A new proposal reducing budget changes to 200 million ADA has ignited a heated debate among community members. The discussions raise significant questions about governance and acceptance of prior votes, with rival factions emerging in response to this ongoing financial saga.
Context of the Proposal
The latest initiative marks the third proposal regarding budget adjustments, down from 250 million and 350 million ADA that had previously been discussed. Critics suggest that an off-chain consensus might better serve the community before voting on such matters.
Governance Discontent
Commenters express frustration, particularly over the perception that the new proposal is an attempt to overturn the previous approval of 350 million ADA. "It appears as though there is an element of sour grapes with this new proposal Governance is never gonna work if people don’t accept the outcome of a vote," stated one community member.
Many assert the importance of respecting the original decision made by decentralized representatives (DReps) and a constitutional committee. "Just because 350 is approved doesn’t mean the dreps have to approve for all those funds to be distributed," another remarked, highlighting a perceived disconnect between the governance process and user satisfaction.
Key Comments Summary
350 Approval Questioned: Some individuals are confused about the rejection status of the 350 million proposal, with statements claiming it was actually approved.
Skepticism on Governance: There is a growing sentiment that if the community doesn’t accept outcomes, governance efforts may collapse, which raises questions about future proposals' legitimacy.
