HIP: 84
title: Abandon protocol split and move forward
author: drlorente97.eth
status: Phase 1
created: 2023-07-04
replaces: 74, 63, 50

Simple Summary

This proposal seeks to repeal HIP-74, HIP-50 and HIP-63 in order to reinstate the proper functioning of the DAO.

Abstract

This proposal seeks to repeal HIP-74, which at this time has not yet been implemented. It is also decided to repeal HIP-50 and HIP-63, which contributed to the governance blockage that led to a situation of ungovernability in the DAO and its subsequent division.

It is proposed to abandon the splitting of the DAO, the protocol and the treasury. It is also proposed to subsequently bring to a future vote the implementation of the v2 version of the protocol since this was contemplated in one of the proposals to be repealed. It is also contemplated that the funds received from the donation of the Gitcoin funding round to OpenPoH shall be returned to the Governor.

Motivation

Given that it has been 8 months since the approval of HIP-74 which established an organized process for the division of the DAO and the protocol and treasury and it has not yet been implemented. Taking into account that the problems that led to its approval are now non-existent and that there is no evidence of the existence of a project for the creation of "Open Proof of Humanity", it is necessary to move forward.

In order to move forward, it is also necessary to remove the obstacles that contributed to the ungovernable situation in the DAO. In this case, the existence of "official groups" and the formula of quadratic delegations which only caused that part of the votes of the registered humans were not taken into account, contributing an effective blockage to the governance.

Specification

Approval of this proposal in Phase 3 will result in the following:

• Repeal of HIP-74: A Peaceful Fork effective immediately.
• Repeal of HIP-63: Quadratic Delegations on the DAO Snapshot effective immediately.
• Repeal of HIP-50: Clarify which of Proof of Humanity Telegram group belongs to the DAO effective immediately.
• Funds raised from the Gitcoin funding round for OpenPoH directed to address 0x2AF4125c8fE208a349ef78d3cb980308ab1Ed34f shall be returned to the Governor address 0x327a29fce0a6490e4236240be176daa282eccfdf
• A proposal to migrate to a v2 version of the protocol shall be made in the future.
