Lately, watching DAO voting feels a bit like watching a company meeting: proposals are written as "for the community," but in the end, it's about who gets incentives, who has authority, and who can decide how the next rules are written. To put it plainly, voting isn't a survey of public opinion; it's more like drawing a chart of the power structure for everyone to sign... Some proposals adjust thresholds or move delegated pools around, superficially for efficiency optimization, but in reality, it's about gathering influence within familiar circles—a gentle way of seizing power. By the way, there's also talk outside about increasing taxes / tightening or loosening regulations, and as everyone's expectations for deposits and withdrawals change, the on-chain community immediately becomes "rational": not voting on proposals they don't care about, not paying attention to what they don't need to, busy first securing their own path. Anyway, my first glance at proposals is to see how incentives are distributed; the second is to see who can block your process. As for the vision... well, the vision is of course important.
