Aragon powers protocols with products and services designed to manage access control, capital allocation, and ownership at scale. Build something worth owning.
Tokens can only be evaluated on fundamentals when they have enforceable claims on value and capital flows.
Today we're releasing the Ownership Token Framework, measuring how project fundamentals map to the token by evaluating ownership, value accrual, and verifiability.
Hemi is integrating @AragonProject, the industry standard for onchain governance.
Aragon's full smart contract framework is now deployed on Hemi, giving projects access to a battle-tested toolkit built for serious protocol governance.
Aragon is live on @hemi_xyz.
As institutional capital moves onchain, access control matters more than ever.
Build secure execution flows with granular permissions, staged approvals, timelocks, and vetoes on a network that pairs Bitcoin security with Ethereum programmability.
Regulatory uncertainty has been holding back builders for too long.
Projects cannot design and build products when legal requirements on control are undefined.
Weโre pushing with the industry for CLARITY and are already working with projects to be prepared.
It's time.
Wallet addresses are great for computers.
Not so great for humans.
Aragon's new ENS-powered profiles make it easier to understand who's participating in governance, approvals, and delegation.
Profiles only include what users publish via ENS.
Stay anonymous, pseudonymous, and share as much (or as little) as you want.

Introducing onchain profiles for council members, multisig signers, and delegates.
Publish profiles and statements in Aragon via @ensdomains, improving opsec hygiene and making approval flows easier to track.
Built on open infrastructure, so profiles stay portable across apps.
From the Aragon app, users can:
โ Add or update names, avatars, bios, websites, and social links
โ Publish token-specific delegate statements through ENS-native delegate profile records
โ Claim a free aragon.eth name if they donโt already have ENS
The OTF evaluates the onchain control of tokens, mapping authority over upgrades, parameters, and emergency powers.
Control paths impact security, counterparty risk, and the likelihood of preventable losses.
Fundamentals arenโt just financial. Theyโre structural.
Managing protocol risk goes beyond code audits. It requires strong access control.
Security councils or guardian functions with timelocks are baseline safeguards for minimizing counterparty risk.
Add checks and balances with Aragon. โ
More people should know about the Interfold.
It's basically what I've been yelling at people to build with the MACI ideas ( https://t.co/mlDy84zXQo ) for almost a decade, and now it exists, in a generalized form.
The idea is: a privacy protocol optimized for things like voting (and other use cases eg. secret-ballot auctions). The mechanism generates a threshold encryption key, and people send in their votes onchain, using a ZKP to prove eligibility. An arbitrary computation on the votes gets run inside FHE, and then threshold-decrypted.
From what I can tell (the docs are good https://t.co/adzwK6ezMN ), it gets pretty optimal security guarantees:
* Voter anonymity can be made unconditional if eligibility is proven with ZK-SNARKs
* Censorship resistance is guaranteed by ethereum (votes can be posted directly onchain, and there's a proof that all posted votes are taking into account)
* The correctness of the outputted result can be ensured via ZK over FHE
* Liveness and coercion resistance depend on M-of-N honesty; unavoidable given present-day technology
The main limitation is that today "ZK over FHE" is only properly available for additive vote tallying, as it's too expensive for computations that involve multiplication or other more complicated manipulation at the moment. There's work in progress on slashing-based / optimistic computation for such situations.
(And of course ideally in the long term we'd figure out obfuscation so you can get rid of the M-of-N committees๐)
The system is designed to reward long-term participation and aligned ecosystem growth.
Stake your CTR to participate in governance โ https://t.co/NMSMwokgRS
CTR holders can now stake their tokens to receive xCTR, a non-transferable governance token designed to reward long-term alignment.
Hereโs how the system works โ
1/4 CTR is now live ๐๐
CTR is the coordination asset for the Bitcoin economy.
The launch of CTR marks the next phase of Citrea โ enabling Bitcoin capital markets at scale.

The community can also activate a flexible gauge system for ecosystem incentives, subject to discussion around structure, parameters, and budget.
Unlike most gauge systems, incentives can extend beyond pools and applications to broader network behaviours and integrations.
