At this event on Feb 18th, we will aim to take CIP 1694, throw it against a wall and see in which pieces it falls apart and which specific open questions may appear. The Session will start with a general discussion in the main room and may eventually break off into several breakout rooms to focus on specific items and topics around CIP 1694 The Goal is to identify major areas of CIP 1694 which require community thoughts and perspectives and further attention to ensure an effective roll out and implementation of CIP 1694. Please come prepared to the Session and read carefully through CIP 1694 - [CIPs/README.md at voltaire-v1 · JaredCorduan/CIPs · GitHub](https://github.com/JaredCorduan/CIPs/blob/voltaire-v1/CIP-1694/README.md) Join us on Saturday, February 8th at 17.00 UTC Live on Zoom via: [Launch Meeting - Zoom](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85143238408) You can also get some additional perspectives from these videos: - ( Army of Spies ) [Cardano (ADA) & Voltaire | Cardano Rumor Rundown #502 - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpWFZYgmiAg) - ( Jspeak ) [CARDANO'S PLAN TO GET FULLY DECENTRALIZED DEEP DIVE! | CIP 1694 & VOLTAIRE - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXM1Pxd0hgQ) - ( QA DAO ) [CIP 1694 - An On-Chain Decentralized Governance Mechanism for Voltaire - Summary & Overview - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fe9XvezpdbI) And some great recaps & thoughts on the Cardano Forum: - [CIP-1694 Breakdown: Distinct Groups Responsible For Ratifying The Governance Actions](https://forum.cardano.org/t/cip-1694-breakdown-distinct-groups-responsible-for-ratifying-the-governance-actions/113178) - [CIP-1694 Breakdown: Governance Actions](https://forum.cardano.org/t/cip-1694-breakdown-governance-actions/113177) - [What is CIP 1694?](https://forum.cardano.org/t/what-is-cip-1694/111621) ---
