# Governance and Treasury

> Policy levers, token sinks and related matters.

### Policy levers

* **Royalty rate bands** by domain and access tier
* **Default split templates** for contributors, validators, backers, treasury
* **Access rules** for restricted assets, including KYC, audit level, and dispute windows
* **Staking parameters**: min stake, lockups, slashing rules
* **Task launch requirements**: \$XNY deposit sizing, refund logic, and priority rules

### Treasury and token sinks

| Flow                    | Currency               | Notes                                                            |
| ----------------------- | ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Submission gas**      | \$XNY                  | Deters spam and funds indexing and security operations           |
| **Task launch deposit** | \$XNY                  | Reserves network capacity and enforces SLAs                      |
| **Staking**             | \$XNY                  | Confidence signal with slashing for low quality or fraud         |
| **Ownership trades**    | \$XNY                  | Settlement and listing fees for transfers and bundles            |
| **Marketplace fees**    | \$XNY or stablecoins   | If paid in stablecoins, a small \$XNY protocol fee still applies |
| **Royalty payouts**     | Stablecoins by default | TNPL and usage revenue are shared primarily in stablecoins       |

Treasury uses: **audits**, **grants**, **quality bounties**, **tooling for agents and contributors**, and **research**.

### Integration posture

Codatta remains **protocol-first and open**. Integrations include:

* **API connectors** to launch tasks, pull datasets, and run evaluations
* **On-chain hooks** for metering and settlement with allowlisted bridges
* **Identity and reputation adapters** to reuse credentials from partner ecosystems
