PIVX Alliance Registry sealPIVX ALLIANCE REGISTRY

UNDER REVIEW — UNVERIFIED PARTNERSHIP CLAIM

The following entry has no ratifying proposal in PIVX governance. A public “official partnership” claim exists; the register says otherwise. Under registry rules the banner goes up immediately — no waiting on a governance cycle.

Review opened 2026-09-14 — Automatic: public 'official partnership' claim detected with no matching proposal in PIVX governance. Any PIVX community member can open a review; the banner stays up until governance resolves it.

EST. 2018 · REVIVED 2026 · PRE-PROPOSAL

Every PIVX alliance, on the public record.

In 2018 a fake “official partnership” nearly defined what a PIVX alliance was. This register exists so that never happens again: every alliance is visible, dated, and revocable — ratified by masternode governance, recorded here, expiring on schedule, and disavowed in public when a claim has no record behind it.

The register

REGISTRY STATE AS OF 2026-10-30

Expired alliances remain listed deliberately: history is part of the record. The DegenSwap entry demonstrates the disavowal mechanism and is marked as a demo. Open governance questions are tracked on the protocol page.

Why a register at all

January 2018: the wound

AriseBank — a fake “decentralized bank” — announced an “official partnership” with PIVX. Its founder, Jared Rice Sr., was later sentenced to five years in federal prison and ordered to pay $4.26M in restitution. PIVX had no framework that defined what an official partnership even was, and no register to point to that said “yes, real” or “never was”.

February 2018: the draft cure

Ten days later, community members drafted the PIVX Alliance Protocol: alliances are official only by governance vote, term-limited to twelve months, and vetted against a standard sheet. It was sound — and it was never hosted. Two alliances later passed in its spirit (ARK.io 2021, BlockDX 2022). The cure existed on paper only. This registry hosts it.
