Parameters to develop
​a healthy blockchain governance

There are many structures, institutions, and communicational channels in anncient societies, that resamble ways of built data technologies, such as blockchain, where we can extrapolate their core (responsibilities and obligations of their people and institutions), to match the requirements of new frontiers of the blockchain, its new iterations like Tezos, and/or completely new technologies that plan to replace them like SWIRLDS.

That’s an angle I think is of transcendental use, and why here, the study of past advanced civilizations, its laws, and behavior, come in as an essential when to foresee and build online data structures that the users of these technologies join, to become part of the network, and in some cases even require a multi-party to agree to participate in.

For example in Ecclesia (old Athens) the central events of the athenian democracy were the meetings of the Assembly, the assembly's members were not elected, but attended by right and it was a duty to do so. Any adult that followed certain requirements took part randomly, the Assembly was divided in an X amount of groups set geographically not in a qualitative matter.

The officials of the democracy were in part elected by the Assembly and in large part chosen by lottery in a process called sortition. This allowed every citizen to comply with its duty at some point in their lives. And gave a grounded perspective to address and solve matters of interest within its society. That can be easily extrapolated to be elaborated as a governance system of a sort of open blockchain mixed in its attributions and roles of its prospect users.
