Nostr replaces: - Ordinals/Stacks -> Nostr relay chains for identity and records - Bitcoin DIDs -> Nostr DIDs (pubkey-based) - NFT-based badges -> Attestation server-issued credentials (not NFTs) - On-chain attestation -> Nostr NIP-based peer verification - Property registry -> Nostr-anchored on Bitcoin - Governance voting -> Bitcoin via Nostr relay chains - Governance records -> Relay-anchored on Bitcoin mesh NFTZ token name preserved as network token (not NFT references)

# NodeZero Funchal - Governance
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
The governance layer manages the decentralized operations of NodeZero Funchal,
|
|
combining Bitcoin governance with community-driven mesh services — all identity
|
|
and attestation handled via Nostr relays.
|
|
|
|
## Governance Model
|
|
### Community Staking
|
|
- Residents stake tokens (NFTZ) to validate nodes and vote
|
|
- Voting weight proportional to stake and residency duration
|
|
- Minimum stake: 100 NFTZ per voting right
|
|
- Lock-up period: 30 days
|
|
|
|
### DAO Council
|
|
- 13 elected council members
|
|
- 2-year terms, max 2 consecutive terms
|
|
- Responsibilities: node deployment, treasury, service fees, disputes
|
|
|
|
### Mesh Services Board
|
|
- 5 technical experts elected for infrastructure governance
|
|
- Protocol updates, network tuning, hardware standards, security
|
|
|
|
## Identity & Relays
|
|
### Nostr Integration
|
|
- **DID Resolution:** Decentralized Identifiers via Nostr DIDs (pubkeys)
|
|
- **Profile Data:** All service profiles stored on Nostr relays
|
|
- **Attestations:** Peer endorsements and credentials verified through Nostr events
|
|
- **Relay Redundancy:** Multiple Nostr relins with mesh sync for offline capability
|
|
|
|
