Pacman: The goal of the Blast governance mechanism is to allow the community to intervene when necessary to form a system of checks and balances
On July 4th, Blur and Blast co-creator Pac man posted on social media that I think the Blast governance mechanism is currently seriously misunderstood. The goal is not to actively involve the community in governance (which will not work), but to enable the community to intervene when governance goes astray by vetoing proposals and replacing Progress Council. This is a system of checks and balances, and the community is expected to have little need for intervention. Business development and incentives will continue to be driven by the foundation team.
