### Full Governance Takeover and Genesis Key Burning The full governance takeover of Xerberus will begin with the burning of the Genesis Keys. After this point, only governance decisions will be able to modify the Xerberus source code, meaning all development efforts, bug fixes, and upgrades will require approval through the designated on-chain governance process. The gap between [[Governance Activation]] and Full Governance Takeover allows for adjustments to the governance system itself, recognizing that unforeseen issues or potential bugs in the governance process may arise. During this transition, the core team retains the ability to intervene if necessary, ensuring stability and smooth operation as Xerberus moves through its final development stages.
