I would like to see the ZAC, or something similar be added as a constituency for the zbloc.
Active and engaged community members of this forum which invest a lot of their own time and thought into zcash but may not have a huge amount coins to swing a vote deserve a voice in my opinion.
This can be administered through a one representitive and a helios poll
Thank you for your suggestion. Speaking of getting rid of new users with poorly written posts, this tone of discourse that you are showing up here is rather aggressive and unwelcoming. It’s more effective at dissuading people of participating than acronyms.
Let’s do this: I’ll use less acronyms and you be less unnecessarily ironic and provocative
I disagree. Even though the process is not fully decentralized, nobody has hijacked the governance. In fact, coin-holders -I’m not a fan of coin-weighed-voting- voted profusely for the path decided. You have the right to not like it. But I honestly don’t think it has been hijacked at all. On the contrary, this time the community had way more participation than in previous occasions and it is my hope (and I think it’s shared across the community) that we can incorporate more voices in quantity and diversity.

I’m sorry that you are upset. Everyone can be upset. Maybe this time the different ecosystem actors did not choose the path you think it is the best for Zcash. Still, it doesn’t mean that they won’t ever do it. You have very interesting ideas and I hope that with time you can be less upset and that you keep being a passionate Zodler as you always have been and continue to share your vision with others.
I take the acronym criticism as valid, I don’t like them either to be honest (I almost write ‘tbh’ ). The same way as acronyms and jargon talk can be unwelcoming, that also is true for “not gentleness”.
If you may take an advice from another passionate Zodler, feeling upset doesn’t entitle anyone to be “not gentle” to others in any way. It’s ok to be upset. Maybe when we feel that way, we might better draft that post and leave it for later.
I don’t think you are wrong. You have very valid concerns.
These are very important questions you are asking.
If you have identified (or belong to) a group of zodlers that is not participating, it would be great that you could articulate what’s needed for them to be an active part of the discussion and the decisions made.
I am digging into other governance models that include both governance and funding-based elements. Optimism’s is interesting (ht @ml_sudo). Does anyone have any experience working within it?
