Lately, I've been a bit obsessed with DAO voting, to be honest. The proposal texts are meant for "everyone" to see, but the incentives and power structures are designed for "those few people." For example, the subsidy wording is very gentle, but the real key points are: who can submit proposals, who can modify parameters, whose delegated votes will automatically follow... I also casually check related contract interaction records to see if there's a wave of fixed addresses "checking in" before and after voting. That kind of pattern is so obvious that it makes my OCD want to mark it.
Recently, hardware wallets are out of stock again, and phishing links are on the rise. The more I look at it, the more I think voting isn't just about "approve/reject." Once permissions are granted, who cleans up the mess later is also recorded on the chain. That's all for now, talk again next time.
