The following reflects the views of L2BEAT’s governance team, composed of @kaereste and @Sinkas, and it’s based on the combined research, fact-checking, and ideation of the two.
We’re voting AGAINST this proposal.
The main reason we’re voting against has to do with the timing of the proposal, rather than the idea itself.
When the airdrop happened in May, there wasn’t a time window specified during which eligible participants could claim the airdrop. While we believe we shouldn’t keep these tokens allocated in perpetuity as some people might never claim, we also believe that 5 months is a relatively short timeframe to introduce such a change.
Allowing eligible participants to claim their airdrop could potentially increase the number of active participants in Lisk’s ecosystem and DAO, whereas redistributing would only benefit existing users.
Lastly, as the contract shows, people are still claiming their airdrop daily.
