# The Godfathers Council

The Godfathers Council, consisting of $TUG holders and holders of the Godfather Collection, will govern and maintain the protocol through a transparent and democratic process. Inspired by Ethereum's EIPs and open-source software change control, this process allows the community to propose and vote on changes to the protocol.&#x20;

The Godfathers Council is committed to ensuring that all members of the community have a say in the direction of the protocol and its development.
