Description

@Crypto2099

Article I, Section 1 of the Draft Constitution states:

### Section 1
These below Tenets shall guide all actors in the Cardano Blockchain ecosystem including the
Constitutional Committee and proposed governance actions shall be evaluated in accordance
with these Tenets.
Transactions on the Cardano Blockchain should not be slowed down or censored and should be
expediently served for their intended purpose. The Cardano Blockchain should scale taking into
consideration throughput, sharding, settlement and dynamic pricing.
The cost of transactions on the Cardano Blockchain should be predictable and not unreasonable.
The Cardano Blockchain should facilitate an accessible, predictable pricing model.
Anyone desiring to develop and deploy applications on the Cardano Blockchain should not
unreasonably be prevented from developing and deploying such applications as intended. The
Cardano community should promote features to assist in developing and deploying applications
such as digital subscriber lines, formal verification support, asynchronous and scalable location
services, oracles and access to partnerchains.
Contributions by Cardano community on the Cardano Blockchain should be recognized,
recorded and assessed fairly by the Cardano community through reward sharing with SPOs and
DReps, appropriate tokenomics and multi-resource consensus approaches.
The Cardano Blockchain shall not lock in an ada owner’s value without an owner’s consent. The
Cardano Blockchain should promote interoperability and access to partnerchains.
The Cardano Blockchain shall preserve in a safe manner any value and information an owner of
ada seeks to store on the Cardano Blockchain. To assure safe protection of value and
information, the Cardano Blockchain should focus on integrity, post-quantum security,
decentralization and decentralized storage, access to stablecoins and robust key management
approaches.
The Cardano Blockchain shall not unnecessarily spend resources. The Cardano Blockchain shall
promote efficient design, memory and storage.
All users of the Cardano Blockchain shall be treated equally taking into account the collective
desires of the Cardano Blockchain community consistent with the long-term sustainability and
viability of the Cardano Blockchain. Long-term sustainability and viability shall be evaluated by
a number of considerations including fairness, neutrality, sustainability, robust governance,
promotion of decentralized identity, use of multi-resource consensus and democratic
participation by all members of the Cardano community.

  • Do you believe these tenets appropriately reflect the ethos of the Cardano Blockchain?
  • Should there be an additional tenet addressing financial sustainability? If yes, what
    should it contain? Should it include an absolute cap on the circulating supply of ada?
