Hey everyone,
I’ve been reading up on different governance models and came across the concept of liquid democracy. I think it could be interesting to discuss whether something like this might work for our voting system here. For those unfamiliar, liquid democracy allows participants to either vote directly on issues or delegate their voting power to someone they trust. This delegation can be issue-specific or time-limited, offering a balance between direct and representative democracy.
One of the main benefits is flexibility. Not everyone has time to vote on every proposal, but with liquid democracy, you can stay engaged by delegating to someone more active or knowledgeable. Plus, delegations can be changed at any time, which keeps representatives accountable. I wonder if this system could make governance in Unit0 more dynamic and better reflect the views of the broader community. Of course, there are challenges too, like ensuring transparency and preventing power centralization. I’d love to hear what others think about this. Would liquid democracy make sense here? Have any similar projects implemented it successfully? Let’s discuss whether this could be a valuable addition or if we’re better off sticking with what we have.
