SOULBOUND Core

The SOULBOUND Core consists of the founding team, early developers, and major early BADGE holders who have made significant contributions to bootstrap the initial protocol, infrastructure, and community.

The SOULBOUND Core is responsible for stewarding the technical development and release of protocol upgrades before the fully decentralized transition. They oversee network operations, security, risk management, and integration with third-party services during this phase. The Core's mandate is to shepherd the protocol to the point where it can be sustainably managed under decentralized governance.
