Governance

The Limelight platform employs a decentralized governance model, enabling LMLT token holders to influence key operational decisions, including the distribution of rewards, adjustments to the exposure algorithm, and other critical ecosystem parameters. This governance framework is designed to ensure that the platform evolves in alignment with the community's interests and the music industry's dynamic landscape.

Governance Mechanism

Voting Rights

  • LMLT Token Holders: Ownership of LMLT tokens grants the right to participate in governance decisions. The number of tokens held is directly proportional to the voting power of an individual.

  • Delegation: Token holders can delegate their voting rights to another party, consolidating voting power and enabling more active participants to represent the interests of the community.

Proposal Process

  1. Proposal Submission: Proposals can be submitted by any LMLT token holder, provided they meet a predefined threshold of tokens or have been delegated enough voting power.

  2. Discussion and Review: Before voting, proposals are subject to discussion within the community, allowing for feedback, amendments, and refinements.

  3. Voting: Voting on proposals is conducted over a defined period, with outcomes determined by the majority of the voting power exercised.

Key Areas of Governance

Reward Distribution

  • Parameters Adjustment: Governance can adjust parameters affecting how rewards are distributed among artists and listeners, optimizing the incentive mechanisms to encourage platform engagement and content creation.

  • Reward Pool Allocation: Decisions regarding the allocation of LMLT tokens to various reward pools can be made, influencing the emphasis on different platform activities.

Exposure Algorithm

  • Algorithm Updates: Proposals can include updates or modifications to the exposure algorithm, allowing the community to refine how artists gain visibility based on engagement, quality, and other metrics.

  • Criteria Weighting: The relative weighting of different criteria within the exposure algorithm can be adjusted to ensure fairness and support emerging artists.

Platform Development and Features

  • New Features: The community can propose and vote on the introduction of new features and services within the Limelight platform, guiding its development roadmap.

  • Platform Policies: Governance decisions can also cover platform policies, including content guidelines, partnership criteria, and other operational standards.
