I Suggest Rejecting Any and All 'Create Service Nervous System (SNS)' Proposals that use the Neurons' Fund Until the System is Fit for Purpose

@wpb

It isn’t for us to decide if the owners of the Neuron’s Fund participate

Do U C Centralisation? IC Decentralisation (in Progress...) + ICP Giveaway!

If you came for the giveaway, you’re in luck, but you’ll need to read to the end. You won’t know where to start otherwise Context Last year DFINITY switched from a grant-wise governance decentralisation incentives model that was directed at an early mover (CodeGov ). The switch was to a funding model that instead invited the NNS to vote to ‘onboard’ a handful of elected NNS proposal reviewers.

Here’s a thread that provides more context about the governance problem, and the need for solutions → As a decentralised network, I think it’s appropriate for solutions to be put forward and worked on from left, right and cent…

Grants for voting neurons
