I honestly have been trying to force transparency for years and this huge control over voting has always been a problem but now instead of appeasing the previous larger holder it is now you.
Removing jeffery because you think he is Eric's pal is not something I can agree with. He works for pivx not eric. If he spoke more to eric it was probably mn votes he needed.
You have forced more transparency now use that momentum to change pivx and get the discussions going for what you think a mn owner would like to see. I would like to see more, I put thrse sort of touchy subjects in discord and got banned multiple times, still no unblocks. Multiple people have been pushed out for questioning "the team" some of which eventually did get voted out and they left or stepped back abit.
You have forced something I have been trying for years but now is not the time to remove people especially jeffery who works for peanuts and has been giving you any answers you wanted here.
Dont message him on telegram I struggle to get replies on there so keep it open on this forum then people can see if they are actually answering what mn owners want.
Thank you for your honesty and for sharing that background. It validates what many of us have seen from the outside for a very long time.
Let me be entirely clear: I have zero intention of purging or removing anyone. In fact, I believe it is long overdue to welcome back and re-engage the talented contributors who were pushed out, silenced, or banned under that past atmosphere.
I acknowledge Jeffrey's dedication. I have respected his work and I have never had any desire to harm him or create an operational vacuum. My stance was never personal against Jeffrey. But the era of Eric's gatekeeping and intimidation had to end. Sidelining contributors on baseless claims, hollowing out community initiatives, and forcing people into subservience just to get basic funding was toxic for PIVX.
Thank you for bringing these points to light. Let us put the hostility behind us and move forward together with transparency.
Starting from the next funding cycle, we intend to step back and act as watchful observers rather than exercising heavy voting power. We have thoroughly mapped and audited the network; all the backroom wallets, clusters, and movements are fully visible to our systems. While we may not attach a personal name to every address, we have complete architectural visibility over the blockchain.
Since we firmly believe that no single entity should unilaterally dictate the direction of this DAO, we will practice what we preach. We will let the community govern and steer proposals organically, and our voting weight will only ever be deployed if a critical need or threat to the ecosystem arises.
Let us build, bring people back, and restore PIVX to its rightful place.
