Enjoyed this piece on @decredproject's "conservatives" and "progressives." Funny to see different parties emerging in our digital collectives, just like the meatspace... github.com/monsieurbulb/f…

2/ As with any community, there are varying viewpoints re: $DCR's best uses and the way to spend the network's treasury towards those desired ends.

3/ The "conservatives" are largely in control and rolling out a plan for $DCR to progress from SoV to MoE and then to UoA.

The "progressives" want more experimentation with the beautiful Decred machinery they've fallen in love with.

4/ Some keys to staying cohesive are a mechanism to discuss and decide on the most effective paths forward, which @decredproject has in Politeia, as well as general civility that avoids dismissing any stakeholder group.

5/ In the latter case, #Decred is better than the average #crypto community I come across, but still has occasional civility and dismissiveness slips... then again, so does every (Internet) community that I can think of.

All problems are people problems :)
