RE: The DAO will not be DOA, but that doesn’t make it a good investment

in #crypto-news8 years ago

It also unwinds most of the argument for decentralization. Effectively, people are minority partners with the DAO whales. It also highlights that most of what was invested as paper profits of ETH whales and not true outside investment from a real crowd funding campaign.

Sort:  

I think having more than 1800+ voting members qualify's as decentralized. I also don't necessarily think having my interest aligned with someone, as awhale is a bad thing. Warren Buffet comes to mind, if they have that amount of money, and are investing in this space. You could say that level of astuteness, acumen,due diligence whatever you want to call it is needed for this VC type project . The old phrase birds of a feather hang together. Want to be a millionaire hang with one, or follow the money.

The top 50 individual wallets (could be fewer individuals or groups) hold almost 40%. It remains to be seen what voting patterns emerge in practice but if those 50 tend to vote as a bloc that is nearly 100% voting power.
