### **Governance**

### zkYuga Foundation

*  Establishing a clear and well-defined role for the zkYuga Foundation will ensure **transparency and responsible management** of the ecosystem.

### Token Gated Channels

* zkYuga plans to introduce **token-gated channels** within the community platform (e.g., Discord). These channels will allow members to connect their wallets and receive roles based on $YUGA holdings and yugaID ownership, fostering deeper engagement and fostering a sense of belonging within the community.
