|                   |                                                     |

Cult DAO is designed for full decentralization with built-in safety, transparency, and resistance to manipulation. NFT holders alone can influence the protocol, propose actions, and vote on the usage of treasury funds. All logic is executed fully on-chain via Solana’s scalable architecture.

This design ensures:

* Real ownership by the community.
* Tamper-proof governance.
* Full on-chain auditability.
* No manual or backend overrides.
