Lately, governance voting feels a bit awkward: many people delegate their votes to a few "big players/representatives," honestly for convenience, but it’s starting to look more and more like a meeting of oligarchs... Who exactly is the governance token governing? Is it governing the project, or just the patience of retail investors? Anyway, I’m just someone who interacts and casually votes, and if I had to research every proposal, I’d be pretty anxious.



Especially these days, when cross-chain bridges get hacked again, or when oracles spit out abnormal quotes, the group chat is full of “wait for confirmation.” This “waiting for confirmation” gradually becomes consensus, and people are more willing to hand their votes to those who seem more professional. But once the votes are concentrated, when something goes wrong, it’s hard to trace the blame back to anyone… I’d rather vote fewer times than blindly delegate, at least I don’t want to pack my limited say into someone else’s hands directly. Let’s leave it at that for now.
