There has been a lot of misinformation about ENS and the ENS DAO out there, so I wanted to clear some things up. The biggest issue with how DAOs were designed and launched in 2021 has always been the token-weight / delegated token weighting design. Under this kind of design,

Finally took the time to read the entire ens proposal and all 37 comments too And holy moly is it bad sad to announce that ens has gone full corpo, since they are transferring 100 million in eth/stables & 250 million in ENS out of token holder control & into foundation

Given the circulating supply of ENS is close to half the total, nick actually has ~6%. ~14% if you consider labs wallet could vote w him (idk) So, if 15% show up to delegate, we can escape a single EOA making decisions over the ENS protocol 1,5% > 15%, one more 10x.

There has been a lot of misinformation about ENS and the ENS DAO .... ... so let me proceed to write a big wall of text and disallow comments All in an attempt to explain why we want to kill the ENS DAO and its community, take its funds and bring all of ENS development to ENS

COO of ENS on DAOs: - Token-weighted governance is decentralization theatre. - Running a team and allocating capital by popular vote is too slow and too easy to capture - 'Circular funding influence': Token-weighted allocation is vulnerable to self-dealing insiders and

When all is said and done I’m still bullish on ENS

Alex Van de Sande (avsa.eth) @avsa · 2026-06-25T11:18:29+00:00

This is true. ENS’s governance crisis can be framed not as “Nick having too much” but also as “Nobody else caring enough”. He didn’t start with an absurd amount. The DAO started with half of all tokens, the remaining half was airdropped and less than half of the remainder after

All these clarifications about what the treasury is and what the token actually represents should have come before the TGE. Otherwise, some folks may have misunderstood for years what they were trading on the open market.

i agree with all except moving funds offchain to the foundation bank account ENS token price is backed by the value of the treasury, so it can be pegged to NAV. im concerned about security of the protocol if that compact breaks let foundation make annual budget proposal to DAO

And about things like this: we don't need a new ENS. The protocol is solid, the product is strong, and the teams building around it are doing great work. It's an open protocol: share your ideas, suggest improvements, build on top of it. If you're looking for ways to

jay @0xMummy · 2026-06-25T20:07:13+00:00

My thoughts on ENS situation. This goes for most DAOs where the people in charge care more about milking the treasury for themselves than creating more value. @luigidemeo taught me about ‘tragedy of the commons’ during the rchain days and it still holds true for so many things

there is no such thing as bad publicity, long live ENS

Exactly. You can't put the genie back in the bottle and take it all back now. Or ... technically they can and this will kill ENS in the process. Most probably get it forked by the community.

This might be unpopular but I always said the dao was inefficient and ripe for bad behaviour. Decentralisation for the sake of decentralisation is not good in itself. Not everything needs decentralisation. If ENS never did an airdrop and Labs was just pushing updates, no one

Lefteris Karapetsas @LefterisJP · 2026-06-25T06:01:33+00:00

and what's worse a captured DAO in ENS allows things like modifying the ENS Universal router and changing what address a name resolves to. It's a lfie or death situation for ENS as a protocol too
