Proposal #45: Governance Architecture Proposal for the Gonka.ai Network

Replace scattered governance discussions and complex CLI voting with a unified Governance Portal - a single interface for all Gonka governance activity. The portal includes: a proposal feed across Discussion/Voting/Archive stages, miner-weighted ranking, crowdfunded deposit collection, targeted notifications (Telegram/email/on-site), and browser-based voting via restricted hot keys (no CLI required). Critical point: this is not just a convenient UI - the crowdfunded deposit mechanism acts as an economic quality filter that screens proposals before they reach on-chain voting, preventing low-effort or spam proposals from consuming validator attention. Funding request: 50,000 USDT (~119,000 GNK), split into Phase 1 MVP (30,000 USDT - portal frontend/backend, wallet auth, deposit crowdfunding) and Phase 2 (20,000 USDT - escrow contracts, dynamic quorum, reputation systems). Code will be open-sourced upon launch. We guarantee 90 days of post-launch support; afterwards, the portal becomes community-owned and further support/maintenance will be funded through community governance votes.
