1. Treasury Tax Proposal Sparks Divided Opinions
A recent proposal by Cardano developer Andrew Westberg to cut the on-chain treasury tax from 20% to 10% has ignited controversy
Some argue this would boost staking incentives and short-term growth. But critics like ecosystem voice Husky Token warn it could jeopardize long-term economic sustainability, stating:
“I am voting NO on decreasing the Treasury Tax from 20% to 10% because it undermines Cardano’s long-term economic sustainability without sufficient data to justify the change.”
