# On-chain Governance The final mile of decentralization is on-chain governance. Even if a protocol is 100% implemented by smart contracts, decentralization remains an unachievable goal if the control of these contracts lies in the hands of an individual or a team. IC offers the [Service Nervous System (SNS)](https://internetcomputer.org/sns), an advanced form of a DAO, facilitating the open community's unchallengeable ownership of the protocol. Octopus's core team plans to hand over control rights to the SNS within one year after Omnity’s mainnet launch. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
