There's certainly lots of real world governance models
to try to draft and execute.

Then there's another problem
1) Governance in the first place.
and / or
2) That it's run by humans who are by nature corrupt.

There could simply be some type of free for all network,
new block refer to prior block, fork at will, solicit
trust and longest chain adoption rather than sell it.

Networks could be made to simply refuse to transact if parameters
ever change... design it, launch it, and forget it, sink or swim.
Users move their value from ship to ship.

AI bots could execute within a novel network to
- provide governance over humans, acceptance of patches.
and or
- adjust network paramaters by trial and error thus learning
to solve its own problems.

Some new networks may be created anonymously, where changes
are locked to the anonymous creator by the AI. If creator
disappears without key handoff, the net goes sink or swim
at that point. Benevolent creator can quietly in
safety cherry pick from some git repo community.
Some users may just trust creator, or choose various
creator nets that have some high vote% rollback and
creator freeze options.

Some many unexplored models and new ideas to yet come up with.
