Shytoshi Kusama publishes important SHIB DAO message
As reported by U.Today earlier, over the weekend, the enigmatic leader of the Shiba Inu team published an important message underscoring the important role of LEASH holders in the SHIB DAO, which is about to be integrated on Shibarium.
Kusama stressed that LEASH holders will serve as a class of moderators who will “keep order, protect the system.” Besides, they will get an opportunity to vote on disputes in the DAO.
According to a tweet published by another top SHIB team member, Lucie, BONE and SHIB holders will also have the power of voting in the decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), which is being prepared to launch.
By voting with their tokens, owners of SHIB will be able to participate in decisions to do with charity and promoting the SHIB community’s values. BONE holders will be entitled to have a say in decisions to do with advancing blockchain knowledge and innovation (Education and Research Council) and shaping the development of the SHIB ecosystem (Technology Council).
Lucie published her tweet reacting to the arrest of the Telegram and TON coin founder Pavel Durov in Paris over the weekend. She stressed that this action was an attack against the cryptocurrency space and free speech.
