EOS’s top 26 Referenda

--

We’ve reviewed all the EOS referenda which had more than a million votes, and commented on all of then.

First these principles:

1) We assume that referenda are for changes to the EOS Mainnet code, governing documents, procedures — things that effect the entire EOS community. There were some proposals which we agreed with, but which didn’t seem like community business. On these, we abstained.

2) Major governance changes: for reasons expressed in this article — EOS as a Frontier — we are abstaining officially, though articulating our preference in a memo.

3) No experimentation. If a change isn’t clearly a positive, but just different, we vote against it. Experimentation should happen on side chains.

Should EOS tokens sent to eosio.ramfee and eosio.names accounts in the future be allocated to REX?
