Blockchain & Government layer

2.3 Blockchain & Government layer

The Blockchain & Governance Layer underpins Green Token’s integrity, transparency, and community-driven decision-making. It ensures that every verified action, token distribution, and governance process is tamper-proof, auditable, and compliant, creating trust across users, enterprises, and regulators.

a. Token Issuance & Buyback Mechanism

  • Token Issuance: Green Tokens are minted only when user actions are verified through the AI-powered MRV system. This ensures that every token is backed by measurable sustainability outcomes.

  • Reward Pools: Tokens are allocated from pre-funded pools that align with daily caps and partner budgets, maintaining balanced incentive structures.

  • Buyback Mechanism: A portion of ecosystem revenue (e.g., from sponsorships, data packages, recyclables resale) is used to buy back tokens.

  • Burn & Recycling: Repurchased tokens may be burned or recycled into reward pools, ensuring long-term liquidity and stability without speculative inflation.


b. Smart Contracts for Rewards & Settlement

  • Automated Rewards: Smart contracts distribute tokens instantly upon action verification, eliminating delays and manual intervention.

  • Settlement with Partners: Coupons, discounts, or loyalty integrations are executed via partner-facing smart contracts.

  • Fraud Control: Smart contracts are designed with policy caps, geo/time checks, and liveness requirements, ensuring anti-gaming by design.

  • Scalability: Modular architecture allows new partners to plug in seamlessly without rewriting the core codebase.


c. DAO Proposal Mechanism

  • Community Participation: Token holders can submit proposals to modify reward structures, adjust tokenomics, or add new ecosystem features.

  • Proposal Lifecycle: Proposals follow a defined lifecycle — submission → community review → on-chain registration.

  • Eligibility & Guardrails: Minimum token holding thresholds or staking requirements ensure only committed participants can submit proposals.


d. Voting Process & Decision Implementation

  • On-Chain Voting: Token-weighted voting ensures proportional influence while maintaining decentralization.

  • Voting Transparency: Voting windows, quorum requirements, and participation rates are all visible on-chain.

  • Execution: Once a proposal passes, smart contracts automatically implement the decision, removing bias and human intervention.

  • Checks & Balances: Emergency rollback or audit mechanisms exist to protect against malicious or exploitative proposals.


e. Transparency via Immutable Ledger

  • Audit-Ready Data: Every action, proposal, and token movement is logged immutably on the blockchain.

  • Public Changelogs: Governance updates and treasury movements are published in real time, ensuring accountability.

  • Regulatory Trust: Immutable ledgers provide third parties, auditors, and regulators with a reliable source of truth.

  • Long-Term Integrity: This transparency builds institutional credibility, making Green Token viable for integration into municipal programs and corporate ESG frameworks.
