Forgive me as I seek to understand, but it sounds like you are saying the current delegation to the largest voters are coming from another source? If that is the case, I guess it is interesting, but does not change the reality.
I’m saying that I have less than 10% of the GTC circulating supply - and I delegate all of it!
The reality is there is a great deal of room for improvement in terms of other stakeholders participating in governance. I obviously care about Gitcoin and its mission, having built it from scratch nearly 6(!) years ago and now focused on Supermodular and Greenpill and other regenerative projects with similar north stars - that’s exactly why I’ll continue to be transparent in my delegations. At the end of the day, I am just one node on the network (albeit an og one) - there is another ~90% of GTC out there by circulating supply (~95% by total supply) whose delegations could be updated.
my GTC is a single digit percentage of the circulating supply. so i have no ability to centralize governance.
Yes, this is an assumption on my part. My assumption is that the bulk of delegation to the 4-5-6 active voters who regularly make up the >50% of GTC votes is from you.
I’m not sure who the “4-5-6 active voters who regularly make up the >50% of GTC votes” are. According to Tally, the top 5 delegates have ~ 6.9m GTC in voting power from ~900 different addresses. (I don’t even delegate to all 5 of them though) Those 5 delegates, at ~6.9 GTC represent 900 addresses and about 10% of the circulating supply of GTC. And about ~30% of the voting supply.
If you want to see who I am delegating to or do the math on your own, I just posted my Q1 2023 delegations here.
