Hi everybody, I’m Chronarc!
Starting today I am going to use this thread to talk about my ideas thoughts and choices for season 7. In general I will:
Voting with Intention: I will prioritize fairness and proposals that align with the community’s long-term health and sustainability to the best of my knowledge, even if they may be against the grain.
Supporting Public Goods: Retroactive Public Goods Funding embodies Optimism’s mission to reward impactful contributions. This tool will remain a central focus of my decision-making.
Embracing Governance: The Working Constitution provides a flexible framework for adaptability. Any time I see the chance to improve the distribution of governance in a more efficient or productive manner, you can count on me.
Puts the Rules Where They Belong: Right now, a lot of important rules are enforced off-chain by the Optimism Foundation. This proposal locks them on-chain, where they can’t be ignored, forgotten, or changed on a whim. That’s just good governance.
Makes Deployments Foolproof: The OP Contracts Manager (OPCM) is basically a safety net for new chain deployments. It ensures everything follows the Standard Rollup Charter, so no one accidentally ‘accidentally’ cuts corners.
Prepares for the Next Big Step: The Superchain is growing fast. As more chains move to Stage 1, things need to be consistent and scalable. This upgrade makes sure we’re ready, rather than scrambling later.
No Disruption, Just Improvement: This isn’t some messy, breaking change. Existing chains stay as they are, no contracts or node software need updates, and there’s even a grace period for compliance. It’s a smooth transition with clear benefits.
Closes a Governance Gap: Some chains want to deploy before they’re added to the Superchain Registry, which is fine until it isn’t. This gives the Security Council the power to step in if needed, preventing governance headaches down the road.
Hi Chronarc, nice to meet you here.
I agree with the idea of “puts the rules where they belong”, cause I think this is the fundamental and very important for the future growth of good governance.
Regards
