Proposal: Move the Treasury Under Validator Governance Summary This proposal suggests moving the Everscale treasury out of discretionary control and placing it under validator governance. All wallets funded from the treasury under concluded programs shall return their remaining funds to the main treasury address. Any locked funds shall be returned once the applicable lock-up period expires. Everscale mainnet treasury address: 0:7777c2881cff3c4faeb075c783bbee10b93341567b7c6fd866b1d3a215000000 The treasury would be transferred to: 0:aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa It will remain untouched unless there is strong validator consensus to use it. Problem and motivation Keeping the treasury in a multisig would retain the inherent risks of concentrated control, subjective decision-making, and inefficient spending. The proposed model makes doing nothing the default and puts any future use behind a much higher governance threshold. Proposed solution Transfer the treasury to the blackhole address above. Possible future scenarios: • Do nothing. • Use it for a strategic opportunity significant enough to secure more than two-thirds of validator voting power. Alternatives and trade-offs The main alternative is a multisig wallet controlled by a limited group of signers. It would be easier to operate, but it would introduce concentrated control and a lower practical threshold for spending. The proposed model deliberately trades convenience for stronger governance and security. Next steps and requested feedback The next steps are: 1) Community and validator discussion. 2) Formal vote. 3) If approved, transfer the treasury to the address above within 7 days of the vote. 4) Agree on and publish the governance principles. Voting The decision will be made through an on-chain vote. To vote FOR, send any amount of EVER to: 0:aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa To vote AGAINST, send any amount of EVER to: 0:bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb Immediately after voting closes, a snapshot will be taken. Votes will be calculated based on the total EVER balance held by addresses that voted FOR or AGAINST at the time of the snapshot. The amount sent to cast the vote does not determine voting power. Voting remains open until October 21, 2026, 00:00:00 UTC
