These days, I’ve given myself a sort of "version update" for my mindset. I used to think that delegated voting was pretty convenient; anyway, I didn’t want to monitor governance proposals every day, so I just left it to people who seemed reliable.

Now the more I look at it, the more uncomfortable I feel. To put it plainly, it’s like packaging "my vote" into someone else’s power, which ultimately turns into a small group of people nodding at each other, and who exactly is the governance token really governing… I have a bit of an answer now.

What’s more awkward is that many people aren’t out of ideas; they’re just too lazy to care, or afraid of offending others. As a result, with low participation in voting, oligarchic tendencies become the default setting.
The inflation, studios, and spiraling token prices in blockchain games also seem quite similar: power and rewards become concentrated, and the rest can only passively take the leftovers.
Anyway, I now prefer to delegate less, move less, and stay more active, even if it’s slower.
