community-weighted-voting-and-proof-of-personhoodHumans are humans… We all see where prediction markets are heading, so yeah, I agree Futarchy is entering utopian territory at this point.
On anonymous voting, I agree too. There’s a reason most modern democratic constitutions protect secret ballots as a core principle.
On Proof of Personhood: what’s the right balance between UX simplicity, privacy, and actual human-vs-agent guarantees? I like Human Passport, already used by Giveth, TheDAO. Feels lightweight while still useful. Curious if anyone has better alternatives though.
On the first two questions:
1. I don’t think “tyranny of the majority” becomes an issue in a community-weighted voting system. Wallets can still hold multiple Nouns = multiple votes. But right now, if I’m supported by 20 nouners holding 2 Nouns each, but opposed by 2 nouners holding 25 Nouns each, it feels weird to say “the DAO rejected the prop”.
Now imagine a system where 5 voters gives a x1.5 multiplier, 10 voters x2, and so on. That could counterbalance the plutocratic degeneration of the DAO without going full 1 person = 1 vote, which is really the only setup where an actual “tyranny of the majority” scenario emerges.
2. It’s important to prevent a single person from managing multiple wallets, distributing their Nouns across them, and effectively gaming the community-weighted voting mechanism. So you need 1 human = 1 wallet.
