      I am responding to the facts available to me and your Hot Take, which seemed to imply this as a possible direction for this project. I am writing this to explain the consequences of such an act, just in case you and others have not thought them through.

      Do you believe Ethereum as it exists enfranchises everyone in our community?

      I don't believe that's possible. But I think we could do way way better.

      I don’t see how this effort enfranchises anyone. Are devs being deprived of some right or privilege? Ethereum affords no one rights or privileges. What you’re talking about is the labor market.

      Replying to @cyber_hokie @lrettig and

      That’s like saying Linux (or the Linux Foundation) disenfranchises Linux devs because it can’t sustainably pay all devs who want to work on open source Linux. There is no social security here.

      This has nothing to do with rights or privilege. I don't equate enfranchisement with that or consider it a "right" but that doesn't make it unimportant or undesirable!

      I think our definitions of enfranchisement is here is what’s happening. I take it to mean equal access to rights or privileges (e.g. voting)

      I take it to mean something more like, knowledge or confidence that one's voice will be heard, or that one's needs will be considered

      It should be a right in a good, well governed system. A bit like due process.

      So it's a lot less like saying the Linux foundation should pay everyone who wants to work on Linux, and a lot more like saying all eligible citizens should have the right to vote

          If it’s not about the money, how would an AltETH help Ethereum solve these governance challenges? We already have plenty of ongoing governance experiments in the space which we all watch closely.

          Not nearly enough, in my opinion. Nearly all of them are at layer two. If nothing else, more experimentation in layer one governance would be invaluable.

          Why do you keep talking about voting? Please don’t tell me you’ve bought in to onchain plutocracy. People can influence ETH well beyond how rich they are.

          Have you seen any of the panels I've spoken on recently? I'm always the voice crying out against on-chain voting and plutocracy! :)
