Cardano Foundation Updates Delegation Strategy

The biggest challenge facing Web3 may be the reliance on Web2 media platforms. We expect any legitimate business to stand by its products. If an Amazon shipment goes missing, Amazon will replace the order at no cost to the customer. If a restaurant accidentally serves a salad with a fly in the dressing, then we would expect the salad to be replaced at no cost to the customer, and perhaps the whole meal would be complimentary. Businesses show their willingness to take responsibility for their mi…

Feedback/question on part of the CARDANO BLOCKCHAIN ECOSYSTEM INTERIM CONSTITUTION

No. 33 and related comments above highlight one of the major limitations of CIP-1694 governance. Problems arise from stating that “all members of the Cardano community are expected to abide by this Interim Constitution.” The statement entrenches that the constitution and governance model aim to reduce the number of different voices within the ecosystem, which is a step backwards rather than forwards. Also, there is no way of enforcing how any community member(s) do or do not abide by the constit…

Feedback needed: DRep Code of Conduct

My suggestion for this document would be to focus on expressing human values that Cardano and DReps stand for rather than attempting to list all behaviours that DReps should be against. The Cardano interim constitution has a problem of confusing human values and numerical values. Here are a couple of prominent current examples of consequences in the Web3 space of consistently ignoring human values on a significant scale: https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-seeks-36-months-jail-binance-founder-zh…

Argument For Expression of Human Values in the Cardano Constitution

In summary, the Cardano Interim Constitution, after reviewing CIP-1694 in non-technical terms, is a rambling expression of interrelated parameters and numerical values conceived for the administration of Cardano governance. The current post aims to present briefly only one of potentially many arguments indicating a need to articulate human values in the Cardano Constitution for the long-term stability of the Cardano ecosystem. Originally, Cardano aimed to bank the unbanked—undeniably a human a…

Constitution

In response to the suggestion in the Draft Constitution that some Delegated Representatives (DReps) may be script-based as part of minimum viable governance, I messaged ChatGPT to write a constitution for the cardano blockchain cardano-improvement-proposals/constitution/AIConstitution.md at main · paradoxicalsphere/cardano-improvement-proposals · GitHub

Human Interoperability Metadata Standards and Ecosystem Maps: Do we need a set of metadata standards and definitions for defining ecosystem roles, relationships and sectors?

Hi, I believe that any solution must acknowledge Dunbar’s number (Dunbar's number - Wikipedia). Maybe the diversity is not a problem to solve, but a strength. Also, I would consider that in the age of Voltaire, a Social Justice category is missing from the ecosystem map. To add emphasis to the concern, after attending a Constitutional Workshop I have written a reply to the Draft Constitution about what is missing cardano-improvement-proposals/constitution/AIConstitution.md at main · paradoxica…

Announcing the stake pools chosen for November 2024

Like so much current development in Cardano, the CF delegation strategy operates without clarity on the difference between numerical values and human values. The result is an effort that claims to benefit the interests of the ecosystem while actually behaving in a self-interested way, fueling the resentment expressed by many community members here. Focussing on encouraging more development in the Cardano ecosystem will not lead to mass adoption because most people in the world do not make decis…
