Make SNS topic “DAO community settings” critical

SNS DAO SNS Framework

TL;DR

DFINITY proposes to make the SNS topic “DAO community settings” critical and plans to vote early on the NNS proposal that publishes the respective new SNS governance version.

Background

Each SNS community can change the parameters of their DAO using proposals of type “manage nervous system parameters”. In some recent events, some DAO participants changed the parameters to gain the majority of the DAO’s voting power and then quickly adopted some critical proposals.

As a consequence, several community members requested that the proposals to change the DAO’s parameters should also be critical.

Proposed change

The governance team is working on introducing proposal topics for SNSs (see this forum thread for more context). At this point of the release process, all native proposals, which are part of the SNS framework, are already assigned to a topic. Moreover, the proposals’ criticality is now based on topics.

The proposal with the type “manage nervous system parameters” that changes an SNS DAO’s parameters is assigned to the topic “DAO community settings”.

To address the concern, we therefore propose to make the SNS proposal topic “DAO community settings” critical.

This has the effect that all proposal types in this topic are critical. This contains:

  • The proposals to change the SNS parameters
  • The proposals to change the SNS ledger’s parameters
  • The proposals to change the SNS metadata

It not only makes sense to keep all these types in the same topic as they conceptually relate to each other, but it is also justified for each of the types to be critical as the effect of changing leger parameters or doing a large rebranding of the DAO can also have critical implications.

Proposed release

DFINITY plans to submit a proposal with a new SNS governance version that defines the topic “DAO community settings” as critical today.

Due to multiple DAOs and community members expressing concerns about the current situation, we plan to vote on the proposal earlier than after the usual 3 days - most likely already tomorrow.

It would be nice to regain your reputation to rollback the BOOM DAO Heist and return the stolen ICPs to ICPSWAP.

IF you are soft Dfnity ICP Coin is going to zero . Roll it back and return the STOLEN ICPs and put this bad actors to jail!

Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt. He’s probably going to revert back all the nefarious actions he has taken in recent weeks to restore the SNS projects to their original state. That would be the ethical thing to do. It would be nice to see a complete reset of this SNS drain the swamp initiative where he can start over and do it right…community discussion, build support, execute a known plan. I hope he just wants to do the right thing.

I appreciate the sentiment, but I think we are past that point. Actions matter, and consequences are what change behavior, not shame or self-correction. Lots of staked investors have already been irreparably harmed.
