Lefteris says it harshly, but the fact that it has half the voting power really makes you wonder: is it a DAO—or just another DAO?

Wu Says learns that ENS DAO on-chain governance shows that an execution proposal to renew the Security Council for two years is currently blocked by a large number of opposing votes. Among them, ENS founder Nick Johnson cast approximately 3.26 million votes against, accounting for the vast majority of the opposition, while the votes in favor are around 538k. This proposal had previously passed the Snapshot community vote, but the on-chain execution proposal failed to gain support. ENS community member Lefteris Karapetsas subsequently publicly criticized Nick Johnson for using roughly half of the voting power to veto the proposal, and called this move meaning that "ENS DAO is dead."
