stakeholder

Axynom treats contributors as core participants in the protocol, not external helpers. Their work creates value, so the system gives them a way to earn value in return.

This changes the default position of the contributor. They are no longer passive supporters. They are stakeholders.

Through Growth Points, contributors receive:

• A record of their involvement

• Access to rewards

• Future governance power

• Long-term visibility within the protocol

This is not symbolic. It is structural.

Comparison: Traditional Roles vs Axynom Roles

Role	Traditional Protocols	Axynom
Community member	Follows updates	Can earn reputation and influence
Promoter	Works for exposure or tips	Gets on-chain credit and GP
Designer	Commission-based, short-term	Can become a recurring contributor
Researcher	Work stays off-chain	Tracked, verified, and rewarded
Builder	Often sidelined without connections	Positioned as a long-term stakeholder

This structure encourages consistent effort. It also makes the protocol more resilient, because the people growing it are directly tied to its outcome.

The more you contribute, the more you matter.
