Voting Power (AXY + GP)
Voting power in Axynom is determined by two complementary factors: AXY staked and Lifetime Growth Points (GP) accumulated.
This dual-weight model ensures that governance is balanced between financial commitment and active contribution. Participants who have invested capital in the protocol and those who have invested effort both have a say in its direction.
The voting system is designed to prevent domination by passive holders while rewarding contributors who have consistently supported the ecosystem.
AXY Staked
AXY staking serves as the primary economic foundation for governance eligibility. Participants who stake AXY for any lock duration are eligible to vote on proposals, contribution approvals, and operational matters.
Voting weight from staking is proportional to:
Amount of AXY staked
Lock duration (longer locks may receive enhanced weight if enabled through governance)
Only actively staked AXY counts toward voting power. Liquid, unstaked AXY held in wallets or exchanges is excluded to prevent vote manipulation through temporary balance shifting.
Lifetime GP
Lifetime GP represents a participant’s historical contribution to the protocol. It measures cumulative effort rather than capital.
Participants who surpass a defined threshold (e.g., 250 Lifetime GP) gain additional voting weight, independent of their AXY holdings.
Lifetime GP cannot be transferred or sold.
It does not decay or expire.
It serves as a permanent, on-chain record of value creation.
This ensures that contributors who have consistently supported Axynom with work, even if they are not major token holders, retain a meaningful voice in governance.
Combined Voting Weight
Voting power for any eligible participant is calculated as a sum of two components:
AXY Voting Weight
Based on total AXY staked and lock conditions
GP Voting Weight
Based on total Lifetime GP accumulated
The protocol may apply governance-set ratios to balance the relative impact of capital vs contribution, depending on the governance phase and growth needs.
For example:
1 staked AXY could equal 1 vote
10 Lifetime GP could equal 1 vote
Final ratios are flexible and adjustable through governance proposals.
Safeguards and Rules
To preserve governance integrity:
Minimum AXY stake and/or Lifetime GP thresholds are required to participate in voting.
Wallets attempting to game the system (e.g., splitting stakes to inflate influence) can be mitigated through aggregation or anti-sybil measures.
Voting activity is recorded transparently and auditable through governance dashboards.
Participation is tied to real commitment, not temporary influence.
Axynom’s voting power system is designed to be fair, resilient, and future-proof. It aligns protocol governance with the people who build, grow, and believe in it, across both capital and contribution dimensions.
