We the People of the Qortal Blockchain Project (‘Qortians’), in order to form a more perfect democratic system to benefit every interested person, establish a platform to decentralize, build a network for true freedom, and come together as one for the common good of the people worldwide. This is our Constitution (a guideline to what the people of the world can expect from the Qortal Project),

Section 1. We will structure a platform that puts the power back into the people’s hands with a fair system for all and a limited governing system designed only to allow the Dev Team to push updates to the chain. Qortal will not infringe upon your right to free speech, free trade, right to information, nor right to build together. All major decisions on the platform will be made via a vote by every leveled account. Admins of sub-community Groups will be empowered to censor and manage their content. Individuals will be empowered to navigate the Internet and decide for themselves what content they wish to see or not. Qortal Dev Team will not be empowered to censor content or users by any means!

Section 2. Qortal will have its own decentralized trade portal that features true peer-to-peer transactions without the need for a middle man that historically has proven to be flawed. Qortal will have its own decentralized hosting service for websites, blogs, data storage, social media, and encrypted communication. Qortal will have its own decentralized mesh-network and satellite technology that encrypts data and ensures privacy. Qortal will provide infrastructure for virtually any third-party ethical public or private project to be built on-chain and take part in a new economic model within the Qortal Network.

Section 3. Qortal will never be empowered to censor nor force a political agenda upon its people. The argument for the Dev Team having a limited power of governance over censorship has been discussed and agreed to not be implemented. This is a result of experiencing Big Tech’s slippery slope into the bleeding of lines with censorship and political bias agendas. Qortal will never have any sort of censorship oversight from the Dev Team level! It is up to the Group admins and individuals themselves to decide what content they wish to see.

Section 4. Qortal will enact a delegative system where the Voting System allows the project to be community-driven and ideally designed to outlive us all in a revolutionary decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) form.

Section 5. Everyone within the Qortal Network is expected to engage and contribute in an ethical fashion. Qortal provides an opportunity for the world to come together, despite our differences. If we are all here with the genuine intent of furthering mankind and building a brighter future for all, then the project is destined to succeed and positively impact the world. Qortal will put the power back into the People’s hands worldwide. United we stand or divided we fall. If we are going to reinvent the wheel, we must have patience, respect, and understanding between us all.
