The TRON x BitTorrent Partnership Won’t Make A Difference For Another 20 Years

As many of you will know, the TRON Foundation recently made the purchase of BitTorrent, the online peer to peer file sharing service that was once built to make the internet more democratic. It made sense for TRON to make this acquisition, as we know, their end goal is complete online democracy too, so instead of working against each other, why not epitomise democracy, and work together? It was a huge acquisition, BitTorrent has around 100 million users, all of whom have been guaranteed a home within the TRON network. дальше »

Governance, Part 2: Plutocracy Is Still Bad

Coin holder voting, both for governance of technical features, and for more extensive use cases like deciding who runs validator nodes and who receives money from development bounty funds, is unfortunately continuing to be popular, and so it seems worthwhile for me to write another post explaining why I (and Vlad Zamfir and others) do not consider it wise for Ethereum (or really, any base-layer blockchain) to start adopting these kinds of mechanisms in a tightly coupled form in any significant way. дальше »

Notes on Blockchain Governance

In which I argue that “tightly coupled” on-chain voting is overrated, the status quo of “informal governance” as practiced by Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Zcash and similar systems is much less bad than commonly thought, that people who think that the purpose of blockchains is to completely expunge soft mushy human intuitions and feelings in favor of completely algorithmic governance (emphasis on “completely”) are absolutely crazy, and loosely coupled voting as done by Carbonvotes and similar systems is underrated, as well as describe what framework should be used when thinking about blockchain governance in the first place. дальше »
