Lately, submitting DAO proposals has been a bit exhausting, on the surface it says "optimizing incentives," but basically it's about redistributing the cake: who can propose, who can veto, how voting rights are derived, all ultimately fall into the power structure. Staking unlocks, token unlock schedules have been repeatedly brought up recently; everyone is worried about selling pressure, I am too, but what I fear more is that a "temporary incentive" is casually inserted into proposals to boost voting, and once passed, no one cares anymore.
There’s too much information, it makes my head hurt… I’m now using a simple method: only focus on three things — where the money comes from, who it ultimately flows to, and whether the voting threshold has been quietly lowered/raised. The rest of the lengthy discussions I treat as hypnosis; anyway, arbitrage is not as good as sleeping, if I miss it, I miss it.
