Just finished reviewing a DAO proposal. On the surface, it says "optimizing incentives," but really it's just slowly shifting voting power toward certain addresses... To put it plainly, those who receive subsidies are more likely to become rule makers. Someone in the group is shouting about voting while asking, "Is there an airdrop if I vote?" That's pretty real. I don't pretend to be above it; incentives are the biggest motivator. Recently, there's been talk about increased taxes and tighter compliance in a certain region. As deposit and withdrawal expectations change, everyone's sentiment becomes more short-term, and voting feels more like betting rather than governance. Anyway, now I look at proposals first to ask: who gets the rewards, how long is the term, and whether parameters can be changed with one click; then I decide whether to follow along.
