This makes exactly my point.
ZSAs only have value as a protocol feature. Coinholders were asked about exactly that, and 98.6% said no. Funding more ZSA work afterward is obviously funding toward the thing they rejected.
“Preserving the work” doesn’t need $455K. The code is open source, it’s not going anywhere. A dedicated ZSA testnet is continuation of work, not preservation.
And you note the poll was “advisory and non-binding.” That’s precisely the issue: coinholders pay for ZCG, and their views on how that money is spent are non-binding.
After five years and $5.76M, coinholders shouldn’t have to keep paying to tie up loose ends on a feature they voted against.
Enough is enough.
