For what exactly?
- That the funds were given to IOG and CF (and Emurgo) more or less unconditionally?
https://cardano.org/genesis/#distribution - That they decide relatively freely what they do with them?
- Well, CF just announces what they decided (but asks for non-binding feedback quite openly):
https://forum.cardano.org/t/cardano-foundations-new-delegation-methodology-supporting-the-architects-of-the-future/79594 - IOG doesn’t really do these delegations to support stake pools anymore:

When they moved all of their funds to (it seems) Coinbase Custody, there were some discussions about the transparency of that move and the position that they are just a company and their finances are not really our business got quite a lot of support:

- Well, CF just announces what they decided (but asks for non-binding feedback quite openly):
- That the delegation of funds owned by particular organisations are not meant to be the topic of CIPs?
CIPs are supposed to be about “the Cardano network, its processes, or environment” according to https://github.com/cardano-foundation/CIPs/tree/master/CIP-0001#abstract. Seems nobody has written explicitly that this does not include deciding about the wallets of specific entities. I can only try the comparison that I would never want a CIP to tell me whom I should give the decision about my stake pool delegation to.
