Exchange Governance
WCM is managed through an administrator role with specific, clearly defined responsibilities.
Administrator Responsibilities
The administrator may:
✅ List tokens on the exchange for trading
✅ Create and configure orderbooks
Most tokens will support all three markets (spot, lending, perpetuals)
Some tokens may only have a spot orderbook
✅ Set exchange risk parameters for each token
✅ Halt trading on a particular book (note: existing orders may still be canceled)
✅ Set fee rates
✅ Designate the mark price source
✅ Return liquidation fees to the original owner if a liquidation was found to be illegitimate (e.g., caused by price manipulation)
Administrator Limitations
The administrator cannot:
❌ Move funds arbitrarily between accounts
❌ Override the ledger
The ledger only responds to owner requests and trading activity
