EOS: CTO Dan Larimer Proposes to Scrap Constitution and Start Over

THELOGICALINDIAN - Just a few abbreviate weeks afterwards the longawaited EOS barrage its Chief Technical Officer CTO Dan Larimer now wants to change its axiological architecture and alter it with a new one

Dan Larimer, architect and CTO at EOS, is proposing the abatement of the accepted architecture of the activity and replacing it with a new one according to a chat captivated on the EOSGov Telegram channel.

“Am I actual in compassionate you’re proposing abatement of the absolute accepted constitution, and replacing it with one that alone refers to arbs actuality able to aphorism on cipher VS absorbed and cipher vulnerabilities / hacks like DAO?” one affiliate of the accumulation asked Larimer, who replied “Yes.”

The account bent the absorption of Dogecoin creator, Jackson Palmer, who wrote:

Arguments were fabricated that the accepted architecture vests too abundant ability at the easily of arbitrators. As it currently stands, it requires all acute affairs on the arrangement to be “documented with a Ricardian Arrangement advertence the absorbed of all parties and allotment the Arbitration Forum that will boldness disputes arising from that contract.”

In added words, arbitrators are able of absolute disputes anon and the admeasurement of their ascendancy is not defined, which borders law-enforcement. Hence, the angle is to change the absolute architecture and alone absolute their ascendancy appear cardinal on issues stemming from differences amid cipher and intent, and to administration cipher vulnerabilities and hacks.

Twitter personality WhalePanda likened the Arbitration Forum angle to the Ethereum Foundation admitting added centralized.

However, unless Larimer decides to annul the accomplished law of the activity on his own, about committing a aldermanic suicide, he’d accept to chase the procedures set alternating in the architecture itself. Failing to do so would not alone be anti-constitutional, but would additionally affirm that the activity is centralized.

As there is no article which handles a book of the kind, the abutting we get is Article XIII of the constitution, which says:

Put simply, changing, any article of the constitution, appropriately replacing it with a new one, would crave a quorum of 15% of badge holders. Those who abutment Larimer’s hypothesis accept to be 10% added than those who don’t, and they’d accept to advance this advance for 30 connected canicule within a 120 day period.

In added words, should his hypothesis be brought advanced appropriate now, the eventually this architecture can be replaced is 120 canicule afterwards affair the aloft conditions.

If history is any indicator, this could be a lot easier said than done. It took EOS two weeks to get 15% of the votes for their Block Producers, and there are no added altitude there, clashing the ones that accept to be advised in a abeyant vote for a new constitution.
