The PiggyVerse Constitution
This document establishes the foundational principles, governance structure, and immutable rules of PiggyVerse. It represents the social contract between all Piggies in the ecosystem.
On Immutability
If a clause is marked Immutable, no governance process, vote, or proposal—regardless of threshold—may alter or bypass it. This absolute protection ensures the foundational principles of PiggyVerse remain stable and inviolable, even against supermajorities or extraordinary circumstances.
Preamble
We, the Piggies of PiggyVerse, establish this Constitution as the supreme law of the PiggyVerse ecosystem, in order to enable a fair, open, and evolving universe where collective creation, freedom of expression, and shared governance may thrive.
Fundamental Principle of Decentralization
PiggyVerse shall remain a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), where power is distributed among Piggies according to this Constitution. No single entity, save for the constitutional safeguards held by Poiki, shall have unilateral control over the community.
The Role of Poiki
Poiki, as the founder and constitutional guardian, holds 1,000,000 votes as a safeguard mechanism. This power may only be exercised to:
- Veto proposals that fundamentally violate this Constitution
- Prevent hostile takeovers or governance attacks
- Protect the core values and mission of PiggyVerse
Poiki's voting power exists outside the standard governance system and may only be exercised as a veto on existential or constitutional violations. It shall not be counted in routine voting, delegation, quorum, or proposal scoring.
Poiki's power does not diminish, cannot be delegated, and cannot be overridden. This represents PiggyVerse's commitment to brand continuity and constitutional integrity across all stages of growth.
This clause cannot be amended or removed except through a supermajority vote (75% + Poiki approval), ensuring the stability and integrity of PiggyVerse's foundational governance.
Article I: Rights of Piggies
All Piggies in PiggyVerse are entitled to the following rights within the governance and participation systems of the ecosystem.
Scope Limitation: These rights apply solely within PiggyVerse governance and participation systems and do not constitute legal or jurisdictional rights outside the PiggyVerse ecosystem. These rights do not guarantee economic outcomes, rewards, or token distributions.
Every verified Piggy in PiggyVerse has the right to:
- Participate in governance votes
- Submit proposals for community consideration
- Join clans and contribute to their development
- Access all public documentation and governance records
Freedom of Expression
Piggies may freely express their views, create content, and engage in discourse, provided they adhere to community standards of respect and constructive dialogue.
Article II: Clan System
The clan system is a core organizational structure within PiggyVerse, allowing Piggies to organize around shared interests and goals.
Clan Rights and Responsibilities
Each clan may:
- Define its own internal governance structure
- Manage clan-specific resources and treasuries
- Create clan-specific rules (that don't conflict with this Constitution)
- Vote collectively on clan-related proposals
Clans must:
- Respect the constitutional framework
- Maintain transparent financial records
- Allow fair entry and exit for Piggies
- Contribute to the broader PiggyVerse community
Note: Clan internal governance and direction must not conflict with this Constitution. Clans are created through the governance process as defined in the Governance documentation.
Article III: Amendment Process
This Constitution may only be amended through the following process:
- A constitutional amendment proposal must be submitted
- The proposal enters a 30-day deliberation period
- A vote is held requiring 75% supermajority approval
- Poiki must approve the amendment (veto power)
- If approved, the amendment takes effect after a 14-day grace period
This high threshold ensures stability while allowing for necessary evolution.
Article IV: Dispute Resolution
Disputes within PiggyVerse shall be resolved through a transparent, escalating process as detailed in the Governance documentation. Constitutional matters and existential threats may be escalated to Poiki for final determination.
All proceedings must be transparent and documented in accordance with community standards.
Article V: Treasury and Resources
Treasury Management
The PiggyVerse treasury belongs to the community and must be governed transparently. Treasury expenditure processes and thresholds are defined in the Governance documentation.
