The following reflects the views of the Lampros DAO governance team, composed of Chain_L (@Blueweb) and @Euphoria, based on our combined research, analysis, and ideation.

We are voting FOR this proposal in the Tally voting.

The current 5% quorum is tough to reach with today’s voter turnout and larger ARB supply. Dropping it slightly to 4.5% keeps constitutional proposals from getting stuck for no good reason.

We see this as a simple, safe fix that costs nothing and avoids governance deadlock. As mentioned before, we prefer a clear review after a specific time, be it six months, so this does not stay fixed forever.

While this helps for now, the main goal should still be to improve turnout so higher quorums are easy to meet in future votes.

I will be voting FOR this proposal on Tally once more per the reasoning described in my previous post.

[Tane]

We vote for this proposal, keeping our stance from the snapshot vote.

We see and agree with this as a temporary solution, and believe the need for more fundamental solution for higher and broader voter participation.

I voted FOR on this proposal on Tally. The reasoning remains the same.

Voting FOR

As mentioned in a previous comment, lowering the threshold doesn’t mean we’re giving up on engagement, it just means we’re not wasting valuable contributor time on cat herding votes when that energy could be spent on more impactful work.

The following reflects the views of L2BEAT’s governance team, composed of @krst, @Sinkas, and @Manugotsuka, and it’s based on their combined research, fact-checking, and ideation.

We are voting FOR the proposal.

We previously supported the proposal during the temp check vote, and we also expressed our views on alternative solutions. The proposal hasn’t changed, and neither has our stance.

After confirming that the proposal’s calldata only introduces a 0.5% reduction in quorum and nothing else, we cast our vote in favor.

As in @web3citizenxyz representation, voting in favor. Below the rationale:

Tally: Constitutional Quorum Threshold Reduction We’re voting in favor. No further discussion in the last month has changed our rationale since Snapshot. See below our previous reasoning. Reducing the quorum is the simplest solution at the moment to guarantee a better viability for governance of the protocol. Hopefully we can work towards a better, and stable solution in the long term.
