Role of Community Peer Review
Security is a cultural responsability shared by the developers, contributors, and community that rely on the system every day.
Axynom treats peer review as a required layer of protocol security. It exists alongside audits and testing and plays a key role in protecting upgrades, contributor flows, and governance logic as the protocol scales.
What Peer Review Means in Practice
Peer review is not symbolic. It is a structured process that allows contributors, stakers, and developers to:
Read and verify smart contract logic
Flag possible bugs, logic errors, or missed edge cases
Review proposed upgrades before they are deployed
Publicly challenge proposals or parameter changes that may affect protocol behavior
Help document contract functionality for future maintainers
It is not a replacement for formal audits, but it often catches issues sooner and strengthens the quality of post-audit development cycles.
Review Surfaces
Community peer review is especially important in:
Upgradable contracts: Proposals to change staking, PoG, or reward logic
Voting logic: Changes to quorum, thresholds, or eligibility
Reward math: Adjustments to APY, penalty formulas, or reward boosts
CaaS deployments: Logic used by partner protocols to assign or pay out GP
Treasury strategy proposals: Allocation, investment, or emergency plans
These areas affect core incentives and protocol safety. Community visibility and input are not optional.
Contributor-Driven Reviews
As the contributor base grows, Axynom will:
Allocate GP rewards for meaningful code reviews or security feedback
Maintain a GitHub contribution program where verified issues, explanations, or documentation contributions are recognized
Allow verified contributors to publish annotations and technical breakdowns within the whitepaper or dev docs
Fund bounties for valid vulnerability disclosures or test case improvements
The peer review process becomes a contribution pathway of its own, rewarding users who help protect and improve the protocol.
Axynom’s security relies on a culture of participation, transparency, and accountability.
When contributors audit each other’s work, the system becomes more than safe. It becomes resilient.
