11.2 · Transition governance
The transition makes the network stronger and better coordinated. It does not let discussion volume replace responsibility.
Transition governance moves defined authority down the command stack as the network matures. Node density, PoB history, and compliance infrastructure unlock structured delegation to the regional, track, service, and agent layers. The six never-votable items and the founder accountability thresholds stay fixed throughout.
Core answerHow does authority move down the stack without losing control?
What unlocks itPoB history, node and regional density, compliance and audit capability
The command stack in 11.1 is built to delegate. As the founding period closes, defined matters move from the Conductor and the execution team toward the lower layers. The shift is conditional, evidence-driven, and reversible.
Down to L4 and L5Execution and structured tasks move to the GP team and the agent layer. Each agent works inside a task contract and retains a PoB record.
Down to L6 and L7Regional and track coordination move to Country, City, and Track nodes. Service and standard nodes take on professional delivery and basic participation.
What unlocks delegation
Delegation is not granted by calendar date. It is unlocked when the network can support evidence-based coordination at a lower layer. Three conditions matter most.
PoB history is deep enoughA stable record of verified and settled outcomes lets the network price deal quality and node reliability. Without that history, evidence-based delegation has no base.
Nodes and regions reach densityActive nodes across several markets, with repeatable collaboration, support a standing coordination role rather than a temporary arrangement.
Compliance infrastructure is in placeKey actions can be audited and replayed. Regional structures meet the procedural expectations of each jurisdiction before they take on authority.
Roles are specializedClear boundaries between execution, regional coordination, and service delivery let each layer carry delegated authority without overlap.
What never moves down the stack
Delegation expands participation. It never touches the items the Constitution places outside any vote. The six never-votable items, set out in 11.4, stay with the responsible layers regardless of how the network matures.
A successful transition shows in shorter decision delays, more consistent delivery, and complete audit trails. A rising count of proposals, on its own, is not a sign of health.
Moves down as the network maturesStructured deal-process suggestions with nodes, regional market feedback, scoped execution, and parameter suggestions inside the Constitution's bounds.
Stays with the responsible layersCore privacy protection, AML and compliance enforcement, the integrity of formed PoB records, signed legal agreements, the interests of absent minorities, and long-term sustainability.
How a matter is delegated
Each delegation follows a defined path. Authority is stated in writing, bound to evidence, aligned with the non-votable list, and reviewed on a schedule.
Define the authority
State the scope, the term, the conflict-disclosure duty, and the escalation path for the delegated matter.
Align with the non-votable list
Confirm the matter sits outside the six never-votable items. No transitional step reaches them.
Bind it to evidence
Link the delegated authority to PoB and internal-control records, so facts govern the decision rather than opinion.
Review on a schedule
Check each quarter, or after a major event, whether the authority has been misused or has expired.
Transition governance is the bridge between founder-led direction and broader participation. It expands the scope of who decides what, while the Constitution's limits stay fixed and the chain of responsibility stays intact.
