TRON DAO Reserve, which purports to control the so-called reserves for the so-called decentralized stablecoin USDD, has no decentralized autonomous group (DAO).
Traditionally, there was a governance portal that has allowed customers to vote on USDD modifications, however unusually, it has solely been used as soon as within the several-year-long historical past of the protocol. The web page for these votes has since been taken down.
Though this governance capability appears to have been eliminated, the documentation for USDD nonetheless overtly claims that “the governance framework of the USDD ecosystem is designed to be community-driven and decentralized.”
It goes even additional, claiming that “governance empowers stakeholders to make critical decisions regarding the protocol’s future.”
Elsewhere on the USDD web site, the venture claims that “USDD is governed by a decentralized community where users actively participate in the protocol’s decision-making process.” On the entrance web page, it additionally proclaims that it has “Decentralized Governance” and insists that it’s “constantly evolving through community proposals and voting.”
Nonetheless, traditionally, USDD has not been ruled by a decentralized group. The launch of USDD 2.0 was determined with out the enter of the group. The elimination of bitcoin from the collateral for USDD and the elimination of the governance portal for USDD had been determined with out group enter.
Just one vote has ever been held, and that vote was to authorize “burned” funds for use by the venture. This means that apart from not understanding what a DAO is, the venture doesn’t perceive what “burned” means.
It’s not clear why USDD is misrepresenting TRON DAO Reserve as a DAO and falsely claiming decentralized governance.
