Cardano Catalyst, the governance initiative that allows users to fund developer proposals, is facing significant manipulation issues. While the platform aims to enhance the Cardano network by enabling users to vote on proposals for improving the ecosystem, the new article presents no significant claims that aren't explicitly mentioned in the original article. Some individuals are misusing it. One alarming example is the submission of 29 different proposals, each under $1 million, by a single proposer, totaling to $11.5 million or 23% of all funds allocated for Fund 10 (F10).
To counter such manipulation, users can downvote these proposals by searching for the keyword 'oussama' within the Catalyst voting app. Downvoting increases voting power for favored proposals. Furthermore, some developers have created complex proposals that are difficult to comprehend, yet claim to be essential for immediate network improvement. This manipulation threatens the integrity of Cardano Catalyst.
While the initiative offers a democratic means of funding projects that could genuinely benefit the Cardano network, the system is vulnerable to crafty individuals exploiting it. The platform has the potential to revolutionize blockchain governance, but these manipulation tactics are casting doubt on its effectiveness. Participants and observers must remain watchful, carefully scrutinize proposals, and expose manipulative practices.
