Lately, I've been looking at some governance votes, and the more I watch, the more it seems like a "delegated relay race": everyone is too lazy to research, so they casually hand their votes to a few familiar faces. In the end, how the proposals pass is really just a few groups nodding in agreement. On paper, tokens give the community control, but in practice, who is actually being governed… maybe it's just the sense of participation for the majority.

What's even more subtle is that recently, the incentive mechanisms and points systems on testnets have become popular again, and daily in the group, people are guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens. It's lively, but once expectations get high, voting can easily turn into "who can make the points more valuable, I support them," and long-term concerns like security, costs, and parameters are often overlooked.

My current approach is pretty simple: if I don't understand, I don't vote, or I only delegate to people I understand and who are willing to explain their reasoning; I also keep my holdings low to avoid being emotionally driven by governance news. High leverage? Forget it, a gust of wind can wipe you out.
