Recently, governance voting feels a bit like my mindset version update: v1 still stays up late to read proposals, v2 starts only caring about who’s pushing and who’s dragging, v3 is outright discouraged by the “Delegate” button... To be blunt, delegated voting was originally meant to be convenient, but it slowly turns into “handing the keyboard to familiar people,” and in the end, those familiar people become the few large accounts. So, who exactly does governance tokens govern? Maybe it’s everyone’s time and patience.

And whenever new L1/L2 incentives roll out to boost TVL, the longtime users in the group start complaining about “mine, propose, sell.” I get it right away: you’re busy voting, while they’re busy unloading. Either way, I care more about the post-meeting wrap-up now—who actually shows up to the meetings, and who’s always absent—so “governance” doesn’t turn back into a social activity dominated by oligarchs.
