Validator Governance

Three Key Elements of Hetu Ecosystem Governance

Decision-Making by HETU Holders

HETU holders stake their tokens to gain voting weight, enabling them to participate in on-chain voting for proposals such as protocol upgrades and fee adjustments. Decisions require meeting a minimum participation threshold (e.g., 20% of the circulating supply).

Tiered Proposal Mechanism

Technical Optimization: Community voting. Fund Allocation: Committee review. Security Incidents: Rapid response by validators.

Governance Reward Binding

Participants share governance rewards, based on their voting weight. Key proposals that pass trigger HETU deflationary burns.

Token Roles and Positioning

ETH (Ethereum Native Token)

Core Use Cases:

• Gas Fee Payments: Users can directly pay transaction and contract execution fees on Hetu Chain using ETH. Cross-Chain Base Asset: ETH can be converted into pegged assets (e.g., hETH) via the standard cross-chain bridge for circulation within the ecosystem.

User Value:

• Zero Learning Curve: Ethereum users can experience the Hetu ecosystem without needing to acquire new tokens. Liquidity Reuse: ETH can directly participate in Hetu Chain’s DeFi, NFT, and other scenarios without additional conversions.

HETU (Ecosystem Governance Token)

Core Use Cases:

• Decentralized Governance: Holders can vote on critical decisions such as protocol upgrades and fee parameter adjustments.

• Network Staking: Validator nodes are required to stake HETU to participate in consensus, and users can earn rewards by delegating their stakes.

User Value:

• Governance Influence: Voting weight is proportional to token holdings, allowing deep participation in the ecosystem’s development direction.

• Long-Term Revenue Capture: Users can share in network transaction fee revenue and block rewards through staking.
