Town Hall
summary
Panel answers outline why a US 501(c)(3) legal limit prevents the foundation or Bootstrap from making coinholder votes binding, and why token-weighted governance (“one token one vote is a corporation”) is rejected as a default. Coinholders already hold a threat of exit—selling ZEC can shrink the security budget—but that’s not a substitute for on-chain authority. Proposals cover independent orgs funded by consensus-rule issuance, experiments with coinholder signaling, urgent wallet/back-end fixes for transaction spam, and adding off-chain programmability verified by zk proofs.
