An accountability mechanism is a system or process ensuring individuals or entities are responsible for their actions. In decentralized systems, these mechanisms often involve transparent record-keeping and community governance structures. They aim to uphold ethical standards and operational integrity within digital asset environments. Such systems are crucial for maintaining trust and order in environments lacking traditional central authority.
