We will vote against this proposal because moving all multisig authority to the Foundation concentrates decision‐making power in one place and removes the transparent, community‐driven cost structure that MSS signers provided, making it harder for delegates to verify administrative expenses and adds unnecessary complexity, risks payment delays, and requires extra governance approvals instead of allowing OpCo to assume these duties seamlessly from the start.
