Cardano Governance Update: Voting for Interim Constitutional Committee

Voting Process

The voting for the Interim Constitutional Committee (ICC) began on June 13th and will run until June 23rd. ADA holders can select three new members for the ICC through the Summon Platform. The ICC will play a key role in upholding the interim constitution during the upcoming Chang hard fork.

Criticism of Voting Process

Pi Lanningham, CTO of Sundae Labs, has expressed concerns about the non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) surrounding the draft constitution. He believes that the NDAs are preventing open discussion and fueling conspiracy theories.

Hoskinson’s Response

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has indicated that the comprehensive governance package, including the fork-ready candidate node, guardrail contract, and interim constitution, will likely be released soon.

Chang Hard Fork and the ICC

The Cardano Constitution is an off-chain document that outlines the core values and long-term sustainability of the blockchain. The ICC will act as a guardian of the constitution, ensuring that governance actions align with its mandates.

Community Dynamics

The Chang hard fork and the ongoing governance model are critical developments for the Cardano community. The outcomes of the current voting and the integration of the interim constitution will have a significant impact on the blockchain’s future.
