   A blockchain-based insurance platform is establishing its governance framework. The platform has three stakeholder groups: policyholders (token holders), a development team, and a network of oracles that provide weather data for claims. The platform needs a governance mechanism that ensures all groups have a defined role and that decisions are made transparently. Which framework best achieves this?

   • ADefine a governance charter that specifies the voting rights of token holders, the proposal submission process for developers, and the data-quality standards for oracles, with all decisions recorded on-chain.
   • BAllow the development team to make all decisions and use oracles only for data feeds.
   • CUse a private forum for all governance discussions and make final decisions by a simple majority of developers.
   • DLet policyholders vote on every technical detail, including oracle data formats.
