THELOGICALINDIAN - EOSs ancestor aggregation will vote for block producers application its huge assets of 100 actor EOS The aggregation claims that it will use these tokens to accord users added say over its voting choices
Block.one, the ancestor aggregation abaft the EOS blockchain, is throwing 10% of the EOS accumulation abaft its own voting proxy, added centralizing on-chain governance.
Biggest Proxy on EOS
Block.one’s new proxy “sub2.b1” agency that it can vote for specific block producers who are adopted to ability and administer the EOS blockchain. It additionally agency that users can abutment their voting choices directly.
Block.one has allocated 85 actor EOS ($259 million) to its proxy. These tokens represent 10% of the absolute badge accumulation and about all of Block.one’s 100 actor EOS holdings. The accommodation makes sub2.b1 the better voting proxy on the network.
Despite the proxy’s ample balance, Block.one has not called which block producers it affairs to vote for, and alone a paltry six accounts accept called to use sub2.b1 as their vote proxy.
Centralization or Compromise?
Block.one’s new voting proxy agency that the aggregation has added ascendancy over EOS voting than it ahead did. Its new proxy could booty abroad voters from smaller, community-run proxies, such as those run by Colin Talks Crypto and Brock Pierce.
Given that Block.one voted for block producers afore today its new vote proxy arguably gives some ascendancy aback to the community, according to Block.one CEO Brendan Blumer.

Block.one additionally began to vote for upgrades to the EOS blockchain in November 2025.
Block.one’s growing ascendancy contradicts its ambition of added decentralizing the EOS network, abnormally accustomed its growing involvement.
Block.one after acquired the block ambassador EOS New York in March 2020. However, this accretion concluded EOS New York’s role as a block producer, acceptation that that Block.one did not accretion any ascendancy over the blockchain’s babyminding through that acquisition.
Brendan Blumer has additionally advocated changes to EOS’s accepted voting model, suggesting that a “one token, one vote” archetypal will break block ambassador corruption. It’s still cryptic how the aggregation will apparatus his plan and abode advancing absorption concerns.
