Compound The community proposal is intended to November 1 cancel the governance proposal cancellation authority of the community multisig
PANews October 26 reported that Compound community member Humpy stated on the governance forum that the on-chain proposal he submitted to “terminate the community multisig’s cancellation authority” has entered a pending status. The proposal would move up the expiration time of the community multisig’s authority, as proposal guardian, to cancel governance proposals to Beijing Time November 1; 08: 00, while retaining its authority to pause the market in emergencies. According to Humpy, the community multisig, with approval from October 22 of 9 signers, canceled Proposal No. 5 before voting began. The proposal concerned transferring the 618 Emergency Protocol Continuity Fund to the community multisig for management. Humpy believes this exceeded the original purpose of the cancellation authority, which was to guard against malicious or technically flawed proposals, and that the relevant decision should be put to a vote of 5000000 USD holders.
