A mechanism update rule defines the specific conditions and procedures under which a blockchain protocol’s operational parameters or incentive structures can be altered. This rule governs how changes to the system’s economic or governance models are proposed, voted upon, and implemented. It is a critical component of a protocol’s adaptability and future evolution. Clear rules are essential for predictable system changes.

The robustness of these rules directly impacts a protocol’s long-term stability and its ability to respond to changing environmental factors.
