# Governance (Lite)

#### Community Rules the Melt

ButtaCat is a community-first token. With ownership renounced and LP locked, there are no backdoors — the direction of Butterland is shaped by its holders.

#### How It Works

* **Telegram Polls** → Major community decisions are voted on in the open.
* **Meme Contests** → The best memes earn rewards and influence.
* **Holder Feedback** → Ideas and proposals are collected directly from active wallets and community members.

#### What We Decide Together

* Meme contests and reward pools
* Staking reward models and NFTs
* Marketing campaigns and partnerships
* Expansion of the ecosystem

#### Why Lite Governance

* **Simple:** No complex DAO mechanics or token-lock voting.
* **Fast:** Telegram polls keep momentum high.
* **Degen-friendly:** Easy to understand, easy to join.

#### The Meme Edge

Governance doesn’t need to be boring.\
In Butterland, voting = memes + stickers + chaos.\
The stronger the community voice, the stronger the melt.

🧈 **Sticky Line:**\
 *"*No dev lords. No hidden hands. Just community sliding together.*"*
