Recently, I’ve been a little annoyed watching governance voting: a bunch of people delegate their votes, act as hands-off managers, and in the end, the governance token “governance” is probably controlled by just a few big players plus their agents… To put it plainly, it’s not decentralization—it’s outsourced to oligarchs. What’s more awkward is that the voting button is right there, but the transaction fees are so high that ordinary people even find the cost of “expressing their opinions” too much, so they just lie flat and give up.

I thought everyone was churning through testnet incentives and farming points to feel more of a sense of participation, but in the chat, the most common question is still, “Will the mainnet issue tokens?” Voting? Let’s talk again after the airdrop… Anyway, my current approach is pretty realistic: if I can vote on L2, I won’t touch the mainnet, and I won’t blindly delegate either. I’d rather vote fewer times, but make sure the proxy is really helping the right side. Governance shouldn’t turn into a points replica.
