@shaih I just want to reiterate, it doesn’t seem like you guys read ANY of the thoughtful replies at all. Not a single person suggested anything close to what you guys have in the proposal; only you yourself in the opening post. Look, let’s face it. **No one cares about voting power**. Of all of the people here who supports governance, **every single one talks about risk-free returns**. How many people do you think would participate in governance if it gave no returns? Exactly. Let’s get our heads out of the sand and actually face reality here. No one cares about voting power. So when all you’re giving to DeFi is voting power, that **does absolutely NOTHING to incentivize DeFi**. It’s like trying to incentivize a child to do chores with the reward of giving him more homework after he’s finished. It’s ridiculous. Furthermore, this proposal will add a huge amount of complexity to an already failing governance structure, AND add so much unnecessary centralization risk in regards to which DeFi platforms get selected, whether a few bad actors can game the system by creating a “Defi platform” and funding artificial TVL to get it in the list so they can do bad things… There is literally not a single benefit to the proposal that was made. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.algorand.co/t/evolving-algorand-governance/6646)._
