Cardano Ballot to Gauge Community Sentiment on Decentralization
Cardano’s Improvement Proposal-1694, known as the Cardano Ballot, is set to launch on Friday. The voting process, which is non-binding, aims to measure the community’s sentiment towards Cardano’s push for decentralization. The voting window will open at 9:44 p.m. UTC and close on December 11 at 21:44 UTC. Holders of participating wallets and ADA stakers will be eligible to vote.
Bringing Stakeholders Together
The Cardano Ballot asks voters whether the project should continue developing minimum-viable on-chain governance. Voters can choose yes or no, or opt to abstain from voting. New users have the opportunity to buy Cardano before the voting period in order to participate. Staking users must have delegated their ADA tokens to a stake pool by November 20. There are no transaction fees involved, and the results of the ballot will be announced on December 16.
Hoskinson Advocates for Altcoins and Decentralization
Cardano’s move towards decentralized governance is part of its broader plan to operate independently of Input Output Global’s control. This aligns with the Voltaire stage in Cardano’s roadmap and aims to establish governance mechanisms and manage the Cardano Treasury effectively. Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, recently criticized those who criticize altcoins, stating that they are playing into the hands of entities seeking control over people’s money and data. He emphasized the importance of unity within the cryptocurrency industry as a defense against government tyranny.
Hot Take: Collaborative Efforts Needed for Crypto Industry
Hoskinson’s call for unity within the crypto industry highlights an important aspect of its success. Instead of attacking each other, collaboration among crypto projects and stakeholders can provide a stronger defense against external control and government interference. By working together, the industry can promote decentralization, protect individual freedoms, and foster innovation in the financial landscape.
