BastTank is a community-driven and democratically elected think-tank that serves as a platform for such decisions that need to be flexible yet require a moderate level of voting security. Such DFO functions that do not need on-chain approval have been outsourced to xbast DAO to ensure dynamic decision-making processes supported by BastTank.

BastTank further strives to increase democratic participation by giving shareholders a platform to share their thoughts, concerns, or suggestions. Any community member can contact a democratically elected community representative, to have his thoughts shared during the weekly community meeting, which is currently hosted in @basttank, a permanently read-only telegram channel. Only elected community representatives are able to comment in @basttank, which reduces noise and increases each contributions visibility.
