Voting Records
Governance participation is an important privilege of everyone with stake in the long-term success of Terra. Governance steers the most fundamental aspects of the blockchain ranging from which new stablecoins should be created to how to utilize community pool resources. Our view is the privilege of governance voting should be considered an obligation for validators. Validators have been entrusted by their delegates to represent their best interests in deciding the future of the Terra blockchain. Validators choosing not to participate in governance is akin to electors in a representative democracy choosing not to cast their electoral votes. It’s important to remember, in addition to voting for or against a proposal, abstain votes may also be cast. This means choosing not to submit a vote does not merely represent not having an opinion on a governance proposal, but an active decision not to participate in the voting process.
