Let’s Discuss About Lido DAO Drama

The previous day, Lido DAO voted “No” on a proposal that would’ve viewed 10 million LDO tokens accounting for 1% of the token’s full present (price roughly $14.5 million) bought to Dragonfly Capital.

Overall, the voting ended with 43 million LDO, or 66%, of tokens voting no and 21 million LDO tokens, or 33%, voting sure. Interestingly, whereas 609 customers voted, 20.6 million of the ~21 million LDO votes that voted “Certain” came from simply two entities.

The vote concludes share of a contentious governance proposal in the case of treasury diversification in the Lido governance discussion board. Per the long-established put up, Lido DAO became attempting to stable two years of runway for the crew in stablecoins to put together for a chronic endure market by promoting 20 million LDO tokens, with 10 million being bought outright to Dragonfly.

Per a contemporary provisional budget, Lido has one of many upper groups in DeFi, with roughly 83 plump-time contributors racking up a burn rate of nearly $29 million a year. In the intervening time, Lido DAO holds the overwhelming majority of its $285 million treasury in volatile belongings ($247 million in LDO and $30 million in ETH). Many community people procure voiced exclaim over what could well happen to the group if LDO and/or ETH plunge precipitously in mark.

With that in suggestions, promoting tokens to Dragonfly to pay for operations is unruffled in play despite the long-established vote being vetoed, as a contemporary governance discussion board proposal looks to already be in the works, which could well perhaps ask Dragonfly paying the next mark per token. Furthermore, it looks a token lockup for Dragonfly is being regarded as after the shortcoming of such a mechanism led to community people, including DegenSpartan and Adam Cochran, voicing their concept that Dragonfly’s LDO tokens must be locked up and then vested over a one or two-year interval.
